Hard Techno

Modular music is produced by synthesizers composed of separate modules for different functions. The modules can be connected together by the user to create a patch. The outputs from the modules may include audio signals, analog control voltages, or digital signals for logic or timing conditions.

The first modular synthesizer was developed in the late 1950s, when the introduction of the Moog synthesizer and the Buchla Modular Electronic Music System crop up in the same period. 

Today the modular models offer range of complete systems some of which have been used by the producer to create this breathtaking collection.

We are happy to welcome techno legend Truncate to our Originals series! Los Angeles-based producer gives you access to a high-octane collection of sounds and loops from his hardware-heavy studio setup. Loaded with full beats, hard drums loops, mind-bending synth and bass sequences, sci-fi textures, heavy kick loops, drum machine one-shots, modular SFX and more, this pack is a must-have for any modern-day techno producer.

After being introduced to electronic music back in the early 90's in Los Angeles, a teenage David Flores was hooked. He started DJing across Southern California on the DIY warehouses, desert, and rave circuit. His style then was as varied as the local scene - a myriad of sounds ranging from house to acid to techno to hardcore. After a few years solely DJing, he began releasing original music under the moniker Audio Injection, which landed on labels such as Monoid, Stimulus, 4 Track & LA label Droid Recordings. His association with Droid Behavior began in 2003 and continues today as a resident at the infamous and internationally acclaimed Interface event series alongside Drumcell and Raiz. 

In early 2011, he started the project Truncate to focus on the deeper, raw side of techno. His Truncate releases have been gained critical acclaim from world-class underground talent such as Modeselektor, Ben Klock, Marcel Dettmann, Chris Liebing, Speedy J, DVS1, Luke Slater, Ben Sims, Josh Wink, Eats Everything, Joris Voorn, and many more. Since then, he has provided remixes for artists across the musical spectrum, including Kink! for Pets Recordings, Slam for Soma, Trus’me for Prime Numbers, and Josh Wink for Boyznoise. He has also released original tracks on 50 Weapons and on Ultramajic as a collaboration with Jimmy Edgar, with upcoming works due on Blueprint Recordings and of course Truncate. 

Loops in this pack play between 130 bpm - 155 bpm. All loops are bpm labeled. All Synth and Bass sounds are also key-labeled.
