Balkan Pop Vol. 2 (WAV + MIDI) (Sample Pack / Loop Kits)

Purchase: https://shop.lazura.art/b/balkan-house

Introducing "Balkan House Melodies" – our first sample pack crafted specifically for dance and house music producers who want to infuse their tracks with the energetic, celebratory spirit of Balkan music. This unique collection merges the rich tradition of Balkan brass music - featuring the sounds of trumpets, saxophones, tubas, and other brass instruments - with the driving rhythms and grooves of house music.

Often referred to as "fanfare," this lively style is a hallmark of celebrations, parades and festivals across the Balkans, including Serbia, North Macedonia, Bulgaria, Romania, and Montenegro. It’s defined the unmistakable festive atmosphere that will bring life to your productions.

As always with our sample packs, the melodies take center stage - designed to spark inspiration and fuel your creativity. And to provide maximum flexibility, we’ve included both dry and wet WAV loops alongside their corresponding MIDI files, giving you complete control to adapt, tweak, or build upon these ideas to suit your tracks.

The melodies are composed predominantly in the Harmonic Minor scale and Phrygian Dominant mode, with occasional use of the Natural Minor scale and Phrygian mode. These tonalities are essential to the signature Balkan sound, offering an exotic, emotional, and dramatic quality.

As I promised many of you - the new Balkan MIDI Pack, Vol. 3 has just arrived! This sample pack series was inspired by artists and music from my home region, the Balkans, including countries such as Albania, Romania, Serbia, Bulgaria, Turkey, Bosnia and beyond.

This time, I’ve taken a slightly different approach. Instead of offering random standalone lead melodies, I wanted to provide more developed musical ideas (a bit similar to my Balkan Pop series). So, many of the melodies are accompanied by matching chord progressions or background elements like drones and pads, while still keeping the solo instrument versions available for flexibility.

While the main focus is on the MIDI files (it is a MIDI pack, after all), I’ve once again included WAV loops. Some of you might prefer to drop a melody straight into your project, resample it, or simply use the WAVs as a quick way to preview ideas. Even if you plan to use the MIDI and swap out the instruments, browsing through the WAVs can help you get a feel for what might suit the melody best - maybe a flute, or perhaps a synth.

Overall, Balkan MIDI Pack, Vol. 3 includes around 60 lead melodies (60 MIDI files and 131 WAV files featuring full compositions, alternate versions, and solo instrument layers), 66 chord progressions (66 MIDI files, 60 WAV files, and 47 dry versions), and 20 bassline loops - each provided in both MIDI and WAV formats, and a few bonus loops. A total of 409 files, almost twice as much as the previous release!

Our "Kocek Party" series is the first of it's kind and perhaps the only one on the market! Created for music producers who love the explore new exotic and less popular genres in the west. Koçek is a traditional music and dance style originating in the Ottoman Empire, particularly associated with Romani (Gypsy) communities in Turkey and the Balkans, and has had a huge influence on popular music in the region—including modern styles like Tallava and Bulgarian Chalga (also known as Pop-Folk).

"Kocek Party Vol. 2" brings 5 brand new construction kits (idea starters), delivered as both full stems and loopable WAV loops (dry and wet). And of course, as always, you’ll get MIDI files included so you can stay as flexible as possible.

The only authentic Balkan MIDI pack on the market! Alongside the premium Balkan MIDI Pack series, I also release FREE complimentary collections packed with even more original content - the Free Balkan MIDI Pack. This is the third installment in the series.

You’ve probably noticed that Lazura Music has a growing catalog of freebies - and I put just as much effort into those as I do the premium sample packs. I release them as a thank-you to everyone who has supported my work, and also to inspire producers to try out a new sound and explore the music of my home region: the Balkans.

Free Balkan MIDI Pack Vol. 3 includes 38 brand-new MIDI files - a mix of melodies and chord progressions - along with audio loops created using those same MIDIs. Some of you may prefer working with WAV loops, or simply use them as a demo to the MIDI to get a clearer sense of the intended instrumentation. But that’s not all: this time DRY versions of the loops are included as well, giving you full flexibility to add your own effects, EQ, and compression - or to modify the MIDI files by changing the instrument or even the melody itself. Not many loop kits or sample packs - especially free ones - offer this level of versatility and flexibility.

I hope this pack inspires you to create even more great music. Of course, all files are 100% royalty-free - you're free to use them in your own songs, beats for sale, or any commercial project without ever needing to make additional payments. Of course, if any of my melodies end up in a major release, a credit would be greatly appreciated!

Inspired by both modern-day and 90s Balkan music, this massive collection has everything you need to create Balkan, Oriental, or Slavic-inspired beats.

Volume 2 brings an impressive set of one-shot samples: kicks, snares, claps, hi-hats, percussion hits, FX, and more. But I have also crafted 200+ drum, percussion, hi-hat loops, and drum fills - covering a wide range of time signatures like 4/4, 2/4, 3/4, 5/8, 9/8, 7/8, and 10/8.

This kind of rhythmic variety is something you rarely, if ever, find in a single sample pack. The vast majority of music we enjoy is in even time signatures like 4/4, so one way to stand out from the crowd as a producer is to break away from the "standards" and experiment.

And that’s not all! These samples are a perfect addition to your sound library if you work across different genres - not just Balkan styles like Tallava and Manele, but also pop, dance, trap, afro-beats, hip-hop, Latin/reggaeton, and more.

I hope you enjoy this pack and feel inspired to experiment in a new direction and create even more great and truly unique music! Here is a list of the full content:

227 LOOPS

50 full drum loops (in various time signitures from 4/4 to 3/4, 7/8, 9/8 and beyond)
12 cinematic / intro drum loops
104 percussion loops (in various time signitures)
61 hi-hats only loops (in various time signitures)

1 785 ONE-SHOT SAMPLES

136 drum fills (various time sigunitures: 4/4, 5/8, 9/8, 3/4, 10/8, 6/8, 7/8)
196 kicks (various styles: Turkish-inspired, stomps, soft, Bulgarian-inspired, accoustic and more)
142 snares (various styles: VHS retro, accoustic, Turkish-inspired and more)
134 claps (various styles: dance, pop, hand claps, spiritual/experimental, stomps, VHS and more)

281 FX samples (risers, sweeps, reversed vocal builds, percussion fx, uplifters, downlifters, wind/noise and more)

HOW WAS THIS SAMPLE PACK MADE

Since I often receive questions about how I create my sounds - and I do understand the concerns many producers have about sample packs being made from just repackaged content - I want to be completely transparent about my design process.

I used a variety of techniques and tools (VSTs and plugins) to create these sounds, but most of them are synthesized - either with Serum 2 (especially the FX) or using different combinations of Reason devices like KONG Drum Synth, Thor, Audiomatic, and Scream4 Distortion. In some cases, I layered synthesized sounds with other samples (mainly from the Reason stock library) to achieve a specific texture.

While I did use my KORG PA-700 to compose some of the loops - and you might recognize certain drum sounds from its stock kits - all loops in this pack are original compositions, created specifically for this release.

To build and layer the sounds, I also used a mix of sources including Reason’s stock sound library, older samples I’ve created or synthesized myself troughout the years, recordings provided by musician friends, and selected material from freesound.org (all used within their licensing terms).

And finally, a huge thank you to all the friends who contributed by recording percussion hits and effects for Essential Balkan Drum Kit Vol. 1 and Vol. 2!
