Before there was EDM, there was EBM. Short for Electronic Body Music, EBM was a outgrowth of industrial music spawned in '80s Germany, dialling up the tempo of its predecessor to create a potent fusion of driving synth lines, distorted beats and aggressive vocals.
Today's edition of SampleRadar is an EBM toolkit, containing a selection of synth loops, basslines and drum patterns, along with a variety of individual drum hits, all bearing the genre's punchy and dystopian sonic signature.
