About volca sample

“I've been able to play around with the Volca Sample for some time now, and it's an incredibly powerful groove-box. It was very simple to just pick up and play with, and for such a small device it definitely proves capable; I'd recommend it to both beginners as well as experienced trackmakers for certain. I love the workflow of sampling and I use it a lot in my music, the Volca Sample provides the user with great tools to tweak, shape & place samples. It's definitely my favorite hardware sampler at the moment.”

About the demo song and sample pack

“This sample pack gathers multiple elements from my style, from cute vocals to cool bass sounds. The demo song was made entirely after finishing this sample pack. I wanted to show how musical & technical the volca sample can be in production as well as live performance.”

TORIENA

TORIENA started her career in Kyoto in 2012, and in 2013, she launched Japan's first chiptune label "MADMILKEY RECORDS". In October 2018, she released her first full-length album "SIXTHSENSE RIOT" from MADMILKEY RECORDS, that was a hit nationwide.

She has appeared in "HYPER JAPAN 2017 (UK)" and "MAGFest 2018 (USA)", and is a well-known artist overseas as well, having also created songs for SEGA's "Team Sonic Racing", TV anime "Yojin-chan Dropkick" insert song, Softbank's "MONEY RUN" BGM/SE, and the commercial "GEO Mart Purchase Campaign" amongst many others.

About volca sample

“The volca sample runs on batteries, is compact and lightweight so it’s super easy to carry it anywhere, from the beginning I just felt it would be really easy to make beats with this machine! Thanks to its USB it is super simple to manage my samples, and could modify them directly super fast and intuitively. Just one volca sample is enough to create complex and interesting phrases, but of course using it together with other volcas is super fun too. Also, I felt like beat-makers and composers tend to reclude themselves at home to make music, but with such a compact machine you can go anywhere you want and get new inspiration easily.”

About the demo song and sample pack

“I made 2 phrase patterns and one break. For the main synth sound (TS-07) I changed the PITCH/SPEED and EG INT parameters and saved the result on a separate memory slot, then I just started improvising by soloing and muting parts and changing parameters following the rhythm. The samples that come by default are already really good so I used many of those, and for the rest of the sounds that I wanted I made them on my DAW and transferred to the volca sample. Some of the sounds included in the sample pack were not even used in the demo song so go ahead and have fun with those!”

Free bundle of music software

The volca sample comes with a diverse variety of music software from Izotope including “Ozone Elements” which lets you not only create songs but also master them using AI, “Skoove” which will help you improve your keyboard playing skills, “Reason Lite” DAW software, as well as software synths from KORG and other brands.
