A Global EDM Sound Arsenal

Sounds of KSHMR Vol. 2 expands the KSHMR production aesthetic into a remarkably broad collection of electronic, cinematic, acoustic, and world-influenced sounds. The library includes processed kicks, snares, claps, hats, percussion loops, synths, bass sounds, guitars, orchestral instruments, vocals, atmospheric recordings, and unusual field recordings.

A major strength of the collection is its combination of polished EDM production with organic and ethnic instrumentation. Indian percussion, sitar, acoustic and electric guitar, strings, brass, woodwinds, duduk, choir, stadium recordings, and animal/field-recording FX give producers material that goes beyond conventional electronic sample packs.

Arrangement & Workflow Efficiency

The library is extensively organized with key and BPM information where applicable. KSHMR's production approach also extends key labeling to many individual drum sounds, although the original creator notes that these labels should be treated as practical production guidance rather than an absolute requirement.

Tempo-tagged material ranges across multiple production styles rather than being locked to a single EDM tempo. Examples in the library include 92 BPM stadium material, 100 BPM cinematic drums and guitar material, 128 BPM fills, 140 BPM dubstep material, 150 BPM stadium loops, and 185 BPM animal FX.
