Move the Soul — Modern Afro House with Organic Groove

Production Music Live’s Afro House Sound Pack Vol.4 is designed around the warm, hypnotic character of contemporary Afro House. The collection combines driving percussion, organic rhythmic elements, deep basses, expressive plucks, melodic leads and atmospheric pads to create a polished sound palette suited to both club-focused productions and more melodic, emotional arrangements.

The soundbank takes inspiration from the modern Afro House scene, including the styles associated with Francis Mercier, Rivo, Meera and Marten Lou. Its combination of Serum presets, matching MIDI, WAV samples and complete Ableton projects makes it more than a conventional preset pack—it functions as a practical production toolkit for developing complete tracks.

Workflow & Usability Focus

The included matching MIDI files allow producers to immediately experiment with the musical ideas behind the Serum presets. Audio previews make browsing fast, while the 8 fully produced Ableton projects can be used as song starters, arrangement references, mixing references and educational production examples.

The pack is particularly suited to producers who want to study how modern Afro House arrangements are constructed while having access to the sounds and MIDI material used within the production workflow.
