Christian and his team at Soundsphat have been working tirelessly with us at Basic Wavez over the last 5 months to build a huge sample pack which we have aptly named Ancestral Afro House Essentials Vol.1, a highly versatile pack containing everything from Vocals, Drums and Loops, to Diva Presets and MIDI. All the essential ingredients needed to make modern Afro and Melodic House, and today Christian will be building a track from the ground up while using only this pack.
