Music Producer / Beatmaker for Sample Pack

Posted yesterday

Worldwide

Summary

PROJECT OVERVIEW We run a sample pack brand and we're looking for a skilled producer to build one complete, sellable sample pack containing 250 individual samples, from scratch. You will produce all the content yourself — original drums, melodies, loops and sessions — and break it down into a clean, professional, ready-to-sell pack with a consistent identity (see Style Direction below). LONG-TERM COLLABORATION This is not a one-off gig. We are looking to build a lasting working relationship with the right producer. This first pack is a paid trial — if the quality and the workflow are a good fit, our goal is to scale to a steady 3–4 packs per month on an ongoing basis. Because this is recurring, long-term volume, we expect a preferential per-pack rate that reflects it. Please quote this first pack AND indicate your rate for ongoing monthly work. STYLE DIRECTION The pack should be inspired by the sonic palette and aesthetic of Drake's ICEMAN era — moody, atmospheric, modern hip-hop / R&B. We will share a detailed mood board, tempo range and reference playlist on project start. ⚠️ This is a style reference only. Do NOT sample, recreate, interpolate or copy any Drake recording or any track from the ICEMAN album. We are capturing a vibe and genre, not reproducing songs. 100% of the content must be your own original production. DELIVERABLES — one sample pack: 250 audio samples, plus MIDI & project files: 130 Drum One Shots — kicks, snares, claps, hi-hats, percussion, 808s, cymbals, FX 50 Drum Loops — full drum grooves, top loops, percussion loops, hi-hat patterns 70 Melody Loops — synth, bass, chords, leads, pads 5 Construction Kits — each a full song starter (drums, melody, bass, FX as loops/stems), organized in folders, labeled with tempo + key (assembled from the pack's loops — no extra files) 100 MIDI Files — chord progressions, melodies, basslines, drum patterns 3 Project Files — fully arranged sessions, delivered in Ableton Live and FL Studio and Logic Pro formats TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS All audio: WAV, 24-bit, 44.1kHz minimum One-shots: trimmed, normalized, no dead air Loops: cut to exact bar lengths, tempo + key in the filename Construction Kits: clean folder structure, consistent naming MIDI: clean, properly labeled by type and key Professional, consistent file naming across the whole pack LICENSING & ORIGINALITY — MANDATORY, NON-NEGOTIABLE 100% royalty-free. We must own full, unrestricted rights to resell every single file. No sample may come from any third-party pack that is not royalty-free / license-cleared. No sample may be AI-generated. All content must be human-produced by you. No sample, melody or drum may be lifted from, or recreated note-for-note from, any copyrighted recording (including any Drake / ICEMAN material). No uncleared recordings, no loops pulled from subscription services (Splice, etc.) — assume you must create 100% of the content yourself. LEGAL Before we confirm the order, you will be required to sign a release/waiver including your full legal identity, confirming that all delivered content is 100% original, royalty-free, and contains no third-party, AI-generated or copyright-infringing material — and indemnifying us against any claim. TO APPLY, PLEASE INCLUDE: Links to previous sample packs / production work The DAW(s) you produce in + confirmation you can deliver project files for Ableton Live and FL Studio Your quote for this first 250-sample pack AND your per-pack rate for ongoing 3–4 packs/month work Your timeline for the first pack Explicit confirmation that you agree to sign the release/waiver
