You’ll notice that, with the exception of Trap Gods, our quality quintet doesn’t offer much in the way of 808s, boom-bap drums or any of the other head-nodding staples you might be expecting. For this round-up, we’ve scoured the web to find five free KONTAKT instrument libraries that will take any basic trap beat in a darker, and altogether more interesting, direction. If you want your trap and hip-hop productions to truly stand out from the crowd, you need to be constantly on the lookout for interesting, original sample libraries – but you don’t necessarily need to spend any money to get hold of them.
