Kompa Sounds & Samples

1804: Kompa

On January 1st, 1804, Jean-Jacques Dessalines declared the country of Haïti as an independent nation, effectively making the country the first ever black republic. This day of independence has since been a cornerstone of the immense pride that Haitian people have in their heritage. “1804” brings the sounds of Haitian independence and pride into a sample pack featuring the country’s most popular musical genre: Kompa. As the first Kompa pack on the platform, the contents of “1804” do not disappoint. With 15 Melodic Loops (with included stems), and 15 Drum Loops (each in 3 varieties, totaling 45 total drum loops), you can instantly drag and drop these loops into your DAW to create instant Kompa and Zouk grooves. If you are looking to construct your own progressions and loops, there are 84 guitar, keyboard, and synth one-shots as well as 38 drum/percussion one-shots to hand craft your own custom Kompa Loops. Men kompa!
