Looptastic
the
story behind Sound Trends iPhone iPod Touch software
This
is how I got the gig producing loops for Looptastic.
Looptastic by Sound Trends is a new software company founded
by Aaron Higgins (founder of Mixmeister mp3 Dj Mix
software). I met Aaron in the early years of PLP. I was
doing a routine Google hunt and stumbled upon his first
software company Mixmeister. Mixmeister at the time was one
of the very first Dj mp3 mix programs. I thought it would be
interesting to offer his customers loops and sound effects
to add to their mixes so I emailed Aaron and he was
extremely kind and very much open to my input and ideas. We
developed a cross promotion relationship between PLP and
Mixmeister. I created a new product called Mix Enhancers and
sold many of them to Mixmeister users. Years passed and we
sort of lost touch. I've bumped into him at the occasional
NAMM convention. Numark eventually purchased Mixmeister and
now Aaron is developing music and sound apps for the iPhone
and iPod Touch. I received an email from Aaron out of the
blue recently with the subject "reconnecting". I was very
pleased to hear from him again. He was interested in
licensing some of my loops from PLP for his new app
Looptastic. There was absolutely no hesitation in my
response as I was extremely excited to be a part of this
cool new technology. I ended up licensing loops and also
creating new loops and selling them to him. All of the loops
for Looptastic with the exception of the Electro version
were created by yours truly. The genres I've produced are
Trance, Progressive, Minimal, Drum n Bass, Breaks, Ambient,
Hip Hop, and Halloween Sound Effects. Looptastic is
available in many different forms on iTunes. It allows users
to mix, match, and remix loops on their iPhone or iPod
Touch. There are some videos on Youtube here
