Let The Beat Go

Rave music is making a comeback, and you can hear its signature sounds — like rave stabs, sharp synths, pitch-shifted vocals, and breakbeat loops — in nearly every genre. So we decided to get back to the roots and create something totally inspired by the golden era of Breakbeat, Hardcore, and the overall UK rave scene of the early 90s.

To faithfully capture that authentic sound, we went all analog, but using no static audio tracks — all bass and synth tracks are based on instrument racks multi-sampled (one note per sample) from a range of analog synths.

This makes Let The Beat Go entirely editable and customizable, much like all Abletunes templates. All the main instrument and drum tracks are set as MIDI tracks, allowing you to adjust and customize every detail — from drum patterns and synth melodies to structure, tempo, and more.

This flexibility enables you to use the template as a foundation to create Breakbeat tracks in Ableton Live or remix it into any genre you prefer, whether it's Tech House, Techno, or Drum & Bass.

Moreover, this approach transforms the template into the ultimate resource for learning music production techniques. You can completely dissect the project, exploring every track — analyzing drum patterns, isolating samples and layers individually, and understanding how processing impacts the overall sound. The project is open for you to explore and learn, and you can save each instrument rack, processing chain, and sound for future use in your productions.

The template includes all the essential elements you need to create 90s-style Breakbeat tracks — broken beat, driving bassline, stab melodies, catchy synth lead, and sampled vocals.

Let The Beat Go is ready to use straight out of the box — mixed and mastered using Live's effects and requires zero third-party plugins.

This Ableton template is a perfect source of inspiration, a valuable learning resource, and an ideal starting point for producers looking to infuse their productions with 90s rave vibes.
