The Lost Tapes is a Boom Bap Ableton template that perfectly captures the sound of early 90s Hip Hop and delivers an inspiring blend of punchy drums, deep bass, catchy piano melody, and accompanying strings.

The template is made without using samples and any 3rd party plugins - piano, strings, and bass tracks are all based on our own multi-sampled instrument racks and set as MIDI tracks allowing you to easily change melodies and drum patterns without any pitch or sound quality issues.

All processing, mixing, and mastering are done using only Ableton Live's built-in plugins.

To show you all the details of creating boom bap drums, we also didn't use any pre-made drum samples, kits, or loops. Instead, we sliced and processed a simple acoustic drum break from illements sample library and turned it into a hard-hitting beat. So with this Ableton template, you will be able to explore kick and snare processing chains (+ drum bus processing) and use them as a starting point for making your original drum loops and samples.

The template has a complete structure that can be easily customized to fit your idea and style.

The Lost Tapes provides the perfect starting point for creating your own original beats. All samples and instruments are royalty-free so you can use template-based beats for commercial releases.

What you need to work with this Ableton template:

  • Ableton Live 11 (or higher) Standard or Suite

What Our Customers are Saying

So interesting and exciting to discover the manufacturing secrets of so many eclectic styles and try to unravel the mystery of the big hits thanks to Abletunes.

My first recommendation to new producers is to open projects from others and study them. Abletunes enables you to do just that and I find myself downloading their releases quite often to learn from and pick apart.

First, i'd like to say I am a HUGE supporter of Abletunes. I have been purchasing your templates for years and I absolutely LOVE the techniques that you use because they are actually CORRECT. I studied "Mixing & Mastering" from Grammy Award Nominated: Luca Pretolesi of Italy and you guys use some of the same techniques as he does and that amazes me. I believe your "Producers" and "Mix Engineers" are GENIUS and I just wanted you guys to know that I appreciate what it is that you are doing. [...] Anyways, just wanted to let you guys know I appreciate your business and I am happy that there is actually a company that wants to teach people on how to become better Producers / Mix Engineers the CORRECT way. There is SO MUCH misinformation out there and I am thankful for your guys proper approach to producing. THANK YOU!

I wanted to take a moment to say that your templates have changed the way I look at production. These are such amazing starting points and I just had to say how much I appreciate the team there at Abletunes!

I just wanted to say your templates are amazing! I 'm trying to learn music production and I was starting to feel stuck with the youtube tutorials and masterclasses. But for me these templates are a goldmine for learning !! Thank you for making these.

I really respect what you are doing with your company. I have been involved with music for a long time and I believe there are a lot of misunderstandings about production. The way music production is taught in many places I feel is completely wrong and often leaves students at the end of their courses feeling uninspired and that they will never achieve their musical dreams. Breaking down songs into professional templates and letting users work out the musical rules is a great way to improve production. Well done :)
