The World's first futurefunk sample CD. As terminalhead put it: "There are no rules. There are no BPMs. There are no keys. There is only the need for PuSHing the boundaries of people's perception into ways of creating music for tomorrow that fully embraces all technologies and forges solid bonds with all that is known to funk and groove. This CD should arm you with the material that has been borne out of some serious experimentation and is in every way nothing other than unique." As they say the artwork doesn't include any BPMs, keys or much description - but that is what it is all about.
You'll understand when you hear it.
CD feature's:
Pete's Drum Loops & Chops
Assorted drum loops. Distorted, filtered and phat. Watch them bass bins flap.
Pete's Lo-Fi Drum Loops and Chops
Drums and drum effects utilising 8 and 4 bit lo-fi cruch technology. Sizeable and hard.
Funky Crunch Gate Corner
Created using many sound sources. Sample, fly in and enjoy - they're funky. Try triggering them in different parts of the bar. Also includes many 4 and 8 bit loops. Warning - some of the sounds are REALLY hard.
Synth Riffs/Sounds
Assortment of usable synth lines, sounds and sequences. Once again, created using a cross section of old analogue boxes, some crunchy filters and 4/8 bit processing. Sample the bits you like, shut your eyes and fly 'em in.
Greg's Funky Hard Chops
Hard as nails, but smooth as silk. You're certain to find a chop or rhythmic phrase to suit your track.
Dub FX
Loads of fresh sexy, NEW dub effects to spice up your track. Treat with love, care and respect.
Pascal Benadjaoud Percussion
This time delivering new grooves for terminalhead, using bongos, congas, darbuka, tambourines, triangles, shakers and vocals. Pascal gets phased, phreaked and dubbed out.
Shortwave Strangeness
Best reapings from many a cold, dark night in front of the trusty old tranny.
Misc. Unusualness
An odd assortment of those hard to categorise sounds.
Greg's Trippy Oddness
An unusual collection of very usuable processed guitar.
Synth Effects
Many very weird, wonderful and wide synthetic effects.
Analogue Pads and Sweeps
A collection of filter sweeps and beautiful organic moments.
All highly processed and grunged up big time including some 4-bit processing. All specially recorded, distorted, filtered and phat

Review Highlights
"Raunchy, raw, and rude: Three "R" words that describe the audio material you'll get on the Terminalhead CDs. That's meant as a compliment...you'll find lots to get excited about and inspired by: crunchy drum and guitar loops, oddball sound effects, wicked synth lines, spacy analog synth events, and more...And to assure the audio gets dirty enough, the producers downsampled or sample-converted much of the material so that it's only 8- or even 4-bit. Grunge City!...I really appreciate the variety of drum loops, which range from fairly straight-ahead to absolutely monstrous -- with a decided multitude of the latter...The processing is so thick it's tasteful, and the hooks are infectious. Some of the best feature digitally sliced-and-diced vocals..."AMG has been one of the world's most consistent producers of great loop CDs over the past few years," Greg concluded, "and Terminalhead does not disappoint." - Keyboard (USA), Dec 97.

Format Info
GENERAL: ReFills are exclusively for use with Propellerheads Reason. They are preset expansions that transform Reason and can offer you new sounds for every module in Reason. Not all ReFills contain content for every module and libraries that are essentially only REX file-based (like drum loop libraries) are generally only released as REX CDs rather than ReFills. ReFills make sample libraries come to life!
SPECIFIC: This ReFill contains all the library's REX files, there are also NN19 programs for extremely fast access, some ReDrum kits, SubTractor patches and even a few song starters.
