Dark Side Of The Tune Releases Queen’s English – Spoken Word Sample Disk
Lightning Review
The deviants at Dark Side Of The Tune have unleashed their latest sample library, Queen’s English, a spoken-word dealio from everyone’s favorite fun-gal, Miss T, an English dominatrix.
The disc is broken down into six sections, Fetish, Mistress, Street, Food, Bible and Vulgarity. Some of the sound bites flat out don’t work, such as the Street section which has Miss T stating: “I’ll bust a cap in your ass.” However, several of the other sections, especially the vulgarity and fetish action will appeal to a certain segment of the electronic music production populace.
The sounds are presented in 24 bit / 44.1kHz or 16 bit / 44.1 kHz sample rates, but there really isn’t much of a difference between the two. A couple of our staffers also thought that the last word at the end of some of the samples were “cut off abruptly.”
A decent concept from Dark Side, but the endeavor could benefit from longer, more interesting passages. Power Rating: 60%
Dark Side Of The Tune’s Queen’s English costs $29.99 or $8.99 for the MPC kit. More information on Queen’s English.
