In the last decade, no city’s been more synonymous with hip hop than Atlanta. New ATL stars explode onto the world stage on a regular basis, new sounds and dance moves appear out of nowhere every season. It’s no wonder the likes of OutKast, Young Thug, Childish Gambino and so many more see their Atlanta roots as a badge of honor.
This month we launched Tracklanta 2020: Virtual Remix to give up-and-coming artists a chance to be mentored by some of the hip hop capital’s finest producers and artists. So we thought there’s no better time to empower these creators with the sounds of the epicenter of hip hop.
To do that, we connected with some of Atlanta’s top producers to bring the Atlanta sound to everyone here on BandLab. The result? Three exclusive Loop Packs on our Mix Editor, specially created for us by these Atlanta-based producers who have some of the biggest names in hip hop on their CVs.
Now, you can follow in the footsteps of the greats by creating your very own beats with these Loops.
Made in Atlanta
Here are the producers we have worked with to bring us these exclusive Atlanta-inspired Loop Packs.
Tasha Catour

A Grammy Award winning producer who has worked with the likes of Future, Joe Gifted, Tinashe and Keke Palmer. The latter recently performed her single “Snack”, which was produced by Tasha Catour, at MTV’s 2020’s virtual VMA’s. Tasha was also one of the producers who worked with last year’s Tracklanta winners at ICONS.
Tasha Catour’s Loop Pack is available on web and mobile, and it’ll give you access to a gallery of samples from aggressive 808s to hard-hitting sub bass to atmospheric horns.
RENEGADE EL REY

RENEGADE EL REY is the studio engineer of the legendary Stankonia Studios – the birthplace of some of Outkast’s biggest hits over the last decade.
You’ll get access to some of RENEGADE EL REY’s signature sounds in his exclusive Loop Pack. The samples are inspired by the south, with hard-kicks, 808s and fast-moving hi-hats, a Memphis, TN signature.
You can find out more about the process and story behind RENEGADE EL REY’s Loop Pack here.
Bless’Em’Bless

Having plied his trade as a studio engineer at ICONS Studios, Bless’Em’Bless has worked with a host of major artists like Sean Garrett, Jacques and Young Thug.
Bless’Em’Bless’ Loop Pack will inspire you to create much more than just trademark Atlanta-esque beats. Filled with an eclectic mix of genres from latin, to trap, and hip-hop, this exclusive Loop Pack is designed to inspire the next big hit.
