Looking for samples/loops/presets for a liquid DNB track

Hey all. I'm working on a liquid DNB track. I've got a good beat and bassline going, and I'm looking for a few elements:

A good vocal track. I'm thinking something like Lenzman's Afraid of Jazz.. More than just a one phrase sample. Something acapella that I can cut up and use throughout the track.

Some good percussion loops. I've got plenty of solid kicks, snares, and hats. What I need is more percussion loops. Something to add the shuffle and the liquid roller vibe. Shakers, tambourine, bongos, congas, wood blocks, etc.

Good violin or piano samples. A little riff or melody to cut and sample. Even a good free violin or piano vst would help. The ones I have are crap.

I need a good sort of airy whooshy synth preset to use over the build up and break in. You know what I mean. As the drum roll builds up for the break, there's usually an airy sound that raises in pitch until the break and then settles back down again. I have Massive, FM8, and Absynth, so a preset for one of those would be great. Otherwise, a sample is cool too.

A good free high pass filter. I want the drums to settle in at the beginning using a HPF but the ones I have are crap.

Good enough.. Any help would be great. Thanks a lot guys!

Well, Lenzman's tune is a Remix of a Madmen & Poets track. Just look for 70s funk and soul on youtube, when you find something workable, rip it and sample it. I think for the kind of liquid you're making this is the best approach.


I do have a motown acappella pack somewhere on my laptop, if a few of you want it, I'll mediafire it or something
