    All I have seen or listened to have just been synth presets for one or two synths. Are the "spam" ones freebies? The recent dump of them this weekend are the only ones I see which have been on sister site or on torrent tracker. They wouldn't get archived if they were not "Releases" shared by someone. They are also the only ones for sale on the site listed on the AZ posts as homepage.

    They are all for individual products, also. So maybe some will be useful, some not; but at least there is decent reason for them to be so many individual uploads (organized per plugin or synth). These Olly James packs are all samples that would probably amount to 2 regular Loopmasters sized sample packs. The sheer number of individual uploads is what makes them spam, even if they were any good to start with. There's not much reason to make 50 separate packs unless you knew they would get ripped and uploaded. Ala New Beard Media...

    Don't know didn’t look into everything, but what I did notice was advertising for commercial patch packs, which I call spam.

    I might remember it only because I always misread the title as "Anti-Vax"

    Sorry. I meant as in I haven't followed his recent work since I don't like psytrance or techno. I much perfer his bigroom, electro and progressive house stuff that I don't think he does anymore? Maybe I'm wrong. My point was that I'm not upto date with his music. And to come back to my original point. What has he done wrong? It's not his fault the sister site is flooded with his sample packs. If u actually pay for his patron I'd say it's a great value and he should applauded. Especially since u seem to forget that the whole purpose of some of this packs are they provide remix starting points which is the number one way to edm producers to get noticed in 2025. And I'm sorry the whole "how many samples/Plugins u need" is a laughable statement. If that's the case the sister site would only have fifty packs covering fifty genres and nineteen Plugins covering all mixing, mastering criterias. If there's no demand for his stuff in sister site I'm sure there wouldn't be any uploads since it would be a waste of bandwidth to upload them.

    Who cares about signature sounds... Just do your own thing... It's 2025.
