reviewed:
"Minimal and tech-house is officially the new electro, so it’s no surprise that a slew of sample collections are coming to the market to meet demand. And ‘Minimal & Tech-House’ from Sample Magic is a fine collection. Pick of the bunch are the percussive loops and single-hit percussion sounds, but there are also bass and other musical loops too. They are all expertly and intricately produced and offer some useful and very current sounding material to sample.
The nice sonic quality means this collection should enjoy much more broad-ranging appeal. And sampling is made very easy, thanks to the large variety of formats catering for Rex, Wav, Reason NN-XT, Halion, Kontakt, EXS 24, RMX and Apple Loops. There is even an audio CD version, allowing you to sit back and audition samples while driving or getting on with other things. All in all, this is a really great collection and one that will retain its usefulness long after the genre that spawned it has passed into history. Verdict: 5/5." DJ magazine,

"Those
of you looking for real cutting-edge Minimal should snap up this DVD
and CD multipack. It's hard to guess how these sounds are so on the
money. The sounds, patterns and loops are brilliantly fresh and are
very close to what's booming out of most clubs' main floors. You'll
find some great smooth booming kicks and some tight percussive elements
alongside other lovely loops and hits. There are kick-free loops, FX,
warped vocals and atmospherics between 125 and 130bpm. A multitude of
formats are covered so you can drop any of the bits easily into your
favourite software. 9/10."

"Sample
Magic’s latest offering, Minimal & Tech-House, continues to help
define Sample Magic as the hottest new developer of loop libraries and
samples. Led by talented producer and DJ Sharooz Raoofi, Sample Magic
is winning awards and garnering critical acclaim thanks to their
attention to detail and absolutely authentic production quality. This
attention to detail is what made last fall’s Electro-House collection a
bona fide hit and a studio staple for quite a few electro producers.
Minimal
& Tech-House continues their winning streak into this year’s genres
du jour. With over 2GB of material at 125, 127 and 130 BPM tempos and
support for numerous formats including REX, AppleLoop, WAV and Reason,
M&TH is a treasure chest of material for either inspiration or
production. Drums, bass, synth, and even a smattering of processed
vocal material are all present and accounted for, so there’s a little
something available for most production situations. And as with
Electro-House, the synthesis and sequencing is spectacular without any
clichéd material whatsoever – and the drum loops are as close to
perfection as you can get without sampling someone else’s joint.
It’s
no exaggeration to say that neophyte Beatport producers could build
entire tracks using only the material here, but I daresay adding your
own creativity to this mix will get you a lot further. Bottom line? If
you’re into the sound that’s been blowing up the Beatport Top 10 for
the past few months, this library was tailor-made for you." Beatportal, March
2008
"Yet
another minimal house sample library, Minimal & Tech-House
thankfully manages to avoid obsolescence by being rather good. The
contributing producers are obviously familiar with the conventions of
the genres, and the samples are all of a high standard. The music and
synth loops – usually the least useful aspects of these libraries – are
tastefully done and quite inspirational, as are the drum loops and the
always-important individual drum hits. Minimal & Tech-House
would
make a great investment for anyone making deeper dance music.
9/10." Computer
