Reggae chord samples? (you know, the off beat ones)

Post by Sure_Fire » Sun Jun 30, 2013 7:26 am

I'm just looking for some samples of clean guitar chords similar to that used in reggae tracks (the off beat stuff). I don't actually listen to reggae I just like reggae influenced EDM, inspired me to make some of my own. The track is in f# minor although I'd also like a g minor chord if that helps any.

Cheers!

I'm really not that keen on sampling them straight from songs, was more wondering if anyone actually had some raw samples from a reggae sample pack or something.

why? it's harder to find decent samples of just chords from reggae songs but they sound so much better when you do

more authentic init

Suppose it's worth a shot. Not exactly feeling like sifting through a tonne of reggae tracks but meh

if you want to make tracks indebted to a genre, you should probably get to know your source material imo
