Breakbeat scientist bitshift has created 40 MB of exclusive Apple Loops, available for free download, perfect for GarageBand and Soundtrack. And since Apple Loops are plain AIFFs, of course, you can load them into non-Apple Loops software like Ableton Live and loop them there, too. Best news: if you saw this item a few days ago, just tried the download and thanks to a new server it's downloading nice and fast! Opt-in for their mailing list and you'll get free software instruments, too. Enjoy!
