For over a decade, Niles Hollowell-Dhar (KSHMR) has set the gold standard for sample packs. Since launching Sounds of KSHMR in 2015, the series has powered hit songs with billions of streams, earning a reputation for sounds that are high quality straight out of the box.
Sounds of KSHMR Vol. 5 is the most ambitious chapter yet, built over a three year creative journey. Featuring 7400+ samples across nine meticulously curated folders, Vol. 5 expands on staple genres like Dance, Disco, EDM, Hip-Hop, House & Pop with new additions like Afro-House, Baile Funk, Bollywood, Drum & Bass, Techno, Tech House, UK Garage, and more, blending global influences into one trusted creative toolkit.
This volume showcases an expanded roster of hand picked sound designers, instrumentalists, and vocalists from around the world. Alongside classic staples, you’ll find new live instruments like Clarinet, Bass Tar, Didgeridoo, Lyra, Oud, Saz, Shehnai and Sitar, featuring loose improvisations, gripping loops, and jammed performances — giving producers the freedom to chop, shape, and choose their favorite moments.
Vol. 5 also introduces a major vocal expansion, packed with catchy choruses, talky hooks, and performance driven phrases designed to drop seamlessly into modern productions.
Inspired by KSHMR’s own journey; starting out as a kid in 90s Berkeley receiving sample CDs in the mail and now giving back to the next generation, this pack is built so producers of any genre or ambition can move fast, stay inspired, and trust that everything they need lives in one place.
Sounds of KSHMR Vol. 5 is available now. The journey is yours.
