Chicago footwork producer DJ Taye made his name as one of the youngest artists affiliated with the Teklife crew, which he joined in 2010. Born in 1994, he began making hip hop beats and rapping at age 11 and was introduced to the sounds of DJ Rashad and DJ Spinn in 2007. Entranced by the head-spinning beats, booming bass, and frantically cut-up samples, he began producing his own tracks in that style, and eventually racked up several digital releases and mix sessions. DJ Taye has been paving the way for the footwork sound to permeate across genres and this pack does exactly that.

Leftover from the duo's earlier sample-based style, comes luscious late-night loops to get you inspired. Dive into DJDS' Big Wave More Fire Sample Kit Vol. 1 now.
