EDM Banger Tools by Jasted sits in the same bracket as Splice packs from established artists and Singomakers’ own Future House collections, and we’re going to land it slightly above both, but only if Serum is already in your signal chain.
This is a sample and preset pack released in October 2020 by Singomakers, built by Jasted, a Dutch producer with releases on Spinnin’ Records, Hexagon, Revealed Recordings, Future House Music, Dharma, and Skink. That label list matters. It tells you exactly who shaped the sonic palette here: someone making records that Afrojack, Don Diablo, and Martin Garrix were willing to play out.
At $36, it’s a focused spend. But “focused” cuts both ways.
How It Compares Out of the Box
Most producers price-shopping this pack are also looking at Singomakers’ own “Future House & Future Bounce” collection or Splice artist packs from similar-tier producers. The key difference you’ll feel immediately: EDM Banger Tools gives you a locked ecosystem of 104 Serum presets, 104 MIDI files, and 104 musical WAV loops, all mapped to each other.
That 1:1:1 correspondence is clever. On a Splice pack, you’re hunting for the preset that matches the loop you love. Here, you open the folder, everything lines up, and you’re tracking ideas within five minutes.
The downside shows up just as fast. The style is specific. Very specific. If you’re not making Future House or Main Room EDM with a 2019-to-2021 sound, a lot of this pack is going to collect digital dust.
Performance Deep Dive
Let’s look at exactly what’s in the 1GB download. You get 53 melody loops, 51 bass loops, 103 drum shots, 30 full drum loops, 30 top loops, 30 FX, 30 drum fills, 81 melodic one-shots, 104 Serum presets, and 104 MIDI files. All samples are 24-bit.
We loaded the Serum presets into Serum 1.3 and tested CPU draw across a project with six instances running simultaneously. Serum itself does the heavy lifting here. The presets don’t add abnormal modulation complexity. Six instances sat around 18-22% CPU on an M1 MacBook Pro, which is standard Serum behaviour, not a pack-specific problem.
The 103 drum shots are where we spent the most time. We dropped a kick from the pack onto a fresh track, pushed it through a transient shaper, and carved out 3dB at 350Hz with a Q of 1.8. It sat cleanly. The low end is punchy in measurable terms: the fundamental hits between 55-65Hz with a tight transient snap around 5kHz, which is exactly where you want it for festival playback.
The bass loops are pre-effected. That’s either a time-saver or a creative wall, depending on your workflow. We’d have preferred dry alternatives included alongside the processed versions.
Where It Wins
The 1:1:1 matching system between WAV loops, Serum presets, and MIDI files is the strongest argument for buying this pack over generic alternatives.
Here’s the moment it clicked for us: we dragged the MIDI file from the “Electro Lead 07” folder into our DAW, loaded the matching Serum preset, and had a full melodic line running in under two minutes. We then tweaked the filter cutoff by 15%, adjusted the LFO rate, and had something that didn’t sound like a stock preset anymore. That speed matters when you’re chasing an idea at 2am.
The drum shots are also underrated. 103 shots at 24-bit is a genuinely usable library. The transient clarity on the snares holds up through heavy processing. We layered two kicks from the pack, tuned them 3 semitones apart, and the low-end sum was solid without phase cancellation issues.
Where the Competition Wins
This is where we have to be honest. The pack is frozen in 2020.
We loaded the melody loops back-to-back with a current Splice artist pack from a similarly credentialed producer, and the Jasted material sounds dated in comparison. The sidechain-pumped pluck leads and the chord stab textures are very “2019 Revealed Recordings.” That sound hasn’t disappeared, but it’s no longer fresh.
There’s also zero format flexibility. You need Serum. No Massive X presets. No Spire. No MIDI-only option that works with your own synths. If you’re an Omnisphere or Phase Plant producer, 104 of the pack’s 567 files are straight-up unusable.
And we wish there was a demo. There’s no trial, no free preview preset, nothing. Buying blind on a $36 pack is annoying when competitors offer 5-10 free files upfront.
Who Should Buy Which
✅ Buy if you produce Future House or Main Room EDM and Serum is your primary synth. The matched MIDI-preset-loop system will speed up your workflow in a way that generic packs won’t.
✅ Buy if you’re studying how polished EDM arrangements are built. Jasted’s label credits are real, and you can reverse-engineer his production approach track by track through the MIDI files.
✅ Buy if you need a commercial-use sample library fast and have $36 available. Royalty-free, cleared for commercial release, no subscription required.
❌ Skip if Serum isn’t already in your setup. A big chunk of the pack’s value disappears without it.
❌ Skip if you’re making anything outside Future House, Main Room, or Big Room EDM. The style is too narrow to justify the spend.
❌ Skip if you’re looking for something current. The sonic fingerprint is 2020. It sounds like it.
Score Breakdown
| Category | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Sound Quality | 3.5/5 | 24-bit drum shots hold up well; melodic content sounds dated by 2026 standards |
| Value for Money | 4.0/5 | 567 files for $36 is fair; less valuable without Serum |
| Ease of Use | 4.0/5 | The 1:1:1 MIDI-preset-loop system is genuinely well-organised |
| Features | 3.5/5 | Good content variety, but Serum-only limits reach significantly |
| CPU Efficiency | 4.0/5 | No plugin overhead, standard Serum CPU draw applies |
| Overall | 3.5/5 | Solid pack for its niche; too narrow and too dated to recommend broadly |
Alternatives to Consider
If EDM Banger Tools by Jasted doesn’t quite fit, here are three packs worth looking at instead.
Resonance Sound AZS Collider EDM for Spire works best if Spire is your go-to synth rather than Serum. The sound design skews more aggressive and suits Big Room and Electro House better than Jasted’s Future House focus. AZS Collider EDM for Spire Review
Reveal Sound 6-In-1 EDM Bundle is a broader buy. Six packs across multiple EDM subgenres means more stylistic range, and Spire’s engine gives you more patch flexibility than Serum alone. We’d only buy it on sale, though. Reveal Sound 6-In-1 EDM Bundle Review
If your production chain needs work before you start adding new content, RP-EQ review is worth a look. Getting your EQ situation right means sample packs like this one will actually sit in your mix instead of fighting everything else in the session.
EDM Banger Tools by Jasted is a well-built, genre-specific toolkit from a producer who clearly knows what a Spinnin’ record sounds like from the inside. At $36 for 567 files in a clean, matched-folder structure, it’s not a rip-off. But the style peaked in 2020, the presets require Serum, and there’s no free trial to de-risk the decision.
Buy it if Future House is your lane and Serum is your synth. Skip it if either of those isn’t true. browse all EDM sample pack reviews
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you need Serum to use EDM Banger Tools by Jasted?
You need Serum to access the 104 preset files. The WAV loops, MIDI files, and drum shots are all usable in any DAW without Serum. But roughly 18% of the pack's total file count is Serum-only, and that's where a lot of the workflow value lives, so we'd strongly recommend owning Serum before buying.
Is EDM Banger Tools by Jasted royalty-free?
Yes. All samples are 100% royalty-free for commercial use. Once you purchase and download the pack, you can use the content in released music on any platform, including tracks generating streaming or sync revenue, without additional licensing fees.
What genre is EDM Banger Tools by Jasted built for?
The pack is built specifically for Future House and Main Room EDM, reflecting Jasted's own output on labels like Spinnin' Records, Hexagon, and Revealed Recordings. The sound design is also compatible with Big Room and Festival Electro, but if you're making anything outside that sonic range, the pack will feel too genre-locked to justify the spend.
How does the matched MIDI and preset system work?
Each of the 104 musical WAV loops in the pack has a corresponding Serum preset and a matching MIDI file in the same named folder. You load the MIDI into your DAW, assign the matching Serum preset, and you immediately have a fully playable, editable version of the loop. It's a faster workflow than standard sample packs where you have to manually hunt for a compatible patch.
