Just wanted to come by to say hi, and mention that we have just launched a new company called Dream Date Designs with our first sample based instrument.
Dreamer
What is Dreamer?
TL;DR — It takes your typical chain of complex samplers, boutique fx and modular gear and puts it’s in an intuitive, powerful and free plugin.
A loop based sample player that extracts the sounds from your dreams and injects them into your music.
Song builder, sound shaper, dream maker.
Dreamer comes with a selection of 30 loops from our Dream Date Loops Library as well as specially designed presets.
Authorize via the latest version of Native Instruments Native Access and use for free with Kontakt Player 7.
What makes Dreamer unique?
- Dreamer provides quick access to 30 modular FX with powerful macros. Turning one control makes a big difference with macros that give you control over multiple parameters at once. It’s like having access to a whole pedalboard of FX that you can reorder and work with quickly.
- Dreamer is designed for fast and fun music creation. It takes things that require 3-4 clicks elsewhere and lets you do them in 1. Imagine your favourite hardware styled controller for things like granular playback, tempo sync playback and quick reversing but in software. Complex sound design tricks with a creative friendly interface.
- It’s a happy accident machine optimized for inspiration. Dreamer lets you quickly work with any sample on your hard drive. Drop melodic or percussive samples on to the UI and you can even transpose them to your key all at once together without touching the drums.
- Ever growing library of new and unique loop content. Five loop packs at launch. Lots more to Come!

Dreamer Loops
We’re launching Dreamer with five loop packs, each with 30 presets for dreamer and available as 24-bit wav files wherever you like to use loops.
All of the loops have been meticulously created and crafted through our finest outboard gear, vintage tape recorders and characterful processing units.
Christine Bougie x Dream Date Designs
Master of lap steel, electric and acoustic guitar, Christine Bougie is internationally recognized as one of the most unique guitar voices in the world.
Her incomparable feel and imagination has led to her being a key member of the band Bahamas, and her solo instrumental albums sound like no other. Her loop pack consist of a microcosm view of her vast world; swirling steel blended with nylon strums, plucked almost dissonance over a pastoral bed of ambience.
Let her into your dreams and she’ll show you hers.
Joseph Shabason x Dream Date Designs
Working with bands like Destroyer, War On Drugs, DIANA, and his own solo albums have led Joseph Shabason to create a sound that's half human/half tape and early digital effect.
A master of tone, he applies his knowledge of harmonization with 80's and 90's effects to create a loop pack that defies the definition of what a saxophone is allowed to be, or to feel like.
Over 1gb of loops, passed through various stages of analog tape machine such as Nagra 4S, Nagra SN, walkman, Roland Space Echo 101, and more.
Breaks Vol. 1
Dusted, raw, human fed breaks from the retro corners of our studio. Using vintage RCA microphones and analog processes we present Vol. 1 of a series of beats designed to make you move, chop, and re-build what came from the past into the future.
Melodic Metal
An organic hybrid of metallic components fused together into a melodic rust free bucket. Loops made from Gamelan bars, gong strips, and vibraphone together as a new instrument capable of metal melody and rhythmic diversity. All loops have been passed through a variety of our favourite tape machines including a Nagra 4s, Nagra SN, modified Tascam Port02, Roland Space echo 101, walkman, and Lexicon Prime Time.
Hand Drums
Using a bespoke kit of congas, talking drum, bata, bongos, and children’s hand drums, Hand Drums is a percussion loop pack unlike any. Imperfect and unquatinzed, these grooves were made by 100 percent human and all feel has been left intact. Recorded using very carefully selected vintage ribbon microphones and preamps, all loops were processed through specifically chosen tape paths, such as Nagra 4S, Nagra SN, Walkman, Roland Space Echo 101, and modified Tascam Porta02.
