Hip hop originated in the Bronx in New York City and has evolved over time to encompass various styles and cultural elements. Ask 100 different hip hop producers what hip hop means to them, and they would likely give 100 different answers. Just compare the style of modern trap music with 90s jazz rap. They are technically in the same genre but have an entirely different feel.
No matter which kind of hip hop you are working with, there’s no question how essential the beat and the baseline are. They are the foundation of the whole genre.
Today we’re going to look at some of the top VSTs for producers of all types of hip hop.

Decimort recreates the colouration and adds the vintage sampler's magic to any sound.
Electronic music (especially Hip-Hop) producers have long been aware that classic samplers (such as early Akai and E-MU units) had a character and sound all their own: they added a "grit" and "colour" to the samples and loops they played back which made them sound "fat" and sit well in a mix. This sound colouration was due to the encoding techniques, lower sample rate and bit depth, and conversion circuits used by these early samplers. Decimort recreates this colouration and adds that vintage sampler magic back to any loop, any bassline, or any sound played through it for that matter! Beyond vintage sampler emulation, it’s also the perfect bit-crusher with filter, capable of extreme settings for dramatic results.

Hats is a drum synthesizer plugin dedicated to hi-hats and cymbals sounds, which features two independent sources: synthesized noise and sample section. Instead of generic white or pink noise, the noise section features 6 square wave oscillators with different pitches and phases, like the famous 808 - the result is a noise sound with a controllable metallic character.
The factory bank comes with more than 50 samples, ranging from rare analog drum machines to real acoustic hi-hats and cymbals. Some of the samples were also processed with a classic Aphex Aural Exciter and recorded to tape with a vintage Revox B77 MkII.
Both sources can then be processed with 4 effects: Ring Modulator, Bit Crusher, Filter, and Reverb. The effects can also be arranged in any order with a simple drag and drop. The filter section features a HighPass and BandPass in series; both filters are 12dB/oct state variable filters with zero delay feedback.
