The Native Instruments MPC Expansion Hazy Days is an expansion for Akai MPC Pro hardware and software that delivers laid-back, soulful hip-hop with a classic analog sound. It delivers over 100 kits packed with warm drums, dusty piano loops, modular synths, and treated vocal phrases, all designed to help you capture that hazy 90s sound or craft something entirely new with the same textured feel. Built in collaboration with producer Emeric Zubar (aka BLAKE), the sounds are created from real instruments and processed through analogue hardware to give them a gritty, vinyl-like quality. That means you’re not just getting digital samples, you’re getting layers of character that bring your beats to life.
Whether you’re chopping loops, layering drums, or dropping soulful vocal cuts into your track, everything has been designed to slot together easily. Each kit is mapped and organised for quick access, so there’s no need to dig through menus when inspiration hits. The expansion covers a broad sonic palette from mellow keys and lo-fi textures to sharp modular synth stabs and punchy, organic drums. It’s ideal for building beats that feel human and imperfect in all the right ways.
Hazy Days is also fully optimised for use with Akai Pro MPC hardware, including the MPC One+, MPC X Special Edition, and MPC Key 37. Installation is quick, and every sound loads instantly, fully mapped to your device’s layout. That means no delays, no configuration, just instant access to every sample and kit. Whether you’re creating in the studio or sketching ideas on the go, this expansion is built to support a smooth, uninterrupted workflow.
