XO Expansion: Phonk

High-impact House for peak time energy on the dance floor.

Tech House runs on drum machine DNA. The 909, 808, 707, and 606 laid the blueprint, and their kick, clap, and hat signatures still define the genre's low end and swing. Where Deep House and Afro House lean warm and atmospheric, Tech House stays mechanical and built for peak-time rather than the warm-up. Sounds are resampled and pushed through modulation and saturation, and FM-synthesized percussion adds a harder, metallic edge.

Sub-heavy 909 kicks hit like a pulse under the crowd, punchy acoustic tops cut through even the loudest room, and metallic percussion keeps the energy climbing all night. Built to hold up from small laptop speakers to a full club system. With 75 presets and 205 samples fully editable in XO's sequencer, this expansion delivers club-ready Tech House drum patterns, presets, and samples built for a modern beat maker workflow.
