Equipped Music is a sound design label specializing in royalty-free sample libraries for music producers. Founded by Erik Bergknut Svahn, the company grew out of his earlier sampling venture e-LAB, which he started in the early 1990s and which contributed sounds to Propellerhead's Reason 1.0 factory library. In 2005, Equipped Music & Publishing AB acquired the rights to e-LAB's catalog, sounds, and trademarks, and continued the lineage as a dedicated sample library brand.
The label's catalog spans hip hop, jazz, funk, soul, house, and downtempo, with releases distributed through retailers such as Loopmasters, Loopcloud, and Big Fish Audio. Notable series include Slo' Motion - Tokyo Soundscapes, a three-volume downtempo collection blending field recordings of Tokyo nightlife with instrumentation; Loungin House; Nu Jazz Funk; Breakbeat Jazz; and Classic Hip Hop. Packs are typically delivered in WAV, REX2, and Reason ReFill formats, and combine loops with one-shot content aimed at organic, instrument-driven production styles.
Equipped Music has 16 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Lo-Fi Hip Hop, Action, and Jazz.
