Ultimate Breaks & Beats -- The Instrumentals Vol 2

Temporarily Out Of Stock

Add Item to Want List
CD (Item 492289) Traffic, 2009 -- Condition: New Copy

A massive second set of grooves in the Ultimate Breaks & Beats series -- new versions of 70s soul and funk classics originally used to great fame as samples in old school hip hop tracks! The music has a sound that's a lot tighter than our description -- a sock-solid groove that comes from live, small combo instrumentation -- handled here by Mr Chop and a host of hip UK musicians! The drums are plenty heavy throughout -- breaking hard in the way you'd want with these old school cuts -- and if anything, the instrumentation's even leaner than the original recordings -- especially since these versions don't have any vocals at all, which makes for a core focus on the best sample-heavy elements of the tunes. Instrumentation includes Hammond, Fender Rhodes, guitars, and a bit of horns -- and titles include "Papa Was Too", "Give It Up Or Turn It Loose", "Sport", "Let A Woman Be A Woman", "I'm Gonna Get You", "Hand Clapping Song", "You Got What I Need", "T Plays It Cool", "Rock Creek Park", and "It's My Thing".  © 1996-2009, Dusty Groove America, Inc.
