Categories and Loops
DRUMS (350); BASS (178); JAZZ PIANO (30); FUNK PIANO (30), SYNTH (38), EFFECTS (40); MISC. STUFF (80).
Old school breakbeats, jungle style grooves for R&B, basslines, FX (sirens, heartbeats, scary noises..) and what can only be described as 'stuff' (weird trumpet lines, and disembodied guitar licks), this is an inspiring collection and one that sounds amazing on the Motif platform.
Hip Hop Shop leans unashamedly towards the rhythm section with well over 300 drum loops ranging from classic breakbeats, to humanistic funk grooves, 808-style beats, intricate R&B loops, and much more. Drums are complemented by almost 200 separate basslines reflecting hip hop's wide stylistic range from filtered synth to jazzy upright bass to anchoring bass guitar.
There's also plenty of innovative keyboard parts, from bits of jazz piano, to snaky solo synth lines, heavy on the portamento, to the multi-instrument category of 'Mix' which offers a ragbag of atmospherics over which to lay a beat or use as instant background for an existing track. All extremely useful stuff.
Motif itself has become something of a go-to platform for hip hop producers over the past decade and the native Yamaha Motif Pattern formats breath new life into these beats.
The original .MIDs automatically come in the download and will work on all DAW platforms including Cubase, GarageBand, Pro Tools, Logic, Acid, Reason, Ableton Live, FL Studio, Live, and Cakewalk etc.
