IN HER ONGOING stint as one of the UK’s finest underground soul singers, Ms Vane has worked with everyone from Mike Skinner to Gnarls Barkley, standing out from the crowd with her raw, full-bodied vocal style, and supreme gift for insightful lyricism. In this 891 MB sample pack, you get a rich and rewarding resource of her rootsy and funky singing. It’s all presented perfectly as four different songs, with tempos ranging from 85 to 106bpm. Each track has fresh direction, from ballsy, ‘bang it out’ moments, to whispers and backing takes, there’s a wide array of everything from lead loops, choruses, and adlibs to rifle through, within each. All the key-labeled performances in this solid gold selection pack punches and tender tones, when needed. Smooth, indeed.

VERDICT 8.0
