Looking to work some authentic live keys into your latest joint? Make Hip Hop Keyboard Chops your first port of call.

The centrepiece of Looptone’s vibe-steeped 700MB+ sample library is an extensive collection of acoustic and electric piano loops, performed by crack UK keyboardist George Cooper, whose recording resumé takes in sessions with the likes of MF Doom, Slum Village, Abstract Orchestra, Young RJ and Illa J, not to mention U2, Joss Stone and Hans Zimmer. The E-Piano Loops folder keeps things mellow with a diverse array of smoky riffs, vibey progressions and sparkling top lines; while the Piano Loops span the soulful gamut, from jazzy acrobatics and rolling blues workouts to ’crate-dug’ licks, wistful high-sustain musings and everything in between.

George is also a master of the Minimoog synth, which has been put through its paces in the creation of a wealth of filter-happy basses, G-funk leads and intense FX. And to provide a bit – well, a lot, actually – of context, 17 super groovy bass guitar loops and 109 dextrously delivered acoustic drum kit loops have been included to compliment the keys, but are, of course, highly employable in their own right, too.

Matching up consummate performances with stellar production values, Hip Hop Keyboard Chops is guaranteed to provide endless harmonic and melodic inspiration for your hip-hop, soul, funk, house and R&B projects.

In detail, the pack contains 727MB of content, comprising 418 audio files in pristine 24-bit stereo WAV format.
