Organic Loops are very excited to present Bill King Funk and Soul Keys – a timeless collection of iconic Keys from a man whose production credits include Janis Joplin and the Pointer Sisters. Provided for you 100% royalty free, this is the ultimate collection of Keys from one of the guys who was there in the 1960s, and stayed true to the sound.  

Bill King has toured both the east coast and west coast of America with soul bands for decades. Inspired by the music of the 1960s, including Otis Redding, the Markeys, Bobby ‘Blue’ Bland, Lowell Folsum and Wilson Pickett - Bill has dedicated his life to playing and producing music with Funk and Soul at its heart. He’ll take you on a journey back to the days when Ray Charles was playing a Wurlizter, Booker T. Jones was on the Hohner Clavichord C, and every club had a B3 Style organ, and an acoustic piano.

Bill King Funk and Soul Keys comes with over a gigabyte of inspiring licks and short but tasty nuggets of pure soul.  As if that wasn’t enough the collection was recorded and produced by Bills son Jesse King aka Dubmatix so each loop has been given the full Dubmatix rub. Expect to hear filter tweaked envelopes, fussy wah riffs and dubbed out verbs and delays. This is a collection you can dip in and out of for years to come as you discover the sonic treasure it has to offer.

Showcasing the seminal instruments of the 1960s era, you’ll find 470 Loops with solid-gold Funk and Soul throughout - warm B3 Styles, vintage Organs, snappy Clavichords, Pianos, Harpsichords and assorted Keys aplenty. Each folder is organised into riffs and chords for your production pleasure - crafted, played and recorded in 24 Bit quality, capturing the warm nuances of these vintage classics.
