NY Loft Classics £30

700MB of disco house crossover loops and shots, inspired by the work of David Mancuso. The pack comprises 20 drum loop construction kits, 20 FX hits, and 20 ‘song starter’ construction kits, with instrumentation including drums, bass (both synthesised and electric), Rhodes, clav, piano, guitar, synths and strings. The song starters are quite repetitive in terms of groove and rhythm (the dictates of the genre are largely to blame for that), and brief at only four bars long, but well produced and vibey, with faultless vintage disco authenticity. www.loopmasters.com
