Loopmasters Dramatic Cinema 2 £45

The sequel to Dramatic Cinema (9/10,

256) delivers another 1.75GB of loops and 2GB of one-shots and phrases for producers of soundtracks, downtempo and ambient. The loops (drums, percussion, flutes etc) are satisfyingly long, allowing for development and expression, and the one-shots (adding guitars, harps, FX and more) comprise a smorgasbord of inspirational bits and bobs. Production has been approached with sensitivity, the combo of electronic and acoustic/ electric instrumentation is wholly effective, and the results are stunning, surpassing even the excellent original.
