Prime Loops Release ‘NYC Piano Sessions’ With over 600mb of mastered, 24-bit royalty-free audio content, NYC Piano Sessions delivers over 200 uplifting Piano Progressions for R&B, hip hop, pop, dance, rock, blues, jazz or classical music. Flexible tempo’s range from 60 and 190Bpm, and this sample pack is available in all the most popular formats for your favourite production platform. For the creation of ‘NYC Piano Sessions’ Prime Loops recruited a highly skilled producer, engineer & multi-instrumentalist Richard "Wilx" Wilkinson. Wilx is also the author and engineer behind Prime Loops' best selling sample pack releases "R&B Progressions" and "Guitar Anthology", so there's a high possibility that you have come across his work already!
When we asked Wilx about the main idea behind his latest sample pack he simply answered:
"I wanted to get a big variety of very usable loops. Rather than post-processing everything to an inch of its life & squeezing a potentially flexible loop into only one genre niche, I’ve left the loops relatively unprocessed. There’s a good selection of simpler, building-block loops – like the blues loops which you can stick together to get a 12-bar blues sequence. And there’s also a decent amount of loops with more ‘character’ which will hopefully serve to add some inspiration for your next production."
This sample pack has a wide range of stylish Piano progressions ready for your Music Productions, TV & Film Soundtracks, Background Compositions, Game Themes, Animation Projects, Sync Music and a lot’s more. Formats include: Wav, Rex2 Loops, Apple Loops, MPC Format, Acid Loops, Ableton Live Pack, Stylus RMX Loops, and many more!
