Explore the authentic roots of Reggae music with Reggae Journey 2. This volume captures the classic sound of Roots Reggae. Filled with suitably skanky guitar and organ rhythms, and deep bass lines, Reggae Journey is inspired by the artists that bought Reggae to the wider world. This is the sound and style that burst out of Jamaica during the 1970s.
The library features five extensive construction kits. With 3 GB of samples built from 600 loops, each kit includes 2 main musical parts, a break section (great for linking the main parts), and dedicated intro and outro parts. Individual loops are up to 30 seconds long, bringing a real sense of performance to each of the main song sections. This makes it easy to create full-length song arrangements. Original tempos range from 64 to 130 BPM. Elastik's powerful toolset makes it easy to adjust both tempo and key to suit your project's needs.
Electric guitars and electric bass come in DI and amp versions. The former make it easy to add your own processing, while the latter give you instantly mix-ready sounds, with effects like spring reverb, chorus, delay, and wah-wah for those distinctive Reggae guitar tones. Acoustic pianos, organs, clavinets, synthesizers, and brass stabs are also provided, along with some additional guitar FX loops to bring your arrangements to life. Drums are available as premixed loops as well as single tracks for bass drum (mics in and out), snare drum (top and bottom mics), hihat, toms, cymbals, ride, overheads and room. Percussion elements and dub effects are also included for additional sonic spice.
Reggae Journey 2 is a perfect complement to the first Reggae Journey library. It will inspire songwriters looking to explore the authentic vibe of the Roots Reggae sound. The library will also give media composers an excellent starting point for their next film, TV or game project that needs to capture this classic sound. If you want to take your Reggae back to its roots, Reggae Journey 2 is just what you need.
