I’ll have to do this review a little differently to the other boyinaband.com reviews – The Pure Chronic Hip Hop Grooves pack from Primeloops.com isn’t a set of individual samples, so I won’t be making a song out of it. Instead it has taken a different approach.
Comprising enough loops to make up 11 tracks – all the loops are there ready, you just have to decide their arrangement. It’s a construction kit for an album’s worth of hip hop songs.
Introduction
This method means ease of use is on of the biggest advantages here. While the more seasoned producers may find this useful for creating quick tracks if they have deadlines coming up, I think the people that would find this most useful are beginners.
Here is a chance to get some really high quality (The string loops in the more orchestral hip hop tracks are absolutely lush in this pack) loops to put together a song that, provided you understand what a “tempo” is, will sound professional. It’s a brilliant place to start; even vocalists with no producing experience could put together a decent track with this pack.
All that said, the loops are all very usable separately, especially the drum loops which are ace, so if you just consider the collections they are in suggestions you can be a lot more creative with this pack.
The Sounds
The best sounds in here as I mentioned earlier are the orchestral ones. You can just feel the quality of the strings, which makes all the difference. There are a variety though – from some really dark and dirty Gangsta Hip Hop loops to some more light and airy tracks which could almost be RnB if the beat wasn’t so head-noddingly hip hop.
Overall
If you were to combine this pack with some of your own synth samples or existing loops I think that is what would give you the most out of it – to me it would be best as an inspirational tool rather than a complete construction kit – different people would find the pack useful in different ways.
I think the people that would find this most useful are:
- Seasoned Producers with deadlines to hit
- Producers who want a bit of a kick start when they feel uninspired
- Beginners who want professional sounding tracks
- Vocalists who want more control over their song than just one beat looped for the whole thing
- People who want a top up of high quality hip hop loops
