The Nextmen have teamed up with Loopmasters to bring you a healthy dose of the mechanics behind their sound, including "lashings of ingredients to spice up the mix of producers working in Hip Hop, Reggae, Club or Soul Music".

Dom Search from the Nextmen says: "We've put together a large selection of original loops, hits and phrases for you in this collection, all made The Nextmen way; that is to say with a whole load of lo-fi attitude, stellar processing and in-your-face mixing. Every element of this selection was created with one eye on the clubs. We've used vintage guitars, dirty old synths, mos-fet compressors, mellow EQs and a good few studio secrets to bring you ready-to-use parts that should slot nicely into your own productions. We've covered both retro and contemporary drum loops and hits, buzzing basslines made from layers of contrasting sounds, party-vibe lead lines and vocals, all spread over a nice range of useful tempos. We hope you enjoy using these parts as much as we did making them..."
