His original plugins combined with authentic oldskool hardware, valve preamps and reel to reel tape will give that nu-retro shine to your rhythm section. Have no fear, there are no useless scratchy pseudo-amens here, just beautifully sliced and fully saturated funk breaks for a legion of Drum & Bass styles".
