Soul & Chill

Soundtrack Loops intros Soul & Chill Song Makers - Veteran Soundtrack Loops producer Loop Theory (Melancholy Chill Hop, Tokyo Downtempo, Trip Hop, Rejuvenation, the Chillout series...) presents Soul & Chill, a construction kit with a distinct modern/vintage hybrid vibe. Starting with the drums, the sonic reference point lives in the 80s, with instantly recognizable and time-tested period samples and production values. Eighteen drum fills are included here to cover production details, and this is where the 80s vibe really shines through clearly, with vintage synth drum accents and tight gating at the fore. The beats themselves are modern—sparse and tight so they can work for the chillwave / R&B cause. A pianos folder contains a host of simple, mostly single-note acoustic piano runs that tend toward bright major keys to make obvious pop statements with a bright cast that works perfectly with the drums. The synth folder is packed—you get a hundred solid parts comprising basses, leads, pads and arpeggios, all with positive drive and halcyon days hardware synth magic. The Loop Theory approach to crafting music construction kits is clean, consistent, and aimed at users who want fast, easy, and great-sounding tracks. The sounds can stand by themselves, they play well with others, and they're part of an ever-expanding presence at Soundtrack Loops.
