Reminiscent of 1970's soul music and combined with new millennium Hip Hop, Jazz and R&B, Neo-Soul has been steadily conquering clubs and airwaves the world over. It all started in the mid-1990's, when a handful of new artists looked back to more traditional sources of inspiration. Veteran producers and songwriters Josquin des Pres and Bernard Torelli team up here to deliver the definitive Neo Soul experience. A host of top players--Carl Evans on keyboards (Stevie Wonder, Barry White, Fattburger), David Stark on guitar (Rick James, Teena Marie), and numerous others-- heat up this simmering cauldron of construction kits, oozing Hip Hop and R&B at an ethereal level and celebrating soul music's resurgence with over 50 steamy compositions. Whether you're a remixer, DJ, producer, songwriter, rapper, sound designer, or just searching for rich smooth flavored grooves, this collection will enhance your sound library with just the right amount of sweat, longing and passion. |
