Computer Music Review Of Jim Rivers
This is the second release in the Global Underground Sample Series. Jim Rivers has produced a slower tempo, deep house and tech house style pack this time. Although there are only just over 150 unique samples, they're all well done. The drum loops alone make it a worthwhile investment. Jim demonstrates a very advanced ability with percussive loops. The grooves vary tremendously, but he's able to pull off the loosest shuffles that will no doubt translate to some seriously heavy dancefloor action. There isn't a great deal of synth work, but you'll find stacks of inspiration among these diverse and well-produced samples.
Verdict: 8/10
