Future Music Review of A Guy Called Gerald
AGCG (Gerald Simpson to his nearest and dearest) has delivered a new pack of atmos, bass loops, chord progressions and drum loops. I often question the difference between a batch of samples by a ‘big name’ and one with an unknown. In this case the ‘big name’ has delivered the goods in a nod-worthy fashion. Some of the drum loops are truly awesome and I’ll be filing them away quicker than you can say “The sounds herein contain patterns that create specific air movement sequence in earth atmosphere used at the correct pressure. The sounds will transport you to the groove simulator first level: the holographic key to die hold activation.” And that’s from the mouth of Gerald himself!
All the usual samplers are catered for as you’ve come to expect. My top choice of edgy soundscapey retro-progressive twisty Techno collection of the month.

Verdict: 9/10
