Reviewer: David Roman | Rating: "crisp grooves and exotic touches" Back to Hip Hop City product details

Bangin' hip-hop loop CDs are not hard to fish out these days, but that's largely because Big Fish keeps stocking the pond with titles like Heatseekers, Off the Hook Hip-Hop, Club Hip-Hop, and many others. One of their latest sets, Hip-Hop City, focuses on the kind of crisp grooves and exotic touches associated with Jay-Z, Roc Raida, J-Kwan and De La Soul. Arranged in 50 folders that contain both construction kits and individual hits, Hip-Hop City features a storehouse of programmed MPC-style beats, but it goes well beyond breaks: you get kotos, scratches, electric and grand piano figures, orchestra hits, vocal snippets, guitars, tabla drums and more. Big Fish supplied with us two full construction kits, in both WAV and REX format, on this issue's CD-ROM, so go ahead and check out the loops and hits for yourself.
