Besides listening to that beautiful music, library music if often a nice sample resource for Beatmakers... so, did I... and here we are back with a new release on showup records:
BOB FLAPS - On The Move [showup records – showup 10lp]
Producer, record collector, rare groove compiler, mastering engineer, drum breaks archivist and avid beat builder. All of this applies to Bob Flaps!
"On the Move" is a continuous, atmospheric instrumental album, packed with organic grooves and samples, warm spacey sounds, which merge mosaic-like and seamlessly into each other.
Flaps' signature drum grooves and sounds are unmistakably, originating from his own collection of well over 5000 drum loops!
All the beats sound deep, dope and are lovingly arranged down to the smallest detail and provide for continuous head nodding...
"On the Move" is full of soundtrack & jazz melancholy, paired with a fresh breeze of Golden-Era-HipHop, spiced with the finest herbs of all music genres.
Bob Flaps takes us on a journey into the endless expanses of his Groove-galaxy and we glide and slide to an undiscovered planet that seems mystical, but is full of beauty and surprise! Newfangled phenomena like autotune or trapbeats are not part of this sound tapestry, which is woven consequently, providing us over 30 minutes with tension and drama!
