The Seven Sisters: Folk Nation Vol 2

'The Seven Sisters: Folk Nation Vol 2' from Loopmasters continues the folk journey from sea shanties to the traditional folk sounds of the south coast. With a remarkably broad tempo range of 74 to 152 BPM and diverse stylistic content, this collection is perfect for folk-specific productions while encouraging easy experimentation across a wide range of other genres.

This pack contains 3 different songs. Hidden Beach is a new piece inspired by Kipling's poem and ode to the Sussex coast, drawing heavily on jazz while retaining a folk strain from a Saxon lute. Lemony travels from The Copper Family to Post Punk's Scritti Politti, with Indian drums and muscular finger-picked guitar driving the song into funk and jazz. The Devil And The Farmer is a Sussex standard turned into a 6/8 jig or shuffle, with heavy funk bass and guitar riding over synthetic drones and percussion.

The accompaniment includes acoustic, electric, and classical guitar, electric bass, acoustic bass, Saxon lute, mandolin, autoharp, and glockenspiel. Featured keyboards include the Roland Jupiter-8 and Juno-106, while the synths - programmed from scratch - include bass, pads, lead melodic lines, and a host of electro-percussion and effects. A gorgeous set of female vocals is also included as a bonus.
