When I think of Ska music I always (don't ask why!) I tend to think of Madness and the Fun Boy Three from yonks ago. Nothing wrong with that is there? And Ska music is great to listen to.
As for the Rocksteady genre, well 'Rocksteady is a music genre that originated in Jamaica around 1966. A successor of ska and a precursor to reggae, rocksteady was the dominant style of music in Jamaica for nearly two years, performed by many of the artists who helped establish reggae.'
(Thank goodness for good old web info...)
As always, it's heartwarming when Loopmasters publish another in their popular Vibes series and it's hard to believe this is number 12 already.
It's a treat indeed and is 'head and shoulders' up there with all the top packs.

One-shots included are 100 drum hits, 61 brass hits, 20 melodica hits, 16 guitar hits, 14 electric bass hits, 9 acoustic bass hits, 7 organ hits, 4 electric piano hits and 2 ukulele hits. Also included are 687 Rex2 files and 140 soft sampler patches (for Halion, NNXT, EXS24, Kontakt and SFX.
You are in good hands because Loopmasters tell us that seven studio musicians featured in creating this pack: 2 drummers, an upright and electric bassist, a keyboardist/organist, a guitarist, a saxophonist and a trombonist. Music was studio recorded live in isolated booths using vintage equipment/neve desk. The featured instruments are electric guitar, ukulele, double bass, electric bass, Hammond organ, clavinet, piano, melodica, saxophones, trombone and drums. All are available within in both one-shot and loop form.
Everything is nice and tuneful and so inspirational to use.
