"This is the latest in the excellent Total series which already boasts the impressive Total House and Total Drum & Bass. This one lives up to the reputation Zero-G have built over the years as one of the finest sample CD producers on the planet. It follows the usual Total format with one CD jammed full of breaks and beats, the second full of individual hits, instrument riffs, vocal snapshots, FX etc. The third CD is everything in .wav format for instantly importing into your computer.



The beats are rough, heavy hip hop beats with loads of attitude. There are nice rolling jazz style beats, phat and punchy style beats, dirty grainy style beats and percussive lively style beats. Basically there's something for everyone on here, totally hip hop. Beats range from 65 to 125 bpm and there are roughly 400 loops!



The second CD features drum fills, individual drum kicks, snares and all types of percussion. Acoustic and electric basses follow with loads of riffs and individual tones and FX. There's also a brass section with sexy sax, trumpet stabs and riffs and the acoustic and electric guitar section has nice riffs and licks. Keyboards and synths follow, then strings, flutes, scary and special FX, vocals, vinyl scratches and effects and, finally, some grooves. In fact, everything you might need to create that killer hip hop backing track. This CD is definitely on the must have list, it's so full and varied and well worth the asking price."
