Heart of Africa vol. 2
Heart of Africa Volume Two features rare performances recorded live at a two week tribal competition in
Kenya. Authentic choir and vocal shouts, chants and polyrhythmic percussion ensemble grooves from the Maasai,
Kikuyu, Meru, Pokot, and Nandi peoples. A collection of powerfully primal and untamed tribal ensemble phrases
and SFX that perfectly compliment the instruments and loops from Volume one. Presented in song construction
format.


The Heart of Africa series has been produced with the same standard of excellence as the renown Heart of Asia
library.


"Spectrasonics has unleashed another world music monster in Heart of Africa...The emotion, energy and spontaneity
of the performances is wonderful...The vocal performance samples in Vol. 2 are strongly evocative...a vocal solo
might include yodels, gargles, or blurbles a an integral part of the line: We're talking flavor here...the tapes
were recorded on location, but the sound is surprisingly clean and consistent throughout...The fact that you're
hearing segments from one song rather than isolated excerpts gives you a lot more ways to build a piece. you don't
have to just grab a two-bar bit and loop it...An amazing assortment of musical experiences that any sampler owner
can use...if you'd like to spice up your tracks with a dose of real African flavor, it's hard to see how you could
go wrong with Heart of Africa vol.2"
