Rhythm Roulette: Kenny Beats (feat. Key!) | Mass Appeal"

Music is becoming such a commodity, that it no longer needs to be created in the original organic sense that we all seem to think of.  We may picture a lonely producer sitting at home in front of his computer, pounding away for hours trying to create something fresh, but perhaps he got started by purchasing the most basic parts of his song.  This is not a fiction, this is reality, and it is becoming a very real possibility.  Instead of buy music through the Amazon or iTunes store, we can gift it to one another by buying a gift card and giving it to a friend. This trend has carried over to beat makers, who can now purchase essential parts of their loops online.  The Loop Loft is an online resource for those who create music using loop based technology.   It saves producers from having to sample music on their own – if they just wanted to get started right away with live remixing and other types of spontaneous musical creation.  The company is selling gift cards at levels from 25 dollars to 100 dollar which can be redeemed online.  It’s just too bad that they don’t offer free alternative, since many loops can be found online for little to nothing. http://www.digitaldjtips.com/2013/01/namm-2013-loops-to-go-from-loop-loft/
