Drum Loops HD 2 released - New Drum Loops app for iOS, a Drummer for GB - Published on 08/04/15

Go Independent Records has released Drum Loops HD 2, the follow up for its sucessful Drum Loops HD app for iOS musicians. A totally new app with a modern (iOS 7/8) design and all new loops, fills and samples to be copied to a sequencer. together with the previous release, it is the only real live played and purpose built drum loops and fills library to work together perfectly with Apple's Garageband. Any loop copied to GB is pasted as an Apple Loop, following GB tempo.

The Hague, Netherlands - Go Independent Records have announced that they have recorded, built and released the perfect follow up app for Drum Loops HD, it is called Drum Loops HD 2 appropriately. And for every G.I. Records release there is a 'try before you buy' version with one chapter fully functional, in this case the Blues chapter. It is a free app called, Drum Loops HD 2 Light.

It was announced last year and went into production in 2015. After having updated Drum Loops HD many times and having added content G.I. Records decided to not throw in some new styles but to release a second full blown drum loops and fills app with a complete set of loops in all new styles! In this new app musicians can find: Blues, Rock, Country, Reggae, Bossa Nova, Samba, Fusion and so called Super Dry Loops, a seperate chapter with loops recorded in the 70's fashion, a dead small room with an intimate direct sound.

All other loops and fills are on offer in two mixes, a close-miked mix (with very little room sound) and a fat roomy mix with distance mics mixed into the sound, both mixes work in perfect sync. All of this gives the user lots of creative possibilities to build a live played drum track in a sequencer in very little time. And, of course, all drums were performed by Hollands number one studio drummer, Hans Eijkenaar in a state of the art facility.

Furthermore Drum Loops HD 2 is a perfect tool for musicians to use as a play along device and for live performance as well, since all loops play forever within the app itself. Users around the globe have attested to the great feel and sound of the recorded loops. G.I. Records is a slim and fast operating company that wants to know what users want and most previous updates or releases were based on user feedback. The content of Drum Loops HD 2 was thus uniquely based on user feedback and user requests!

There is a vast amount of loops, fills, samples and even ending drum fills on offer in bpms that range from 70 bpm to 260 bpm, depending on style and feel. And styles can be mixed resulting creative use of loops and fills from various chapters, perfect for song writers!
Where most other apps offer only programmed drum sounds, Drum Loops HD gives users more than 700 drum loops, fills, samples, crashes, and ending drum fills, all played for real and recorded by Hans Eijkenaar, at Sound Vision Studios in Arnhem. Drum Loops HD 2 has been tested with (a.o.) Garageband, Music Studio, Auria, Multitrack DAW, Cubasis and works on any iPad, iPhone or iPod touch with iOS 7 and upwards. And the new design will make the IOS 8 users feel very comfortable since it was built with the latest IOS in mind.

Another place for Drum Loops HD 2 is within the private music school or in the back pocket of the private musical instrument teacher. Many have have let the producers know that that they let their students play along with Drum Loops HD (first release) , making the experience for students totally real and making them perform better plus encouraging students to study more!
