5Pin Media invites you to kick back and soak up the sublime intoxicating tones of Psychedelic Soul & Downtempo courtesy of the multitalented Richard Raymond II.
Â
Richard Raymond II is a producer and multi-instrumentalist from Chicago, IL. Raymond relishes in all things psychedelic and likes to occupy the space between notes that slower tempos often offer up.
For the bass and music elements Psychedelic Soul & Downtempo was recorded using primarily analog instruments, namely the Korg SV-1, Roland Strings, Wurlitzer Organ, Arturia Micro Brute, Glockenspiel, Fender Rascal Bass, Washburn Semi-Hollow Bass, Fender Stratocaster and an array of analog effects pedals.

Moving onto the drums… mere words are not enough to describe the variety and sheer quality on offer here! Psychedelic Soul & Downtempo features 100 full acoustic drum loops out of 502 drum loops in total, tracked live at Wholesome Studio C7, in Chicago’s north side. All of the loops were recorded in a tightly treated room on an all birch Tama kit using one of three snares: a Ludwig Supraphonic (1967), Stewart (1970’s), and a dampened Tama. Raymond believes being on time is more emotional than punctual…it’s okay to be a little early, or a little late, so long as everything feels right. The drums alone are nothing short of sublime on every level and would be at home in any producer’s toolkit regardless of genre. For example, the way they have been grouped according to snare type, makes for easy cross matching and editing in a drum track.
Psychedelic Soul & Downtempo weighs in at 5.8Gb with a total 766 loops, 179 One-shots, 981 Multi-samples, 18 Sampler Patches, 240 MIDI files and a Live 10 Project featuring 25 Sampler based Instrument Racks. Please see the detailed specs for the number of files for each element.
