Rejected Loops: Motown Horns

Welcome! This is the first sample pack in a series of unused loops that I've produced and recorded. This pack focuses on horn sounds you'd hear from the Motown era. The pack features a three-horn arrangement of trumpet, tenor sax, and trombone with tasty leads, stabs, and background lines. They're recorded in a more old-school, raw type of sound (TG2 preamp, FATSO tape emulation, Singular Audio f48 condenser mic) with little processing and effects.

Specs: Key of E-flat major, 90 BPM. 48kHz/24-bit wav. Most tracks will loop nicely as a two or four-bar phrase, but a couple I let the releases "breathe" for a more natural sound.

These loops are Royalty-Free, but do not repackage or upload loops without my permission. Feel free to tag me on social media (@jonmanness) if your music features these loops so I can hear all the creative ways you’ve used them!
