Soundscan 08 - Jazz & Latin Drum Loops - V2 (Audio, WAV, Acid, AIFF, Akai, EXS24, HALion, MachFive, Reason 2, REX)

Jazz and Latino Drum Loops is full to the brim with classic jazz, samba, salsa and bossa rhythms that no programming will ever emulate. The Jazz section features essential ride patterns, with variations, sensational Jazz Breakbeats & brush loops. The Latino section ranges from the most intimate Bossa and the irresistible groove of Zouk to the flourishes of Samba and the rare Songo beats.


Out of the 250 million people in the United States, about 25 million of them play an instrument of some kind, or used to when they were in school and would like to pick up where they left off. Another 30 million or so sing in a church choir, a barbershop quartet, or at the very least, in the shower.

That means that there are over 50 million folks adults who would like to play their instrument or sing better than they do now. After all, everyone wants to improve his or her skills, no matter what the field.

Before the advent of the Internet, if adults wanted to learn to play a musical instrument, they had to schedule a lesson time with a teacher in a store or studio or if they were fortunate, in their own home with a teacher who would come each week for a lesson.

That meant doing it after work, driving to a store or studio, dealing with transportation, babysitting, illness, cancellations, and so on. Very few adults who started lessons that way continued very long, as it was a continual hassle.

But with the development of the World Wide Web, music teachers have gone online to offer lessons to adults in the comfort and convenience of their own homes. No scheduling problems, no transportation issues, no cancellations none of the problems inherent in traditional lessons.

Here are a few of the many courses available for adults online:
