Loopmasters has introduced a powerful, vintage-inspired sample pack that journeys back to the golden era of African groove music. The royalty-free Sankofa Afro Funk is where West African polyrhythms collided with American funk, soul and jazz to create the electrifying sound known as Afro-Funk.
Inspired by legendary Afro-funk pioneers such as Osibisa and Ebo Taylor from Ghana, Fela Kuti, Tony Allen and Orlando Julius from Nigeria, this pack delivers hypnotic rhythms, deep syncopated bass feels, wah-driven guitars and bold horn sections built for dance floors, film scoring and authentic Afro-centric productions.
Produced by Philip “Stucky Kojo” Owusu of DNA Music Planet Records, with blazing guitars from the iconic Owura Kay, commanding horns by Edwin Adu-Adjei, and vocal performances from Stucky Kojo himself, Sankofa Afro Funk is packed with live-recorded guitars, saxophones, trumpets, trombones, congas, bongos, tambourines and layered percussion.
The Loopcloud-ready pack is available to purchase for £34.95 GBP. It contains a total of 374 loops and 42 one shots.
