Benny Reid - Live Jazzy Hip Hop brings the sound of live studio performances to producers looking for organic, soulful, and musical material for hip hop and sample-based production. With loops playing between 80 and 138 BPM, this pack is ideal for Boom Bap, Jazz Rap, Lo-Fi Hip Hop, Neo-Soul, R&B, Soulful Hip Hop, and sample-based production.

Benny Reid is a boundary-pushing producer, composer, and saxophonist whose work lives at the intersection of jazz, hip-hop, and film. A recording artist with Fat Beats and Concord Records, and a proud endorser of Selmer Saxophones and Vandoren, Reid first gained recognition through his jazz recordings with Concord before making waves with his Dconstructed series, breathing new life into classic hip-hop records through acoustic, sample-free reinterpretations. 

From collaborating with hip-hop legends such as Nas, DJ Premier, and Pete Rock to producing The Infamous LIVE with Havoc of Mobb Deep, Reid’s music honors the legacy of hip-hop while reimagining its future. On screen, his compositions have appeared in major films, national campaigns, and Emmy-nominated series such as Supreme Team. Whether scoring for screen, producing for artists, or performing with icons, Benny Reid’s work is a testament to fearless creativity and genre-blending artistry.

Built around Benny's experience as a professional musician, producer, and saxophonist,

Live Jazzy Hip Hop features original performances on Selmer alto, soprano, tenor, and baritone saxophones, Yamaha flute, Yamaha piano, PRS guitar, Fender Precision bass, Sonor drums, and percussion. The performances combine jazz harmony, soulful musicianship, and hip-hop sensibility to create material designed to be chopped, flipped, rearranged, pitched, layered, and transformed. 

Benny Reid - Live Jazzy Hip Hop was recorded through a professional studio setup centered around a Universal Audio Apollo 8 and Focusrite Clarett OctoPre, with analog processing from the McDSP APB-16 and APA Audio Juggernaut Solo. Microphones include the Neumann M 149 and a pair of AKG C 414s, capturing the detail, warmth, dynamics, and character of the live performances.

Rather than creating generic "jazz-style" loops, Benny approached the collection as a musician and producer, creating original performances and musical ideas with the sampling process in mind. Expect soulful melodies, jazzy harmonic material, live grooves, expressive instrumental phrases, and organic textures ready to become the foundation of your next production.
