With Westside Underground and Underground Soundlab, producer and multi-instrumentalist Henry Willis (aka lukecage) illuminated the darkest corners of hip-hop's street doctrine. On Platinum Theory and Diamond Cuts, Henry brought the club to your desktop, dressing up his sessions with flossy beats and global consciousness. On Cinematic Funk: Urban Tone Poems, lukecage turns the studio lights down low and revisits his jazz and classic R&B roots to full effect. The main focus here is progressive: double bass parts, delicious acoustic piano musings, overdriven 70's fusion piano in righteous Zawinul homage, and acoustic drum kit sounds and percussion sections—in addition to all the conked vinylisms, heavy Akai beats, and multicultural footnotes that every rekkid hunter and producer appreciates. Fifteen construction kits will put you on the road to reason in a day. Once enlightened, branch out the funk and hook it up to our whole Loops and Samples catalog. Inside ACID software, our hip-hop titles make an endless urban soundtrack that will never fail to inspire rhyme.
