PeteStrumentals

Seventy minutes of masterclass boom bap instrumentals. Dusty jazz loops, signature SP-1200 swing, and the warm grit of a New York midnight.

The ultimate late-night beat tape from the man who practically invented the soulful hip-hop sound.

A sophisticated, soulful cool that feels like a private midnight conversation between a sampler and a jazz record.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The way the bassline on 'Play Dis Only at Night' feels like it's physically pushing through a thick fog.
The crisp, filtered snare snap that anchors the soulful vocal loop on 'A Little Soul'.
The sudden, bright horn flourish that cuts through the dusty atmosphere of 'Pete's Jazz'.
