Frollen Music Library proudly presents Lovely Beats To Study To - Vol II, the highly anticipated follow-up to their celebrated first volume. This collection features 15 meticulously crafted compositions that expand on the library’s signature sound while drawing fresh inspiration from vintage Mood Music and Muzak, with subtle nods to minimalist and darker hip-hop sensibilities that anchor the atmospheric explorations.
Where Volume I delved into the golden era of Hip Hop with cinematic influences, Volume II explores the lush, atmospheric textures of mid-century library records — but with that essential freak factor that sets F.M.L.’s compositions apart. This sample pack weaves through the liminal spaces between nostalgia and innovation, creating the perfect sonic backdrop for focused sampling, creative endeavours, or simply drifting into contemplative states.
The F.M.L. house band returns with elevated musicianship, showcasing the warm embrace of Fender Rhodes electric piano, crystalline Vibraphone tones, intricate Bass patterns that dance beneath the surface, and delicately balanced Kangaroo-Hide Drums that never intrude but always support.
As with all Frollen Music Library releases, every sound has been captured with uncompromising attention to detail. Utilising their signature combination of vintage and analog recording techniques, all performances were meticulously processed through classic preamps and hardware processors, ensuring the warmth and character that has become synonymous with the F.M.L. sound while maintaining pristine clarity. Each composition stands as a testament to Frollen's meticulous craftsmanship, meticulously labelled with BPM and key information for seamless integration into the producers' own sonic explorations.
