"...In experimenting with the WAV files using Sony Acid Pro, a number of things stood out. First, the quality of the acoustic bass playing is excellent. Chip Jackson's playing has 'attitude' written all the way through it, and whatever musical context these loops are used in they will add a distinctive character of their own..."
"...the sound of the bass is huge and feels very 'live'. Of course, some of the loops are laid back and cool, but there are just as many that have a tremendous amount of energy, with loads of finger noise to add character - just take care with your speakers, as the bottom end of this lot will really get those cones moving!"
"... The other loops provided are equally inspiring ...There is easily enough material here to construct complete rhythm sections and some full backing tracks without dipping into other libraries"
".... Perhaps the most interesting feature is the range of musical styles covered..."
"What is really impressive is the speaker-shaking sound and attitude of the playing. If you don't usually consider acoustic bass to be part of you musical palette, Akoustik Bass Hitz might just change your mind." _ Sound On Sound Magazine, January 2005
