Matt Rollings

Sample CD

Music Producer / Master Archivist Tony Harris ("Double Platinum Drums," the award winning CD compilation: "Elvis Presley "The King of Rock and Roll," Kenny Rogers, Lou Rawls and countless others ), and multi-platinum Engineer David Cole (Bob Seger, Richard Marx, Rikki Lee Jones and many more) have digitally recorded, edited and mastered more than 2 hours of keyboard performances by 5 time Keyboardist of the year Matt Rollings (Queensryche, Lyle Lovett, Wynonna, Billy Joel, Linda Ronstadt, Trisha Yearwood, Bad Company, George Strait, Mary Chapin-Carpenter, Larry Carlton and many more).

These tracks are all new original recordings for use in sampling, songwriting and record production. Each of these tracks is performed either on a "primo" studio-recording REAL ACOUSTIC Steinway B grand piano, a REAL-rebuilt-for-recording-vintage Fender Rhodes 88 or a REAL-rebuilt-for-recording-vintage Honer Clavinet D-6 with a Morley Wah-Wah pedal.

The tracks on this Deluxe 2 disc Audio CD feature all styles from Rock to Country Gospel, Funk to Ballads, Alternative to New Orleans and are carefully mapped by tempo (from 55 beats per minute to 200 bpm). In keys from A to G# , major and minor. In lengths from 9 seconds to 3 minutes 49 seconds. 4/4, 3/4, straight 8's and shuffles and more. Presenting a seemingly endless choice of short figures to use as loops, and/or longer pieces complete with intro's, verses, turnarounds, chorus patterns, bridges and outro's. Each musical performance is logged by ID number, beat per minute, instrument played, title (indicating musical genre) and duration in the extensive included documentation making finding just the right piece of music when you want it easy.

Edd Kolakowski, Senior concert Technician at Steinway Hall, prepared and tuned all the keyboards on these CD's. He was trained in the old Steinway school and tempered by decades of making the keyboards of everybody from Arthur Rubinstein to Guns 'N' Roses play perfectly, in tune and sound good.

Matt Rollings is filled with infinite inventiveness, and plays each keyboard in that unique way that defines the instrument. Now, Matt Rollings can make a major contribution to your music in this essential songwriting/music producing tool. Also, these tracks are great beds for voice overs, song ideas and production music needs.

Once you add your creativity by means of overdubbing you are able to use these tracks free of any licensing fees.
