/MUSEWIRE — Music News/ — This week, Native Instruments (NI) announced their newest expansion: “NEO BOOGIE,” which, according to NI, “blends the essence of the original funk movement with shiny, space-age production. Guitar licks, energetic beats, and eclectic loops combine with vintage synths and retro-futurist sounds for free wheeling feel-good vibes.” NEO BOOGIE was created by Divided Souls.

The late ‘70s and early ‘80s laid the foundations for the future of pop and electronic music. NEO BOOGIE dusts off era-defining vintage hardware and blends it with punchy, driving percussion to give funk’s sensual groove a distinct modern edge. Blissful chords, addictive riffs, and noodling live bass blend with robotic beats and talk boxes to deliver old-school funk feeling to modern pop, hip hop, and electro.
