Hey what’s good fam, it’s Friday, so you know what time it is
Big Fish Friday
Today, I’m checking out the “Rock Cinema” library
let’s check it
What is Rock Cinema?
It’s a collection of loops and riffs that capture the style of rock based soundtrack and cinematic music.
Think movies and trailers with a Rock feel to it.
Not so much hard Rock as it is just guitar based music with more of an ambient or cinematic theme to it.
It’s a construction kit but comes in their KLI Kontakt format for quick auditioning and tweaking
Quick Specs
- content: 4.2GB
- format: Wav, Rex, Apple, Acid, RMX, Kontakt (full)
- price: $99.95
How does it sound?
You may think “I don’t really mess with Rock samples” but you’d be missing out.
These aren’t just your average Rock style loops, they really have a thematic, cinematic, ambient feel to them.
I really dig the wide delayed guitars, some of which have a nice amount of reverb on them to create extra space.
There’s also nice live bass, punchy acoustic drums, some ambient keys and even synth pads and leads can be found in this collection.
Recording quality is well done, no weird glitches or artifacts to worry about
The loops themselves are well played and long enough with plenty of variety to keep you busy
What’s the bottom line?
This is a nice library with some very useful loops and riffs
I like the style of the guitars and keys in here, they have a nice soundtrack feel to them, good for chopping up or using as the backdrop of a track.
I give Rock Cinema 4 out of 5 subs, plenty of variety with well recorded riffs and instrument loops to give you lots of material to work with.
I also like that they are in Kontakt format, it just makes for quick browsing and auditioning of the samples.
I do wish we could adjust the sliced loops but that’s no fault of Big Fish that is a limitation of the Kontakt scripting engine.
Overall, it’s a good product, definitely check it out if you’re looking for something a little different than the norm.

Great review as always. It does have that soundtrack feel too it that can go in a few different directions. Dope kit.
Yeah, I dig stuff like this because it’s just so different than the norm. Thanks for watching
Yo all the KLI stuff is damn near 5 stars to me just because of he format. I mean some libraries Are better than others but you can be more free with them. I hope they make all that way.
Yeah I feel you man, I like the KLI format too.
Hey I hardly hear your voice, its too low. This library quality seems great in your review but doesn’t have enough free styles right? I mean like if I need to play my own chords, Rhythms, etc…
hmmm, that’s weird.
but yeah, this is a loop library just in kontakt format so no playable instruments as such
Spotless review as usual. Very realistic and organic. I get asked to play stuff like that a lot.
Thanks Joe!
Cool man, glad to help, thanks for watching
I’m doing the rock thing now so this is right on time.Nice and clear sounding stuff too.
Mos def. copping this up. Bless Up SaintJoe!
cool bro, glad you dig it
Big Fish Friday Yes!!! Yes!!!
SJ: This kit “Rocks”…From your video review the sounds appear clear & original. The loops seem plentiful. Thanks for giving us an inside look into this one.
