This is a Hip-Hop/Dancehall groove in F#min at 90bpm with some orchestral strings and timpani providing most of the harmony and giving it vigorous motion. Download: 3-14-07 F#min 90bpm

This is a 90bpm gospel/R&B shuffle in Ab. The chord progression goes from Ab9 to GbMAJ7/Ab. Occasionally I drop down to a Gb13 which inspired a nice sounding turnaround. This groove would make a good vamp.
