Today we’ve got a special treat for all the producers out there from our friends at StickTrickProductions.com. They provide custom drum breaks at great prices. You can get a custom 16 bar drum loop for about $50. We’re talking REAL DRUMS, REAL DRUMMER, on a vintage kit…shit is beautiful.
What they’ve done is provided us with a nice big zip kit of long drum breaks, all in high-res WAV’s just ready for you to chop up, loop, or just enjoy. In total there is about 200mb’s of drum breaks. All original high quality recorded drum breaks. For real…and it’s free!! Grab this one. There are a few samples below. But make sure you go to http://www.sticktrickproductions.com and check out everything they have to offer. Don’t sleep on this offer, I’m sure the prices won’t be this low forever. Come on, custom drums??? How much better does it get than that?!?! For $50 you can not have to worry about clearing those drum breaks you always wanted to use.
Drum sounds…we all need them. We can never seem to have enough, but we don’t like paying for them. At least not paying for the basics. Breakbeats and vintage drum machines. As a life long cheapskate, I’m familiar with getting what I need without having to break unnecessary bread. Whether you’re looking for a simple 808 to give your kicks some boom, or you want some great breaks to chop and get some ghost-notes, the links below can help you. Enjoy, and make sure you use them right.
I remember back when this site had THOUSANDS of drum breaks online, I used to rock these loops over Ahmad Jamal samples back in the late 90’s. There’s a great selection of classic drum breaks on this site in Wav files(some good quality, some bad). Everything from “Synthetic Substitution” to “Get out of My Life Woman”
Another great site to go to get your fill of classic breaks, but this site also gives you a bunch of 808 and 909 sounds. Great quality and great breaks to chop up and layer.
Cheebs Beats is a blogspot blog that features A TON of downloadable files from vintage drum machines to new drum packs. Check it out, bookmark it, and keep it up to date
Hollow Sun is filled with vintage synth sample packs, plenty of which have interesting and very usable drums. This is one site you must check out if you’re big on manipulating sounds and building your own drums.
If you want that real 808 and 909 boom and clap, you need to check out this site. Sample packs for every individual instrument. Just want the 808 kicks without a bunch of useless congas? Download that. Really good stuff for you 808 fans out there.
