Barefoot Acoustic Beats

To create this library of really natural and versatile acoustic LIVE-PLAYED drum loops, I did 2 things: 1. took off my shoes 2. turned off the metronome Why did I do this? Playing drums LIVE, just feeling the beats and rhythms flow, un-encumbered by clicking sync-tracks and having the freedom of barefeet gave me a wonderful environment to explore and record for you extremely natural and versatile drumming.

These beats are perfect for: downtempo, breaks, big beats, trip hop, dub, drum and bass, acid jazz, chill-out, alternative rock (or ANY kind of rock), rock-a-billy, motown-sound and so much more!

All loops are 2 measures long. All loops are provided in REX2 and WAV formats and were recorded at 24-bit, 48khz. These beats were all played 100% LIVE, and are un-processed and 100% DRY. They have a wonderful raw and natural sound. Run them through your favorite compressor(s) and effects and/or your favorite "drum room" reverbs to create your own unique sound.

I've also included a very large selection of individual WAV one-shots of these drums: (Including crashes, splashes and rides), with multiple velocity hits of each sound so you can program your own realistic drum grooves from scratch or program your own unique flair on top of the beats provided!

Also included is a HUGE 83 sounds SFZ format drumkit all ready for you to load into your favorite sampler and start programming your own unique beats!
