His approach to drum recording is one much discussed in drummer/engineer circles. Some talk about the punchy kick, the muffled toms, or the mic placement that takes in the whole kit as a single instrument. But then there’s the snare sound. Oh THAT snare sound… The Loops We started messing around with grooves and ideas for a soul drum loops pack. Starting at 85bpm, we improvised some quite laid back grooves, on hi-hats then ride, in that 70’s soul style. Some 6/8 grooves also came to mind so we put those down as well. Moving up to 102bpm things got a bit funkier with more of a breakbeat feel. There are a few soul drum loops in here that could be used for rock too, and one or two 4-to-the-floor grooves too. ---
