One Loop... Endless Options
Drum loops are a crucial part of today's music production. They provide a track with energy and movement. And because they're usually crafted from similar sounds or recordings, they also provide a track with a great sense of continuity for whatever sonic approach the producer is aiming to achieve. In this way, they function a lot like a hammer or screwdriver — consistently called upon no matter the degree or scale of the project.
In this video, we quickly explore how a single drum loop can be used to create endless drum possibilities. By finding the right loop, chopping it up, spreading it across our sampler and then playing it back in varying patterns, we can unlock endless rhythmic solutions from a single drum loop.
The video features a loop from the Vinyl Vibes - Side B sample pack by That Sound. Recorded through vintage analog gear on vintage Ludwig and Rogers drums, this pack offers an organic warmth that will instantly add a retro feel to your music production. Highly-curated one shots provide detailed flexibility whilst multiple mixes of drum loops offer a wide range of sonic possibilities.
