Anyone interested in 180 raw breaks?

Yo, been spending the last month and a bit cataloging all my drum breaks.
All drums have been recorded from vinyl, generally LP's with the exception of a few 45's.
Equipment used:
- Technics SL-1200MK2
- Shure M44-7 cartridge/stylus
- Rane TTM 56 DJ mixer (EQ flat)
- RME Fireface 800
-Pro Tools 10.3.7 (recorded around -3 DBFS @ 24bit/96KHZ, then bounced down to 16bit/44.1KHZ with POW-r dithering applied)

All files are stereo with the exception of a few breaks that have been purposely panned during their original recording phase (EG: Kool & The Gang - N.T, Average White Band - School Boy Crush, etc). I have also named each file with it's corresponding BPM.

shit man!! u cataloged them shits!!

I'd be interested, SIR.

peak.



the drum sound on Bill Withers records is probably my favourite drum sound ever.

I thought Xmas was over

Yes please, man I suck yo' dick.

yes please sir.

Also worth mentioning, no form of dynamic processing or noise reduction has been applied to these audio files. Is there any legality issues I should know before uploading?

Not really as far as communal sharing on this forum. Last year I spoke to Tutor about these kinds of shares. He was extremely cool about it. One from the standpoint he sells drums obviously, two I wanted to be clear regarding the legalities that might salt his game running this forum. I have posted some mega packs and PGM folders in the past, on the same share the love steez you are coming with astral_Signal. So hats off for your generosity. You can always use new recordings of the classics, and you've offered vinyl sourced ones recorded well at 24 bit.

He basically told me so long as the shares aren't rips of released break LP's, breaks and PGM's were fine. So no Ultimate Beats & Breaks rips and so on. But just drums and loops he said go ahead. Tutor's main thing was he didn't want [Insert Name of Retail Breaks LP] +share coming up on Google and resulting in DCMA notices.

So salute to Tutor for being so cool when he clarified how he wants it. And thanks again for your trouble recording and sharing these breaks.

No worries lads.

All source material is from a master release with the exception of a few breaks from compilation LP's such as 'The Funky 16 Corners' (Stones Throw), & 'New Orleans Funk: The Original Sound Of Funk 1960-75 ' (Soul Jazz Records). Unfortunately, it's getting harder to find original pressings these days, so expect some re-issues in there..

Will upload soon.

Peace

Will surely keep my eyes open

So...did you require that knee-trembler or are we good?

I'm interested too! Although I have many of the listed songs on vinyls, I don't own some of the songs.

The break list itself is already golden.

I know you're a Brit, but I read your earlier comment in the Menace To Society crackhead/cheeseburger dude voice. Perhaps your intention.
