Touch Loops – Percussive Splash $7.99/mo

No, it’s not the sound of wazz hitting your shoes as you sway at a pub urinal. It’s a collection of world class percussion from renowned session musician, Gil. Now that your mind is out the gutter, let’s run down the rhythm sections in this mighty useful sample pack. You get sizzling brushed drums, sweet shaker grooves, and a fine mix of ride sounds, rim work, and hi-hat patterns that should humanise any beat programming you slide them into. Gil is a don, and his fly-ass phrasing and in-the-pocket playing has been captured with style, here. And with the tempos running from “chill out” to “get busy”, this is a set you’ll be coming back to again and again for a wide range of projects.
