Sample Diggers – Vol. 3: Sugar Breaks £14.95

>Drums, please! Sample pack veteran, Mark Fletcher, steps up once more to deliver another expert session. His super live and loose style is perfect for dropping in your soul and funk productions, as is, or chopping or beefing with extra hits of your own.

Nothing is pushed to the maximum, with Wav files having lots of headroom, so there’s plenty of raw material to play with. And the 76-137bpm loops come in a wide variety of moods, with lots of tone and energy to get inspired by. From springy snares and splashy hats, to crisp toms and thumping kicks, everything radiates from the finest kit, captured with the pro’s choice of mics and outboard gear. Quality tub-thumps, throughout. Roy Spencer loopmasters.com
