Loop Packs
Ryan on May 2nd 2009
I’ve decided to change the way you not only buy drum loops, but how you think about using them. By using a subscription-based approach, I am able to give you 100+ new loops every month as well as in-depth commentary about the recording process, my thoughts and inspirations for each groove and I’ll even show you ticks and trips for arranging the loops to create your own custom drum parts. You’re not just getting a zip file full of loops, you’ll get inside the head of the drummer who created them (for better or for worse).
And the best part? It’s only $9.95 a month.

Gruss Loops - Vol 9
90_Thunk – Sometimes snares sound better when you tune them down. Way down. For this series of beats, I took one of my deep maple drums, loosened the batter head to the edge of complete floppiness, and laid a few sheets of notebook paper on top. To thicken things up even more, I tapped into some virtual tape saturation via Ozone 4 and cranked the compression knob.

135_TheShore – I never really thought I’d produce a set of loops inspired by an MTV series. No, this isn’t a tribute to “The Grind”, but come to think about it, it’s not that far off. These loops are a direct result from watching far too many episodes of the wonderful freak show that is The Jersey Shore. I have a feeling that my subscribers in Eastern Europe and Seaside Heights will enjoy these grooves.

179_Took5 – You can’t record a jazz groove in 5/4 and not pay respect to Dave Brubeck for making it the only household odd-time signature. Throw in a bit of Elvin’s left handed triplets on the snare and some ostinatos on the hi hat and bass drum and you’ve got my latest straight ahead loop set.

68_BrushBallad – What’s that woooooshing sound? Awh, the wonderful warmth of brush-based ballad loops. From the “less is more” school of cool jazz icons like Bill Evans and Miles Davis, these loops explore every single inch of a 14″ Remo Coated Ambassador.

103_BrushFunk – And while we’re on the topic on brushes, let’s see how they hold up in the world of funk. With an extra ringy snare drum and an army of 16th note ghost notes, my Regal Tip brushes prove they can hang in a genre outside of ballads.

Each set of loops contains multiple groove variations (with both hi hat and ride cymbal) and drum fills. From straight and simple verse beats to big and open chorus grooves, you’ll find everything you need to arrange your own custom drum tracks.
Not only do you get a wide variety of grooves and tempos, you’ll also get the vast range of production sounds and styles you’ve come to know from this blog. With my extensive collection of drums, cymbals and microphones, I’ll provide you with plenty of fresh and unique beats every month to keep you inspired.
Loops downloaded from the Member’s Only area are 100% Royalty Free!
No additional licensing is necessary to use these beats for commercial purposes. Go ahead, mix these drum tracks into your next Grammy-winning hit song. Just be sure to thank me from the podium.
