KJ Sawka Live D'n'B Drums - Computer Music Review

 

 

Loopmasters’ latest take on the DnB sound is an altogether more organic affair than usual, with a selecton of acoustic beats played by a real life drummer. That’s not to say that no processing or reprogramming has taken place, though, and some of the loops feature crazy glitch effects.

 

As well as DnB, you also get some dubstep, rock, jazz and original funk-style breaks. This is a decent collection that will appeal to producers looking to add a genuine live feel to their drum parts.
