Other Currencies10 years ago -when Drum'n'Bass was very near it's zenith in popularity, - someone played KJ Sawka an LTJ Bukem track, and, as he says, "It scorched my brain. I dropped everything, and focused solely on how to recreate that on the drums."
Seeing Kevin Sawka on the drums is the only way to believe the hype. He can play the most complex of Jungle, Drum'n'Bass and Breakbeats utilizing no loops and no extended samples -only his two hands and two feet. If you can catch him in the right moment –live, at a show, or in a studio session- you’ll witness him perform each and every 808 bass kick, snare slap, and compressed high hat tick himself, in real-time – now you have the chance to capture the essence of this man within your own recordings – using the ‘KJ SAWKA – Live Drum and Bass Drummer’ sample package from Loopmasters.
This highly versatile and original sample collection contains a vast array of live drum and bass drum samples and loops, utilizing many custom kits and recording techniques, played by a master of his art – and giving you the producer ultimate flexibility when approach in your productions, whether you are making Drum and Bass, Downbeat, Hip Hop or other Broken Beat styles.

"KJ Sawka is the sort of drummer who could give Squarepusher a run for his renegade snares. Listening to him, you wonder, 'Is it live or digital? Human or sample?'"

The thing which really stands out for me is the fact that not only is he a great drummer but he clearly has a vast knowledge of DnB and Jungle.
I've heard people play DnB on a kit before but most of them still just sound like any drummer at 170+. Kevin Sawka sounds like Drum and Bass.
