This is one of the largest collections of hip-hop and R&B samples on the market, comprising 128 construction kits (including loops and single hits), 400 drum loops, 300 percussion files, 100 live drum recordings and 100 Akai MPC sounds. It would be easy to simply claim that this double-DVD set is worth the premium price just for the drums, but there’s s much more on offer. You’ll find literally all the hip-hop and R&B elements you could hope for on these two discs, all named by tempo and root key for easy use. Top marks!
