Daz Dillinger - Samplin to the Beat of the Drum Sunday, December 26, 2010
I always heard about this one, finally got it and I have to say I was impressed as far as drum albums go. It's basically 28 tracks, most are untitled, of nothing but drums. The drummer is Deon Neuble produced by Daz Dillinger (Tha Dogg Pound). I was expecting sampled drum patterns replayed like the Bernard Purdie record, but it's basically this drummer doing his thing. Very nice. Do NOT sleep! Check it..

Beats From The Vault Wednesday, July 07, 2010

Beats From The Vault
This is another novelty thing. It's basically a cd I found in a thrift store few years back. It consists of Motown (or some major soul label) samples put out for Hip Hop producers to use as source music. I lost the cd, and thus tracklisting and cover. I remember it saying that if you planned on using anything from this cd to contact someone for clearance. Yeah, ok. There are 99 tracks of chopped popular soul music here..some are drums, intros, vocals, and all range from about 1 to 2 minutes.
Basically it's a ready-made catalog of music for producers. Personally, I don't think Motown knows about this! Enjoy...there are some nice, crispy sounds here. And drums!

Also....speaking of drums, my man Dawhud, a SP-1200 user from Basement Addicts put out a pretty impressive SP-1200 drum kit. Not a huge kit, but these were used in his "Basement Sessions" lp. They have that nice 12 bit crunch straight from the SP-1200.

Sister Nancy

CLASSIC SAMPLE ALERT! The song "Bam Bam." Damn near er'body has sampled this bassline! The best IMO is Large Professor's "Just Hanging Out." Classic bass-heavy reggae?...Sister Nancy is ill. Enjoy this one!

Hal Blaine
Have Fun! Play Drums!
I fucking love this fucking record. The first side has loads of audio and filthy kicks, hi hats, toms, snares, and vocals of Hal talking about playing drums. I've wanted to flip this record for so long, but never had the time...so, I offer it to the fam! enjoy!

Classic Beats and Breaks Vol.1
Scarface Records (1994)
I think this was produced by the rapper Paris. There's 71 breaks on this volume...and although people don't sample full breaks anymore, or at least not from these compiled and processed comps, they are very useful for chopping those classic b-boy drum sounds. I got mad snares off this volume.
