Live blues drum loops that deliver the pocket your music needs!
Drum Werks XII delivers authentic and powerful drums for today’s blues and blues-rock productions. 12/8 patterns, shuffle grooves and swings, 100% live and hitting the pocket hard. It’s all here on Drum Werks XII.
We recorded one of Nashville’s top session drummer in one of town’s best drum rooms, capturing the swing, pocket, and feel of multiple blues styles. Simply put, it’s as real as it gets and it swings hard. If you’re writing anything along the lines of Stevie Ray Vaughan, Eric Clapton, The Allman Brothers, Gary Clark Jr., or Joe Bonamassa, these blues-rock and blues drum loops have the sound and feel to inspire your songwriting.
With a big, open drum mix to drive the grooves (and one of our favorite snare drum sounds we ever recorded!), powerful blues drum tracks are just a drag and drop away in the DAW of your choice, including Pro Tools, Logic, GarageBand, Cubase, ACID, Ableton Live, Studio One and more.

It’s a very good deal for the price because there are great fills to make the drum track lively and a lot of variations that allow you to find what you are looking for.
