Just want to thank you for putting out such a high quality product.
I have bought a bunch of your loop libraries over the years and they are always terrific.
Most of the tracks that I have put together for my soundcloud page start with your loops and I thought it was time I said thanks.
Here is the latest track I put together with a little help, using your Drumweks 23 – Blues

Now, this is how you do the blues. Lots of “non-typical” blues beats here as well. Everybody does 12/8 but some of the different shuffle variations on Drum Werks 23 are super hard to find. Love the natural mix and how it breathes. Perfect for the music I am currently writing. –Nick

Kelly I. –
Nice and gritty, with loads of feel. The bonus single hits are a big plus – I plan to use them in Drum Designer in Logic.
Bill Toupel –
Great set of blues drum loops. Live and gritty with some real nice flavor. I plan on using these for drum tracks on a future blues guitar project. Thank you!

A really solid collection of blues drum loops – I have been jamming with these for days since purchase. So much better than playing along to a click track!
