Build the Rhythm Around the Chopped Sounds

The core of this hip hop drum kit is its range of individual drum and percussion sounds. Kicks can establish the foundation of a beat, while snares and claps can define the main rhythmic accents. The included percussion can be used to add additional movement around those central hits without having to rely on a single type of drum sound.

The pack also includes loops, which can give you material to work from when you want to develop a beat beyond individual one-shot samples. Depending on the arrangement, a loop can become part of the main groove or provide a starting point that you chop and reorganize into something new.

More Than Drum Hits

The sound and vocal material gives the kit another layer to explore. These samples can be placed alongside the drums to introduce additional elements into a hip hop arrangement. Chopped material can also be rearranged so that a sample becomes part of the rhythm rather than simply sitting on top of it.

Because the kit combines one-shot drums with loops, sounds, and vocals, you can approach it in different ways. Start with a kick and snare pattern, build around it with percussion, then experiment with one of the included loops or vocal elements to develop the arrangement.

WAV Compatibility and Royalty-Free Use

Outkast & Too Short Drum Kit is provided in WAV-compatible sample format, making the sounds suitable for any program that can read WAV files, including FL Studio. The kit is also royalty free, so the included material can be incorporated into your music-production workflow without the need to add licensing costs for its use.

Explore the Kit in Your Own Workflow

At 9 MB, the Outkast & Too Short Drum Kit is a relatively compact sample pack while still covering several parts of a hip hop production. Use the individual drum sounds when you want to program a beat from scratch, or start with the loops and chopped elements when you want a quicker source of inspiration. The different sample categories can also be combined to build a more complete arrangement from the same pack.
