Dance Music Construction Kits?

[jmp909]

hi,

can anyone point to any free Construction Kits (mainly drums) for House/Techno/Electro/Breaks etc? In particular maybe kits maybe that have had a bit of mastering work to make them gel together as is, or maybe eg reason song setups with the mastering and maybe a few patterns included.

thanks

Yeah, making House is just too hard.
Can anyone provide a link to free, pre-mastered drum kits?

i dont know if that was sarcasm, (i'll give you the benefit of the doubt and presume it wasnt) but can i just say before all the flaming starts.... i work a 9 to 5 job... sometimes i just wanna come home and have a few things at my fingertips to knock some ideas out. The work other people have done to create these things for me is always appreciated.

It's no different than buying a 909 and pressing "start" instead of having to build the whole thing yourself out of diodes

Don't mind our chubby bearded asian friend. It was sarcasm, but oh well. If you go here, you can find some good drum samples. You'll have to roll off some of the bass on a lot of the kicks, but these are seriously high quality samples that'll at least be a good start. Just give them your email (I used an old email I don't use regularly anymore. ) and you get access to some of their dance/EDM samples.

Here are some EDM drums I've uploaded to filelodge from my own collection. Not sure where I found them, but they sure are good.

I need to change hosts now. Filelodge is crap.

thanks ildon,

i spent yesterday trawling through about 4000 kicks. most of which were over-distorted, over-effected or bad quality. so always good to find some new ones!
