Greetings,
I’m searching for vintage old school samples derived from old recordings, whether it’s vocal or drum loops or phrases. Typical to James Brown samples or other funky breaks & classic hip hop.
But I didn’t find anything.

Where can I find them?

Ok, does loopmasters has a sound pack that contains those classics (vocals, fx)?

actually they have too many packs & I can’t define which one has it?

I doubt you're going to have much luck finding samples actually derived from published recordings. There are a couple of threads pinned to the top of this forum about copyright and sampling old records.

I suggest searching Loopmasters and similar sites for words like vintage, classic, crate, boom bap, breakbeats, etc.

Here's one example I found searching for breakbeats:

Zero-G still has a bunch of their old sample packs from the '90s available. I believe Planet of the Breaks was one their more popular series: https://zero-g.co.uk/products/planet-of ... aks-series

Ya, you can't legitimately buy those old breaks anymore. They never were legit. :) ..but there are a couple library companies that make reasonable facsimiles.

And these people produce recordings for the purpose of chopping: (not quite the same as old breaks.. but still a legit source of
material to actually sample+chop)

You could always buy the records and sample them yourself (the "old school" way) ;)
