Also included is an extra special session teaming Cassell up with beatboxer Faith SFX to build complex multi layered drum parts with Faith SFX doubling up the drums and adding melodic stabs and basses into the mix.

The Loops are roughly divided into 4 sections:
KIT - is the sound of Cassell The Beatmaker's custom Premier elite Kit - 'The Beatmaker'. A beautiful shade of purple fade, this kit has been made bespoke to Cassell's exact specifications.

TKIT - Using innovative drum techniques and the very latest cymbal and drum technology, Cassell has created a 'trash kit' - featuring unconventional performances using his Zildjian K Custom Special dry FX hi hat, playing cymbals on toms, hanging splashes upside-down on china crashes creating unique and otherworldly effects.

BB - Beatboxer Faith SFX an accomplished performer and songwriter was brought in to add extra character to this section of beats by double tracking the live drums them with vocal percussion, bass and melodics featuring all the separate parts and full bounced mixes ready to drop in your DAW.

HITS - All the hits, every drum sound recorded in pristine 24Bit along with an incredible set of Beatbox one shots for those who prefer to roll their own beats or want to add an extra snare or crash into the loops.

From slow funky grooves at 80bpm to full-on drum and bass at 175 there is a vast range of tempos in this sample pack. Take advantage of this arsenal of secret weaponry to give your productions a twisted contemporary sound. In short - no series producer can do without this collection of flawless beats, courtesy of Cassell the Beatmaker! - Cassell wishes to thank Premier Drums, Zildjian cymbals, Remo skins, Vic Firth Drumsticks and Protection Racket Cases.
