Inspired by classic and contemporary reggae drumming performances, Drum Werks XXI Reggae Drums is an all-new collection of reggae drum loops.
The goal with this reggae collection was to capture the essence of the reggae drummers of the 70's who set the standard for the elusive reggae feel and styles. Add this to more contemporary artists and groove derivations and you get a truly unique collection of live acoustic reggae drum loops.
Grooves feature one drop beats as well as rocker variations, and are played with a straight or triplet swing feel. All that wonderfully elusive feel of reggae is captured for trditionalists but grooves also blend syncopated kick and snare patterns for a truly distinctive style that will work well in more rock influenced projects. These live reggae and reggae-rock rhythms will deliver a distinctive mix of the jazzy, funky style that influenced the reggae genre.
With a snare drum tuned very high and providing the necessary pop for backbeat and Off-beat rhythmic accents, the grooves also incorporate cross-stick patterns and tom drums into beat variations.
This collection of reggae includes One drop, Rocker and Stepper variations. Hi-hat patterns add additional flavor to the grooves, whether played in a straight or swung eigth fasion or mixing in triplet cross-rhythms on the hi-hat. Whether you need the traditional one drop kick on three or the four beat flow of a stepper variation, your beats will deliver a hypnotic and constant drive of groove. Mix in a deliciously funky serving of fills and you're ready to chop down some skank.
In the more syncopated rhythms incorporating hi-hat and cross-sticking triplets on top of the "One Drop" rhythm typical of traditional reggae, users will find the grooves ideal for dub, dubstep, and hybrid dub music styles.
These high-quality reggae drum loops are the perfect groove solution for reggae and rock-reggae drum tracks, delivering grooves to inspire artists after a pure reggae vibe as well as hybrid styles of rock-reggae.
Available
in 16-bit and 24-bit WAV and APPLE LOOPS formats.

Drum Werks XXI: Reggae Grooves
Expanding the ever-growing Beta Monkey collection of grooves, we have been asked many times over the years to deliver a powerful and versatile collection of reggae drum loops.
So, after kicking the idea around for some time, we found the right player and let loose with the flavor, quality and quantity everyone has come to expect from Beta Monkey. Multiple tempos laid down by one of L.A.'s top session players, this disc is about natural and live grooves - no quantization or samples necessary.
Unlike many commercially available reggae loop discs, we would rather not release a set of reggae drumming tracks unless it is done the Beta Monkey way. These grooves are 100% natural, live, and acoustic, with that human feel that simply does not come in programmed beats.
Drum Werks XXI: Reggae Grooves includes multiple variations of grooves and fills at multiple tempos - the kind of authentic reggae inspiration your tracks deserve.
Enjoy
the grooves!
