Low Entropy Sample Pack 2 - Doomcore, Gabber, and Speedcore Bassdrums


Heya, here is a new sample pack by me.
This time it's all about the bass!

43 different kickdrums.
Most are based upon the 909. But three 808 type kicks are included, too.

Guide:

Load the wavs into your DAW, Sampler, whatever, and start banging.
Feel free to edit them, cut them, add EQ, effects or more reverb, in order to enhance them even further.
Note: due to the oldschool vintage distortion that I used, on some kicks an audible "click" sound can be heard. I don't mind this, but if it interferes with your production, cut it out or fade it off to fix this "issue".

The kicks should be suitable for most forms of Hardcore Techno and beyond; Gabber, Oldschool, Acidcore, Doomcore, Speedcore, Industrial, Slowcore, Breakcore, and so on...

To be more specific:

the "plain" kicks can be used to further manipulate them, distort them, whatever you like.
the "distortion" and "distortion + eq" kicks should be good for techno, gabber etc.
the "multi distortion" are good for speedcore terror, industrial and more.
"distortion + hall" are good for techno, acid, doomcore, slower genres...
"multi distortion + hall" are seriously messed up kicks that could be used for extreme slowcore or speedcore maybe.

but who am i to judge - employ them as you see fit.

Check out my earlier sample pack as well, in order to have some synths, basslines, percussions, fx (and more kicks) that you can use with these kicks:

why "only" 43 kicks?
I thought an approach of "less is more" works better here.
There should be enough variation to start working on a track right away in a multitude of genres.
And instead of me doing all possible iterations of eq, kick, hall, etc, and putting these into the pack, making things unnecessarily convoluted, these sounds can be used as a seed to build different variations of the kicks on your own, by running them through various effects and filters.

License:

Feel free to use the bassdrums for any public, private, intimate, or commercial purpose.
Would be cool if you credit me, but it's not necessary.
