808 Drumloops - 02 |
 The
second episode in our presentation of Reggae
Loops created with the the TR808 Drum
Machine Sounds contains just one rhythm.
It's a 121 BPM One Drop and contains 28
different loops. There are several different
variation in the rhyhm, four different fills
and several loops with a crash cymbal hit.

The One Drop is ideal for some heavy roots sounds,
even when they are created with the TR 808 sounds.
Especially by making your own sequence of the
loops, you can create some pretty complicated but
solid rhythms. Usually there is only "one
drop" of the bassdrum in every measure, on
the third count, which brings this solidness. But
the creative hi hat pattern and several variations
make it also interesting for those with an ear for
detail. That's the power of the One Drop and it
shows especially in heavy DUB.
The loops are constructed in such a way, that you
can easily copy any loop after any loop. You can
even use software like Cool Edit and simple
"open append" the loops you want in
order to get a nice drum track.
Beware, though. Although the loops are all 4 to 8
measure long, they do not actually start on the
first measure. This becomes clear, when you listen
to the introduction roll. So start with the
introduction roll, and listen closely. When you
count the measure in blocks of 8 measure, know
that the loops start with the "last
measure" and then continues with the first
seven (or three) measures. The reason why
this is done, is so that all loops can follow
eachother easy. For in every measure, there is
some decay of the hand clap from the previous one.
This is also the reason why you hear the
"click" at the start of every measure.
When you copy/paste them in a sequence, this click
is gone.
