Dusty Drum Machines pack cover

Dusty Drum Machines

This pack is the fourth installment exploring the unique instruments the legendary electronics store, Three Wave Music in New Jersey has to offer. This one highlights rare drum machines and drum boxes. It features creative percussion and drum loops in a range of styles from hip hop to house to disco, electro, techno, and trap.

We used granular synthesis and outboard processing with Elysia Mpressors, Lexicon, and TC Helicon effects to take these cosmic rhythm boxes to new depths. We recorded the sounds and grooves of six super rare drum machines and boxes including the Simmons SDS9, Synsonics 5300, Boss DR55, E-mu Drumulator, Boss DR110, and the Korg DDM 220. Find more information about each in the story below.
