GET GROOVING...FOR FREE

Groove packs can be used in a variety of different ways, from building a song from scratch to helping inspire a new feel or direction to a help finish a composition. Each groove has a ton of variations, fills and accents to help push your creativity.

It is also a great learning tool, helping a non-drummer visualise and understand how a drummer approaches writing parts, dynamic tendencies, and composition. This can be equally useful for a drummer to get inside the mind of another player to break out of old patterns.

Our groove packs give you an amazing starting point, a source of inspiration, providing ideas that are fresh and new for your music. Try it for yourself with Free Grooves Vol. 1. Over 200 grooves packed full of dynamic, energetic performances ready to bring your next production to life.

HERE'S WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT GGD

Simon Grove
Producer & Mix Engineer (Protest The Hero, Plini & Intervals)
One Kit Wonder is a no-brainer if you’re after instant mix-ready drum sounds. A crucial tool for the modern songwriter.

Jeff Dunne
Producer and Mix Engineer (Emmure, Cane Hill, Crossfaith)
Whether I’m aiming to reinforce or replace the shells of a recorded kit, add depth and space with room samples, or program a realistic sounding part from scratch, I know GGD will cover all my bases. The explosive room sounds and perfectly tuned toms are worth the price of admission on their own, and the Kontakt UI makes it a breeze to set up in any project.

Jeremy Reeves
Producer (Bruno Mars, Foster The People, Justin Bieber)
GGD has quickly become part of my go to Arsenal for acoustic drums. The detail in these drum samples, as well of the comprehensive easy to use interface, makes for quick and efficient drum tracks in any genre artist that im working with. You would be doing yourself a disservice if these drums were not part of your production.
