The Offbeat Pack

(5 customer reviews)

$9.00

The idea of recording the Offbeat Pack originated when composer Andy Kotz asked Magnus to play drums on 3 house tunes that he was sending to a TV show. House music, you ask? As in… EDM? Dance music? Not the kind of music you’d associate with OddGrooves, right? And that’s absolutely correct, but the grooves also turned out to work pretty well with other genres – such regular pop, rock and… drumroll… Prog! Just listen to the first sound clip below and be convinced.

 

  • 120 MIDI grooves, recorded in 3 tempos, all in 4/4
  • Mappings include Toontrack EZdrummer & Superior Drummer, XLN Audio Addictive Drums, Steven Slate Drums, NI Studio Drummer, NI Abbey Road Series plus mappings for I-Map, Logic Drummer and General MIDI
  • As usual, no quantization.
  • Recorded live by Berklee educated professional drummer Magnus Brandell
  • Most are longer grooves of 8 or 16 bars, but also a couple of shorter ones
  • Song format: Verses, choruses, fills, intros, outros and more

  1. Johnny

    Great demo songs, better than anything I could compose. Sold!

    I lie the beats and I love the non quatized hi-hats, their dynamic. Very inspiring when you are stuck without drummer!

  3. Nate (verified owner)

    They’re okay, it’s a little busy for EDM despite the description, if you feed it into a sampled drum machine the snare especially gets to be a lot in some of the grooves

  4. Campbell Millar (verified owner)

    Had to get this pack based on how excellent everything else is that I’ve bought so far. Very inspiring ideas and more fun than finding some boring drum machine loops that all sound the same after awhile. Some human feel here!

    I just bought this and a couple of other packs. I have auditioned them but have not used in a song yet. I own Monday Toontrack products and Groove Monkey packs . Oddgrooves are some of the best feeling I have heard. Good job. It may just be the packs I have ( so far) but I think they are a little light on stand alone fills. Otherwise I really like what I hear.
