Introducing "Patterns"—an original collection of royalty-free drum breaks from Polyphonic Music Library. "Patterns Vol. 1" is a set of 16 original drum breaks with over 180 one-shots including kicks, snares, hi-hats, congas, toms, and percussion. Heavily inspired by rare and sought-after breaks spanning multiple genres from 1972-1978—including Gospel, Jazz, Fusion, Euro Prog Rock, Psychedelic, and Soul from around the globe. Each break delivers its own distinct texture, character, and swing, complete with multiple fills and ghost notes to avoid repetitive patterns. Meticulously crafted using vintage microphones, tube compressors, EMT 140 plate reverbs, and tape machines, this collection captures the authentic warmth and raw feel of rare breaks you might find while digging in the crates. Perfect for sound designers seeking inspiration for fresh chord progressions and melodies beyond the standard 4/4 metronome click, "Patterns" offers vibrant, era-specific breaks that spark new creative directions.
