These tracks are not purely drum loops, they include synth sounds, basses, blips and so forth typical of the genre so they are virtually the basis for a complete track in their own right. But by deconstructing the loops somewhat the flexibility is increased. I would have liked to have seen this process taken a step further by having the individual sounds broken down as well, quite probably many of the sounds do appear elsewhere on the CD but it isn't obvious. A program like Recycle would make short work of this if required by the user.

The loops have an excellent sonic quality and a range of tempo's and styles (given the tight genre that they are presented within), my only complaint is that there are not many, just 15.

Tracks 17-29 offer a variety of sequences, arpeggios, bass loops and sweeps. Loops again have their BPM listed and some have different versions of the same sequence. Some of these sound a little familiar, track 22 - Octave Bass Sequence in F - sounds suspiciously like the bass from the Kraftwerk track Autobahn, don't think it's been lifted mind, just recreated.

Many of these sounds could be used as drop ins, intro's, or the main theme of a track, there are some really nice sequences , track 24 - Bass Seq - offers 4 versions of an arpeggio bass loop. Which could appear in a variety of music styles, is my favourite here.

Beware track 26 - Throb Sweeps - if you've a headache, has a couple of ear piercing sweeps - aptly named !

Misc Synth Notes, Chords and FX. Tracks 30-34 offer exactly what it says, a variety of suitably synthy sounds.Track 34 is the highlight - Yahama Filter Res Chords - otherwise fairly non-descript. These sounds again could appear in a whole variety of genres.
