Synth Drum Patterns. Tracks 35-43 comprise loops from 85-160 BPM, though the section title is a bit of red herring as some of the loops contain no drums at all.Tracks 35-37 have 6 loops similar to those in tracks 2-16, full loop then 1 or 2 stripped down versions, these though are just the drum loops without the bass and synth parts that the earlier section included.

Track 38 offers 3 single versions of loops. Tracks 39-42 delve into more rhythmic patterns on a Roland 100M, some could be bass parts rather than drum patterns. Finally track 43 has 4 loops of snaps and sequences.

Similar to the first section there is a variety of styles and tempo's here, though again there are not that many, 27 in all.

Synth Sequences. Here we have 6 tracks with 45 or so short sequences. Typically lasting a few seconds each of blips, squelches, short arpeggio runs, simple tones, scratches and so forth. Track 47 stands out a little as it is made up of retro computer game type sound sequences. Otherwise a wide range of seqences ready to drop into a track, either as they stand or looped in some cases to underpin a track more.

Synth Noizes. Not a spelling mistake, throughout noise is spelt with a z !. Tracks 50-61 comprise around 150 samples of single sounds, blips, squelches, tones, noises, sweeps very short sequences and so forth. Some very good sounds are to be founds here which could form the buildings blocks of sequences, leads, arpeggio's or rhythm sections. Some of the sounds are percussive in nature, and there is a wide range of sounds. There are some truely weird ones in here I would stuggle to place in a track myself, but I am sure others would find a use for them.

Track 57 contains a couple of vocoded voice "arhhhs" which stand out as there are not many sounds here one could describe as pads. All in all a wide range of sounds that would find uses in genres of music far removed the Kraftwerk like theme of the CD.

Electronic Percussion Hits. 4 tracks comprising of 50ish snares, bass drums, hi-hats, snaps, blips and so on. Ready to be built into drum patterns or other rythmic parts of a track. A solid collection, though some of the drums do sound rather weak when compared to current day fashion. It would have been nice to have a collection of sounds from some of the era's drum machines. Withstanding that still a useful collection, I feel would be most used as a bolt on to an existing set of drum sounds, especially if being used away from the strictly intended genre.
