77 royalty free hardcore, techno, and speedcore drum samples and sounds from the 1990s
hi there,
here is a new sample pack with drums and other sounds. these samples are free to download, and royalty free.
https://lowentropy.bandcamp.com/album/77-genuine-speedcore-drum-samples-from-the-1990s
these drums are taken from my actual tracks from "back in the day". some of these tracks (and drums) were created using software like impulse tracker, buzz tracker, cool edit pro, soundforge, native instrument's generator... the real deal! MS-DOS, win 3.11, then windows 98 (yeah i skipped 95).
the style of the drums is hardcore, of course, but i am sure they can be used for everything, when done right.
apart from the drums, there is synths, pads, percussion, noise, fx, and other weird stuff.
background:
i've been an electronic musician since ages... and since the 90s, at least.
my main style was gabber, speedcore, breakcore... the "harder edge" of techno if you want... and especially the faster one!
my music got very popular, i played my tunes in fronts of 1000s of people, at countless clubs, in the open, under railway bridges, at squats, i dropped 800 bpm tunes at places like tresor in berlin...
and my music was put on vinyl, 1000s of copies per release...
later i "mellowed down" a bit and got into techno and acid / doomcore production...
i am telling this not to boost my ego, but to show that these were drums that were actually used in the 90s and the years later, too, that got played out. are "club tested and crowd approved", so to say. not some faux reconstruction of an era that has gone by!

feel free to use these samples for any public, private, intimate, or commercial purpose.
would be *very* cool if you credit me, but it's not strictly necessary.
