REQ: Drumdrops Krautrock Kit
The Krautrock Kit is a hybrid kit recorded by producer Ben Hillier (Depeche Mode, Blur, Nadine Shaw). Ben used his collection of vintage German mics all running into a Studer desk for a truly authentic sound. The kit has lots of dampening and screens to isolate the drums in that classic Krautrock style.
