[dead] Hitsound Hit CD 04 David Ruffy's Drums CDDA

140 specially performed loops including some utilising sampled sounds largely in a modern dance vein with some emulations of the classics.
Plus a very comprehensive set of 265 single hits with 4 velocity multisamples of each drum, plus a range of recording techniques.

More info on the Producer
Dave Ruffy was a member of The Rutts and has since gone on to become one of the UK's most successful session drummers.
He's also into DJing and producing his own dance music. He's also a fantastic guy, always armed with a load of dodgy jokes. His latest release 'Ruff Cutz' is awesome too.
That CD plus many of the best grooves from this CD are included on the REX File version of 'Ruff Cutz' too!
