We create sample packs

With vintage drums and analog gear covering decades of recording technology, Amsterdam Recording Company provides the perfect environment to capture drum samples. Here's where we share our sample packs with producers, beat makers, musicians and other creators looking for quality drum samples. Beats, Breaks, Fills, Loops, One-Shots. Royalty free.

Amsterdam Recording Company has a huge selection of unique and vintage microphones, amps, drumkits and synths. At the heart of our studio we have a unique 32 channel Polygram (Philips) mixing console from 1972. The console was originally constructed by Philips because they felt that the top consoles at the time weren’t good enough for their prestigious Polygram studios and therefore decided to build their own. In doing so they set a standard which, in our opinion, has never been matched since.

Among other kits passing through our studio, these are the ones we use for our sample packs:

Slingerland 1975 Kit, Ludwig 1965 Kit, Rogers 1975 Big R Kit, Ludwig Acrolite 70's snare, Ludwig Supraphonic 60's snare, Rogers Dynasonic 70's snare, Slingerland 70's snare, Pearl Jupiter 70’s snare, Pearl Export 80’s snare
