about

Take a bar, take 8 bars, take 16, 32… jump around and find something to loop, or use the whole track. Sing on it, rap, play bass, blow a jug. Slow it down, speed it up, chop, process, distort.

These drum recordings are free for you to adapt. If you use them, please email me (me@spencertweedy.com) to show me what you’ve made. If you release it, please include a credit similar to this: “Drum samples by Spencer Tweedy’s Drumprints.” (See more info on the CC-BY 4.0 license below.)

You can also listen just for the sake of listening. It’s sequenced to be as album-like as possible :)

thanks & hugs,
Spencer

p.s. The last numbers in the track title are the tempo. Download in a lossless format like WAV for the best audio. More info at spencertweedy.com/drumprints

The world’s sense of rhythm is continually enriched by people in sub-Saharan Africa and the African diaspora. I wouldn’t really know what to do with a drum if it weren’t for their singing (in voice and on drums) — often stolen, often shared in joy. I thank them.

Thanks also to Mom, Dad, Sammy, Casey Walker, Glenn Kotche, Jeff Fortin, Dane Richeson, Maurice Barrett, Mark Greenberg, Tom Schick, Phoebe Randall, Jason Ashworth, and Goodhertz Plugins.
