I want to make more heavy hitters! I like mixing dark elements into dance music.

Following in the footsteps of the 7/07 pack I uploaded earlier this month, I'm sharing with you more one-shots from my Roland TR8. This time it's the TR-727 expansion pack, just in time for 7/27! Like the last time, I've run every hit through my Akai S950 to add some gritty textures to the formula.

The TR-727 is sort of the lost dog of the Roland classic drum machine series. Released in conjunction with the TR-707 in 1985, the TR-727 had the same functionality as its brother yet focused entirely on Latin percussion. 

Included in this pack are the majority of the sounds from the 727, including bongos, congas, agogos, cabasas, quijadas, whistles, and the star chime. There are around 25 different combinations of tune and decay settings for each. The streamable file above can be downloaded as-is, but be sure to grab the link below as well. This includes a ZIP file with all the individual hits in folders, as well as a collected Ableton project with all the hits converted to drum racks.

Be on the lookout for 8/08 and 9/09...I shouldn't have to explain things much further!
