Drums, a sample pack tribute to the drum sound on “Disorder” and the Unknown Pleasures album. This pack contains 167 analog drum samples that deliver the distinctive punch, grit, and melancholy atmosphere of Stephen Morris’s drumming – all meticulously re-created and recorded with modern fidelity. From thunderous toms to snappy snares and atmospheric sweeps, Disorderly Drums gives you the tools to build a post-punk or gothic rock drum track that sounds authentically late 70s/early 80s.
Joy Division’s Drum Tone Reborn: We fell in love with the drum sound on Joy Division’s “Disorder” – the thumping toms and cracking snares that drive that song (and much of the Unknown Pleasures album). Using a vintage Yamaha acoustic drum kit and era-appropriate recording techniques, we crafted a set of samples that capture that exact vibe. These hits are dark, a bit roomy, and packed with character, instantly transporting your mix to a dimly lit Manchester studio circa 1979.
167 One-Shots for Realistic Programming: This is a comprehensive kit: 54 tom hits, 32 snare hits, 20 kicks, 31 hi-hats (closed and open), 14 crashes, 5 rides, plus 11 noise “sweeps” and FX for transitions. With so many variations, you can program drums that never sound repetitive – perfect for replicating Joy Division’s technique of individually recorded and processed drums. Every hit has slight differences (tuning, stick intensity, etc.), which is exactly how real drum takes are.
Tape & Analog Processing: To truly nail the unique tone of those recordings, each sample was run through analog gear and tape, then EQ’d to sit in the mix like Joy Division’s drums. The kicks are punchy but not bass-heavy, the snares have that curt snap with a hint of distortion, and the toms… oh, the toms… they’re deep and resonant, with that unmistakable “thud” you hear on tracks like “Disorder” and “Insight.” By matching the frequency profile and dynamics of the original album, we’ve ensured these samples require minimal mixing – they’re already flavored with that 1980 magic.
Ableton Live Project Included: As a bonus, we’ve included an Ableton Live session with the entire kit pre-loaded in a drum rack, complete with a randomized round-robin setup. This session is configured to cycle through the tom hits in a human way and throw in subtle variations on snares and hats, so you can jam out a beat and get an instant Joy Division feel. Even the reverb send is pre-tuned to emulate that Factory Records plate reverb. (Don’t have Ableton? No worries – the WAVs are all provided, and we include tips on how to replicate the setup in other DAWs.)
Made for Post-Punk & More: Disorderly Drums is obviously a goldmine for post-punk, goth rock, and new wave producers – basically any style where moody, powerful drums lead the charge. But these samples also work in modern settings: try the toms in a dark techno track, or use the snare and hat in a trap beat for a gritty twist. If you’re scoring a film or game set in the early 80s, this kit will authenticate your sound. It’s got that brooding, driving energy that defined an era.
