Rock n' Roll Drum Loops & Sample Packs

Channel the spirit of rock’s early rebellion with rock and roll drum sample packs and loops performed by real drummers using authentic vintage kits.

Channel the spirit of rock’s early rebellion with rock and roll drum sample packs and loops performed by real drummers using authentic vintage kits. From the shuffle swing of ’50s rockabilly to the backbeat punch of the ’60s British Invasion, these performances capture the feel that launched a musical revolution. Every groove, snare hit, and tom roll is tracked through era-accurate gear—tube preamps, ribbon mics, and analog compression—bringing that warm, live-room character modern plugins can’t touch. You’ll hear the snap of calfskin snares, the bloom of open rooms, and the energy of real players behind every bar.

Each session includes BPM- and section-labeled WAV stems for quick arrangement. Build complete drum tracks, layer with vintage guitars, or drop ready-mixed stereo loops straight into your DAW. Royalty-free and mix-ready, these rock & roll drum loops deliver the timeless swing and drive that defined the first wave of rock.
