Lo-fi hip hop drum loop, lazy swung kick and rimshot, dusty tape saturation, 80 bpm, 4 bars
About this sample
A 12-second, four-bar loop at 80 BPM pairs a rounded kick with woody, crackling rimshots and soft, dusty hats. The kick layers a sine dropping from 125 to 48 Hz over 32 ms with filtered noise, then applies 1.5-drive saturation and a 4 kHz low-pass; rimshots combine a 740-to-510 Hz sine sweep with noise filtered from 900 to 4,800 Hz. Hats use noise filtered from 3,500 to 9,500 Hz, with even-step hits panned slightly left. Kicks vary by bar, while odd sixteenth steps shift by 20% of a step for a lazy swing; the full loop is filtered from 28 Hz to 10.5 kHz and gently saturated.
Use it for lo-fi hip hop, dusty beat tapes, or relaxed instrumental grooves around 80 BPM. Layer it under melodic parts or add reverb to the rimshots, but check the kick’s low end and the forward rimshot and hat detail against vocals or busy percussion.
