Introducing "Library Breaks”—an original collection of royalty-free drum breaks from Polyphonic Music Library, created by Grammy Award-winning and multi-platinum producer Mario Luciano.
“India” is a set of 15 original analog drum breaks featuring over 150 kick, snare, hi-hat, conga, bongo, and tom one-shots. Heavily inspired by late-’60s and early-’70s Bollywood soundtracks—especially cinematic fight, action, and chase scenes—each break offers its own distinct texture, character, and swing, complete with fills and ghost notes to avoid repetitive patterns. Recorded and processed through analog tube gear, tape machines like the Ampex 440b, and vintage reverbs including the RE-201 and natural room verbs, this collection captures the authentic warmth and tone of classic Bollywood records from that era. Perfect for sound designers seeking fresh cadences and grooves beyond the standard 4/4 click, “India” provides vibrant breaks to spark new ideas and chord progressions.
