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.
“Sweden” is a set of 15 original analog drum breaks diving deep into the psychedelic and prog rock world of Swedish drum recordings from 1973–1977. With over 155 kick, snare, hi-hat, conga, bongo, cymbal, and percussion one-shots—each break delivers its own distinct texture, character, and swing, complete with multiple fills and ghost notes to avoid repetitive patterns. Recorded and processed through analog tube gear, vintage mics, natural room reverbs, and tape machines, this collection captures the authentic warmth and raw feel of a mid-’70s drum break you might find on an obscure Swedish psych or prog record. Perfect for sound designers seeking fresh cadences and rhythmic ideas beyond the standard 4/4 click, “Sweden” offers vibrant, era-specific breaks that ignite new chord progressions and melodies.
