Watching this video, the guy mentioned a site where you can download lots of breakbeat/funk drumbreaks. This site has also lots of other free sample content.

Not sure if these were posted before here but I found these free Nord drum 3 samples on the Elektronauts Forum.

Thanks! I love this thread 😊
Very cool. The Nord drum 3 has fantastic sounds. The kits have a really huge variety from realistic to crazy. It’s physical modeling, I believe. At the Eventide booth at Superbooth they had two of them to play with and although the devices are old it was of my favorite sessions I had with a device at the fair. If it wouldn’t be so pricey I would really buy one. It’s so much fun.

My dad passed away six years ago. He spent many of his last years obsessively collecting, researching, and tagging music and old time radio broadcasts, eventually amassing over 60,000 files. He always wanted to do something meaningful with these, but didn't know how.
I recently put up a streaming page with some 6,000 songs from this collection which are in the public domain and fully tagged as a bit of a remembrance for our family. TBH, none of us are likely to make use of it, but it was a nice little project for me.
So, I thought I'd post it here in case anyone wants to troll it for slightly different sampling material. There are recordings there ranging from the 1890's(!) to 1959. It's searchable, and all songs can be downloaded.
There's a small monthly cost to keep this up and running, so it won't likely be up there for too long. I'll update or remove this post if/when I do take it down.

[edit] taken down due to cost increases at the hosting provider. I’ll update here if I end up self hosting.
Amazing share, @wim ! Thank you.
A love of music is obviously a multi generational gift in your family.
Thanks for the kind words @gusgranite. 😎
With my dad it was an obsessive compulsion for collecting more than about the music itself. Let me tell you, it was a huge relief when he learned to collect bits 'n bytes rather than physical goods.
I'm phobic in the opposite direction after the myriads of different collecting phases he went through. Dammit if it didn't skip a generation and lodge firmly in my son though. 😖
@wim Thank you so much for sharing this amazing collection. It's not my usual fare but I listened for hours last night and thoroughly enjoyed it. Downloaded a few that I think would be super interesting as sample sources, too! Wish I could grab all 6000 of them just to listen but hadn't found a way to do that (like the UI otherwise, though!) plus wouldn't want to subject you to potential bandwidth charges.
It's really a lovely tribute to your dad and even though it has been 6 years, I'm sorry for your loss. (Today's my mom's first birthday since her passing last October so it still feels near as I'm sure it still will in 5 more.) ![:heart: :heart:](https://forum.loopypro.com/resources/emoji/heart.png)
Nice, @oddSTAR I'm glad you're enjoying it. When I posted I didn't expect anyone would find it useful. My dad would be thrilled to know that it's finally being appreciated by someone. 😂
I too am surprised that I can now enjoy listening to it. I never appreciated that collection back in the day. What I really find fascinating is how far back a few of those recordings go. I had no idea that it was possible to record audio as far back as 1890.
The portion of his collection that I posted is about 19gb. If you're really interested in downloading it, I could pretty easily set something up. I don't think it would impact my costs, which are trivial to begin with.
What I really should do is share some of the old time radio collection. There are countless hours of live radio shows - variety shows, drama, science fiction, mysteries. Those are where the real interesting sample fodder and entertainment lie.
Thanks @wim very generous of you to share, and a cool way to honor his memory
This is a really cool project @wim - archiving is the work of angels
@wim - just came across this post; I love finding rare/off the beaten path sounds and this collection is very cool. What a great tribute to your dad, even if the music itself wasn't his passion. Thank you for sharing, hopefully you are able to keep this up longer, if not maybe I can throw you a few bucks to help with hosting while I look through it.
Take your time. I'm in no hurry to take it down. It's not costing much to keep up.
Cheers!

Stem Separation ideal!!
Wow only just noticed this, what a cool thing,definitely will be checking out
I tried it doesn’t lead anywhere for me
Sorry, I took it down due to Amazon hosting cost increases.
Maybe I’ll take some time to see if hosting the VM on my home network is practical.
If I do host it at home I could maybe put up the huge old time radio archive as well. Talk about sample fodder. 😳
Definitely let us know if you do! It was an incredible act of love and memory that you did it at all. I was just late to the game![:) :)](https://forum.loopypro.com/resources/emoji/smile.png)
Yea I never noticed that. It would definitely be cool to access this info/media. Maybe there’s another way… I’m sure it’s a lot of data which makes it a bit more complicated.
May he Rest In Peace.
I got a little obsessed lately with learning about the sfz sound font format and decided to create instruments from some of the drum samples I have sitting around.
This first set is the classic Roland TR series based on samples from http://machines.hyperreal.org/manufacturers/Roland/. I've been using these samples forever, but have never had "instruments" that fully leverage some of the sets because of the way the samples are structured. The sfz format provides a way to do that, and isfizz is a wonderful, light sfz player. sFizz and sforzando on the desktop work well too.
NOTE: These files haven't been tested with AudioLayer and probably won't work well with it. These sfz files use a lot of more advanced opcodes that I'm pretty sure AudioLayer won't support.
Recommended: Download and unzip each zip file to a folder on your local device. isfizz throws all kinds of warnings about possible consequences of running from iCloud storage.
The files have midi note mapping to the GM Drum map for compatibility with most internet downloadable midi drum patterns. The top of each sfz file has the note mappings. You can edit these right from the isFizz app if the GM drum map doesn't suit you.
isfizz has a controls tab where you can control Volume and Pan for each sound. Other controls such as Tone, Decay, Snappy, Tune, etc are available when those were included in the original hardware. Each control lists the midi CC associated with it. You can also use the related AUv3 parameter to use your own CC's.
There are also multi-out versions of the sfz files.
There's a README file in each download with further details.
The latest release can be found here: https://github.com/wim-number37/sfz/releases. Scroll down and expand the "Assets" area for individual files.
Or, here are direct links to the individual files.
Great. Thanks
Cheers @wim you’re generosity is admirable
Thanks @Poppadocrock - in this case I'm only sharing something that I did simply for my own purposes anyway.
