About this free crunchy half-time shuffle groove drum loop

This groovy crunchy half-time shuffle drum loop is 68 BPM and 1 bar long. It’s in the style of the classic Jeff Porcaro, Bernard Purdie and John Bonham grooves but with my own twist. What’s that twist? Well, having spent the last few months learning diving deep into Tower Of Power and learning David Garibaldi’s beats, the groove came out a bit more layered and nuanced. I like the unusual feel to it, and the compression, crunch and natural reverb make it sound massive! I’ve even transcribed it, if you’re interested in learning it.

I’ve called it Chaka Shoufflé coz it sounds like Chocolate Soufflé, and I came up with this half-time shuffle whilst noodling between lessons. I got inspired, so decided to record it and offer it as one of my free drums loops. So you can chop it up as you please and have fun with it. This groove is cool because you could use it to write  tons of stuff, be it Pop or Rock. It’s feels great, so go make some music!

Sometimes a simple groove is all it takes to get creative juices flowing! You never know when you might need a groove to inspire creativity!

I hope you enjoy this and other free drum loops on my blog and use it to create!
