it's a great collection that has made the bit torrent rounds over the years. near-complete sets of roland/casio/yamaha drum kits, properly sampled.

Re: getting stuff reviewed (65 replies, posted in General Discussion)
in my decade-long career of putting out music and pushing it as best i can, i have got to say, this is the #1 hardest thing. from what i can see, it has nothing at all to do with the quality of the music. ask kaneel about how hard it is to get simple blog reviews of an admittedly fantastic album. it seems like what's lacking here is a pool of writers who have a passion for the material - in essence, proto-music journalists who are more inclined to expound on the virtues of sound art than seek a promotion towards a paid writing position at a hypemachine-focused blog which places adsense dollars and distro feature placement payola above actual music journalism.
...i guess you can say this topic makes me angry, a bit.
