Hi,

Can anyone recommend a funky drum library and a percussion library (mainly congas) to use in the style of early \'70 funk music?

They can both be loop based but with many fills.

thanks images/icons/cool.gif

Funky Elements has a bit of a 70s vibe:

Check out this bizarre yet flavoursome offering from Uberschall, very kitsch, but maybe so kitch it\'s cool! The mp3 left me wanting to hear more:)

The most 70\'s sound I found was \'Disco De Luxe\' - also be Uberschall via Best service:

How about a CD by one of James Brown\'s drummers (john jab\'o starks ). Funkmaster - also at Bestservice.

Hmmm, wonder if I\'m breaking a rule here...
