Pad Thai Deluxe features the cream of the crop taken from Marco Polo's highly acclaimed and internationally known" Pad Thai" drum kit series. Known for having some of the hardest and dustiest drums in the game, Marco Polo has spent years digging for records and applying that same approach to assembling his drum kits. Marco has produced for some of the greats in Hip Hop such as Rakim, Scarface, Masta Ace, Pharoahe Monch, Westside Gunn & Talib Kweli, to name a few. This is essentially Pad thai on a whole new level with 24 brand new fully composed beats/pgms including musical, bass and drum elements to get your beats knocking with minimal effort. A mixture of laid back vibes to the dirt and grit of Brooklyn, New York, where Marco calls home. Use the presents and demos to catch your own vibe or guide you on a new musical journey. These sounds are ready to rock RAW with minimal processing. Punch, thump and dirt is the name of the game here. Whether it's one-shots or chopped original breakbeats, this kit has you covered for the inspiration to produce any modern or old school Hip Hop vibe.
