Ashes & Air
Loose, low-slung acoustic groove

Recorded in Wexford, Ireland
A growing library of original drum loops, percussion and fully formed rhythmic ideas — made to be pulled apart, reshaped and put to work in your music.
The library
Every release is supplied as a 24-bit / 48 kHz WAV download once you have free download access.
Loose, low-slung acoustic groove
Dry kit, deep backbeat and warmth
Natural hand percussion with movement
The first three releases are being prepared for the new library. Existing archive material will follow.
Behind the sounds
I’m Paul Grace, a drummer and producer based in the south-east of Ireland. I make loops from acoustic kits, electronic percussion and whatever catches my ear in the studio.
These are not anonymous sample-pack fragments. They’re the ideas I want to hear in a track: played, recorded and mixed to have character before you do anything to them.
Simple licence
Use, edit and mangle the loops in personal and non-commercial projects under Creative Commons Attribution–NonCommercial 4.0. For film, advertising, releases or other commercial use, email me and we’ll sort the right licence.
