Equipped with an MPC and a box of vinyl, Jay Dee (aka J Dilla) inspired generations of beatmakers to dig through crates for samples, chop up drums, and create entire masterpieces from the comfort of their bedrooms.





Embedded in the roots of jazz, soul, R&B, Jay Dee and his group Slum Village looked to the past for inspiration and created a path for the future. Pay homage to his years of crate digging with this collection of drums from Fantastic Volumes 1 and 2 and other Jay Dee recordings.
