Submersible Music TempestaPack I, a new DrummerPack featuring metal, rock, alternative, and industrial loops and GrooveSets was released. It is the result of Submersible Music's teaming with drummer John Tempesta who bangs out the beat for acts like Testament, Rob Zombie, Helmet, and more.

Pre-configured metadata allows TempestaPack I to be used with either the DrumCore or DrumCore LT search engine for easy availability of grooves, fills, variations, and individual drum sounds. These are also categorized by feel, time signature, and tempo, and search criteria can be edited to involve your own methods of organization, however scatterbrained they might be.

Everything on TempestaPack I is organized conveniently into GrooveSets to keep related drum elements together. Many are configured for traditional verse-chorus-verse structures, but with the GrooveSets acting as construction kits, you're not limited to these structures.

TempestaPack I GrooveSets Include:

• Bronx: a 1/16th hi-hat groove with a kinetic kick pattern. 80-170 bpm
• China Town: snare on every beat with double kick frenzy. 120-210 bpm
• General Patton: “Levee-esque” but this one’s not breaking. 115-240 bpm
• Grappa: kick on the downbeat and snare on the up. 180-240 bpm

• Julio: straight 1/8th-to-stuttering hi-hat slosh against 1/16th kicks. 95-170 bpm
• Lost: 1/16th shredfest with cool tom breakdown stuff. 90-120 bpm
• Soho: anticipation mounts with choked hi-hat pauses and 1/8th kick pattern. 130-200 bpm
