Vintage Punk Drums

An unconventional drum library by Ilia Lukashev

Vintage Punk Drums is an instrument with attitude: gritty, rough around the edges, a bit clumsy — but alive. Like a good drummer.

Today, the market is full of pristine and polished sounding multi-mic drum libraries recorded in legendary studios — and that’s great. They offer confident, ready-to-mix sounds straight out of the box. There are also plenty of libraries with a more character-driven, less sterile aesthetic.

A dirty, oversized sound captured in Tbilisi's old "Sano Studio" through a vintage Studer 089 console using an incredible collection of classic microphones —hammered out by a punk-rock drummer with years of live and studio experience.

Perfect for indie and garage rock, punk, raw hip-hop, grunge, lo-fi, and experimental music — anywhere groove, imperfection, and personality matter more than surgical precision.
