80s Drum Collections is a retro-inspired drum library designed for the Yamaha MODX and Montage M - ESP. The soundset delivers 80 vintage-style drum kits capturing the iconic rhythm aesthetics of 1980s pop, Euro Disco and Italo Disco productions. Each kit has been carefully designed to reproduce the punch, groove and character of the drum machines that shaped the sound of an entire decade.
The library includes drum kits inspired by legendary machines such as LinnDrum, Oberheim DMX, E-MU SP-12, E-MU Drumulator and Yamaha RX5, widely used in classic 80s productions. Many kits recall the recognizable drum sound of artists like Modern Talking, Bad Boys Blue, Samantha Fox, Sandra, Michael Cretu and Alphaville, delivering authentic Euro Disco grooves. The collection also includes rhythmic styles inspired by Italo Disco classics such as Gazebo – I Like Chopin, P-Lion – Happy Children and Ryan Paris – Dolce Vita.
To enhance playability, every drum kit is paired with dedicated arpeggios, combining factory Yamaha arpeggios with custom patterns programmed to recreate recognizable rhythmic movements typical of classic 80s hits. This makes the library perfect for producers and performers who want instant access to authentic retro drum grooves directly inside their Yamaha workstation.
