This is the kitchen percussion portion of a multi-part percussion library I put together during my final year of university. It is, by far, the cheekiest of the four categories but still surprisingly useful; I remained committed to layered, detailed sampling and tried to make this collection as musically-viable as possible!

 

The Collection:

• Pots and Pans

—copper and cast-iron cookware, large lids, and a cookie tin full of silverware.

• Things in the Cupboard

—spoons, a pizza cutter, the suctioned pop of a palmed cup, and cheese-cutter wire.

• Bowls

—bell-like strikes and a looping, bowed patch for each bowl!

• The Blender

—not useful, but hilarious. I recorded release triggers for goodness’ sake…
