Marco Polo Presents Pad Thai Collection Vol 2 – MPC Kits + Bonus Drums

Plenty of drum packs arrive already overcooked. Marco Polo Presents Pad Thai Collection Vol 2 still sounds like work on the MPC: 24 composed programs with drums, bass, and musical beds, plus the Marco Polo Pad Thai Vol 2 bonus kit with 195+ dusty drum and bass-tone one-shots from Marco’s catalog. That catalog covers work with Rakim, Scarface, Masta Ace, Pharoahe Monch, Westside Gunn, and Talib Kweli. Punch comes before polish.

What’s Inside Marco Polo Presents Pad Thai Collection Vol 2

Volume 2 continues the Pad Thai lane with deeper custom breakbeat work. Full programs cover fast inspiration. One-shots cover serious rewriting.

24 programs built for quick decisions

Each kit/pgm includes musical, bass, and drum elements. Some feel relaxed. Some feel like a basement session. I load two programs, mute melodies, and keep whichever bass line still knocks under my own drums.

Bonus Marco Polo Pad Thai Vol 2 drum kit

Over 195 drum sounds, bass tones, and bonus content. Dusty. Raw. DAW compatible. These tones show up across Marco productions with Artifacts, Boot Camp Clik, KRS-One & Buckshot, Large Professor, Masta Ace, Roc Marciano, Skyzoo, Rah Digga, Ras Kass, and others. When I need a snare with record weight, this bonus kit is the first folder I open.

Using Marco Polo Presents Pad Thai Collection Vol 2 in Practice

Expansion content runs in the Akai MPC ecosystem, including MPC Beats and compatible hardware/software. Bonus WAV files load in Ableton Live, FL Studio, Logic Pro, Cubase, and similar hosts.

Arrangement steps that stick

1. Audition Collection Vol 2 programs near your tempo.
2. Keep or rewrite the bass.
3. Replace program drums with Pad Thai Vol 2 one-shots for chop control.
4. Add a breakbeat layer under the hats.
5. Keep processing light. These sounds want space.

Why This Pad Thai Collection Stays in Rotation

Character beats convenience. Minimal processing means you shape the kit for the vocal in front of you. The bonus catalog tones also shortcut you toward Marco’s recorded aesthetic without guessing.

In my experience, one strong Pad Thai snare plus a Collection Vol 2 bass bed finishes more beats than three polished modern kits that never quite lock.

Best fit for this collection

• Boom-bap and sample-based hip-hop producers
• MPC users who want programs and one-shots together
