Recorded in his local church in Grebbestad, Sweden by music producer Tobias Marberger, this set of music samples should be invaluable to amateur and professional musicians alike.
For this version of the hard-to-find files, Tobias Marberger has officially Creative Commons-licensed the samples with a Sampling+ license. The multitude of samples includes percussion of many different kinds (anvil, snare, wood sticks, hi-hats, brush plate, bongos), as well as piano, organ, mandolin, glockenspiel, flute, and many other high-quality recordings.
