174 BPM is where drum and bass lives. The genre spans 160 to 180, but the dancefloor settled on 174 as the default: fast enough for a two-step to roll, slow enough for the bass to imply half that and the snare on three to feel like a heartbeat. Liquid rollers, jungle chops, neurofunk and jump-up all share the tempo and differ in the drums, which is exactly what a loop library is for.
Every loop was generated with DrumLoop AI and curated by ear, locked to exactly 174 BPM so it sits on your grid with no stretching. The drum and bass library goes deeper by style, the drum breaks library has the chop-ready material, and the 170 BPM and 180 BPM libraries flank it. Need a feel these 28 loops do not cover? Describe it, set 174 BPM, and generate an original royalty-free loop in seconds. Browse the full free drum loops library for more tempos.
FAQs
Are these 174 BPM drum loops royalty-free?
Yes. Every loop in this pack is 100% royalty-free. Start DrumLoop AI's free two-day trial, download the WAVs, and use them in commercial or non-commercial tracks with no clearance and no attribution.
Why is drum and bass 174 BPM?
Convention and physics. The genre grew out of 160 BPM jungle and crept up as production got tighter; 174 is where a two-step rolls without the snare feeling rushed, and where the halftime bass sits at a comfortable 87. Most modern DnB is within two clicks of it.
Are these loops in halftime or two-step?
Both. The rollers and jump-up loops are two-step with the snare on two and four; the halftime loop puts the snare on three so the groove is felt at 87. Mix them in one track for the drop and the breakdown.
Can I make my own 174 BPM drum loop?
Yes. Describe the beat ("liquid roller, tight snare, ghost notes, ride wash"), set the tempo to 174 BPM, and DrumLoop AI generates an original royalty-free loop in seconds. The free two-day trial includes generation credits.
Need a different groove at 174 BPM?
