Abstract: One of many possible embodiments includes a method of recording and organizing drum sequences for use in composing music. The method includes recording a drum performance, separating the recorded drum performance into drum loops, organizing the drum loops into a song set, and providing a unique name for each drum loop. The unique name is descriptive of a possible position or function of each drum loop in the song set. In some embodiments, the song set and the drum loops are named and organized hierarchically to guide composers in conveniently selecting desired drum loops. In some embodiments, one or more song sets is provided on a processor-readable medium.
