Some places/sites for legit samples?

[Woah]

Hey, I'm in need of some good samples suited for dance (house,tech etc) (mostly drums/percussion)
Google finds a whole list of stuff and I'm kind of in over my head here and digging through the crap is going to take ages, so do any of you know some gems?

You can't avoid the "sorting through the crap" - that's what DJ'ing boils down to.

It's YOUR interpretation of what's "crap" that will make or break you as a DJ. DJ'ing is 90% work, and 10% play. If you're lucky.

This.

Try loopmasters and sounds to sample.

I ment more along the lines of sound quality Sure a "crappy" sample is subjective. Was just looking for a push in the right direction...

Sound quality can be directly related to free vs paid. That said not all paid are going to be good and not all free are going to be bad. Try this thread for some legit free sample packs. It's an old thread so they may not all work anymore.

Also, Maschine is loaded with tons of samples, if you ever want to invest in one.

MusicRadar has published gigabytes of free samples. I could not find via internet search the definite location where you could access them all, think there's one point. Meanwhile if you do a search you could get access to the various web uploads.

Many are 16-bit but still quite useable for making interesting tracks.
