Nicholas “DECAP” Piantedosi began producing beats in junior high, inspired by innovators like J Dilla, Dr. Dre, Pete Rock, and DJ Premier. From the beginning he was drawn to drums, their weight, their movement, and their ability to define the entire feel of a track.

DECAP and Knock Audio Celebrate Black Friday with Exclusive Sound Pack and Bigger-Than-Ever Discounts
We’re all grateful for hard-hitting drums, and DECAP, maker of the iconic sound library Drums that Knock, wants to share the bounty with a Black Friday party that makes it easier than ever to get the sounds that have powered dozens of hits. DECAP’s drum sounds can be heard in tracks by Beyoncé, Kendrick Lamar, and Charli XCX among many others.
“I’m here to help more producers get everything that’s inside of them out, and help them get in the flow to make better tracks. That’s what’s behind what I’m doing with Knock Audio,” DECAP explains.
This year, DECAP and Knock Audio are doing what they’ve never done before, offering some of the sweetest deals ever. The KNOCK plugin is only $69, a significant savings from the usual $149. Producers and beatmakers can get Knock CLIPPER for free for a limited time. They can also grab a first-time bundle offer, which includes the KNOCK plugin and all of the Drums That Knock packs, a $500 value, for just $129.
Along with some of the biggest discounts of the year, DECAP is continuing a holiday tradition: every year, the producer and sound designer adds an extra limited edition sound pack every time someone purchases a plugin. This Black Friday, purchase of the KNOCK plugin will come with an exclusive sound pack of 100 never-before-heard sounds. Like all Drums that Knock, these sounds will hit hard right out of the pack, ready for producers of all levels to make the most of them. (Full list of sound packs here.)
“I craft all my sounds from scratch. I hate repackaged, reheated sounds and dupes, and I don’t put them in my packs,” notes DECAP. “Everything is made so that you don’t need much or any additional mixing. They are ready to go.”
For DECAP, it’s about more than moving packs. It’s about elevating everyone’s production powers, from providing the right tools to giving real guidance and advice via his YouTube channel, Discord, and community livestreams. “I want the power to move people in every producer’s hands,” he says. “Everyone should be able to learn to express themselves and make great-sounding music.”
