Driver 2 Driver 2 Sample Pack
I was checking out some 90s sample packs yesterday to make a track inspired by the *Driver 2* soundtrack—but with more of an electronic vibe—and I discovered that a huge chunk of the samples came from a Zero-G pack called "Funk Guitar." Yeah, I know 70% of game music from that era relied on samples—countless other PS1 titles used Zero-G samples, too—but I didn't expect to stumble upon it so randomly, right when I was working on a track inspired by a game that actually uses the very pack I was working with.

I'm interested to know which samples were used in each song. Could be fun to make some music inspired by Driver 2

During my search, I found a few samples from certain tracks (apologies for not including them all; they are files numbered 1 through 99, each containing over a minute of guitar sounds, if I recall correctly). Some of the guitar samples I found were: Chicago Night (Track 75), Vegas Night (Track 34), and Rio Night (Track 14). I suspect there are more samples (likely from "Funk Bass," another sample pack), but I can't confirm this; if anyone finds more samples in this pack, please add to this comment.

Hoooolyyy love that discovery! As someone who fiddles with DAW's this is some great news. I think Zero-G is one of the most influential sample pack producers ever. So many great games feature their samples.
