What's happening dudes?

It's time to make some new videos. Any ideas? I've been listening to some classic Photek in the car so fancied making a video about making some classic dark drum and bass using drum racks. But suggestions welcome. If you're gonna ask me to do videos about a specific artist, could you post a link that's is an example of the sound? Many thanks.

Ahhh i see... alot happens in a year,I was just going through the archives... Would like to ask you a question regarding Photeks drum sound..

Hi James. I honestly can’t remember as this post was from a year ago, but I doubt it’ll be long before I make a video along these lines.

Ned Rush

Did this ever happen Ned?

Samwell

DJ Bobo?

Maris Skuja

make sure to include @Ain't no party like an S club party@ vocal clip for extra brownie points - Stretch goal: replace S with Acid/ add @id@ to the S in club. OR don't. P.s. screw german keyboard

He was on RepHlex?!

Tebbisimo

well the OS is basically the same, just less user friendly....so should be some cheap ones on the 2nd market atm...

Tebbisimo

Dude I know I have some dark dnb that no one wants inside me...but I think it will be more like Jodey Kendrick/Lord of the D. Plz enable me!

Tebbisimo

yeah All the Fuckin' As is a banger! I certainly do, and I will mate thank you! Is it reaaaaally just breaks?! But like tweaked different breaks right, to get that variation ? Or is it just afterwards?

Tebbisimo

Ok everyone. I've got something for a new video involving crazy 303 acid and music styles not a million miles from ones you've suggested although I won't name names or try to copy their sound, just have a laugh with the wacky music.

Ned Rush

Re the probability thing. Do you have Max For Live? If so check out a device I made called MashUp.

Ned Rush

It just drum breaks dude, download some drum breaks. I do like dgoHn though, I had a record on Rephlex he was on. I see its on Love Love now.

Ned Rush

Man, that would be wicked. Especially with your teaching style (once you understand that beast)

I'm thinking of getting an Octatrack too, haven since years.

Ned Rush

..side question: do you happen to have any Elektron kit? I'm seriously looking into the Octatrack (desire/want for gear vs better version of Ableton).

judd meng

I'm with Haus, blow our minds yet again!

judd meng

All duly noted.

u might have fun with this from Beatwife? :P <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6CMuDP5hFBU" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6CMuDP5hFBU</a> Acid sounds im not sure

Tebbisimo

But yeah, generally how you give body and dynamism to spamming samples for dnb and jungle etc. Like, are there any rules? Like make reverbs for your bassy bits, that go somewhere to the right, and then do something with other stuff blah blah. Or if you just leave the drums down the center and Im just shit

Tebbisimo

Dark drum n bass sound great !!! I'm lot into Ruby my dear : <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-n1l3rf8HRA" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-n1l3rf8HRA</a> Breakcore with acide sounds, making some good acid sounds will be a video theme maybe

Mayeut Tazbou

well actually, the drum funk stuff is more in here: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJIGQFCLmpA" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJIGQFCLmpA</a> You know....that realness between hits...how do you capture that. It can't just be a well placed Rimshot....

Tebbisimo

Yeah that would be super super cool... I've been playing with instrument rack slices as well....and then having a knob to change the break...so the structure of the beat is the same, but you can create these cool variations... I would still love to see you link a "Probability" Knob to the midi stuff drawn in the drum loop......100% = exactly what I writted...20% gates 80% of the midi commands?!? I dunno... I think it would be super cool to have that kind of control during it, but it's just a different way. Dark dnb would be lovely. Any idea how those Drum Funkers like DgHonn do it!? Is it velocity and just multi-timbre samples, or is there other trickery with samples n shizzle? Liiike... <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sNaq9gmsBCY" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sNaq9gmsBCY</a>

Tebbisimo

That's kind of what I was thinking.

Ned Rush

Dark drumnbass sounds fun - apart from that - how about an environment for a live breakcore set maybe (or y no want to breakcore no more)? Is it mostly about randomizing chopped up beat samples, follow actions and distortion/timestretch? Push II absolutelunecessaru?!
