It's a rough time to do this politically, but it's the most significant thing holding me from sharing with you all. Music is my biggest passion, and I am clearly not alone. I am excited to carry on unearthing what moves us as humans. "A nice blend of prediction and surprise seems to be at the heart of the best art." - Wendy Carlos

    I am here because my 5 year old boy absolutely loves this part of Terrible Lie. Thank you for posting these. 🙏

    The baseline synth on closer was actually from a sample pack sold in the 90s called "A poke in the ear" He used and akai sampler while recoding it in the studio It was put through post processing with sample delay ect but the original sample was pretty much left untouched.

    Thank you for this. It's crazy how good Trent and his team were at sound design, how much they must have paid attention to that. They weren't just using presets, apparently, they really dialed everything in carefully.

    I’ve been experimenting around with having the filter open up for the higher notes and I have found that it works even with sounds that I’ve recorded to make my own lead sounds.

  • @DielectricFailure
    @DielectricFailure 7 місяців тому

    I know I’m late to the game, but I’m glad I found this video. I’ve been trying to get a similar baseline and one of my songs, but I think if you added a little bit of course to this, you would be dead spot on perfect.

    Can you identify which sounds from pretty hate machine are the minimoog? Because I don't know that much of phm used the minimoog based on the sounds I hear and the other instruments he said he had access to.

    Thank you for your Synth Breakdown videos! They all translate very well into the EURORACK/Modular world which I am looking for any edge in sound design. Keep up the good work. SIDENOTE - Da Funk might be fun!

    I didn't recreate this bassline but I did something inspired by it which was even cooler for me. Thanks for this
