    Im ascend from dead red. this is very good mate i feel like I'm back in 1994 in the studio. I don't have the arrangement no more. it was done on a commodore amiga using music x.

      UNTOLD LOVE, brother! It wasn't just Dred Bass. What Kind Of World (especially the remix), Real Love, so many BIG tunes that have brought me and countless others joy that can't be put into words. I did write a post - that somehow got lost - about how influential Dred Bass was and how I'd started producing in 1994 when Dred Bass was the new hot ting and I was blown away by the quality of the production. MAJOR SALUTE!
      I'd love to interview you for the channel if you fancy reminiscing about oldskool production. AMIGA! Nice! I had the A600 back in 94.

      Hey Lee, thank you for the amazing music over the years, I've wanted to ask for ages, is there any way to get the Dredbass - World Of Music CD? It's really expensive on Discogs and I can't find it anywhere else, I would love some of the tunes off that, big up!

    I remember hearing this at my first rave Juice on Hastings Pier 1994. Couldn't believe what I was hearing. Total mind meltdown. It got played about 5 times that night and the place went OFF!!!

  • @chrissweetleaf7882
    @chrissweetleaf7882 5 років тому +24

    The 'Metallic' sound on the Amen is simple phasing. Caused by having a duplicate of the same midi track playing at the same time. The sampler would then try to play 2 triggers of the same note at the same time causing a kind of dopler effect sounding like a phaser.

    • @OwenTheGeek
      @OwenTheGeek  5 років тому +3

      Of course, that's the obvious way, but doing it that way doesn't allow you to do the repeated pitch pattern that's heard in Dred Bass

    • @dougbolt7458
      @dougbolt7458 5 років тому +9

      @@OwenTheGeek I believe the varied pitch sounds were done using the different algorithms of time stretching within the Akai samplers. By changing the cycle length you could get varying pitches. Then using a tracker or sequencer to play these re-pitched sounds. Early jungle was all about the Akai and Trackers. It was a much different workflow from our modern times. It is interesting that you can listen to these old tunes and sort of decipher which tracks were using a a sequencer (Early Cubase) vs. a tracker (Octamed). But, they were all running samplers. I'd love to get an old Amiga to run my S-5000, but I'm pretty stuck in more modern ways....

    When this dropped for the first time it sent the scene into a buzz. Nobody had heard a bass like that. One of those landmark tracks that changed things going forward. So funny, it sounded like something advanced and futuristic, and it's just a bass in reverse.

    • @OwenTheGeek

    Hi Owen, You did it, congratulations. Still, the 'magic' of this track will forever be burnt into my soul. Dead dred, created something truely special, intelligent, and perfectly-right for that single moment in history. How, exactly they created this masterpiece, given the tools at the time, should be marvelled at, and celebrated. This music was created, through the mind of a creator, who envisioned a future. It's like reading versus writing. A recreation is a reading of the track, this process is completely different to writing the track.

    I gotta say this is an absolutely amazing clone/recreation of the Dred Bass tune. It's pretty much identical to the original, you did an incredible job man. The only one thing I would say is slightly off is the slope on the reverse bass, which there needs to be less off so the sound is more instant. It would probably just need a bit removed from the front of the sample after reversing it so there's less silence when you trigger it. Apart from that it's amazing.

    @SturdyPete 6 років тому +2

    great video. I'm pretty sure the way the "metallic" effect on the amen break was done in a hardware sampler by layering two of the same notes together at exactly the same point. Because MIDI can't actually cause two notes to start at exactly the same time, the sampler would play the sample twice but with one instance starting very shortly after the other. Using a very short delay creates exactly the same effect, but back in the day that would have been much less readily available a tool.

    • @OwenTheGeek
      @OwenTheGeek  5 років тому +1

      That would be the obvious way to get that sound, but there are many more ways. Doing it the obvious way wouldn't allow you to produce the repeated pitch pattern as heard in Dred Bass.
