    i find it interesting, how such ridiculously simple, overused and similar drum patterns can be diversified with the touch of a confident control over velocity. If you can allow a drum to breath and sing itself like this it makes a common pattern seem more personalized. Great stuff.

      very true, your grooves become more natural, snappy, well said.

      I now find it annoying how lazy producers are especially today in hip hop by having their hi hats be the same velocity instead of changing it to create a natural swing.

    I always do Synths, bassline and lead synth first...drums last

    • @joebenjamin7465
      @joebenjamin7465 5 років тому +2

      With mix-heavy oriented genres such as techno/garage/dnb etc you can afford to lay out your drum patterns early on, then tweak them later, because the track is more likely to be heard in a DJ set, rather than as it's own piece of music or in an album narrative setting

    • @joebenjamin7465
      @joebenjamin7465 5 років тому +1

      Also some would say you should always do drums last, but music is completely subjective and as such so is the creation of it

    true legend in music production
    I think only producer close is
    K Warren , listen to Masqurade
    Mj Cole mixes fantastic !! then listen to K Warren remix, Out of this world !!! but I always prefer the Matlok or Boxclever or the DUB Mj Cole myself over the vocal 2 step bits of late, those who know will know, the Drums n b-line on his wild side dub on sincere was crazy, if you heard that in club back in late 98 even "be sincere" or matlok anyway drop !!! ruff tunes , unfortunately sincere 2002 didn't feature the wild side dub , talkin loud label, the dubs was in 98 on Am Pm label , matt is legend !!
