      This hilarious to me bc even though I got into making music on a computer bc of rap and electronic… I’ve ended up composing classical pieces and use so much of what I’ve learned from classical composers. In the beginning it seemed so much for feasible than learning an instrument and even worse having to record live stuff. In other words if you find this interesting, you should definitely give it a try.

There is a useful break / drumroll in the 1994 prodigy track 'Voodoo people' otherwise known as the 'voodoo break.' I will be using this in my new tracks. Any of your tips or advice on Arranging & EQing in a future video would be much appreciated.. Thanks ;)

    I suppose when talking about frequency ranges to boost in order to bring out certain elements of the amen, it really varies depending on the pitch (speed) you're playing the amen. Really isnt a catch all. I've always found the amen difficult to mix properly because there's such a big freq range too it. Great video as ever man!

    • @final_animal
      @final_animal 7 місяців тому

      For sure, it's a useful guide though to demonstrate what this kind of EQ technique can do to a break in general. I didn't know I could/should EQ this many points on a drum break to get that kind of sound, so while it doesn't apply to other pitches, the technique is the helpful inspiration.

    I must admit I haven’t heard anything like this before.
    It’s like minimal industrial jump up.
    I know DJ Hazard played “Mongrel” by the same artist.
    I think Konichi has really carved him self his own sound.
