3:45 was dope! Good tips. I also like the sustained drone bassline. The 'verse' sections of *Burning Skyline* by Front Line Assembly is one example the springs to mind.
hey! yeah sure, my next video is a full walkthrough of a song. I'll make everything step by step. IDK if it's gonna be that track in particular though. Could be 🤔 I'm also recording some unedited/long EBM videos for Patreon! 🤘
haha oh yeah 100% BUT tbh I feel like rammstein were strongly inspired by ebm (and ministry of course lol). You can pretty much translate every rammstein's riff into an ebm bassline. I guess it's a mixture of what was popular at that time in Germany.
My theory is that the transposition thing is from the early days of Nitzer Ebb where Bon Harris had to program the bassline into an sh-101 between songs. So I suspect that to get more mileage out of the bass riffs he would use the pitch mod wheel to push it up or down as needed Worth mentioning that if someone is doing this, when programming the primary baseline, it is best to stick to notes in the scale that don't really change the tonality of the underlying chord (ie stay away from thirds, because they can be major or minor, and transposing up will sound that little bit wrong. Then again, this is industrial. Sounding a little bit wrong is what it's all about! Great vid, thanks for posting
Hey! yeah you,re 100% correct. Although I don't know about that pitchwheel thing. However, when I started making music (with hardware sequencers, RM1X was my first hehe) it was MUCH easier to transpose the whole thing, up or down than it was to modify a particular sound/note. My guess was that he just transposed the whole bass riff because it was easier and it ended up being a trademark hehe Thanks for the comment man :) 🤘
@@Tonepusher yeah, the SH-101 sequencer could only transpose the entire sequence, but there were some, like Yamaha's QY sequencers, that could transpose within set scales. Don't know which if any bands used those features, but they existed at least. Though at least the Yamaha QY-10 couldn't quite do scale transpositions in real time, you had to program a series of sequences into song mode and tell it where to transpose within that, whereas the TB-303, SH-101 and other synths and sequencers of the era could do rough transpositions instantly by the press of a button or turn of a knob.
Great vids. Hey where can I find voice samples. Like voices over radios like space command, military radios, etc. You had one of those voices in your last example. There must be a way I can buy a lot of them. I would be willing to pay for them thanks.
Man I can't stop binge watching your videos! 😁Purely for nostalgic value. I still make Industrial stuff alongside synth pop, both genres pretty much dead... or are they? I'm not too much in touch with reality last couple of years. Anyway, still enjoying doing it so wgaf 🤘😆 anyway, that first bassline reminds me of Poupee Fabrikk from "Crusader" album '92 so much. Funny band. 😂 In a dark kinda way.
haha yeah I thought about that. You can find them on my Patreon. It's the "Old school ebm" post. www.patreon.com/tonepusher But I have a video in line where I talk about my favorite drumkits for EBM and Industrial. 🤘🏻

haha thanks 🤘
Dude…. bass lines suck for me trying to create EBM/Industrial music. This was a huge help. Thank you!
haha no problem man! Happy it could help :) 🤘
3:45 was dope!
Good tips. I also like the sustained drone bassline. The 'verse' sections of *Burning Skyline* by Front Line Assembly is one example the springs to mind.
Really helpful and clear 🙏
hey thank you so much :) 🙏
Definitely giving me some ideas already
It's so simple. Seems like the1. But I was need it
Great video 😃 !
thanks 🤘🏻
dark and doom nice
I feel like I hear hocketing fairly often in this genre too, although not tons of it. Maybe a few notes in each bar. Always sounds really cool.
lovely! can you make maybe a tutorial, track walkthrough of the last one? i love it so much! maybe for patreon :)

@@Tonepusherthanks a lot, the last song would be great cause of the sample editing and so on, it really hits my nail :D
The last pattern sounds like it could be form an old Megadrive/Genesis game :)
haha true! Genesis had some GREAT soundtracks 👌🏻 There's nothing like good old videogame soundtracks hehe
I just love everything what you do!!!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
hey! np :)
My goodness those basslines are dope.
haha thanks man!! 🤘🏻
superb again tonepusher🥰
thanks man :)
This is the channel that I’ve been wanting. Instant subscribe.
haha yeah 🤘 thanks man
Hi Tonepusher .All great Industrial groups.Great work breaking those killer basslines right down to the bone. Reg Plasma
hey thanks man :) 🤘
Just came across this. Very cool.
haha thanks 🤘
The Rammstein-Pattern can also be called "DAF-Pattern (Deutsch-Amerikanische-Freundschaft, Tanz den Musolini) :)
haha oh yeah 100%
BUT tbh I feel like rammstein were strongly inspired by ebm (and ministry of course lol). You can pretty much translate every rammstein's riff into an ebm bassline. I guess it's a mixture of what was popular at that time in Germany.
Rammstein not influenced by ebm at all, kmfdm was the band they ripped off along with oomph
Man you got exactly what im looking for all the time :Ddd
haha np man! happy to help 🤘

thanx mate, really useful, subscribed
thanks to you :)
Just found your channel. love it
hey thank you!! 🤘
Great synthwave/retrowave basslines. Industrial? Maybe.
Best channel of UA-cam 🎉

hey thanks my friend! ⚙⚙⚙

There's a lot of them online. But this one was coming from Splice!
awesome tutorial
thanks man :)

yeah I know Poupee Fabrikk, I don't remember that song tho 🤔 I'll check that out!
And One alike..cool
True! And One are making basses like that pretty often 👌🏻
What a great video! 💯 May I ask you a question: what synth did you use for demonstrating the 1st trick?
Everything is serum and the sounds are from my "old school ebm" pack 🤘🏻

@@Tonepusher Thank you!
Front 242!
legends! 🤘⚙🤘⚙
Awesome
thanks man :) 🤘🏻
cool stuff bro!
hey thanks man 🤘🏻
Happy Easter T.P.! 😉👍
hey thanks you too :)🤘🏻
Are you going to do full versions of these songs and make them available online?
Well maybe not these ones in particular. But yes I'm working on some 90's flavoured industrial music! 🤘
That sounds really cool, thanks for the video! Will there be a project file with all these examples on Patreon? :)
Yes! There's already 1 or 2 that are from the ''old school ebm'' post. You can get the whole templates.
2:51 could you tell me where I'd would find some ebm vocal samples like this?
Sure, I took them from Splice and added some EQ+reverb. You can also easily make yours with any mic! If it was for an album that what I would do.🤘
Awesome stuff!
thanks man 🤘🏻
Anyone that have bought sub factory for mpc and can tell me if it is good for ebm?
i'm a simple person, i see laibach and kmfdm and i click
haha that's what I do too!
Now I have names to describe things! :D
loll 🤘
what artist is at 1:39
It's Laibach! 🤘
Was that Rammstein inspired one from Wulfband?
No haha it's literally a Rammstein riff, it's the "links 2 3 4" riff. I think there's maybe one note that is different.
@@Tonepusher haha I Guess Wulfband is a slut for Rammstein riffs
That first one reminds me of Spetsnaz
haha true! great band
we need them drums cutie
haha yeah I thought about that. You can find them on my Patreon. It's the "Old school ebm" post.
