Awesome to see Oora here 👍💜 You pretty much listed out my upbringing with that dub selection. Jan Jelinek, Pole, Chain Reaction and of course Tillianders TM-404 project, awesome stuff!
TM-404 is ACID, Jan Jelinek is Clicks & Cuts/Microhouse, Chain Reaction is half experimental ambient and half minimal techno. Do people nowadays call everything Dub that has a delay or reverb in it?
@@hanshandkante5055 i guess people call it all sorts of things, but you’re right, they are all those things as well, but dub is a huge part for those artists. I think a big part is perhaps their references and how and what they create with, but also their use of bass, as was the case with Scape~ with big dub influences.

@@sazianasazi1182 Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think he doesnt use the pedal board on the top right.

Hey man, this was a cool video.. I think you've out done yourself this time! I really enjoyed the intro/history part and I think your editing and production actually improved a little bit from past videos. Not to say what you were doing was bad before, I've been a fan for a while now and support you on multiple platforms, just saying, seems you keep getting better! Kudos! Looking forward to more productions!
Quality jam and tips, Sir! How do you get your kicks to sit so well in the mixes. I can never get my 909 or other kick drums sitting right eq slotting wise with the bass in my mixes? @@OoraMusic
at 22:33 ish the delays take on a sucking quality (almost reversed-sounding). how is that achieved here. or is it some form of sidechain? Thank for your documentary 👍
Hey I envy you this studio beautiful machines surround you from everywhere. I have a question about those effects from the zed 10 mixer is that you have set one by one in a row? And is the Delay before the reverb or after it? write me the full name of this zero control device. bartek
Fantastic thanks for your knowledge .. I loved the AM1 with 6 Aux so took a look at the price and my jaw completely fell off!! $84,000 !! Glad you did a budget one !!
@@paultorbert6929 Yeah still way out of my price range .. I grabbed a Tascam Model 24 the other year it has 3 Auxs and i use splitters to extend to other fx . I wish someone would come out with an Aux send heavy small mixer i'm pretty sure there would be a market for it. Most only have 2 Aux which is pretty limiting but pushes creation i suppose .
And to follow up on this, if anyone's reading.. I can't tell if I'm supposed to just modulate the sends on my mixer, or both the sends and the feedback of the delay unit? Do most people toggle with both, or should I find a sweetspot with the feedback on the delay unit and just mess wiht the send knobs on the mixer? I guess I can just continue doing what feels right.
Nice video! Regarding the budget version; it can also perfectly be done inside #AbletonLive or #Bitwig . A MIDI controller with some faders and / or encoders would come in handy, too. But nothing fancy actually.
If you like the sound it creates then of course it’s okay. Many brilliant musicians have made a signature sound doing things in a different or even “wrong” way.
I don't expect to create hate, honestly. But I think there are good things and one bad thing in this video. The good things are the selection of reference artists in the world of electronic dub and the approach to this style at the level of equipment. The bad thing is that using lots of delay and reverb over any electronic base doesn't make it dub. If you listen to any of the references indicated at the beginning of the video (Pole, Basic Channel...) there is a characteristic pulse that refers to the original dub, a certain Jamaican warmth that does not exist in many of the productions of the so-called dub techno or derivatives. Just an opinion. Good video anyway.
@@OoraMusic and in no way did I say that :). I just wanted to point out that Dub, although it is built on the use of certain technical elements, it carries a certain character, sonority, etc. that goes beyond the use of those technical elements on any musical material.
It seems that you're basically saying that the music he is making is not dub / dub techno, but I think the majority of people who hear it would call it dub techno without a thought. He's not defining dub, he's just showing some of the process he uses in his own music. I don't think it has to sound like Pole, Basic Channel or whatever to be dub techno, they have not defined any particular rules. You may prefer the character etc. of their music, but that does not mean that it defines what dub / dub techno is. Your comments seem to lack any substance. Can you specifically say how this 'characteristic pulse', 'certain character' etc. is achieved and where it has been referenced that this particularly defines dub? I'm not trying to create any conflict either, I'm just genuinely curious as a lover of this genre.
Basic Channel Top of all time ..with new stuff soah they don't get the same sound as with the rudimentary stuff of old Fluxion ,Maurizio,Rod modell,Monolake,Octex,Dublicator...etc
I really appreciated the historic journey of the technical aspects of dub ( the spiritual and consciousness dimensions exist too!), thanks, but to be perfectly and respectfully frank with you ( and I don’t know if this was intended), but your demo did not sound like dub at all! I would advise turning everything off except your Digitakt, build a master drum kit and just make 16 unique dub beats.
To be perfectly and respectfully frank with you, your advice sounds like you're trying to be condescending yet you're not giving good advice at all. If you think it does not sound like dub, can you not advise him about techniques/processes/elements that would actually make it sound more like dub? Or do you not have that knowledge? I mean, if you could reasonably and specifically tell him what he is doing wrong, you would come across as someone who knows what he is talking about, but in absence of this, how do you expect him or anyone to take you seriously? Anyone with no clue about dub could say what you did.
@@Pharmacymusic1 I believe I more than hinted that the spiritual and consciousness aspects of dub need to be considered in any treatise of the genre, and even went on to encourage the composer to research the 16 unique beats of dub, and why they exist. I did think about this in the meantime, and I admit here that I rushed to the presumption that by "dub", the composer meant "dub reggae". Were they techniques of "dubbing" rather than the genre of "dub reggae" that are being applied to what we are referring to here as "techno dub", then I totally apologise for presumptious and misplaced advice. However, if we are talking "dub reggae", then I still stand by all I've said above.
My comments keep getting deleted so I'm using a different account in the hope that you will get this one. It seems to be my bad bro. When you said make 16 unique dub beats I didn’t know that there are actually 16 classic beats of dub that can be researched. I thought that you were literally just telling hime to practice lol, but I should have figured out that you wouldn’t just use an arbitrary number like 16. Anyway, this seems to be good advice for anyone who makes dub or dub techno and I’d be interested in the 16 beats myself. I’ve looked them up online and can’t find anything about them, can you point me in some direction of where to find out about them? Sorry for the misunderstanding bro. @@prezellthomas6065
