Here, have some beats. They're on me.

This is my first stab at actually recording some drum n' bass shit and I'm happy enough with how it turned out to share with ILX. The drums are live, albeit sped up about 20 bpm. The synthery is a bit wack, I know.

Here is a longer version with a New Orleans section and a hip-hop section tacked on in front of the jungle shit. They're much sloppier and sillier, but I just wanted to see how much music I could make on my own.

Yeah, they look like they have much hotter shit. What's that guy have, a keytuba?

(seriously jordan that's some fucking impressive drumming. please lose the synth scratching before you lose the synths)

― vahid (vahid), Wednesday, 23 June 2004 23:25 (twenty-two years ago)

Actually the scratching was me scraping a drumstick on the bottom of my snare drum.

(I know it sounds dorky!)

Nick, I could just (g)mail it to you if you'd like.

― Jordan (Jordan), Wednesday, 23 June 2004 23:43 (twenty-two years ago)

YAY! That would be awesome!

vahid otm, yr pretty hot dude!

the other funny thing: on the midpaced one i am assuming the shuffly percussion-loaded bit at the beginning is the "new orleans section" and the bit with the *scratching* at the end is the "hip hop section". just thought i'd point out that post-neptunes post-nelly etc the shuffly second line bit at the beginning sounds like next year's big hip hop hit.

ooh ooh gmail me to! buttch@

― oops (Oops), Wednesday, 23 June 2004 23:54 (twenty-two years ago)

Haha, thanks dude. That reminds me, I always wished the Neptunes would take it down South a bit more and do another "Bouncin' Back", that's some second-line shit.

(x-post, will do)

Gmails have been sent.

just listened to the short clip. the drums sound good! very live sounding, but with enough processing to suit my taste. I like that lil stall w/the faint snare roll at the beginning.

― oops (Oops), Thursday, 24 June 2004 00:14 (twenty-two years ago)

That sounds alright! Good job.

Gmail me too please! I'll have to track my comp speakers down to hear it, tho.

― Andrew Blood Thames (Andrew Thames), Thursday, 24 June 2004 07:35 (twenty-two years ago)

jordan this gmail thing yeah?

― gaz (gaz), Thursday, 24 June 2004 09:09 (twenty-two years ago)

Done. Do you think it would be possible to actually make a keytuba?

― Jordan (Jordan), Thursday, 24 June 2004 11:41 (twenty-two years ago)

Is that a RICKENBACKER keytuba?!

― Jordan (Jordan), Thursday, 24 June 2004 11:42 (twenty-two years ago)

Thanks J, I'll get back to this when I manage to hear it

― Andrew Blood Thames (Andrew Thames), Thursday, 24 June 2004 11:43 (twenty-two years ago)
