Drum breaks on vinyl anyone?

Posted on by TimSlamming

 So being a drummer and all,  I’m thinking of recording some drum breaks and getting them pressed to vinyl for people to buy. I checked some pricing and it seems feasible. Not the most lucrative of endeavours but a shit load of fun and or misery. The most important thing is, can I play something half decent?! Ha maybe I’ll give Bernard Perdie a call.

Anyway I would love to hear some feedback or if anyone would be interested.

The recordings would be 1/4 inch reel to reel, or into protools, and from 2 different kits and a few different rooms. Whatever sounds dope really.

Cheers.

Making New Mini 808 Sample pack “808 into MPC60”

Posted on by TimSlamming

808 into the  MPC60 Drum Kit


This will be an 808 mini Drum kit consisting of 16 Drum hits. All samples were from the TR-808 sampled into the MPC60. Its a bit Dirty. I made it all fit on to one old 720kb Floppy on the 60, so u get some of the machines truncation artefacts at the end of samples, its like a slight dull click.  Also on the longer samples like the cymbal, you can here some slight sounds of the sequencer ticking away in the background. I thought about removing it, but I thought what they hell, its got some character from the old unit. The bass drum doesn’t have the sequencer noise in case your wondering. Anyway this kit will be ready soon.
