I missed last week (oh no!) but back this week with an Amen banger. This is just TD-3, Renoise, and MY amen break.
I finally got my own copy of Amen, Brother by the Winstons 45 which I had been thinking about for a long time considering how much I have used the break in music this year. I paid $7 and my copy was very clean in my opinion, really couldn't have asked for more.
I really didn't expect much to be different from using the 45 considering i had recorded the break off of streaming in the past and figured this would feel similar. I was blown away by what it was like to play and record the break off of my own stereo. I feel like it sounds better than anything i've tried before and it was so rewarding to work with it in this way. For me, it has more clarity and presence, and it was easier to EQ and shape into what I wanted. The whole experience felt more organic and less forced than working with the same break had felt to me in the past. Super cool and very glad i did it.
I am sorry this is not very copyright kosher, but any copyright action on the Amen break would have to be brought against tens of thousands of tracks at this point so I feel safe hiding in the crowd. In general, I am moving my music towards copyright free breaks so this will only be a treat every now and then.
Thank you for the recommendations on dissonance, it was incredibly helpful, i feel very grateful. I will be trying these things out in the near future.
Congrats to everyone for making it half way! it's been a trip with you all and looking forward to closing out this year strong!
(don't mind the dust, i did actually clean it thoroughly before recording)
