Just the right amount of grunge on the drums (and I love the vocal snips). You might try band-pass filters to separate the layers; then you can rough up different frequency ranges to your taste.

You are really up that long every Sunday?

Thanks I will try the bandpasses. Did I get it right that your suggestion is to make 3 or four effekt busses with different bandpasses and send the mix of my clean drum loop to that with different amaounts or would you put the filters directly on each drum sound?

Another smart beat!!! Really good - has a Bangzilla vibe to it without MMMike's cuts.

As for bit crushers - they don't exactly create the same vibe as old samplers do as they include the converter quality etc. to get their sound.

Saying that though a little here and there does add a vibe along with all othe subtle distortion devices like tape machines, compressors, some eq's etc.

Like when mixing to tape - each track gets recorded as well as possible to tape but the tiny amount of distortion etc on eqch track adds up over the mix to give a polished sound that we associate with 'records'. Adding subtle amounts adds up to the sound rather than bollocking the whole mix thru a 12bit reducer plugin.

That said, you should just carry on doing your thing mate - it's good enough to stand on its own.

Hehe Professor G is nice Maybe I should change the alias for next year...
No this one is a drumloop... that's why I call it a remix...

I just tried to redo the drums but didn't get this vibe... cause my own drums are sound always to clean and seperated.

Thanks man you've pointed me to the right direction... for my new Track I've send my drums through a tube preamp for a bit of noise than to a small room reverb for deseperation. Than I used some tape saturations.
Quite nice!
You can judge next week

Another great beat, drums sound good to me as is, love the flute sample and the kung fu movie sample, I thought Rza or Gza was about to bless us with some lyrics

Great groove to this, I like the sound. The noise adds the little extra something.

(Looking forward to hear what your drum beats will sound like next week with your new process.)
