If you’re ever looking for songs to sample, inspiration, or anything else music related on the web, you gotta start with the blogs. I found a great link through a thread at Future Producers to the music blog, Digital Meltdown; who compiled an extensive list of music blogs….and i’m passing it on to you. Totally [...]
After my Logic Delay Designer post last week, I had a couple people request some Logic Pro Space Designer presets ASAP…..Ask and you shall receive! There are alot of great presets here and you’ll probably never come close to using them all but in my opinion, you can never have enough.
If your looking for some new drum samples to chop and flip, go check out the Lerrie Sample Packs. Each sample pack contains 10 old school songs for you to downoad, vibe out to, and sample from. The first volume had some old Teddy Pendergrass and Martha Reeves & The Vandellas joints…..cool stuff.
I found some links over at FutureProducers posted by one of their members, Ronnie Creed. Ronnie has uploaded some “rare ass drums” that were “ripped straight from vinyl” to his MySpace. The volumes will take about 10 minutes EACH to download but they’re worth the wait. Each volume is filled with dope Pete Rock, J [...]
Simply put, Logic’s Delay Designer plugin is crazy! Although it can be intimidating at first, open up the plugin, start twisting the knobs, and you’ll be an expert in no time. I throw some delay on my sound or pattern, load up a preset, and tweak to fit my track from there. EXPERIMENT!
Starting this blog has forced me to do something that I should have done a long time ago; search the internet on a weekly basis for new places to download free drum samples. The crazy thing is…I keep finding more! Today, I found 900 drum samples in wav format separated into folders of kicks, snares, [...]
After writing my last post, 374 Old School Video Game Samples, I did some more searching at Sounds/To/Sample and hit the motherload…….I found 27 more FREE sample kit downloads. There’s lots of hip hop, tech, glitch, minimal, fx, and loop samples just sitting there begging you to come download them! What the hell are you [...]
I was scanning another one of my fave music production forums, IDM Forums, and I came across a link to download old school video game samples. The download includes 374 retro sounds and was provided by Haunted House Records and Sounds/To/Sample (Both sites have samples for free download and purchase….so check em out). The original [...]
I love classic drum machines and I just found the motherload! I’ve almost bought kits similar to this, like six different times but I held out and found it for FREE. I’m talking Acetone, Akai, Alesis, Boss, Casio, Kawai, Korg, Linn Drum, Oberheim, 40 different Roland’s, more than 20 Yamaha’s and everything in between. 200 [...]
There’s a great website called SampleSwap where you can search through and download samples that their users have uploaded. Which was super cool but it took FOR-EH-VER (The movie Sandlot anyone????) because there was no way to bulk download all the sounds. Well, there’s a dude over at FutureProducers (another great music production forum to [...]
