How To Make A Friction Track
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ต.ค. 2024
- Brighton drum and bass producer Friction, aka Ed Keeley, exploded onto the scene in the late '90s and has been a mainstay of the genre ever since. Releasing projects on celebrated labels such as True Playaz, Hospital Records and Renegade Hardware and founding his esteemed imprints Shogun Audio and Elevate Records, Keeley is a true drum and bass heavyweight.
We met up with Keeley at his studio so he could take us through the nuts and bolts of building a frenetic D&B tune and the producer came through with some invaluable insights.
nice behind the scenes, happy to see some dnb here!

A video from Benny L would go down a treat if you could make it happen.
Serum or blade runner or voltage would be ever better 😮😮
@@bewhereyouareimhere6425 Seeing any of the Souped up lot do a vid would be quality
IanGC Benny never reveals his secrets😂
Paradox would be great.
Young Saint Laurent a culture vulture and a thermionic kite and a slate dragon compressor all of them boys use them, hope it helps 😊
This is the best production tutorial i have seen in 2 years. 20minutes. Thanks Friction.
This is really insightful and helpful, and friction is very good at explaining about what hes doing and thinking! Makes me want to go and produce something
You're so right, i would happily watch any tutorial he did.
Going from a loop to a full arrangement with something like this would make an awesome tutorial... Never seems to happen anywhere.
Check out Stranjah. He just made two
@@thedeannn Hah, yes, i just watched those last night, and they're great. I commented as such on the first one :)
it’s so cool to watch the process of making a dnb track.. i’m attempting my own tracks/mixes but i don’t have the hang of it yet. this is so inspiring though
Actual drum and bass like this is just so beautiful.. At 10:20 it's just so nice as it is
Friction was my favourite DJ back when I was into DJ'ing.. His set from innovation in the dam in around 07-08 or something has been a favourite of mine for years but I havn't been keeping up, I've missed so many sets.. Some of the mixes and selection on that dam set are just too nice though
Honestly mate that was quality. Big ups
Big up to Friction for showing us some insight. But I wish the producers would do more with the sound design aspect and musicality more than just the arrangement. I think everyone can hear the arrangement pretty well and there are loads of videos with small details like that.
"Some basic white noise... Woulda made it in serum... Filter with a little bit of pitch"
lol man
Love you Friction! What a talent!
This is great to see. I love hospital records and was on a dnb binge yesterday. I was thinking about making some dnb. It was nice to see his process. Thanks guys!
Should check this guys label Shogun Audio if you don't know already ✌🏻
Loving the vibe on this track. Not a big DnB fan...Appreciate this and the process. Thumbs up on this one
Very informative on the amount of layers he uses. I feel that's where I struggle a lot. My stuff always seems hollow and empty with just a few layers and its hard to fill it up.
Also love the way he says CHUNE and licks his thumb when he uses the midi lmao
Love videos like this! Big up Friction.
i saw friction at womb in tokyo in december and it was so solid
Thank you. It was very helpful. Useful for my track production.
Always interesting to see different work flows
So happy to see a dnb tutorial instead of another trap or rap tutorial
i had no idea making edm was that easy!!
LOL not edm
Outstanding and quite informative for this longtime DnB listener.
18:32 "focus on my levels", proceeds to whack fader to max to ensure constant clipping in the red.
Friction is a god tier producer/DJ
Friction!!! Love his tracks
Homie, in Logic you can mark all the tracks you want to go to a bus and just do it to one of them. If they are all marked, it will apply it to them all. Great vid!
Best explained tutorial on dnb so far
Snare is awesome
Love these videos! Very inspiring and it also teaches us the simple approach to making a track can be the most sufficient! DNB DRILL & TECHNO PLZ
this was super inspiring!
Great Video and a legend in the game. Thanks
More like this please!!
наконец то крутой музыкант! почаще таких бы!
Not seen Ed for aaaages! Nice one FACT an good video
Shout out to the Axiom 25! I love it. I've been using it for 6 years.
I got one too❤️
Respect to Friction really cool :)
Nice one friction, good work flow.... Big up Brighton!
Friction a true junglist. Some awesome tips there bud from a highly respected source. Peace.
That tune sounds so familliar
I like it
would be amazing to see someone from Souped up on here in future! Quality video by the way
Nice 💥🥊. At last something descent to watch... I Enjoyed that
This track is so good!!
So just drag some loops into a DAW, got it
More of these please
Ahhh! TH-cam's recommendations sometimes get it right!
love the idea at 17:00 about splitting up the parameters to individual plug ins.
Very interesting! Good job! Thank.👍
im not the biggest fan of dnb but this dude made an awesome track quickly!
this is one of the best videos !
awesome footage.
I LOVE FRICTION
Brilliant video.
Awesome! Thanks!
Come back and do the radio 1 drum and bass show pleeeeease !
Class DnB!
amazing result! :D
Thx fact mag!
Love this
Mate this track is DOPPPPPPPPPPEEEEEE. Did you release it?
Nice one!
I really enjoyed this
BROTHER FINISH THAT TRACK

@@joaopinto3655 i remade it wave.ac/too-vain/dnbff/kNTSTSw
Fifth that
thanks, really nice!
What Mac and DAW is he using please?
nice one bruva
Man that master fader was clipping
Limiter was doing its job lmao
I love my drum and bass
Which DAW does he use?
great tips here from Friction ...he makes it look so simple .... its all down to using sounds you've processed and have worked well in the past, new producers can get lost in sample packs/folders looking for sounds all day, my advice is to make 1 folder of goto sounds you know work which are good quality samples then your gonna spend more creative energy on the melodic elements of your track... get more techno producers to do this series plz Fact...Phase faytale was more EBM/Industrial techno
Superb !
wicked Roller Friction
Why most people dont use any type of drum racks to make the drum tracks? What Am I missing?
Sounds like remember the roller in the beginning
Wicked!
He was one of my fav dj’s but he ain’t nothin on nu balance - the real heads will know what I mean
Damn, those samples sound REALLY nice in comparison to the audio quality/volume of his voice lol
Does anyone have a link to that DLR sample pack hes talking about at 1:10 ?
Really nice and helpful insight here. Thumbs up!
hella good vid.
200hz area lol. DoA massive!
kicks at 200hz, snares at 200hz, hats at 200hz, master 200hz boost, all samples boosted 200hz 5db until clipping, trust me I'm a professional.
This was great. More dnb please
He would be a God if he finished this tune,love those sort of rolling synth melodies which are slightly off tempo,adds some great dynamics to the track 👌
wave.ac/too-vain/dnbff/kNTSTSw
@@DaedalianAbilon any chance you could post it somewhere else because the link is broken?
what is the track and where can i find it?
Against the Clock... ? In 10 min he had a basis of a solid track on the go
How do you know he made that in 10 minutes lol? Theres no timer, might be edited.
It's 100% edited FFS haha
Amazing lil vid. Thanks @FACTmagazine
Well done !!
does anyone know the DLR sample pack he is on about?
not sure from which exact sample pack it is. But DLR has "Specimen X", "Specimen Y" on his sample pack channel called "labsamples"
please release this
Isnt it best to put the bus reverb 100% wet to actually control it via the bus ?
Please, I have a Question. Can you please say to me what type of drum and ritmic is the music " Wadrope" from Hooverphonic
I've been playing drums for a long time and it's deceptive of how hard it is to play drum and bass on full tempo
That's why they use samples. It puts a terrific strain on the session drummers' wrists.
th-cam.com/video/NAUF0fsaFl0/w-d-xo.html@@UFBMusic
Play it at half time then make a sample from it and speed it back up to full time
more dnb!!
So which friction tune is this? I can't find it anywhere on the comments 😀
🔥🔥🔥🔥
can we get a list of the software used please?
hes using apples logic DAW?
What type of subbass It is?
the reese pisses me off because it sounds so good
does anyone know where that DPHS sample is from?
This is actually how most full time producers produce their music. With presets, samples and loops that were created already, either by themselves or others. Thats just how you make music consistently. And I think Friction demonstrates this perfectly. This is how its done folks :)
Don’t talk bollocks and stop projecting. Something you do all the time ≠ most producers/how it’s done.
90% of everyones favourite producers do this. its lazy, uncreative, uninspiring and amateur
Step 1: make it sound like "boom-tick, boom-tickety, boom tick",
Step 2: add "swooosshhhhhhh"
Step 3: see step 1.
You forgot "rumble rumble rumble". And "Ahhhhhh" and "Plinkety Plonk (echo echo)".
Personally I like to add in the "wamp womp wamp wa-wa-wamp womp" with a touch of reverb and a low pass filter.
