Used to own all of these and a lot more on original vinyl. One day a friend of mine asked me to do a rare groove and funk set at his uni. A car had been organized to take me there, but the ride I was supposed to take back couldn't, because the driver was pissed. So I left all the vinyl round my mate's nearby house to collect later. Anyway, when it was over there my mate had the bright idea of taking my tunes around a coke dealer's house, because the guy had a top of the range super expensive hi fi. So later on, when I went back to collect my shit, it had mysteriously disappeared. Now, even though he denied it, I knew the dealer had nicked my records and I wasn't so much scared of him, but he was always flanked by a coterie of jacked dudes, as big as me, (I'm 6 '4), who also carried weapons. He also had some extremely scary Eastern European connects, who would put me in the ground. I had to have recompense though. So for his dumb mistake of trusting this shady guy, I took all of my mates synths, a JV1080, Emu Morpheus, Emu e6400, Yamaha AN1X and a G3 Mac computer. Seems pricey, but so was my vinyl. At that time, this shit was hard to come by. Anyway, that was how I came by my first home studio set up. And now I find myself here, getting reminded of those times. Don't feel too sorry for my mate though. Later on that year, his parents gifted him with a 250k studio as a tax write off on a property deal. Some mad shit went on there too, but that's a whole other story...
Good Ableton tuts btw. After years of first using using Logic and Cubase, then using Fl studio, for it's deep automation and arguably the best piano roll, then editing and mixing in Reaper, (my present workflow) I thought I'd finally get round to getting into Ableton. All my mates have raved about it for years, but I remained needlessly contrarian. Interesting to see how you're using these tools to achieve an aesthetic that's similar to mine, but taking a different approach because of the difference in platforms. Some advantages to Ableton, some advantages to my own approach. Will be definitely be pulling the trigger and buying Ableton next week on the basis of some of the stuff I've seen you and others do with it. Was getting a bit bored with my present workflow, so a change is as good as a rest and all that. Ableton really is pretty impressive on the sampling and sampling manipulation front. Can see a lot of possibilities with the examples you've given. Keep up the good work.
drug dealers wouldn't have somebody killed and risk destroying their whole empire & prison time, over a bag of vinyl records. jokes on you dude, you should have just gone round and got your records back.
@@kierz-io The joke is hardly on me. I got a basic studio out of it. Better than getting seriously injured in my book. Seriously though, do you think that I would have prospered if I'd carefully explained to the guy, what his rational options were and because of that I could walk off with my tunes? Listen kid, life ain't like a Tarantino movie. The only way to get what you want off people like that is escalating violence, against people who are perfectly prepared to be irrational over dumb shit. All of that with me on my own against a whole posse. I didn't fancy my chances. Sometimes you have to take the L, even if it is bullshit. What was good about it, is that this time I actually ended up better off.
I've been watching your videos for a while and just wanted to say thanks! I'd wanted to get into making jungle and chopping breaks for years but had no idea where to start, and I've learned so much from watching your stuff. I really appreciate how you show your whole creative process and have fun just playing around! It's much easier to learn from than just showing a polished, finished product, and it's really inspiring to just get stuck in and have fun making music. Cheers!
Think i owe you a thanks too man a your videos are fun to watch and you relay the information clearly, i do like your approach of getting stuck in and see where it leads to plus you can always trust someone who wants to teach about breakbeats and has a beer whilst doing it.
on the first amen transient, i actually dont like keeping those fuzzy hat parts because they offset the entire break to become late (unless you put that blip at the end of the loop, but then you hear it when stopping the loop unless you mute it early) edit: hotpants crop shouldnt have had the intiial transient moved ahead, snare was offset because the entire thing was offset, but now the timing is off (unless you want to get some sloppy looping that ray keith did in the mid 90s)
heh, i'm not through the amen disaster, but it's very simple, set the right bpm for the source sample what i like about FL when dealing with drumloops is you simply specify how many bars the loop is & it auto fits, i'm not sure ableton has a one click option for times when you dont know the source bpm
How accurate should I be with transients? Also I clocked that you have the best ableton break videos on the internet actually; I take back any picky comments.
Cool. I don't use computers, so later I didn't really know what was going on, but you were right , it's great to hear the classics and where they come from.
man love ur videos keep em up have u done one where its just u doing like a song already made as a live show per say if im making any since at all any ways cheers and be safe and do u have music in iTunes
Hi ned, this channel seems right up street so will be subscribing, :) Anyway really struggling with the sub bass that alot of the oldskool hardcore 1991-1993 tracks had, do you have any videos covering sub bass over breaks?

Same here mate, Ned kills it and shows us the secrets of the dark arts.

Thanks for the comments people.

@Alex Walker Had to double check to make sure I didn't post this and forget
Gives great colour to breaks.
Every time I watch one of your videos I end up playing around in Live for a couple of hours. Thanks.
You created a monster! Breakenstein
Incredible
underrated
Nick Skywalker u mean breakula!

Solid Humour aswell :'-) cheers dude, some well presented and invaluable content there.
Wow. awesome, man 🤙🏼
Hey Ned.. Amazing stuff you've put out! Can you do a tutorial on how to make skee mask dolan tours drum programming kinda stuff
heh, i'm not through the amen disaster, but it's very simple, set the right bpm for the source sample
what i like about FL when dealing with drumloops is you simply specify how many bars the loop is & it auto fits, i'm not sure ableton has a one click option for times when you dont know the source bpm
Not new to DAW’s but am new to ableton , your channel is great dude. Ill be joining your patreon later today .... thx man 😍
Ableton all dayyy
7 people are not coming
Absolute quality
Any copyright issues with using such mutated breaks in a track?
No
How accurate should I be with transients? Also I clocked that you have the best ableton break videos on the internet actually; I take back any picky comments.
Woah that’s great, but the jungle breaks site is unavailable FUuUuUuUkkkkk
you're hilarious! love the channel
Cool. I don't use computers, so later I didn't really know what was going on, but you were right , it's great to hear the classics and where they come from.
www.junglebreaks.co.uk/ is not working now, unfortunatelly
You’re right! Must have been taken down recently. Try phatdrumloops.com
@@NedRush Thanks a lot!
its peak ali
man love ur videos keep em up have u done one where its just u doing like a song already made as a live show per say if im making any since at all any ways cheers and be safe and do u have music in iTunes
cool
I mutated break with a midiverb and mackie overdrive
Mad break scientist
11:09 Sounds something that Liam Howlett would use.
First channel I hit the bell button, for crack's sake!!! :)
triple post, but this is also why grid snapping in the sample editor isnt good for accoustic drum cutting
Anything else? ;)
oh! he hit the nail on the head! That is the question on my mind.
I love you
I know
New British phrase of let’s crop it.
yeah junglebreaks is gone gladly I got all the breaks yaers ago from there :P
Noice
Fucking excellent.
Everyone's favourite wife beater.... Crying! (Like Tina I imagine)
Hi ned, this channel seems right up street so will be subscribing, :) Anyway really struggling with the sub bass that alot of the oldskool hardcore 1991-1993 tracks had, do you have any videos covering sub bass over breaks?
I haven’t but you just need a sine wave and you’re good to good.
is there a reason why you make warping so complicated?
How have I made it complicated?
if you already cropped your one bar loop, just stretch the end to the end of bar one. one time click and drag
I see.
Or, just click the set button.
right :) anyway, thx for your videos and devices! always enjoying them! and i love your 90ies nostalgia :) i feel with you
I now only want to watch your videos if you're only wearing your pants whilst making them. Thanks in advance
ur a legend
Tess says will you be our friend?
