Also, to mimic a live drummer, make your drums inexcusably loud (especially the cymbals), play way too many drum fills/rolls and complain about how much equipment you have to carry while expecting accolades for doing so...
Or use a choke group and save having to delete them manually. Plus you can still get overlap if you just delete competing hats, whereas choked hats would kill the sustain of an open hat.
Moving the notes off grid is called, "nudging". Make sure you nudge each note separately. This is because a live drummer will be off a bit, but not exactly the same amount every time. Sometimes they may even be perfect. Nudging is not just about getting off grid, it's about humanizing. One way to do it is place everything perfectly on grid and highlight and nudge each hit separately. Or you could just play it like you did the open hi.
i literally just made a boom bap beat after watching this video, if you wanna listen to how it sounds im going to drop my soundcloud link after i finish mixing and mastering it with vocals
Just fell on here and DAMN I'm sooooo stoked for my session tonight after these Gems. I've been playing music for the last 16 years and videos like this help me simplify my Productions. With that I say thank you sooooo much! Stay Creative
Wow!! That’s amazing. I love hearing when I’ve inspired someone. I’m grateful for that, more than anything!! 💯 don’t ever stop, even when things look bad. Keep going. And work HARD. 💪🏾
100th comment... And I have to say... Thanks so much... In a world saturated with trap beats this is a breath of fresh air.. Thanks again! Keep that golden age sound alive!!
Ayyyyee!!! Thanks man. Definitely going to keep the golden era alive. That’s what I came up on, that’s what I learned from. Thanks for watching man. 🙏🏽💯
@@theycallmeheat I didn't see you talk about tempo much I guess it really doesn't matter if you're gonna lay it out like that? I just started and I too would like to keep the golden age sound alive. Appreciate the videos and I'm definitely gonna watch more
No problem my man. Yep, I created this just to show HOW to create boom bap. So you can use these techniques with ANY daw or sampler, you may use. Thanks for watching. I greatly appreciate that. 💯
@@theycallmeheat of course! I actually just discovered your channel, do you have any tips/videos on how you chop up your samples? its so smooth here and your newest video!
Yeah I do have a video on how I chop my samples. (Link below) glad you found the channel man. Be sure to turn on notifications. th-cam.com/video/cpjo1lMp8s8/w-d-xo.html
TheyCallMeHeat - The Beat Majors will do! Thank you so much again for sending the link to the video. It’s great and I really appreciate it🙏🏼 can’t wait to see what you have in store!
This is why I love your channel man; you really break shit down and teach. Sample reminds me of a Jake One type beat; and I've been lowkey stuck in beat block mode, and it's because of trap drums.
🙌🏾🙏🏽 thank you fam!! I’m more than grateful for the love. Yeah, I could hear Jake One chopping that joint up.. To lift that beat block, try to listen to other styles of music. It will def help, listen to moonchild, oddisee, kev brown, phony ppl. There’s sooo many more out there for you. 💯
One of the best to the point “boom bap drum” videos....swing is the major deal because old school hip hop samples a lot of old records that had live drummers who were in the zone or “groove” ...it’s that push and pull that on and off the grid that causes your to nod or dance....
Unlike 99% of the tutorialists i see on youtube, you actually know what the fuck you're on about. I can tell you live hip hop and that says a lot, enough said. Ive been uncreative for about 4 months and this has given me hope, thank you so much !

I like boom bap hip hop and want to start creating, i work on maschine and just wanted to ask when you lay down drum pattern where does the kick and snare go. For example i set the tempo at 85 bpm so the kick is at 1 and the snare is is at 1.2, then then the other kick is at 1.3 and snare is at 1.4, then the other kick is at 2. And so on. Is that the correct way?
Hey heat....just wanna say thanks for sharing the knowledge you have for music production....been learning how to make beats for just like 6 months now but;luckily coz I watch your videos almost everyday;I have gone too far already..keep up with videos like this
I loved this video so much! Yesterday I used fruity slicer for the first time and made a boom bap beat very similar to this, watching this felt like watching myself lol. Subbed.
Appreciate that fam!! 💯 definitely lots of videos for you to go through. & I drop new videos every week as well. Thanks for watching, be sure to subscribe & turn all notifications on. Don’t want you to miss out!! 🙏🏽
Bro super weird i have that same guitar poster hanging on the wall in my studio and as the ad for this video was playing i looked over at it and read a few lines and then i click in the video and saw it on your wall. AWESOME
I'd change the snare to something a little fuller and add some swing to the drums. And everybody nowadays thinks boom bap is all about the chill vibe. As a rapper, I'm looking for that raw wu tang or premier type beats. That chill stuff is for bed time
I normally produce trap metal, horrocore type stuff but sometimes ill drop some lofi or boom bap. That live drummer thing i didnt even think about thanks
Just keep practicing and trying different ways of sampling. It will come to you, took me a while to get it when I first started as well. But watching videos & trying to sample EVERYTHING I could, I got it.
@@theycallmeheat first time i tried sample i didnt know where to start lol....i had to watch videos on here and keep practice. but im getting better tho..by the way thanks for sharing this video i appreciate it..
Great channel, knowledge, keep it simple... I like it, I got subscribed, thanks man, I've been watching a lot of channels, and your one of the most producers who help me the most, and go straight threw the point... Blessing bro, great job!

I prefer the “natural” swing. Actual drummers are NEVER on time. When you listen to artists like the roots, they never quantized there drums because it was played live. But to each his own. 💯 thanks for watching fam.
I absolutely agree. I simply don't like it when it's overdone and every hit is completely off. Also, placing the snare a little later instead of earlier could be a nice twist. Anyway, nice video and keep going :D
If you want to mimic a live drumer than delete a closed hihat every time you hit the open hihat
thanks for the tip..........

Transitioning from trap to boom bap and this video was a life saver ! Thanks Heat
thats whats up!! you can still make Trap ,but now you have 2 genres in your arsenal. you're welcome Virgile 💯
Turn your quantize off on everything, that’s a live drummer...
Exactly!! 💪🏾
J dilla style
some DAWs have the humanize option...
Subjektive Noise they do, but a computer can’t make the mistakes a “human” makes. So it’s impossible for it to “humanize” anything.

I have not musical note.
From the sequência time clock, when you say "to push snares back" you mean "front", right? Because, looking thru time measurement, you're dragging them to hit a little bit earlier by the song time cursor.
But you reffers to time position based on what did not was read by the DAW cursor yet. A very common way to think.
Not wrong, but it may sound confuse for some.
But you intelligenly did show how and what you really mean.
So cool.
