I always assumed Dom&Roland was two people, one of which named himself after synth hardware. As it turns out, it's one guy who decided to give his hardware extra credentials for the role it played.
Anyone that has not got last refuge of a scoundrel on metalheadz I would highly recommend it ! Dom has never lost the magik touch !!! From his album industry- remember your roots !!!! Never disappointed me ever in 30 years !!!!! Imagination could be one of my personal favourite tracks by him !!!
The ultra technical terms I noticed were Ditty, Boogie Box, Mojo, Bread and Butter, Flammy, Duff Note,Crunched it, Big Action! Now go and make your own DnB ;)... Big upz to Dom releasing great music since 1994!
his music was the introduction to Drum n Bass for me. Still one of the best music producers to date. Strange to see he's such a nice down-to-earth guy and not arrogant at all. Sorry for the bad english and thanks for sharing! Love + Respect!
I've said hello to him at a festival a couple of times and he was quite dismissive :'D. Probably didn't want to be bothered by fan boys like myself haha. I should add, if you ever get the chance, go and see him play a b2b with Klute OMFG.
"I helped make this EQ what it is today, not in the terms of coding or anything..." Doesn't sound so down to earth there. Doesn't even name the EQ to give them free advert. Awesome producer though.
Mrs. Stanfield I've met Dom and Rob in New Orleans back in 99 and i guess because i didn't look like a clownish candy raver and wasn't chewing on a pacifier they both were real cool and friendly. Chilled on a couch drinking beers with Dom and Rob and Dara too! I HAVE THE PICTURES TO PROVE IT.
@@k.c.lejeune6613 Jesus christ I imagined that sudden jump in tone at the end as going from just a friendly casual tone of voice to fucking screaming lmao.
@@ontology3 HAHAHA sorry, i just had to stress that fact! Just taking the piss. But yes, i still have pictures, of course they were taken with a 35mm back in those days.
if you look really closely he's even got his hardrives etc wood paneled. i think he's got a fetish. i bet he sleeps on wood panels in a wood panel room with wood panel pillows
Cheers Dom! It's very inspiring to see that alot of musicproduction comes down to being creative and finding your own ways of getting a good result in the end. Alot of times myself and surely others loose hope when things seem to get to technical and you doubt yourself as a producer. But recording a random sound from the tellie to create a big dark riff sound. Respect :)
Heard the privelege of hearing the man himself drop it at rupture November 2019, last rave I went to, absolute behemoth of a tune, Paradox said that is his favourite Dom tune, that's some acclaim, you're in good company dude
such a fuckin joy. one of the guy who woke me up in the 90s and i cut my teeth on the dance floor to much of Dom & Roland. was a fuckin treat to see him play a few weeks ago in melbourne and seeing him move a crowd of all ages. some people just keep on giving. glad you make some coin from the process and would love to see you play again soon.
Back rewatching this and happy that I made the switch to gear over softsynths. Recording a sample from both a mic'd cabinet and blending with direct out from a tube preamp has so much more of an impact!
The music for the London stage, also my first delve into drum n bass. I haven’t fallen into the genre much itself, but I always catch myself coming back to check out more of his discography
This was a great masterclass. I love his music and what a nice guy. But I also want to say - I think the space jockey in alien was producing drum and bass
Literally the most helpful video I have ever seen for me personally. Fucking unreal!!! I'm sure any techno or drum n bass producer will get so much from this vid. THANK YOU !!!!
Dude is one of my favorite musicians but he does not have much information out there anymore. I found him originally in Midnight Club 3 with his track collab with Hive- Paradrenasite
No matter how i pitch the original break, i cant seem to get it to sound like d+r in this video. Pitch wise i mean. Is he just straight pitching it up or is there some pitch correction going on. Not using reaper, using cubase, spent hours tryin different things bit it just doesn't sounds the same
Um I just want to say ...big up been DnB circa 98* ...and this producer art played ‘Still” big part of music in my life as far. And his sick with the art
I always assumed Dom&Roland was two people, one of which named himself after synth hardware. As it turns out, it's one guy who decided to give his hardware extra credentials for the role it played.
So I should name myself:
Kkwazzawazzakkwaquikkwalaquaza *'? Zzabolazza & Pioneer
So did I. All these years lol
i should be called Tom&Lexicon
Same lol!

Dom's a big fan of wood paneling apparently, desktop on his Mac even.
SpeedballaOne hehe,thats what i was thinking myself. :) '[⊙,.●]'
LOL!
he likes it natural :D
have an old photo of his with a different setup, homemade (in wood obv) built around a studer desk
if you look really closely he's even got his hardrives etc wood paneled. i think he's got a fetish. i bet he sleeps on wood panels in a wood panel room with wood panel pillows
Holy shit, legend in the buildinggggg
Dom & Roland, plainly speaking, you highly impress the right people. You never get boring.
constant trailing off into unexplained tangents = definite genius

Sampling the tv and making a low key dark sounding riff... That's pretty fuckin' Cool ay! Lol ...
Could watch Dom all day long with how he’s explaining, refreshing.
OMFUCKINGOD!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've been waiting for this all my life!!! The legend himself!
pyroghost11 i know im taking notes. Dudes a ledgen #RSPCT #Dom&Roland
Dom is a legend!
2 of my favourite producers in the game. Dom and his handy Roland!
Soundwall vip was my fave drum n bass song ever made!
tuuuuuuuuuuuune!
Imagination VIP also slaps
Paradrenasite (feat. Hive) was my favorite

still my favorite producer.. legendary sound.. as usual
Why this guy makes me think of an engineering professor I had ? he's so chill and efficient
cleanest desktop in the game

Good luck finishing any music lol
@@WillyJunior what do you do and how? and showcase me a multitude of genius works to critique...
I reversed a recording of water dripping into a bucket and sliced it up to be hihats on a track... time and shooting for something is worthwhile!
haha, looked you up and NO UPLOADS... SO SHUT UP!
Dom, this was amazing. Thank you.
This is great - so much better than I thought it'd be (knew it'd be good, still). Dom is a classy genius.
25:00 "it's making me wanna... nod my head" xD I love you man!
nice to see the legend in action. Killer Bullet is still one of my favourite tracks.
specialistsound I still have that vinyl record. Beast track.
I've been a big fan of this guy ever since i first looked up who made some of the songs on the Midnight Club soundtrack
The music for the London stage, also my first delve into drum n bass. I haven’t fallen into the genre much itself, but I always catch myself coming back to check out more of his discography
You can tell Dom's a real musician 16:56
beautiful
Seems like an earlier Version of "Sirens Song" from the latest album "Last Refuge of a Scroundrel"
finally the reason why i love your music so much has all been explained ! legend
Dom looks like the kinda guy i'd hate to get a bollocking from.
:D
Randomest comment ive ever seen.
smiletheory75 true tho
britishskater54 very true indeed
Depth Audio it’s an English term for getting a thorough telling off.
Great watch, very nice fellow. Have been a fan for ages. He should pay attention to his sitting working position...
NOOOICe one of the legend in dnb history!
I've bought a fuck ton of this guys music over the past 20 years. Legendary!
Imagination one of my all time favourites
Man makes me want to jump from Logic to Reaper too... seems so intuitive! Thank you Computer Music, and of course Dom!
please get Calibre next
YES.
No way he'll do it
Waiting for Rob Playford to be featured..he is the original Legend producer
And Pete Parsons.
Nico Sykes
This man is my hero.
Learned a ton. Thanks so much
This fuckin guyyyy. Legend doesn't come close! Thank you Computer Music!
That eventide reach almost 3k£
Disstressor and ensoniq dp on the right side of the screen.
Amazing fx unit
Dom, you are a great guy!
He made my... day? No! He made my life!
28:08 I always set my reefer up when making music too
This was a great masterclass. I love his music and what a nice guy. But I also want to say - I think the space jockey in alien was producing drum and bass
best vid of all dnb musicians.
big fan since 2008.
Dom & Reaper. Legend! I used to use Sonic Foundry Acid back in 2000-2002 for my DnB stuff, Reaper looks to be the modern alternative...
First heard him on Midnight Club (1). So glad I did ^_^
where's part 2?
Did he sample the Tv via an external mic ? Genious
They actually let a camera crew into the psych ward to film Dom?
Literally the most helpful video I have ever seen for me personally. Fucking unreal!!! I'm sure any techno or drum n bass producer will get so much from this vid. THANK YOU !!!!
Never seen Reaper look like, or be able to do this kind of stuff.
5:10 song ID?
An EQ better than Fab's sounds interesting, but sadly google didn't show results for my favorite EQ
What's the bass sound ?(26:35) Distorted 808 kick or a sine test tone?
His album Refuge of A Scoundrel 🌌🎧
The beginning is SO Silent Hill... The beat is very Photek'y. Awesome.
PLEASE SOMEONE HELP! DOES ANYONE KNOW THE TRACK TITLE ? THE DARK INTRO SOUNDS OUT OF THIS WORLD AND REALLY WANT TO HEAR HOW THE FULL TRACK SOUNDS.
@5:30 killer beat
Nice one mate!!!
Would like to grab a pint with this guy. "Imagination" is the best track in dnb history.
put on a party and get him over... he likes a hot chocolate before bed zZz
Imagination over Thunder?
5:30 I haven't heard a gnarly 808 like this in ages since John Rolodex - Rainmaker. Holy shit this is awesome.
One of my fav tunes!
And there was me for 20 years thinking it was two people 😂.
MR TWISTED CITY SOUNDWALL HIMSELF.. what a honor. Kids take notes. And use your IMAGINATION 😅❤💥💥💥💥💥💥💯💯💯💯💯💯
What is the track??? Great piano part!!!
Dude is one of my favorite musicians but he does not have much information out there anymore. I found him originally in Midnight Club 3 with his track collab with Hive- Paradrenasite
When is this little ditty going to be released?
Legend
I only see dom. Where is roland? Lol
theonecalledpotato Dom strangled him and absorbed his soul
He's right you know.
Interview should have been done with Roland alone.
Dom and Reason
Dom doesn't want to release him from his hidden sex dungeon.
Industry one of the best DnB albums ever
thank you for uploading this, very usefull, that helped me a lot
HP filter phase problem/tip. Too many people say to HP everything. When in fact, that causes it's own problems
how can i get my hands on part 2?
Hi Dominic
The speakers looks like E. T
Can’t unsee it from here on out 🤣🤣
@@greedokenobi3855 😁😇
USA END BOSS... JOKING
REALLY WOULD WAIT FOR SOME JUMP ALBUM
GRTZ @BELJUM
How does one go about acquiring a copy of this edition? The CM website is a mess to navigate.
Shawshank? Beautiful work
No matter how i pitch the original break, i cant seem to get it to sound like d+r in this video. Pitch wise i mean.
Is he just straight pitching it up or is there some pitch correction going on.
Not using reaper, using cubase, spent hours tryin different things bit it just doesn't sounds the same
It's more than just pitching. There's eq and compression also.
This gives me mad ideas 💡
Um I just want to say ...big up been DnB circa 98* ...and this producer art played ‘Still” big part of music in my life as far. And his sick with the art
Mind feeders my favourite tune
anyone know the name of the track that starts at 3:09?
"hi I'm Dom & Roland, welcome to my studio...ignore the body parts on the corner..."
would really put you off thanks dom
Piano ripped from the BBC Sherlock Theme? The chord voicings are there
That intro is fucking amazing, learned so much from this. Thankyou !
Yeah, Reaper! It's sick when it comes to audio editing :).
Legend on planet earth
awesome
Anyone heard the Saigon EP? best thing hes done
one of the first he done-did it predate the ed rush stuff?
What's the track?
I'm not sure if he is going to mention it, but while I still remember it... what EQ is he using?
DMG Equilibrium
DMG Equilibrium
Dom & Macbook
What's the name of the tune?
computer music should do tantrum desire. I'd like to see their setup.
What filter was he using? Thanks in advance 🤙🏼

Thank you, Rob. 👍
Hey you ever use the volca sample or volca fm?
1:39 that is exactly what I have just done with my most recent track
