A short tutorial on how producer Burial uses sampling, texture/foley, vocal samples, reese basslines, and wonky grooves. Try or buy Cableguys plugins: www.cableguys.com/products.html
This is gonna sound controversial but I would say this almost out-Burials Burial. His own music kinda gets obsessed with its soundscape a bit much, at least speaking for myself, this extremely short demo captures the aspects from Burial's music that I love which is mostly found in his earlier works.
You haven't looked very far. 'Hollow Ground Productions' does the absolute most S-tier burial dive into his techniques and ways to capture his iconic style
Are you joking or spitting facts because if that’s real that is so cool. It reminds of this producer named qtip from a tribe called quest. He used to make these things called pause tapes. Where chop up a sample that way and record it to tape to create a full loop. Watch the channel digging the greats he explains in better detail.
This is actually such a great demonstration for why burial is so great. Because this is probably one of the closest imitation of burial but it still feels so far away from what burial actually sounds like. Just shows how unique his sound really is.
His first 2 albums are so nostalgic to me, All kinds of memories come flooding back when I hear them. Nothing else was like burial when he first came on the scene, legendary sound
It's what I used to do when I was 15 and only had Audacity to work with. Apparently that unnecessary labour and basic ambience makes one a genius, who knew? This short is described as a good recreation, so why is it that when we look at the beat that was actually created, everything is on at least a 16th, bar some deviation from the startup of the sample itself. I'm starting to develop a real distaste for this idea that production techniques can define a artist. Baking a cake is simple, yet here when we find good cake, we must believe it was individually constructed molecule by molecule, crumb by crumb, by a baking god. Art is in the mind, not the brushstrokes.
He used Sony Sound Forge which, unlike most other audio editors, _DID_ have a form of quantisation (if you wanted it). Any selection could be halved, doubled or "jogged" forwards or back to the beginning or end of the current selection.
That’s exactly what I did when I was younger! Used audacity to create Music from samples! Before that when I was WAY younger! I had 8 different windows from the Media Player opened on Win98 and one played the beat while others had one shots in it which I triggered via Mouseclick on the play Button 😂
Yep did that in 1997 .... all cut and paste on a atari stfm ... with the speaker of the atari as reference ... then imported thru midi ( 1 second is 1 minute transfer ) to a casio fz1 ...
@@webcrawler8244 But that then defeats the purpose. Most DAWs look pretty, and most people watching these videos have a DAW. No need for "visuals" since we've all seen em.
Insane. I actually started lining everything up in an audio editor as well over 20 years ago by necessity. Cool Edit Pro later renamed Adobe Audition. Who would have thought that 20+ years later this would be a sought after technique? Very dope
Yup, ppl try to replicate but they really can’t get close. It’s more than just production. Has a lot to do with mixing as well which is where Kode 9 comes in.
That’s honestly one of the best Burial re-creations I’ve heard, so hard to nail his sound but yours was so on point
THE BEST, and on top of all it's a short ❤

@@aaron4820 It's funny cause this sounds like the most generic future garage.
@@Tony-yc2fyyeah fr, i thought this sounded terrible

Burial is a genius
So we are redefining the word genius nowadays... ey...
Burial sucks
@@mjbarenyiWho do you listen to?
@@HAZARDOUS88 Dolly Parton and GG Allin.
@@mjbarenyi Only one of those is worth listening to and the other threw his shit at people.
Bro didn't use a daw, he just scratched the sounds into the vinyl freehand

Absolutely, 100%! This is more of an "inspired by" than a straight-up recreation 👍
Your breakdowns are unparalleled, keep it up man!
His first 2 albums are so nostalgic to me, All kinds of memories come flooding back when I hear them. Nothing else was like burial when he first came on the scene, legendary sound
Now we have: Future Garage/Coding Music/MusicLab/Downtempo music for Studying, etc
Mannn I remember playing mass effect listening to Untrue on repeat over and over and over. So nostalgic indeed.
Never heard of burial. I’m stoked!
enjoy the ride
Same!
Your case studies are unrivaled
PLEASE RELEASE THIS SONG, it’s so good 🔥
this needs a full video
First time I've heard untrue was literally a whole world opening up for me
You should finish this track! It is so 🔥
I need to hear the full version of that final track!
Burial Mythical Nasty Off the Grid Subbass.
Resurrected my interest.
one of the best artists of all time
you guys seriously need to start uploading the snippets you play at the end because i would seriously listen to this one it’s amazing !!
Greatful for showed how to eq with perc! ❤
I like it. Thanks for the tips!
using an audio editor crazy
it's sorta common among older uk producers, i remember a rusko dubstep tutorial where he makes the whole tune in sony acid

That drum is nasty. Love it.
Sounds very much like Burial indeed! I also think his arrangements are very creative and unique.
i been telling my friends turn off that grid for years. Thanks for firming it up!
this is a perfect demo song
This one was stellar
Awesome short!

This is cool! You should do more videos like this about other producers
burial was my first inspiration. most of my 2013 tracks are heavily burial inspired, especially the song "shrapnel"
hello fellow musician lol, im gonna go and do a deep discography dive on you cuz thats how my curiosity works.
wtf that turned out so good so quick
Yoo this recreation sounds sick
It’s so funny that this is popping up, he has this one song on GTA and I just be vibing
Nice job
Well I know what I'm listening to today!

Ha, thanks!

Yes, literally me. I was dropping DnB and Gabber tracks in 2001 using Audacity.
😂 I am that old.
Love me some burial
Lmao this channel is so class bro wtf
Ooh yea i remember this guy, listened to him like 12 13 yrs ago
Shit, that was a spot on demonstration of his sound
Burial is amazing
I used COOL EDIT PRO 2 for a first few years. No vsts, no samples 😁 those was the days🤣
I still use Audacity but my first few beats were made on a tape recorder 😅
So technically he still used the DAW.
Sounds sick!
Great video, keep 8t going algorithm
Burial is a legend 🩶
Damn, this is very helpful indeed!
"Turn of the Grid"
Final playthrouggh is lookin pretty gridded up my man
Obviously he turned it back on for the visual
EXPOSED
@@webcrawler8244 But that then defeats the purpose. Most DAWs look pretty, and most people watching these videos have a DAW. No need for "visuals" since we've all seen em.
NASTY ! nasty and I love it ! 🥳
Another fire beat :)
legendary producer
Legendary
Never turned off the grid, this I will try
Beautiful
Nvr heard of the guy but this sounds nice
Burial is legendary
Never heard of this guy till today
Finaly! I have found the guy behind the Gym-Lockerroom-wait-music!
yes, I agree - big inspiration
Insane. I actually started lining everything up in an audio editor as well over 20 years ago by necessity. Cool Edit Pro later renamed Adobe Audition. Who would have thought that 20+ years later this would be a sought after technique? Very dope
How do you process a voice to get it sounding as dark and sexy as you did in this video? That was amazing
Love it
Never heard of him, but now I should study him
That's basically the drum loop from Untrue, nice
Genius!
this is exactly how I made my first beat ever with cool edit 20years ago
Nice ! Where did you get the vocal samples ??
Nothing feels like a Burial track.
He is absolutely a founder of future garage. Another brilliant producer is vacant. Check him out if you've not already.
Yup, ppl try to replicate but they really can’t get close. It’s more than just production. Has a lot to do with mixing as well which is where Kode 9 comes in.
Where did you get the sounds from (Vinyl crackle etc)
Where can I get this beat?
An audio editor is a digital audio workstation, lots of people used to work like this b4 modern daws tbh
stunner 🍾🎶
He sampled guns reloading for the hihats
burial is cult! Great choice!
dark and moody burial pallette:
every h&m dressing room:
I love all of these in depth producer breakdowns when in reality 90% haven't got a clue what were doing and just wing. Hardly any thought involved
“A great way to build a moody sonic pallet 😊😌🇬🇧”
The Beat:
👹⚫️💀🧿👁️🗨️🥁🪘🥁🪘▪️◼️
How would you use an audio editor to build a track? You would have to mix the sounds in some way.
thank you.
Haha you guys actually did it
Never heard of burial! Any recs??
Anyone know what he’s using for the texture library? I need something like that
It's ShaperBox 3's NoiseShaper 👍
@@Cableguys nice, might check it out just for the noise librairy 😅
not really a fan of super electronic music but I respect the principles
i used to make beats in sound forge before i discovered daws :P
Ok subscribed
What plugin us shown when youre talking about texture?
It's ShaperBox 3's NoiseShaper 👍
truely the Dark Souls of production
the goat
An Audio Editor, is that a certain software that can be purchased?
Yoooo stop sharing the sauce smfh is nothing sacred
what song is this ?
Just listen to the whole "Untrue" album
what's the name of this sample library?
I and many others I know used pc for a studio did this all smtpe. Before DAW days
Dont forget the video game samples - Especially Metal Gear!
It's not depressingly dystopian. It's warm, it's safe, it's for introverts and it's full of kenopsia. It's a place to be myself.
I'm reminded of this:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Record_Without_a_Cover
Mark Fisher is the man
NOIIIICE!!!!!!!
