RE: Dark Digi Dub 02
Thanks SDUB! I'm really trying to get the vibe right. Spooky, dark, dubby. The secret sauce is
a
secret mix technique I'm developing. Shhhhh.
Thanks!
Hey K,
Yeah, I was brought up with dub. My Dad is absolutely mad on the stuff. I grew with him playing
LSP and King Tubby, so I guess it rubbed off a little bit.
If I try and make straight stuff, it just sounds odd because I'm not using real instruments, so I
thought I'd go for the weirder route and fuse it with secret recordings and cheap nasty synths,
TG style. Almost Dark drum 'n' bass sounds.
I see what you mean about the snare. It's very light. I think I was going for a contrast beween
it and the big echo + spring effect. Maybe too much contrast. I'll try pairing it with something
with more bite like you say.
Heh, wobbly bass. I'm pretty happy with it. It's simple, but works ok.
I think I'm going to slowly evolve the background ambience into something a little more sinister,
too. Slowly lower the track into a nasty place.
Thanks for the comments!
