All of you must get this question every week or so...and I'm sorry to be another person asking agian... but how do you go about making breakbeats.

Ok, so I just got myself a A3000 and I've got cubase running. I've found myself some hits, etc... but how do you go about making a nice rolling old school jungle beat.

Any input would be great. Do you know any sites that go through the process?

thanks

Cal

As R-Tek said, you should start messing around with loops. For example, you can sample an old Hip Hop loop, cut it up into sections, pitch it up/down, timestretch it, etc., spread it across your board and have fun with it.

Hang in there, it will all come to you!

Cheers,

Rhea

Try it with The Tuareg. It's a virtual phrase sampler that lets you create breakbeats very easily. You can use the built-in sounds, or load up your own. Tuareg does all the hard work for you. It's freeware, by the
same guy who also made HammerHead...
download it here: http://www.brambos.com

why are people constantly discouraging the production of jungle/dnb beats from scratch? chopping up other people's beats is kinda limiting, i find... and i feel cheap about it. granted it takes abit of skill to create your own, but it CAN be done. if you need samples, try my website, got lotsa drums there.

drum&bass is heavily programmed - and I think not overly discouraged, unless resricted to non-variable 2step (although this still sounds phat in most tracks).

Can't say that jungle is ever something that was meant to have programmed beats at the core.

the nature of everything is to be unable to remain the same. better or worse, left or right, change is a constant. embrace it. try & avoid it yer fucked. change is good. beats are good too (both opinion).

subject to change yeah! With out notice?

Stop labelling and start making, some things have a small window of existence, but are the first steps in progession to other things - let us hear the other things, and the changes within them, rather than constantly recreating each genre whenver you feel like it.
