how do i make my kick drums sound better? i have been trying everything: eq, hp filter, compression, adding transient waves in tune with the bassline.... no matter how hard i try, my kicks sound all muddy in the mix, i cannot get that good "thud", nor can i get the kick to blend well with the bass. i usually use 909 samples or other 909-type kicks running out of my ASR-10.

thanks

does it really rain that much? jeez.

see...here, when it rains, Im glad because that means it is snowing in the mountains usually. there..its just wet.

shit. no wonder I cant write dark music. its just to nice here. need a gloomy place. lookout seattle

wow..never thought of that...has anyone ever seen/read any sort of study as to WHY certain types of music comes from certain areas? even modern stuff? how come theres no dope jungle in..say..portland? or...how come british hip hop sucks?  how did Florida become the center of the death metal scene in the 80s and 90s? The West coast and funky breaks?

wow!!! new thread time. see ya at the main page

I was ever-so-slightly over exaggerating about the rain - the western half of the isles gets all the rain and we get less than Tel Aviv or Rome believe it or not ..........still get the perpetual grey skies tho   Musics environmental and sometimes cultural methinks. Mebbe I`ll speak some more when I can be arsed ...which isn`t now.
