oday: glad you're enjoying. dirt is the oldest sample of the bunch and thus i can't remember exactly how i made it. one of my first laptop-only sets back in 1999 or so used manipulations of just that one sample for 30 minutes or so. it actually went over ok. the numbered samples are newer cos i ran out of patience trying to name things!odavy wrote:Right, I've had a listen to the entire lot of these, and the majority are really quite good... I like the way that the washes / ambience effects and loops aren't smothered in reverb like so many other samples in that category are. I also like the instant cut betwqeen different types of sound within a sound, like switching TV channels... it's all very dark-bient, random-core and spook-step (I should write those down...)
A few of my favourites...
AndrewDuke_0019 - has a really nice 'Alien' film quality to it. I thought the sample was going somewhere else with the organ like pad sound but then the bass comes in and turns it on its head. Really atmospheric.
AndrewDuke_0026 - reminds me of the end stages of Silent Hill 3 for playstation 2. Probably where something is burning. I don't know why
AndrewDuke_buzz - once I get this to loop, it'll be a really good glass rubbing sfx, again highly useable.
AndrewDuke_dirt - is this multi-layered? What's that sub bass going on, and is it over the top of some vinyl effect or other?
AndrewDuke_breathshiver - if DJ Shadow had a textile mill, this is what it would sound like.
AndrewDuke_0053 - here, the whole of the pod racer scene in Star Wars is re-inacted by the moomins. Or small mice.
I could go on, but I can't be arsed. Great samples though. Cheers!
take care. andrew
Im downloading the new stuff now.
