Amen Break history video

[topaz]

your asking me ?

no idea man.

i dont know how it works. It explains so at the beginning of all their libraries (which i wouldnt know because i dont own any). Somehow they got the lisence to lisence it with all ther libraries?

[soulkraka]

Zero-G has the legal permission to distribute and lisence all their breaks which is what saved our asses. They are completely legal.

good for them(and us) but I know FOR A FACT that one of the major sample CD companies does not have permission to use the breaks they use. I know because I used to work there.

Who cares anyway...I know I dont give a flying f**k. Like Im gonna let some fat cat like harry fox dictate what I can and cant do artistically

[jdg]

still sounds the same.
first . ticka ticka ticka ticka
then . du kak du-kak
then . bwowowowo wrararar bwowowo wrararar
then . wooowowoowo RARARARARARAR wowowowowo

some really good dnb from the US is peter K. but that was 3yrs ago.


also, i think alot of sample companies actually license these samples, or actually recreate them.

LOL... you can add a ...

after that if your at some place with a really cheesy DJ.

[jdg]

fook, forgot the boom tss tssa tssa boom tak.

i've been feeling the more 'liquid' style of dnb lately anyway and more nu-soul stuff.

i think i'm getting old.. almost too old to be on the internet

Which company?

[Mr. Tunes]

the tb-303 video on that site shows that but its even more interesting, imo

yes i just watched that one and it was fantastic. it was better than the amen video because he did a lot of work in locating clips and stuff. of course one might argue that his view was kind of limited and in a box, but this sort of thing is meant to end up in museums. parts of it are really funny how "square" it is but it's really cool.

interesting how when talking about Rebirth he shows more modern midi controllers(like evolution and behringer knob stations), none of which were around when Rebirth was. i think the Phat.Boy was one of the only ones out then.

I loved it but 2 things bothered me:

He said the TB303 offers a ramp wave and a sine wave, when its a ramp wave and a square wave.

Also, he didnt even mention moog and gave all the credit to the roland guy, as if the TB303 was the first single-osc synth with a hardware sequencer

[Mr. Tunes]

well also why was he reading that part about "How to Use This Manual" as if it had some profound message in it?

why was 1997 such a big year for the tb-303? werent there many other years throughout the 90's that had boatloads of 303 sounds?
i remember the early-mid 90's having tons of that techno-pop stuff and mc hammer etc

Its funny because I read your comments here before watching and as he started expaining the 303 interface it was like this climax when he said "sine wave".....ssssssiiiiiiiinnnnneeeee wwwwwwaaaaaavvvveeee
