10 TIPS FOR BREAKBEAT MASTERY | Jungle, Choppage 140 BPM Ableton Tutorial

[@STRANJAH]

What is your favourite BPM to make music in? Also, help this video get 1000 likes! 😀

[@thomasmalone9813]

160 - 168 has some vibes. especially from the likes of fracture, sam binga, chimpo etc

[@nagruv_bbbb]

I can't had a favorite bpm, like i can't had a favorite genre :O

[@tartoras]

156-164. I'm basic *cryface*

[@Omglolwut]

160

[@JIDEHHIGHELEMENTS]

140 when there's a song and around 160 when it's for some more instrumental , faster tempo makes slice & sound manipulations more close to each other as tempo is faster , less time to analyse what is happenig i the music leads to just listen to it as it would be too much infos to analize in a mesure - this momment when music is too complex to be analyzed in real time ...

[@Ps3keks15]

please do a video on 90s ambient jungle like peshay or ltj bukem

[@Omglolwut]

Love that stuff

[@STRANJAH]

Oooh lots of likes we'll see.

[@Ps3keks15]

STRANJAH yeess :))

[@mikuts1]

Yees pleaseee 😯🤫

[@1disturbedjunglist]

Pascal. Cool manoeuvre 👊

[@RickyTinez]

alright.. that intro made me IMEEEEEDIATELY sub

[@STRANJAH]

Means a lot. Big fan of your channel and your music!

[@foodstampz]

Nice. !! Fan of you both !

[@johncitizen8828]

Ricky Tinez on Stranjah video! Two of the KZbin greats in one place! 👌🔥✌️

[@harshrealm]

Fancy meeting you here. :D

[@benny2k181]

I think the 140bpm version is beautiful! Favourite break has to be the Skull Snaps Break. It sounds so evil.

[@STRANJAH]

Love Skull Snaps break, so phat that snare. And groovey.

[@Ghost_Text]

@@STRANJAH I vaguely remember hearing some tunes with snares that while they arent skull snaps have a reminiscent phatness. Always wondered if it was layering or saturation.

[@oTgNinJAFTW]

@benny2k181 Is that the break from their song It's a New Day?

[@mymodularjourney]

You make the process of designing a rhythm look so effortless. Loving your videos.

[@kaosimian]

Not going to lie, Shift+Drag to timestretch made my jaw-drop. Can't believe that little nugget passed me by all this time!

[@dylanscott7253]

Me 5 seconds ago

[@some.person]

your teaching is a perfect balance of simplicity and complexity!

[@joeconnolly2309]

What an absolute legend , this has been the best production help iv seen out there I’m learning so much 💜massive legend

[@mrtibbs5543]

Stranhah you just go from strength to strength with your videos these vids are gold dust.

[@jakedoran6626]

Mad, I was watching your jungle tutorials yesterday and started making a 140 jungle tune. This channel is too sick, big ups man!

[@STRANJAH]

Cheers Jake, fun tempo to produce in!

[@Battledrone]

I love doing this, in FL Studio, some things are harder in FL, other things are way easier though. Favorite tempo: 145 or 163.75 (Embers Breaks or Jembers)

[@nanob0zo]

This is a great video. Not just for breaks but for any audio based rhythmic and melodic chopping. Thanks again! Also I grabbed your Jungle and Liquid packs - 5 ⭐️ for those!

[@STRANJAH]

Thanks Alex that is a thoguhtful comment you're right can be applied to any time of sample! Thank you for supporting my packs as well!

[@patrickmurray8701]

Even the intro got chopped. Quality information as always. Thanks Stranjah

[@STRANJAH]

Had to do it justice with the chopped video!

[@scott_was_here5642]

Ive been looking for this type of music mane, thanks for making a whole playlist!! 140 jungle is crazy

[@willb1405]

Prefer it slightly more towards 145-150 for that bit of extra speed

[@JurgenKranz]

Used to love jungle and D&B until I dj'd a mental free party in Sheffield in '98 and someone stole ALL my tunes. I was so sad that I couldn't bring myself to buy jungle or D&B for years (that's how gutted I was). Anyway, Stranjah. I make other music these days, but Just wanted to say wheneber i visit your channel I feel inspired to get back to this music. Your defo one of the best people sharing musical knowledge on here, so big ups man and peace!!

[@tylermcneil5239]

So much fun to mess with love reverse hits with a added reverb. Jungle is like playing with Legos to me.

[@hofficial1992]

Drum and bass laboratory. Many thanks for your work!

[@refraktr6223]

the intro was WICKED man 🔥🔥🔥

[@badloop]

I just love the vibing in your video intros! They make my day!

[@jakeniemi6533]

You're a beast, dude. I really want jungle to go more mainstream than ever! It still sounds futuristic and dope after all these years!!

[@catbat06]

you do not want it to go more mainstream. Look what happened to Dubstep. At least right now if you go to a Jungle night anywhere in the world you're likely to hear bangers.

[@forwardever]

Love your videos dude. Nice pace, not too fast and you explain things really well with simple language.

[@rusrus29]

We use to play 1990/91Hardcore in the London clubs at around 140/150 bpm,that transition from 1993-94 was the game changer going into the darker breaks of 155/163 (early Jungle days), i enjoyed the speed up ,so I'm down with both BPM speeds,they work well what you've done. .. Also listen to "2 BAD MICE bomb scare , & hold it down " and not forgetting Champion sound (Great work! and its good to hear that jungle is going back to old sounds and breaks structures)

[@bornshamir7792]

1 like with speed 160-180! I love that riddim you cooked up here. 163 bpm jad me instantly. Great tips I will give them a go. ! Big up! Peace!

[@STRANJAH]

glad u enjoyed!

[@JelleJelleJelle]

These intros are getting better and better!

[@julihansen]

Thanks for your time and the quality output 🙂

[@brennanaman1beats27]

You're the man STRANJAH ..thanks again for another great video

[@AT-eh2eo]

I’m personally love to work at 165! That gets my my hips shaking much more :)

[@noneohone3196]

I actually love stuff at this tempo and 90's flavoured Dnb in general, I feel like you can hear a the crustiness of the breaks much more and definitely more into it than the more clinical, non breakbeat stuff. Some of the newer skee mask stuff would definitely come into this category I feel! Cool videos, always inspiring and something for beginners and more seasoned producers! Keep up the good work!

[@simonbell209]

Best tutorials out! As for BPM, like everything else in life, I prefer variety.

[@skatechatham]

The compilation Speed Limit 140 BPM+ Volume 3 "The Joint" is essential listening for this type of stuff, it was right around this time they were diving into the pitch shifting on the Akai samplers and chopping up a lot of breaks. It's always been a favourite of mine.

[@rahimkisoor7004]

I agree, I own the whole collection of 140bpm, try also the album from A Guy Called Gerald: Essence.

[@davek4605]

Great video. So glad you whacked the bpm up at the end as that was all I kept thinking about how it would sound sped up! Sounded best at 160 to me but good at 140 too.

[@foodstampz]

This was great..just for info..people like Soundmurderer...Venetian snares..pastaman..do this on trackers mostly..a bit different.. Lovely guidance !!

[@soulsurfer-no1bs]

Stranjah your tutorials rule! Thank you so much man!

[@samm7909]

This is exactly the video I was looking for! It just took me 5 years to find it, amazing. Please more vids on these slow UK breaksy numbers, I beg you. Tune sounds v similar to Benton. TOP NOTCH AGAIN STRANJAH.

[@484peachy]

Thank you so much for sharing you’re knowledge, I’ve learned so much in this video, Big Ups!

[@coffeeknuckles4802]

I'm looking forward to trying this kind of thing. Sounds awesome at 140 to me.

[@section23]

Tips on ‘96 style jump up bass creation would be epic

[@vexathebassinjector]

One of the best years!

[@therealseven7seven]

god yes 🔫

[@AdamTheAd-vanc3d]

Funny that I was just thinking to myself . How about Stranjah demystifyies the aphrodite signature bass sound. Or the dj ss harmonically rich 808 style bass. Years ago i actually asked Gavin Aphrodite himself ....guess what ?.... he never really told me lol. Just said some vintage gear hmmmm.

[@Battledrone]

Just that intro must have taken an hour or so to edit. Hats off man!

[@Hyper5nic]

Interesting video and very useful to explore in other DAWs as well! Thanks for sharing! Stay safe and creative!

[@darrenazgard6614]

You are a master Don. I like the 163 best. Thanks

[@Nobody-hc2bo]

immediately added this to my likes because of that intro alone lmao. Amazing

[@tenaibms]

These dances keep getting better and better Also 174 bpm

[@JamesParatiiArts]

wicked Tutorial mighty Stranjah. I think this example better at 140, for the 163 you'd have made it better suited in the construction from the outset. big ups man! sharing the knowledge

[@ManhattanCamerata]

Prefer 163 over 140, but then again I always prefer the oldskool jungle choppage. Great vid!

[@Tinytunesrec]

118 BPM. hardcore breakbeat is smooth and deep at this temp. I like it)

[@STRANJAH]

That's a unique tempo!

[@pilkb7293]

Best intro in youtube history

[@zacharrowood6178]

I'll always be so grateful for the incredible tutorials and help you give, but not as much as this intro

[@zacharrowood6178]

i went from laughing to choking at 1.25x

[@lazermann112]

His intros are absolutely magical

[@Intergalacticjack]

Love the idea with the Spotify playlists mate! Such a good thing for DJ's, Producers and the listeners to have access to. Also, 140bpm sounded sick, 163 needed playing with a little to sound tighter. Big love!

[@tylermcneil5239]

Check out my RaveCore playlist on spotify wont be disappointed.

[@AZ-id1oo]

Hey brother, I heard Amen Fury back in 2013 and had a particular fondness toward it. I had no idea you had such a fun YT channel, I love it !

[@DJVILIFY]

BOH BOH BOH... Working on a few at 160 these days.. but always jumping around.

[@DavidGillodes]

New Stranjah Video? Liked even before beginning to watch!

[@Gosha1992]

Very useful, thank you.

[@paulhodgson8894]

Just happy you name checked Sully! Great tutorial

[@19LostInYourEyes80]

You are the Master of Breaks!

[@fionaur5933]

Oooo love this! Helpful for IDM and Breakcore production too

[@STRANJAH]

Glad it was helpful!

[@julioxstaticv3782]

Thank you for this video, instant sub. The organization and language were so helpful, and the beat was super tight.

[@BeastmanG]

Love how interactive your channel is :)

[@STRANJAH]

Thank you man, and always try my best to answer questions you may have!

[@AlejandroGuerrero]

Man this was a GREAT video. Thanks from Madrid.

[@philphilthy5359]

Thanks a lot for all those juicy tutorials mate! Gwaaan

[@antoniov1546]

This was so informative!!! Thanks dude

[@gabrielvelea5785]

amazing tutorial! thank you so much for sharing your skills and talents with us, mortals

[@TheKidsWantJustice]

Wow awesome video! I'm quite new to the production of jungle and got a lot out of this. Thanks!

[@tenebrissubterra4596]

Remarc is the king of Jungle. He is the king of the Amen, he is the king of the jungle.

[@serenitysoundclash]

Really enjoyed that like bro! BOSS MAN

[@dirko2000]

Thanks! That was very helpful. More old school stuff would be great. And how about a video about combining breaks and drum samples?

[@truekasia12]

Rite, i am now obssesed with 140 bpm jungle.

[@squezary]

both tempos are good in their own respect i think. i vibe with both:)

[@9t2020]

Great tutorial, would love one on the Swamp 81 sound!

[@Bragnis]

163 is sick, great job

[@STRANJAH]

thank you

[@jamesalldridge6367]

163 mate. A good tip is to alter the transient length on the sample under the beats section. Change it to the arrow that points to the right and bring down the length so it sounds snappy. A good example of this is given on the channel Tom Foolery.

[@STRANJAH]

Will have a look at that thanks for the suggestion!

[@jamesalldridge6367]

STRANJAH kzbin.info/www/bejne/gWeyZYyLrJx1d5I @8:45 on the video

[@GingaSlice]

140! woaw thank u STRANJAH!!

[@timstewart8752]

That tune is one of those where you make it slow and airy but DJ’s gonna play it at +6 and that’s cool

[@andersingram]

nice ... some things to learn here for sure

[@gizmord1984]

Another useful brilliant video!

[@kilianrooney8430]

Bro this was so helpful ! I was bopping my head every time that sick break played haha

[@ahmedtaktak581]

Super useful! Thanks a lot!

[@WaxDat8800]

Both sound good.

[@FinestSelecta]

Thank you man you explain things really well

[@FinestSelecta]

163 bpm better IMO

[@FinestSelecta]

Just got your dnb masterclass going to start tomorrow

[@FinestSelecta]

Quick question...would you download a sample pack in rex2 or wav for Ableton? I’m thinking rex2 would be better from what I’ve read online but I’m not sure and the pack is £30 😂

[@epicgaijin]

140 is just nasty in the best way possible

[@BurnBabylon_Selecta]

Great tutorial! Thank you so much for making these videos! Big love!!

[@nicoisbeta]

Amazing video, great for the lesser-known shortcuts like shift+drag

[@roryfunkedub]

I love the fact that almost the entire Special Request debut album is on that playlist.

[@svefngenglar1]

You smashed the intro

[@dylancourt632]

Ooooh yeah I've literally just started a 140 breakbeat piece thank you so much!

[@Benjamin_quellec]

the intro is incredible ;)

[@NRG2]

Sick!! My favorite video yet! 🙏👽

[@NRG2]

Also, I’ve made a couple D&B style beats at 128bpm. As long as you are creative with the high hats you can keep it rolling. Different vibe for sure though.

[@dabnbong]

i am loving the 163 bmpm

[@monat_son]

This is gold Stranjah, thank you!

[@STRANJAH]

cheers glad you enjoyed it!

[@ThisIsAlvinCarrillo]

game changing for me, thanks!

[@Omglolwut]

Lol I always give a thumbs up for the dance

[@STRANJAH]

thank you!

[@francesco5482]

thanks man.I appreciated it.Usefull

[@lekleklekq]

BEST INTRO HAHA

[@STRANJAH]

Glad you like it!

[@joshjams5913]

dude this helped me so much, thank you

[@julienm702]

Stranjah, I love your work. You're a great teacher, and I know what i'm talking about cause so am I. Everything is so clear and perfectly understandable. You give us the the feeling that it's easy anyone can do it. Soooooo inspiring. Thank you thank you thank you, from a junglist massive (1998 I was there). Hey, if you ever need a sax track or sax licks in your production, send me a msg, I'm a pro sax player; It would be an honnor. ;)

[@tenebrissubterra4596]

Champion Sound by Q Project is the pinnacle of that slower jungle sound.

[@djlegend2]

Thanks for another great video, love em!

[@AlegriaDNB]

Really neat and simple vibe for the audio choppage! That's how I do my breaks too, but I still lack experience to make some of the chops sound realistic and not too "artificial". Anyway, thank you as always. Hope you make more videos on choppage! :)

[@joshgrey7961]

I'll check the class for sure

[@prismsoundstv]

Absolute legend!

[@TristanNZ]

Dance moves get better and better
