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?

[@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

[@polyrhythm9791]

​@@dylanscott7253Yep. Highlight of my week. 😂

[@mymodularjourney]

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

[@mrtibbs5543]

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

[@some.person]

your teaching is a perfect balance of simplicity and complexity!

[@Battledrone]

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

[@joeconnolly2309]

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

[@patrickmurray8701]

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

[@STRANJAH]

Had to do it justice with the chopped video!

[@hofficial1992]

Drum and bass laboratory. Many thanks for your work!

[@JelleJelleJelle]

These intros are getting better and better!

[@refraktr6223]

the intro was WICKED man 🔥🔥🔥

[@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!

[@Nobody-hc2bo]

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

[@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.

[@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.

[@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!

[@brennanaman1beats27]

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

[@badloop]

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

[@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.

[@GingaSlice]

140! woaw thank u STRANJAH!!

[@soulsurfer-no1bs]

Stranjah your tutorials rule! Thank you so much man!

[@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!

[@paulhodgson8894]

Just happy you name checked Sully! Great tutorial

[@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.

[@forwardever]

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

[@darrenazgard6614]

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

[@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 !

[@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

[@simonbell209]

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

[@julihansen]

Thanks for your time and the quality output 🙂

[@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.

[@19LostInYourEyes80]

You are the Master of Breaks!

[@Hennyfrank123]

Love your channel brodi

[@fionaur5933]

Oooo love this! Helpful for IDM and Breakcore production too

[@STRANJAH]

Glad it was helpful!

[@9t2020]

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

[@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)

[@AlejandroGuerrero]

Man this was a GREAT video. Thanks from Madrid.

[@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.

[@AT-eh2eo]

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

[@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

[@Hyper5nic]

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

[@kilianrooney8430]

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

[@Bragnis]

163 is sick, great job

[@STRANJAH]

thank you

[@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 😂

[@antoniov1546]

This was so informative!!! Thanks dude

[@Gosha1992]

Very useful, thank you.

[@ErgotSound]

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.

[@Benjamin_quellec]

the intro is incredible ;)

[@foodstampz]

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

[@truekasia12]

Rite, i am now obssesed with 140 bpm jungle.

[@DJVILIFY]

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

[@BeastmanG]

Love how interactive your channel is :)

[@STRANJAH]

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

[@sharkpogger5590]

Aphex Twin and The Prodigy vibes) Really cool video!

[@serenitysoundclash]

Really enjoyed that like bro! BOSS MAN

[@tenaibms]

These dances keep getting better and better Also 174 bpm

[@julioxstaticv3782]

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

[@djfrantik]

Fantastic mr Stranjah!!

[@epicgaijin]

140 is just nasty in the best way possible

[@Breakfast_Time-r3c]

This is gold Stranjah, thank you!

[@STRANJAH]

cheers glad you enjoyed it!

[@DavidGillodes]

New Stranjah Video? Liked even before beginning to watch!

[@nicoisbeta]

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

[@ahmedtaktak581]

Super useful! Thanks a lot!

[@squezary]

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

[@dylancourt632]

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

[@pilkb7293]

Best intro in youtube history

[@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!

[@andersingram]

nice ... some things to learn here for sure

[@svefngenglar1]

You smashed the intro

[@gizmord1984]

Another useful brilliant video!

[@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.

[@gabrielvelea5785]

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

[@Tinytunesrec]

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

[@STRANJAH]

That's a unique tempo!

[@TheKidsWantJustice]

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

[@philphilthy5359]

Thanks a lot for all those juicy tutorials mate! Gwaaan

[@Robert_Babicz]

amazing tutorial

[@francesco5482]

thanks man.I appreciated it.Usefull

[@joshjams5913]

dude this helped me so much, thank you

[@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.

[@prismsoundstv]

Absolute legend!

[@xnaut_g]

Thank you Stranjah!

[@ManhattanCamerata]

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

[@dirko2000]

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

[@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)

[@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

[@dabnbong]

i am loving the 163 bmpm

[@roryfunkedub]

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

[@joshgrey7961]

I'll check the class for sure

[@TristanNZ]

Dance moves get better and better

[@tenebrissubterra4596]

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

[@ThisIsAlvinCarrillo]

game changing for me, thanks!

[@sramirez1906]

Great as always!

[@LinardsBerzins]

Looking forward to get the DnB production videos. Cheers

[@BurnBabylon_Selecta]

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

[@WaxDat8800]

Both sound good.
