good work, Alan

[@STRANJAH]

@@isotopikpiloniphrit878 Thank you!

I clicked on your link and the price is $32 for the Groove Builders, yet if I go to the website in another window without clicking on your link the price is $32. What's the discount and how do we apply it because clicking on your link doesn't apply it any discount. Thanks

[@STRANJAH]

@@hearmenow909 Hi I believe the price has already been discounted even without my link. But using my sponsored link helps me out because then I will receive an affiliate commission. You're never obliged though!

[@hearmenow909]

@@STRANJAH I saw $90 reduced to $32 but thought that was just a marketing tactic, because I doubt they could sell them for $90. I also thought that by following your link there would be a discount on top of the $32, because $32 seems like the real price it should be at, and an affiliate discount on top of that would have made more sense. Oh well. Thanks.

[@rumblelee4357]

I spent an afternoon studying your video tutorials carefully and I ended up with the most satisfying drum pattern I have ever seen.Thank you STRANJAH!

[@machinemademan]

your enthusiasm keeps me going on those bland days staring at the grid

[@aidanlee8804]

Really nice. I produced around 2008 for a few years. What I’ve noticed, is just how easy it is to produce now, compared to then. Everyone was using the Massive Synth which sounds so dated compared to the VSTs on offer now. Plug-ins are so much better sounding & replicate hardware much better than they did. It’s easier to get better drum samples now too, which used to be incredibly difficult. The thing that is much more difficult now, is making any money/anything original in a genre that is so widespread, compared to the early 2000’s! Drums sound great. There is no way you could make a break this clean yet natural sounding back then, unless you were one of the few producers who would record their own drum samples, lIke Break who was in fact a drummer before a producer!

[@TakeYouToSchool]

Stranjah, don't you think of stopping making more videos now ya hear!

Big ups for all the knowledge you share Alan, you're a gem. 🔥

Wow - seriously great vid. This illustrates why most new dnb sounds exactly the same. :(

[@PhillTHEMusic84]

Very good and selflessly tutorial. Your videos are unique on KZbin when we talking about DnB production.

[@FluxNoise]

I love that video. Beat programing is really the only thing i still struggle with and this kind of content helps alot. Would love to see for Neuro or darker and more agressive kinds of DnB. I always feel that my hats add too much highs to the mix with these genres.

[@neurokinetik64ES]

Super useful. I haven't done a two-step break in a long time because they always turned out like trash when I did. After watching this, I think I can finally make something that isn't trash.

[@frano5957]

Good job Stranjah !

[@praestantia1]

Love Stranjah; he shows you how to do it but always makes it look effortless. Inspiring.

[@AaronViz]

As always helping to level up the production and productivity of music makers.🙏

[@KNURKonesur]

I'd love it if you did a video about the more real-drummer-sample driven artists making drumfunk and similar stuff, like dgoHn, Nic TVG, Macc, Paradox. How to use an old 1970s funk sample and make it fat and juicy!

[@PineappleCrusher21]

This video reminds me why i love your channel so much. Massive video. And extremely helpful about making your drums tighter. Plus that info about changing the hats up 🚀

[@eti32neg.55]

I'm in FLS20 but your tutos and especially this one are highly inspirational ! The danjah is that step by step I love more and more Ableton live...Anyway, thank you familiar Stranjah !

Man - I am so grateful for you Souljah - I've been producing techno for a couple of years and I am so bored with it - I have always loved DnB - my best nights out in the 90s were always DnB nights - I honestly didn't know where to start with producing it though and thought maybe it was beyond me but your channel is 24ct gold and Ive learned so much in just in a couple of days - Thank you so much

[@RONINSHADOWS]

TOP , really good . Thanks for your tips .

would be nice u test the TAL Sampler... very nice old school tool. for Jungle & Drum and Bass . How the Akainizer VST but with better workflow etc...

[@vegohn943]

Thanks mr stranjah for always sharing your knowledge! I have a request: could you show us how to make the og dub sirens like the wheel up siren and the other iconic ones?

[@djembeia]

Awesome work. Getting heaps out of your Chanel thanks for sharing 🤩

[@PhreaSpirit]

Nice and simple way to make things better! One thing, I may be wrong, but that arturia plugin is analog modeled, so I think maybe it's a good idea to reduce the input gain (everything is in red), and compensate with output knob later.

[@seanhochman]

nice one!

[@hotelsinus]

sweet job...

[@Nite85]

i dont make Dnb but this was still super interesting

[@Iirandomizexx]

Bro, honestly you could sell me air. Not that this groove builder doesn't seem incredible along with the rollers kit and the gnarly pack truly being some of the best expenditures of my life but man. Gonna just have to grab that liquid kit too it seems

[@Iirandomizexx]

I emailed you about the liquid kit, I'm a bit confused about the editions. Would you be able to elaborate?

[@painboy8581]

Would love to see an Alix Perez/Monty style deep rolling bassline to go alongside this tutorial

[@rykerdish]

what are the basses you used at the end!? love your teachings!

[@kalletallon8790]

Love this vid man, where can i get these shaker and hi hat samples !!

[@alexwild1435]

This is great, I sometimes struggle to work out exactly what is going on in complex drum patterns with lots of subtle variations. BUT as an antidote to all these modern crispy breaks, how about a tutorial on oldskool hard and dirty drums like early Renegade Hardware and Prototype releases? I love those gnarly 2 step beats on stuff like Alien Girl and Usual Suspects stuff.

[@Beyond-Shadows]

any tips on tech itch drum breaks production, using keyboards

[@deafprof]

Oh yeah...vibes! :D

[@wnrx]

Big up Bro!

[@jamest3336]

So clean. Sample selection really important ~ what are some classic packs

[@STRANJAH]

For one shots the Enei Sample pack from years ago has great one shots. It’s a go to for sure. The Rockwell and lenzman ones were great too. New packs I use include Gassed Up Drums, Decap Drums that Knock, Oliver Power Tools. Those are my golden seal of approved packs.

[@jamest3336]

@@STRANJAH my GUY! Cheers

[@drastikdreamz]

nice square snare yeah

[@MrYellosno]

Hi! Is it also possible to fade drum hits in ableton 9? Couldn't find the option...

[@Lackjakeman]

Was just wondering how you make that subtle wobble bass at the end of the video? Or is it in one of your sample packs? Been dying to find how to make that sort of sound for about a year now!!

[@Iyamcole]

Would loveeeee another take on this video, but more in the roller kinda dubstep vibe. Like Alix Perez dubstep, or like Kercha kinda drum programming. I would LOVE some tips on keeping things interesting in that bpm range an vibe.

[@wh4rxor3mixprodz18]

[@ryanmartinez2876]

I have a question. Is Computer Music's Inferno VST or Vice VST a decent alternative to the Arturia Pre 1973? I love this stuff, thank you STRANJAH.

[@josephhoward9419]

Hello I wonder if anyone can help. I’ve just got an apple MacBook and got ableton 11 free trial. I’ve downloaded a few free sample packs so I have loads of samples I just want a video explaining how to chose a sample chop and re-arrange it, how to structure and how you should arrange a whole tune. Would you do it all in one sitting save it all to the same set or save it in parts and if you save it in parts how you end up pasting it all together? Really cannot figure out ableton, I have no experience with arranging or making tunes.

[@abstracttim7428]

Golden :)

[@alienation3]

Stranjah, where do you listen to DnB? What’s your source for new music?

[@bionikpulse]

Which version of Ableton is this? Great video brother 🤙🏽

[@ZakNicola]

Is it production when its programming? I’d really like to see your advice in a space without software.

[@jacob3463]

Got a suggestion for a new tutorial, turno flappers main bass, trying to recreate but your the man haha!

[@brendancarmona4521]

So I noticed when I used grooves for my kick/snare, it messes with the side chain compression on my bass noises because my bass is being compressed not at the beginning of the sound. Is there a way to keep the bass and percussion synced?

[@MrDisrupta]

Set up a dedicated side chain trigger.

Talking about subtleties while exploiting the laziest and the ugliest "modern" pattern) Techstep is not DnB. Wish people would get back to the roots like your G-Riddim, Dark Tune or Don't Talk. Cool macro equalizer trick! Keep it up! Cheers!
