This Is How You Will Become A Groove Expert

[@dr.feather4860]

I always learn so much from your rythmic singing…thank you so much!

[@AnalogKitchen]

Hahahaha, thank you. The verdict is still out on that one though…

[@py_a_thon]

This is definitely an interesting point, because tbh...novices when using a DAW often forget to use some variability even if only a few milliseconds in order to get that sort of natural drummer sound. The worlds best drummers and other musicians can definitely play like robots...they choose not to though. On purpose. Jimi Hendrix(and the people he worked with) is perhaps one of the best examples. His timing, tempo, rhythm, groove, use of reverse delay and many other techniques was absolutely amazing. He used time itself like a separate sine wave or how in EDM you would perhaps use LFO modulations of envelopes, tempo, and filters (or effects). If you see even his studio recordings beatmapped, the tempo wbbs and flows up and down subtly, yet is always in the pocket with the drums and other instruments. He was probably a difficult guitarist to play along with, yet with a good drummer: he was legendary

[@AnalogKitchen]

They're in the pocket! Hahaha

Ghost notes is what MAKES groove! I love listening to hand percussion like tabla, conga, cajon, etc and hearing how they just keep that groove going even if you can't HEAR it exactly🙌🔥✌️ This video was incredible! That midi integration with the controller🔥

[@py_a_thon]

To this day, some of the best drummers I have ever heard...can literally play buckets, pots and pans, and whatever else; and still create something that sounds amazing. PVC pipes and flip flops still sound awesome too if you cut the pipes to the correct lengths for perfect notes and chords. Sometimes I play the body of an acoustic guitar like a hand drum, and it can sound kinda awesome, especially if mic'd up.

[@AnalogKitchen]

Thank you @els1f even sometimes after years of listening, you can still discover new grooves you didn't think were there at first @py_a_thon send over some of those grooves to me, I'd love to stick em on the black box

[@cons8501]

Just discovered this channel, love the vibe here, just what I needed. Thx!

[@AnalogKitchen]

Welcome aboard and do stay for much more!

[@totallypixelated]

Little bit of envelope attack time on your synth or sample VCAs helps things lean back off the grid in a strict 16th quantised situation.

[@AnalogKitchen]

And adds another element of control too! A slightly more natural sounding groove as envelopes feel more authentic imho! Thanks for your comment!

[@slim_pkns]

Thanks for another great video. I know we all appreciate you sharing all the ingredients in the secret sauce! Cheers.

[@AnalogKitchen]

Thanks Mickey! And for your contributions in our Discord chat sessions after the vids

[@roajah]

Easy one of the most valuable channels on youtube. Knowledge and experience 🥹

[@AnalogKitchen]

Wow, thanks!

[@FUNKINETIK]

Berry Gordy of Motown records said 'It's what's in the groove that counts'. Yep AK you've definitely got the groove. Thanks for another head nodding informative enjoyable video. P E A C E : )

[@AnalogKitchen]

And thank you for noddin yer head! I’ll keep up the groove brother! Stay tuned for more!

[@44MV]

use full as always Lucien Tx man

[@AnalogKitchen]

Thanks Mikey!

[@aaronjenkins385]

Great video thanks. Good to see you use the DFAM. Have you looked into getting the DFAM thing yet ( or some other companion module that enables MIDI control, reset etc)? It adds a lot of additional functionality to the DFAM 👍

[@AnalogKitchen]

Yes I have as a matter a fact. There's much I can do from the RK006, but I will investigate!

[@steveturner1815]

can also recommend the DFAM THING, it integrates beautifully@@AnalogKitchen

[@h-dawg969]

Literally my favourite dawless ‘tuber by far. Love every vid you post. Was waiting for a screaming tb03 line to talk with that dfam. ;)

[@AnalogKitchen]

Thanks! Noted, screaming 303 added to the list

[@h-dawg969]

@@AnalogKitchen I’ve been thinking of a DFAM since watching the vid. I’m thinking of selling some of the stuff I own already and replacing with one now. The way it works and sounds just seems so Techno! ;)

[@KarlosHenaoDj]

Great, your videos are very good but we would like them to have subtitles, Spanish translation to learn more wisdom, thank you

[@AnalogKitchen]

I will look into that! Thanks!

[@KarlosHenaoDj]

@@AnalogKitchen What mixer do you use, which one do you recommend?

[@piotrsawicki2821]

Any chance for subtiles?

[@AnalogKitchen]

Oh, for sure! Subtitles are in the works. We want everyone to be able to enjoy our videos, even if they can't hear us over their loud snacking. :p (Just click CC under the vid)

[@SolKonstrukt]

Much love Bruv..

[@AnalogKitchen]

Back at ya!

[@quantum_ocean]

Do you find the DFAM is often over-powering the mix?

[@AnalogKitchen]

It sure can do overpower the mix... But you have to be cautious with it!

[@JM-co6rf]

Hard to hear you! Turn down the background music :)

[@AnalogKitchen]

Noted!

[@andrewverran3498]

Are you talking about note probability ? Cheers m8.😊

[@AnalogKitchen]

Not probability as much. More on how to look at the grid and placing notes strategically!

[@jevogroni4829]

i did not understand anything you said. but i know a lot of these machines

[@AnalogKitchen]

Just ask. I’ll tell you what you’d wanna know

[@jevogroni4829]

thanks, i'll get back to it@@AnalogKitchen

[@red00herring]

lol ythis brother making me feel like i am doing someting special with the same gear i own is the true gist of the video, right?

[@AnalogKitchen]

So where are your videos?

[@DavidProM]

Sorry to say but it is hard to follow you with the rythm in the background

[@AnalogKitchen]

Noted. I hear that on some systems it's harder to hear, yes
