Beatmaking in six minutes

[@dwrabauke]

Still returning to watch this in 07/2022 because it is one of the best beatmaking videos on YT.

[@regularchickens]

Forever a classic. One of the most inspirational music-making videos on YT.

[@newtonlkh]

I just noticed that I took a deep deep breath after watching (and listening to) this GREAT WORK

[@maayaa77]

Still insane even 7 years later :)

[@maxLeifermann]

I think I've watched this a million times, and I still love it.

[@willie941]

That's very inspiring...this kind of video makes me love my Electribes more...and more...

[@thatguyrocked]

kicking ass, as always..you are indeed an artist!

[@electro808kat]

Great demo! I have the electribe & I love this sequencer, with its big analogue sound!

[@barrysj74]

This is the kind of video I was looking for. I was thinking of getting one of these and you really showed me what this thing can do. I had an old MK1 and I loved it. I just seen one of these at the pawn shop and I think I will go back and get it now. Thanks!!!

[@Popper818]

I am very happy to say that I own one of these bad boys. Definitely one of the best things I've owned, once you learn your way around the machine, you can do so much with it, it still surprises me. :)

[@gruffski]

This is just absolutly mindblowing! Great job!!

[@Beatprisoner]

This video was the definite reason why i bought a EMX-1 last weekend. I just recognized that you made the second demosong included with the EMX-1. Great!

[@BryanJones1]

I think it really depends on what you want. The MX has a synth built in and all preprogrammed drum parts (I think). The SX doesn't have a synth, has fewer drum parts preloaded, but is sample based so you can load your own drum parts and your own longer samples for melody, etc.

[@michaelbauers8800]

The arpeggiator modifier control or controls were a great idea.

[@lovashunyadi115]

professional Musician, professional hardware. respect.

[@kopimiil]

seriously tough stuff .... huge props !!!

[@extrasuperpowr]

This is pretty sick. I've been looking into one of these for a while. i think it's about time i get one.

[@oxiigen]

Wow! Amazing!! I can't wait for it!! Bravo Denkitribe!!

[@TProfileG]

I have one of these and they are awesome. The Valves are what get the fat sounds. You need to use them loads as its easy to forget the functions. But once you get into the functions you can do almost anything with them. I plugged it into a £5k Yamaha Clarinova and it just sounded awesome.

[@nowthatsatattoo]

AWESOME WORK! This EMX is sooo cool!

[@youknowwhoyouare8]

AWESOME!!!!! im ordering me on in two weeks im glad you showed how they work bro.... ive worked with fruity loops, but were going into a live sound,, im working with a radias and soon a nord lead 2x,, this drum machine is going to help alot

[@gfunkonthecheesetree]

Was going to sell mine since I hardly use it but watching this makes me want to keep it. Such an interesting device

[@omanafire]

I want one of these sooooooooo bad! Awesome work dude.

[@CallusDnb]

Sweet, youv got some sick toys; and the skills to go with them.

[@SticksAandstonesBozo]

@thebadbrown You can do any time signature. Your not restricted to anything with these. They are unreal and super fun little boxes. I had one and I sold it and now im getting another I miss it so much, and I have an Open Labs Miko Custom so I surely dont need it.

[@attr1b]

just what i need to see .. im thinking about getting 1 of those electribes not sure which 1 to get yet tho .. either the emx or the esx .. but that video is a very good demo of how things work ... nice 1

[@betex_]

A true lesson how to programming the KORG Electribe EMX! Thanks, Master!!!

[@alexthorndike]

Just got my EMX-1 yesterday...first piece of hardware...hope i can get up to your standard one day ;) nice work denkitribe!!!

[@christinethi5631]

I'm also new at this - I'm trying to figure out how I would, -in the same pattern- change the key to make a complete song... how do we do this??? I know I should practice more, I'm done now with looking at my instruments and waiting for inspiration - I will just go for it! you're encouraging!

[@smiuw]

man this video makes me wanna buy one!!! great job!

[@javedjoe]

even when you get used to the hardware, it would need brain to make music like this.. love it!!

[@mynmyself]

@oldcomforter well, is a "synth".. it has oscilators and filters and egs... but is more a workstation/groovebox with a very limited synth (nearly 0 modulation capabilities... not enough lfos nor egs...)

[@Djgyz]

that is amazing dude i so want one of these machines they look ace

[@planetmusicsamos]

I really cant wait to put my hands on it!!!!!Very nice track!!!

[@Beatprisoner]

@filthybrown It's mentioned somewhere in the EMX manual.

[@busted276]

couldnt stop watching... really nice!:D

[@MrSidMan]

@moreausylvain I agree, I pref analog over digi, but you still get a little analog warmth with those vacuum tubes. I own one of these, and it's pretty awesome sounding, depending what kind of tube you put in it.

[@babylondreamer]

That was surprisingly good!

[@edgehog76]

I have one of theese, gifted used, (by my brother who learned it a few but then got bored) But seeing this video, the potential of instrument is great.... I wanted to use it as a drum machine to accompaign me while learning to play guitar, but I think now I will dedicate some time to learn to play this to!

[@Clawf1ng3r]

Wicked tune! Makes me wanna buy an emx right away ;). Gotta love the snare starting at 0:55. Nice job sir!

[@sharpazn]

IMPRESSIVE! I LOVED IT!

[@djretro83]

Very very nice. I love listening to it. :-)

[@oldskooldancemusic1]

good work, fancied getting one of these and the red one, could have a good laugh with those

[@JonBlizzle2]

Wowww truly a master of the machine!

[@dacawone]

Hate to beat a dead horse here, but that is freaking amazing! I had to watch the whole thing. Keep em coming

[@zodawg0079]

They are about $500.00 in the US. Most top end music stores carry them. I've only played around with a demo model (I play guitar up until now) and they are fun. I would say that pretty much anyone could use it, but you have to really learn the intricacies of the product to make some stellar music. But then again, isn't that half the fun?

[@slackdave]

Nice skills!! I'm thinking of getting something like this. My kit is currently a 707 606 and a 303 clone. I guess I need something that can do melodies etc, and replace the dull 707 sounds every now and then. The Electribe stuff is appealing since it has its own sequencer.

[@fottafazee]

this is pretty sick, i jst got one and LOVE it!!!

[@KaslarProductions]

i like how korg adopted the vintage roland style knobs like the ones found on the tb-303

[@richnewburn]

Wow. Thats fantastic.

[@cyganmarek]

Impressive! nice beat! how is the synthesizer quality , can you get same sounds like korg r3?

[@frimpit]

beautiful work!

[@Insan3Lik3]

n1 if i buy the KORG EMX, must i have any other things?

[@SpaceSamuraiCowboy]

Thats awesome i just bought an r3 synth where do u learn to use the electribe? im just learning to mess around with the synth

[@Clawf1ng3r]

I'm pretty sure there are music stores in England, too. The EMX costs 555€ in Germany, that's ~470 pounds. Any maybe you've heard of a website called "Ebay", you can get the EMX there, too.

[@Beatprisoner]

Well done! Very impressive.

[@Gaiacarra]

So the big numbered buttons on top are the drum machine, and the small numbered buttons on the bottom are the sequencer, and the knobs control cut-off, pitch, ADSR, that sort of thing?

[@ChrisScribs]

holy crap.. I want one sooooooo bad...

[@Elektrycznyswiat]

Yeahhh ...KORG..., Love this instrument ....

[@Beatprisoner]

@filthybrown Maybe you got me wrong. I meant that the second demo song delivered with the EMX-1 has been made by Denkitribe

[@warriorofhonour]

really nice vid! But what I don't get, is how to fit it into the rest of my studio equipment? I mean I use logic 9 and 2 mid controllers and a mixer! How can i possibly use it with the equip i have already got now?

[@spinviperus]

Thinking about getting one of these electribes to go with my sp 808ex. but still thinking about it. nIce video!!

[@jpd7]

Which reminds me, the official stores don't ship to Canada... I wonder if they sell this in Hong Kong... Since that's where I live but I'm just in Canada for other stuff.

[@vegeta897]

Awesome... Love vids like this.

[@billygoatUK]

FINALLY someone who really knows how to use all the features, deffo the best EMX vid yet, you work fast and build a groove up from scratch. I haven't touched my EMX for over a year and you've made me want to go and dig it out of the cupboard. Thanks man. BTW, is it just me or is there no way to select a drum part that you want to edit, without it sounding (and ummuting) as you press it?

[@dightmin]

@danfromphoenix when you chop and create your own melodies and patterns, absolutely

[@tombellmont]

i bow down to you Denkitribe!!!

[@ChuChusChannel]

@2coofoyoo Word! Electronic music is so underappreciated, I don't know if it's good or bad, really. It kind of makes it special.

[@MadelnMachines]

Are the drums really tweakable or not much? Better to get a machinedrum or jomox?

[@bamfasaurusrex]

Intosia, you have frequency masking, whichever sound of the same frequency is loudest, that is the only one you will hear because our brains respond to whichever has the most audio information given to us- try using the different filters given to you and you should be able to get rid of the masking and have a nice blend

[@krakatoa47]

@crowdawg7768 what do you mean by "preloaded?" as far far as synthesis goes, an oscillator waveform is as simple as a sound can get.

[@mrtvi46]

EMX is a synthesizer, ESX is a sampler. The first generates all the sounds by itself, the latter you need to record the sounds from somewhere. Get both ;D

[@FretFreak02]

You've got some serious skills dude.

[@d3p3ch3mod3]

I have the Korg esx-1 and full version of FL Studio 7. The Korg is obviously more fun for jamming and stuff and just feels more like a real instrument but it's so much easier to compose entire songs with FL Studio. You can have your playlist window and all your synths open at the same time, I could go on. In terms of composing it's kind of an apples oranges comparison.. Not to mention the massive cost difference. Obviously the Korg is my baby though, which is going to suck if the board ever goes

[@04tm34l3]

@bigghettobooty ... idk, i learned it in like a month, i found it easyer to look at some of the drum lines in the premaid beats to get an idea of how to put them together

[@timorgano]

Haha, I like it. Nah, this is much better than any software program imho.

[@giotto4germany]

this was perfect! i want one for christmas ! :)

[@LouigiVerona]

for a software user hardware handling may seem tricky for a while. just keep following the manual step by step - take your time.

[@ifaber68]

Whooo Very Nice! :D

[@dragonskinstudio]

good stuff ...i love the electribes

[@TheBazardunet]

nice, even the style isnt quite what i favor. i had an older gen. green Korg sampler and an rm1x...great fun those machines :)

[@sram993]

That was inspirational

[@artillerylab]

Woah! just got mine . . . diggin what happens @ 2:15 & again @ 3:45, inspiring. . . cheers!

[@PonySixfinger]

that's awesome! that would be fantastic at a festival

[@toffman555]

awesome.....respect.....

[@MrMaxadax]

just learned alot!

[@OLDMANBADGER]

nice one had me rockin in my chair

[@Floyd1138]

amazing, tell me this mate, when u first made ur bass sound then hit the ribbon.... a bassline appeared, is that a preset pattern? or an appegio or is ribbon triggering an effect??

[@PELENN]

yo namba one papa...best performance i've ever seen..

[@graywolf2004ru]

Good demonstration. Arigato!

[@Insan3Lik3]

thx for the infos :)

[@feralferret]

Excellent.

[@ivanden]

Amazing job!... really.

[@johnmontague1964]

Denkitribe I beg to differ....this is QUALITY! I want one.

[@ilovemusic0023]

sweeet man, im buying one soon!!!

[@airwaveindehouse]

wow great i love this

[@monx]

man. What a god machine, korg should pay you for posting this. ::buys electribe::

[@mao-tse-tung]

cool for everybody who wants a good introduction to what this machine can make easy.

[@tallteej]

Epic !!!

[@dingus987]

Can you hook a midi keyboard up to that to use? instead of using the pads at the bottom?
