"... and you get 1992 basically." I don't know if he intended it to be, but that was hilarious

[@ASH-ou4cg]

What a wicked video! This pretty much sold me on wanting to get the TR-09. That 92 rave part brought such a big smile to my face, like I haven't had in a long time.

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

Thank you

[@HowlingMoonCinemas]

Those are some legendary, bad ass machines!

[@MrPiratebrain]

I have the first generation E tribe drum machine that can get some nice beats with a phat analogue kick sound thanks again Paolo such a great talent and you make the beats so fast. I think I over think my music to much.

[@djclovisa5463]

I found your video most helpful big smiles from South Africa.

[@djkingpersia]

hats off to you mate! your definitely doing it and it sounds fresh! keep it coming

[@salo7227]

Wow! Awesome video. Just learned so much in such a short time. Excellent presentation style and high quality production. Great stuff! Subscribed!

[@user812user8]

WOW!

[@stringsnare]

Omg. You broke down house in 2.5 mins hahahaha amazing ty!

[@TheREALwymario]

The rave clip in the beginning sounds a little like what would happen if Crush from C&C: Red Alert was redone with the tone of Tiberian Sun, and it's epic. I'm sure at least a few of you around here understand what I'm talking about.

[@TROGULAR10000]

awesome video further harmonic pointers for house chord progressions would be nice although this deee-lite like one is quite cool

[@ZerHour]

Great video

I heard Jellybean and Steven Dante's The Real Thing. lol Your a GOD!

[@bustercasey3806]

You should make some Latin freestyle stuff with the 727

[@CamiloSoto05]

good

[@Digithalis]

yes, this is my master! :-)

[@genaroayala8100]

I'd like how you ripped level 1 of streets of rage 2.

[@agriosbr]

at 9:18 I remembered Streets of Rage.

[@bigbang4906]

why his eyes are blue black dark circles ?

[@base6441]

track at beginning?who can help?

[@D3cyTH3r]

its the track he makes later in the video...

[@Dayta]

10:25 looks like you are giving away one of the most valued secrets of music production even today and i can only say to the people who are not sure aobut that technique it is exactly done this way :) important part of good music was always a good amount of not knowing what you are doing and just see what happens love it

[@CalamityHillMusic]

Out of all the you techniques, it's the only thing thats work for me.

[@KenFehling]

Reminds me of the Brian Eno method of randomizing drums kzbin.info/www/bejne/h3msmXeGbdWHoac

[@jonasmostert3294]

@@KenFehling This script he uses is actually quite brilliant. Just hit record, let it go on for two minutes, pick what you like and put the parts one after another. done. forever.

Never grow up.

Duncan Cook where’s your budgie gone?

[@brettwalker8712]

4x4 bass drum, other random drums and a stab and you have 1992, thanks for making me smile :)

[@devicefactor2290]

Wow, Paolo, production and sound quality are getting greater with each video. sounds fantastic! you would throw amazing parties as both host and Dj/musician. Bust out the drinks!

[@dboogiewoogieone]

Yup....its official. An old househead's mind is completely blown away!!! The sound that left me dripping with sweat on tons of dance floors back in my clubbin' days is explained and made to look sooooo easy!! Fantastic video

[@JSym92]

And that very sound is even today very much alive and kicking ass! This was a couple months back: /watch?v=i9trRVQvZF8

[@KG88KiteGodMusic]

When he just slapped buttons at 10:17 I died 🤣 Then he pressed play 🔥

[@TRFrench]

So the drums are all Random on the rave except for the bass?? That's amazing and hilarious!! It sounds great!

[@flavioks4864]

TR French I was OH that's simple you just scramble it at random and BOOM there you go that beautiful rave sound.

[@NachtSchreck13]

Brings me back to 91-93 when I was discovering the enchanting world of House and Techno, Raves, Breakbeats/Hardcore/Early Jungle. Dude is definitely Old Skool.

[@DJDigitalJosh]

10:17 Lets just put the rest at Random cause that's how it was done. LOL!

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

Haha, yes :-D I've played with enough DJs back in the day to let you know that's really HOW they were programmed :-D

[@elsongs]

I LOL'd.

[@n-code-r]

even nowadays programming beats and even synths is definitely a good way to start and build up from!!

[@Chewy0424]

Amazing how mashing the buttons randomly could get a half decent beat. Crazy!

[@SuperMegaWoofer3000]

my god that was amazing, fun as hell

[@andrewford80]

This is awesome but I get claustrophobic seeing your hands on that tiny midi controller!

[@TheMourningPalace]

Except Trump

[@erebousde]

He is Italian tho...

[@samazy]

I saw your commentary just after seing him playing synth 😂

[@benmoreau6899]

Millenium who lives in america, so technically American. As we all know, technically correct is the best kind of correct!

[@muco007]

Such a great resource of hardware/music production. I basically check the channel every day now. You've inspired me to hook up my 909 and 727. Keep them coming up!

[@alexanderbarreto3515]

impresionante como suenan esasa cajas ritmicas......y no son samples por lo que veo..que calidad!! por eso amo mis tecldos vintage

[@ranchero75]

A bit of Strings of Life flavor? 👍🏻

[@Michael_Smith-Red_No.5]

I lost my water bottle next to the booth. Anyone have a spare?

[@djstatyk1540]

Hehe, that means two things.

[@dosgos]

Those house beats always had something special. In that first pattern, with the typical bass and hi-hat in such an ultra-straight pattern, I knew something up up with the congos & shakers but never could put my finger on the trick. Thanks for showing us the power of selected precussion swinging outside the main drum patterns. Is that swinging the reason to use the 2 drum machines?

[@kristofersknesis]

hmmmm that is a great point. you couldn't do this on a single drum machine, like tr-8, but if its straight beat is combined with a shuffled beat of another machine... magic happens. gotta try it out later tonight.

[@Niersteentje]

I think you could, provided one machines can generate all of the sounds. Shuffle is not applied to 1/8 notes, only to the 1/16 notes in between, hence the kick nor the open hihat would be affected in this particular beat.

[@bizarrrre]

2:02 Chords are similar to "Strings of life" by Derrick May. Sooo lovely piano

[@roneivilasboas]

With less than 3 octaves. I have been searching tutorials with tips about how create that with this amount of keys. It's hard to find it.

[@iseytheteethsnake6290]

Techno is acid house. In this vid anyway. And no no no (uncle Rodger impresion), you cant just use normal piano and call it house you got to be more specific. That’s Ítalo house not normal Chicago house. They use modified synth, Italians use just electro piano with house beats.

[@-__-_-.-]

4:08 in come party boy

[@AdamTheAd-vanc3d]

909 and 727 have always been a great combo or 707 and 727. The 727 agogos are really nice too. Great video Paulo. You must do a follow up with maybe the 808 and 909 .

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

Yes, thank you, I will do the next one with 808 and 727, the other classic combo ;) In the meantime, you might be interested in watching this one: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kHnQYmyIfNF6eMk

@Nim Chimpsky Please read carefully: "I will do the next one with 808 and 727, the other classic combo ;) In the meantime, you might be interested in watching this one: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kHnQYmyIfNF6eMk

[@paulhouse9970]

Why I hate this guy? Because he can throw down a track in 5 mins to the standard I'd be happy to achieve working on it for ten years.... My passion is rave music from 88 to 93 and this guy could keep that remarkable era alive today

[@maksklinec]

this is very very basic knowledge right here

[@VivaciousNY]

I fell over laughing on how you showed the rave section, But you know what? It was one of the best eras to be alive hearing all that good music. I wouldn't trade it for the music now

[@FatSynthDude]

More like this one, please? Very educational.

[@TuffLittleunit]

1:07 I'll name that tune in ONE. Joe Smooth "Promised Land" :D :D :D

[@thingamajacky]

yep. totally unmistakable heaven.

[@sevrin1965]

Awesome, you are a House music master :-)) more Korg M1 classic house piano sounds please!!!

[@SynthManiaDotCom]

Will do ;)

[@gullyfoyle6354]

Paolo is my particular Maestro Jedi of synths!! ;) It's obvious that you really played that kind of stuff back in the good ol' days...thanks a lot for sharing the tricks.

[@ManicMinorProduction]

I'll give you 50 quid for that one on the left!

[@InternalMind]

One day i'm gonna be a millionaire and im gonna buy ALL those synths and drum machines! YEAHH! *breaks open piggy bank*

[@NayveeMan]

I would color grade, and mic you up with a LAV or another mic of value. These videos content is 110% compared to other videos. Up the video and sound quality and you would kill!

[@Alx-berg]

What's the name of synth sound??? Where can I get it??

[@psiklops71]

reminds me of Rebirth that was a great program

[@DrInsane76]

After hearing the 1th beat i directly thought at Joe Smooth - Promised land. :-D

[@mantax55]

Are the shuffles for both machines or are they independent of each other?

[@TheYTCable]

man... did so many of this,but i rarely used random. that happened more when starting playing with reason 4

[@skaterates95]

Could maybe someone recomend me where I can find some more Techno and House patterns and notes? Thanks a lot. The video is great!

[@corncobjohnsonreal]

I think the shuffle on 3 sounded really neat. Maybe not the exact vibe you were aiming for, but fuck you it was good

[@rh19792]

Hi, many thanks for uploading. I wonder if I can get the conga's sound of tr-727 from other stuff or is this original sound of tr-727? I have tr-8, so I want to integrate these sound to tr-8!

[@awkwardtom]

definately has a certain chemistry albeit quite chaotic...

[@flyobdab7746]

Would love to see you make some New Jack Swing style beats on the SP1200!

[@rolandblocko4229]

Buy the way the first tr-909 tr-727 beat combination is also available as an exact copy as a patch in my Yamaha rs-7000

[@GoodBeat101]

All you need is to break out that W30 and the early 90's flavor will be complete! Massive respect!

[@ransmomebloke1949]

Awesome playing on that house track. Sounded like Derrick May-Strings Of Life

[@nemisysone]

Wow!!! Those House and Techno patterns sounded exactly like the music I loved back in the day! Love the 909/727 combo! Thank you, I learned a lot from this video. BTW, I love that you're using the M-Audio Keystation Mini 32 (which I also use for my DAW)! What cord are you using for it? The one that it comes with is rather short. Thanks again and have a nice day!!!

[@Firing_Order]

*BREAK THE TARGETS*

[@redwallchannel]

The random part sounded cool till the cymbals had to be random too

[@whittalljonathan]

Wow!!! Can anyone tell me what the synth patch is? 😍🙏

[@blizzy78]

"And this is how you program the tom-toms:" *mashes keys* *mashes keys some more*

[@bbssimpson]

Request for trance chords (what type of chords, progression and structure)*****

[@iasciateognisperanza3267]

How much were these instruments back then? Actually how affordable were they? I heard lots about SSL logic board programming. It was like concoctioninbg the formula for some evil spell....

[@kj4ilk]

why is the intro all #s & b's man where is the natural major and minor chord progressions?

[@matthiasvangysel938]

name of the intro song?

[@desktorp]

My favorite thing about the 909 is how the openclose hat sounds affect eachother. It's generally the first thing that is lost from the signature sound when somebody tries to sample it.

[@grunions9648]

The 727 on its own sounds a bit like Sympathy For The Devil, kinda

[@dimitrivanlandschoot2549]

WOw Paola amazing use of the drum machines just great one question:witch software programme you're using for the piano sound and the synh sound?

[@MeineVideokasetten]

Yaaaaaaassss. I was born with these sounds! Thank you for showing us. I'm back in 90s now.

[@hrtbrkd]

is it possible to get an excel worksheet with the timing or something that shows where this beat can be placed in a timeline such as ableton. i keep trying to replicate this and i seem to not get it correctly.

[@mynameistechno]

I dont know how, but watching you setup the machines relaxes me so much.

[@bagdaduk]

doesn't sound like a 90s rave song other than the riff. It's too busy

[@Adibarum]

All I can say is Wow..you really know what you are doing..takes me straight back to Es and all night Raves in the middle of nowhere

[@luchoazulreyes6082]

[@miguelcastorena4293]

sweet vid, thanks for the upload

[@chunya49]

Where I can found this rave stab ?

[@phrank808]

chunya49 i also want to know;-)

[@B1SCOOP]

there's plenty to material to sample from funk or orchestral records

[@statenhal]

seconded..that is a great sounding rave stab..please elaborate!

[@WARDISWARD]

resample your own chords , like in the old days .

[@thelateraledge]

Play a chord with an organ patch sound and sample it, trim the initial start off it so the sample plays later in the recording then add your fx. You can also experiment by sampling the chord at the highest octave so when you trigger the sampled chord at the lower octave range there are more artefacts/grain in your stab than if you had sampled it in the octave that you wish to play it in.

[@szymonwieczorek2667]

Man. After all this years u are still like light in tunnel. Keep working... We need u

[@bartlemy]

Legend is a term often wrongly given to people, however in this case you are rightly to be referred to as a 'legend'.

[@Abc-yv5co]

Or you could just download a cracked Dance EJay programme for free and save on space.

[@tr909love]

I need to fucking buy the real 909 , got the digital one but doesn't sound no way near !

[@ALL_ONE_SUN]

So...that's mohagany roots...thanks for mentioning the 727.

yep tha't how some techno tunes were KAOTIC 11.30min onwards

[@EnuffWITdWOBBLEbass]

You are a master of your craft sir.

[@therachoice4814]

I agree sir

[@Matthewsavant]

I want to know how to make those chord stabs from scratch (not samples) drum patterns are easy

[@adenbuford7396]

What equipment are you using? I see some Roland gear.

[@dianemckimmy5701]

Best if you can do extended 130 BPM 909 Kick Drum

[@puggo1491]

"the chase" (smooth version) from model 500 😉

[@danielolguin2529]

You really know

[@ferranmelero7727]

Wow but torn the volume of all the things you have because the sounds have litle distortion

[@lalskdjfhg]

The house beat reminds me of the beginning of Lifeline by Cece Peniston

[@rubengalvao3112]

3:57 sound just like this kzbin.info/www/bejne/qIPNnGB-oaeKgc0 I think he used the TR 909 as well

[@operotr8423]

I love the sound of the 909 key caps:)

[@Obliviouz666]

OMFG 9:07 sounds so good ! Just make a track with this sound please !! So i can play it in my sets ! (Y)
