Making of The Prodigy's "Funky Shit" by Canyon Hill

This is my remake of The Prodigy's "Funky Shit", a great banger that was released back in 1997 on their best-selling album "The Fat of the Land". The track is fully recreated in Ableton Live and contains no elements from the original recording.

[@MarcusHelius]

OH MY GOD THAT'S THE FUNKY SHIT!

Incredible! Blown away by the FM lead. Could have sworn it was sync. Amazing. And all the rest. Big respect!

[@djkrptdnb]

That synth work is very respectable 🙏🏻

OMG...I remember watching The Prodigy on the Red Square in 1997...

Can you make the same of NO GOOD??? PLEASE!!! TEACH US HOW THIS ONE WAS MADE!! THANK YOU😎🙏

[@bruellbart2380]

Oh damn, PLEEEAAASE!!!

[@Beattieboi]

“Attention all personnel!” was sampled from the James Bond film ‘Diamonds Are Forever’.

[@djembaouthoukholujahwe2179]

I adore this video, so glad you're continuing where Jim Pavloff left off with more remakes! I enjoy the format a ton and am really looking forward to more!

[@CanyonHill]

Djemba Outhoukholujahwe Thank you! ‘Out Of Space’ is coming up next :)

@@CanyonHill - Please can you do No Good, I'm half way there but struggling with the beat! Love your work!

[@hermeslord]

Incredible.. my mind just went off like a kiloton bomb.. i remember the 90s when I heard this first.. I still hear it now.. my kids have picked up this on their daily drive to the school.. fat of the land is used as a propellant to get to school on time..

[@CanyonHill]

Thank you, mate! The Fat Of The Land and all The Prodigy's albums of the 90s are above time. They'll never get old.

[@Zergei]

I can see Leroy dancing to this in my head haha Also thank you for putting "attention all personnel" in there, I wish that was in the album release!

[@ericlorback6751]

HOW THE FUCK!!!?????? thats so awesome! I cant believe how you just made that keyboard sound! its like EXACT, the first one, the screaming one, thats my favorite sound in the song

I have been djing for 26yrs and trying to produce for a few years, and listen to such a varied selection of music, but I really wish I could hear all the little bits that these great artists seemto be able to! Great work, thanks.

Man, you're totally incredible.

[@k0rd3z44]

Великолепно!!!

[@brokenpoolhall]

One of my favourite tunes, from one of my favourite albums. It has a “heist vibe” to it. New to synthesis, and I was wondering, the bassline, is that an FM sound? And if so, can it be done on operator?

[@Vi_Ta_Lee]

respect !

[@kckgr79]

good job bro!

[@EvgeniyGen]

Да как ты это делаешь?! Ты воссоздаешь их звуки один в один.

[@kckgr79]

the "attention" sample was taken from an old James Bond movie

[@jons8607]

Wow, excellent job on making this tune! Very close to the original.

[@NM-cq6ri]

Wicked

[@Scienide1995_Deep_and_Dub]

Lead synth is also a sample. According to the video by Eightmusicupsidedown called The Prodigy missing samples. It appears at 15:22 timestep in that video.

[@CanyonHill]

Scienide 1995 Liam used Clavia Nord Lead for this synth. The sound you hear in that video is actually just a sampled note from Nord Lead.

[@mrdanhowell]

Fucking awesome

[@breakzfanatic]

Amazing work, hats off!! You should have used "The Shining" sample in the end instead since you also used the "Attention all personnel" sample ;)

[@Lickerjavi]

Liam se habría ahorrado mucho tiempo si hubiera visto este video antes

[@Defy1983]

Круто👍

[@ArtisticAutisticandAiling]

Is there a link for your version as an MP3 please? I would love to burn your versions to cassette with Jim Pavloff's versions and The Prodigy's originals. :) Love recording to cassettes with Ableton. :D

[@theaylesburycyclist8756]

Where did you get the "attention all personnel" sample from? I can remember hearing this on an alarm system, back in the mid 90s...

[@skrillboy5163]

О, блин, так ты тоже русский! Сорян, токо щас заметил, и джим павлов, и тот что делал в фл ремэйки они тоже русские, это говорит о том, что у нас самые преданные фанаты продиджи!🤘

Слушаю с 94-го года лол

[@anthonydavis3949]

You know, before I heard that Beastie Boys sample, I thought it was a British guy saying “Oh my god that’s the funky s**t!”

[@rammstein1985234]

Stupid question, but just wondering why you put the samples to mono? Just makes it sound better?

[@CanyonHill]

rammstein1985234 it makes it sound similar to the original :)

[@rammstein1985234]

Ahh ok thank you.

[@drugaruka]

Canyon Hill and it sounds harder

[@idimiditavicorpzone5954]

Most people think automatically that mono is worse than stereo, no one wants grandma's mono portable radio etc. But music producers deeper into sound know that mono is its own thing, it is not worse than stereo in any way. It's got its own sound that is very useful in combination with other things that are used in stereo.

[@drugaruka]

@@idimiditavicorpzone5954 when people mix their kick in stereo, that's when you know who you're dealing with

[@libertyisparamount1443]

were proficient at ableton before watching jim pavlov or did you learn most of what you know from him?

[@laofunk]

Респект, мужик, это очень круто! Как сделал пэд в аутро?

[@CanyonHill]

Спасибо! Это сэмпл из Sheila Chandra - "Bhajan", накрученная в Serum'е сирена и прочие мелочи.

[@sakhadbd]

Круто! А сама продиджи как делали? тоже на компе или как

[@CanyonHill]

Синты железные были, а аранжировка на компе писалась. В 1995 году уже был Cubase.
