Don’t know but will you one day be doing a feedback review on your fans tracks?

[@STRANJAH]

@@ATFsinners1994 Yes!

[@ATFsinners1994]

@@STRANJAH let’s go!

[@paulburkhart2619]

J Majik "Arabian Nights"

[@brunogoncalves9747]

Would be amazing if you did a Nebula's "Chords of Sorrow" drum pattern!

[@Benchaku27]

"If you love drum and bass and dance music..." No mate, we love you banging out better free content than some are charging a fee for! Absolute legend! 💯

[@STRANJAH]

lol thanks man fair point!

[@DEDE-mt3yq]

Absolutely ! Thanks mate ! Couldnt have said it better

[@kurakczek]

One of my fav amen break tunes isn't really even in the jungle/dnb canon, it's Squarepusher's "Port Rhombus", just reminded me of that massive nostalgia trip! :D

[@apoplexiamusic]

yeah Port Rhombus is such a masterpiece. like how to make a break a truly expressive instrument, not to mention the sick jazzy bassline on top!

[@patrickblakethesaint]

Squarepusher, in general, is something I strive to sound something like.

[@mrowen5055]

Thanks for the recommendation

[@drindy5166]

Amen to that ! ;)

[@Smokahful]

my fav track evah

[@tomenward4120]

Its a real treat that a seasoned jungle/dnb producer is smashing out helpful vids like this. I hope everyone's listening carefully I wanna see a jungle resurgence! big up ya self mate

[@STRANJAH]

Thanks man!

[@azagedon]

dnb and breaks is coming back!!

[@chrismilesorg]

Jungle and breakbeat hardcore is seeing a massive resurgence. Hence why these videos are getting so much attention.

[@damianclarke8056]

A resurgence?? Drum n bass jungle has always been big

[@dreddiknight]

Skillz... ✊🏿

[@agustadnb1701]

This guy is the gift that keeps on giving 🙌🏻

[@ScramTek]

This feels like some secret, master-key knowledge that I don't have clearance to have access to. Like, any minute now, Babylon gonna smash down my front door and bust in my yard. This is like the Junglist Ark of the Convenant and we're being blessed to be given an audience!

[@STRANJAH]

lol well said

[@wizards001]

You get it, holy days. I dive deep into these breaks on a wave editor and love seeing the variation and hearing it at the same time

[@markkirschenmann3925]

Very informative, thanks so much for posting!

[@ElginChris]

Stranja, your videos are a gift. Thank you.

[@FathomSoundProAudio]

This breakdown was the thing I needed to help me get into this genre! Amen to that!

[@drewtoolive3612]

Thank you homie!!!! Great content!!

[@craigchaotic]

This is absolutely unreal tutorial. I’m just getting into this after after not touching any production in years. You’ve just helped kick me in a huge way

[@yaseenhussein5809]

I've learned , had so much fun and a big smile on my face from this video. never before have I had that 🥰

[@markbony6727]

Bro....you always bring the goods, I only started a project yesterday and decided to use an amen drum pattern for the first time....I love your tutorials.

[@Flux_One]

I was at a rave, possibly Helter Skelter, in 95, and remember when Babylon Splash was played. It was rewound about 10 times. Amazing memories

[@STRANJAH]

What a great memory to have!

[@ryan-majorbreakz5676]

It was produced by Undercover Agent aka Splash. I won't mention his name but the man was a true visionary. Dubplate Circles, Oh Gosh and many more. I remember hearing it on dubplate via Pirate radio and my Jamo's were rumbling - happy memories.

[@willflo7486]

Jeeeeezus @STRANJAH this is the biggest piece of drum production secrets hands down. Absolute legend! :D

[@geraldgoodiii6993]

Looping the first 1/4 note splice of the last bar 🔥.. gives this floating feel with the bass drum stomping on the down beat .. always loved that

[@secretairece175]

Nice job mate. You show Love for Jungle. See next Vidz.

[@madtho]

So cool. I’ve been playing with the Amen break just for fun, but with lame results, this help is just what I needed ❤

[@NAM999DnB]

This video is pure gold for anyone who loves DnB and Jungle. Thanks.

[@1mrjingo1]

Just started my first track chopping up the amen a few days ago and was wondering about techniques and this pops up! Thanks

[@russellleo5182]

Big up from Burlington my friend. I remember when all these records originally dropped in the warehouses. Thanks again for all your contributions to the beloved scene.

[@mark-nesterov]

You blowed my mind) huge thanks🙏

[@benmochrie7832]

I’ve not watched this before….. it’s sick! You really do love the Jungle! Maximum respect Brother! 👊👊👊

[@jeikobu_jeikobu]

[@smallylad]

Best tutorials on KZbin. Absolutely brilliant every time ✌️

[@wootle]

UK here. Grew up in West London and remember when jungle arrived like a bulldozer. The first 10 seconds really bought the memories back. Subbed to you, fantastic presentation. I'd love to learn how to create this stuff.

the nostalgia in this video is unreal, took me back almost 30 years 🙌🏾

[@jbsoundjb643]

Hello STRANJAH. Thank you for this little tutorial. I think you must be the only one on the internet to have done this work on the AMEN BREAK. Big respect STRANJAH

[@La_sagne]

[@achoangelov6840]

Man, this is great video! BigUp Stranjah !

[@MFTKR]

love deep blues used of Blowfly Sesame Street break to make helicopter, love dimensions uk, great new classic. another great video.

[@NsD3001]

Great video, easily one of the best in regards to getting some of those classic jungle patterns going on. Nice..

[@djraw8633]

Loving these break tutorials, big lips stranjah 😤🙏🏻

[@jontshyza]

Just found your channel and so glad I happened upon it. Subscribed!

[@anssiuimonen3328]

Gotta say that this vid came spot on, especially Splash Babylon as I have been listening to it on repeat during the past two weeks. Legend that just cant get old no matter what. Big up

[@user-hc5tv6yk9t]

the dillinja remix of that baaangs

[@JamesParatiiArts]

very cool! love your work my friend x

[@TehSyneS]

I just covered a bit of this topic in a class for a student, love your videos man, great points raised and just in general great vibes! Bigup!

[@ldmdesign5610]

Using the audio like that made for a much better viewing experience

[@skeennah1927]

This was one of the most amazing videos I have ever watched on youtube. 7 out of the 10 tracks deconstructed, I own the vinyl, bought between 93-94, some of the best years of my life raving to Jungle. This video was perfectly done, and the breaks deconstructed, and it really gave me chance to see the DNA, of the tracks I loved soo much. After this video I had to subscribe to you, also I love when you play the final deconstruction, yoy show Lives screen at angle, nice touch.

[@STRANJAH]

Amazing to hear that. Glad u appreciate the work. Bigup

[@sirstu.oftheshire]

bro knows the bizness and no mistakin

[@snarlysausage4604]

absolute classic breaks awesome stuff!

[@chrismilesorg]

Great content as always. Amen, brother.

[@buddhapalmtv6878]

Yo! Stankface was activated through this WHOLE vid! I love chopping breaks on my MPC, switching that shit on right now. Keep up the great work bro. 1

[@asgdrums]

AWESOME video thanks bruvvv

[@blkrbbt]

Jeezus... I needed this video... This is more DAW oriented, but I'm going to recreate this whole video to really learn the Amen... then I think I can program this into the TR8s as well to create my own Amens... then sample this to the sp404 to resample into a regular pattern.... Damn, I got to get to work on this!

[@MrzodiacBE]

awesome tutorial , amen!

[@DoubleDouble85]

Great video 💯

[@pd_7773]

This is really great! Thank you!

[@norddrummer]

Thank you. This was really inspiring. ❤

[@KoolaidManWalker]

Ive been making Rap Beats for 10 Years, Ive decided to get into Drum & Bass and you've made it so EASY! Great Job, also, you should definitely show us how to recreate the Old School patterns with Midi.

[@albert341]

I’m not a producer or anything, just a long time jungle fan but may I say this video is absolutely wonderful, FWIW my favourite amen/ baseline combo is MTS - Hard Disk

[@StellarWorks2023]

Great video man, you really know your stuff. Cheers for the sample pack 👊🏾

[@felcocb]

I love Acid Rain - big up soldier ~~~ jah bless

[@timparker5197]

Oh my word! Hearing all those iconic tracks being made sent shivers down my spine. You are a legend mate. Thank you so much for sharing this, it has been extremely educational.

[@STRANJAH]

Welcome mate!

[@sanjayaajaye6970]

Pure Enlightenment!!!

[@krammulla2620]

Great video! Ableton looks amazing for chopping

[@tangoteflon1050]

Man i love you!!Your output is extremely helpful for me and it comes right in time.Btw you exactly recreated my favorite jungle tune amen patterns^^

[@damonomusic]

phenom vid... but the comments at the end of each example has laughing everytime! Thoroughly enjoyed:)

[@destitutemusic]

You are the Don! Thank you

[@curlyroller2301]

my god, man. every time I think I love jungle and the amen break as much as is possible, I somehow love it more! This video is so great! Choppage is this this mad thing, where when you actually know how it is done, it doesn't take away any of it's charm or magic: it only gets more magical.

[@STRANJAH]

I agree you can go down a path of endless possibilities

[@faulderrr]

This tutorial is awesome! I will be revisiting this video a lot. Thanks Stanjah, you rock!

[@STRANJAH]

Glad it was helpful!

[@zonteeq]

Insane, thank you!

[@DjPrimeberry]

Excellent tutorial! 🙏🏽

[@rossdangerossdrysdale945]

Hey Dude. Im just going to take the time to say thank you so much for sharing all your knowledge. I think im up to date with your packs 🤣 which have been a great help. I think i strayed from the path for a while and you have got me right back on track man. Thanks Stranjah much love 😊😊😊😊

[@STRANJAH]

Amazing to hear that Ross! Keep at it!

[@djghostmode]

this is huge. Jungle producers have to know this piece of audio front to back, inside and out.

[@skeennah1927]

strong facts!

[@badlefthook624]

Photek would spend a solid month chopping and programming breaks for some of his tracks....and he was the king of chopping breaks in the 90s

[@countorringtonludlow5211]

More tutorials like this! Where you show the real real raw business! Really prefer these with a quick product plug vs reviews of things sent to reviewers for free in exchange for a video. Great job reworking these and thanks for using audio!

[@STRANJAH]

Your welcome. Agree with the video content strategy! Much more fulfilling

[@user-wv7et6tl7d]

Man, You're the best.

[@JakeLDS]

Wow, I was watching you're videos when you had just a couple thousand subs. Love that you're just smashing it now.

[@STRANJAH]

Thanks man!

[@metarotta]

really nicely done video, also awesome you showcased the akaizer in use here as well
