Ableton has a 'live' mode where you can record each track while the song is playing. Then once all the line are played in, it gives you a mixer so that you change which tracks are currently playing. For each new line that I play (there's 2 piano, 2 bass, drums, hihats, extra bass and a distorted guitar), it gets saved into a new bank on the mixer and once I've played 8 bars of each I can loop them or cut them out etc! Ableton has a free trial where you can experiment with it :)
Cant remember if i've commented on this before, know i've listened to it several times. Regardless it's absolutely fantastic! Just love the combination of that stellar piano riff and D'n'B, it just works so well. You're really talented.
My ego hopes you've practiced this some times before this recording. I have to go over my stuff repeatedly before i'm close to having it sound right, or "sit" properly in my fingers - still learning to play.
My akai mpk49 wont work on my windows 7 laptop, i think its the drivers, any help??, the keyboard shows up as working properly but it will not work with any software. please comment, or inbox me back
The reason I like this is that I'm also running Ableton Live. I've got 7, about to try 8, and running through an Akai MPD24 midimap (no keys). but this is good stuff, me gusta mucho. I'll be watching this over to learn from someone more experience in Live than I.
This is good music, man... I don't spin or produce liquid because it's not my thing, but I can certainly appreciate what you're doing. Anyone who actually makes music would never disrespect your efforts here. Keep doing your thing!

Msg to all fags. I'll post a tune with in the next week from now called gooner556 drum n bass mixing. this is not good work i can download da programe to make this song. you lot obviously have no tallent or sence of good music
well done - everybody saying anything difference has no clue what he is talking about - seriously, i want to see gooner556 making such a tune - or something better if he thinks this is bad - so come on!
omg i can't believe da pansies in here, u guys r so gay who cares if im harsh. u must be gay, u dont like da music u like a boy in a tank top. have fun wacking off fag
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
suck ur mum derkhead what are u on about dont speak shit i dont hear talent in this tune im sure hes not playing it in live hes just pretending u dunno abour music u mug
First of all mate, that was rubbish. i thought it looked sum batty man suckin meats off a keyboard. also i thought the music sounded like it was from a gay porn film from the 80s. is that where you got the idea from, watchin gay porn, FAG
Second of all even if u don't like it,theres no need to make fun of him so harsh.Like really i hope a gay stripper finds u an gives u a good time =P Dumb bitch.
Constructive Criticism is good but only to an extent
so it wasnt my exact strain of drum n bass(bit nice for me) but i thought the flow was perfect mate and would recommend you keep on going and disregard the negative :D oh and try building a tune when you are in a bad mood or suttin for the lads :D
Can i just add i am in my 3rd year of a BA (Hons) in Urban Music Production. Which basically means i produce and mix drum & bass all day long. Please don't question my judgment. I am also signed to a major label. Sorry mate, but its like you have just got a cracked copy of Ableton Live and done exactly the least you can do with it! just give up lol
So your trying to stereotype all music students? The difference between all music students personality, makes the music different! Also, you must only know about one musso seems as all criticism is good in its own way. you shouldn't lie to someone, telling them they are good when they defiantly are not. As I said mate, give up! (or get lessons)
all im saying is that i think its wack to tell people to stop making music no matter how bad they are, im not saying this guy is the best but i've certainly heard worse, my friends send me fruity loops poop constantly but i always try to say something to help them improve rather than discourage them
this sort of drum & bass makes me sick in my mouth!
its fucking nauseating! who in their right mind would listen to that shit! with the cheesy piano! there is absolutely no production in there at all! there is about 4 layers in the whole shitting song!
Thanks for the suggestions, I do think it sounds a little cluttered, maybe taking some bass out the piano and running some higher frequencies on the drums....good stuff :)
great! i'm lacking of words right now but man i love it when someone gives dnb-tracks something totally new and this was just the thing i needed today! you're my man :D!
I'm diggin' the beats. Dope track. So, it looks like you played melody on the keyboard and your computer looped it for you kind of like a digital delay pedal(but better because it's midi)
What program are you using to do this? I've been looking for a program so that I could do that for a while.
Thanks very much for your kind comments. Yep played the melodies into it at the beginning, each one onto a separate track. Then used ableton live to assigne each track to a fader on my keyboard, the drums bass were already programmed in, so all i had to do was bring the faders up to play with the tune. Hope you like. Reason, Ableton live are the programs you want :)
Me too, though I'm ashamed to admit I've had it for a long long while and I still don't know how to use it. I just use Garageband for the soundback on my mac and use the in-program controlls. :( Don't know how to assign anything. :/ Good luck man.
yeah man sounding good, the piano composition is awesome. Beats are a little flat man and boost some high end on your percs to liven them up a bit keep at it sounding good
yeah! play a real introment! Actually, I think piano's a good intromental choice. not an easy introment to play mind. I thought it was a nice little intromental there chap. keep up the good work. atomicboy1 is a tool.
Cool tune man, nice to hear some new improvements to a genre that doesn't change often. However, you should work some on getting the mix tighter, maybe it could do with some more compression. I would also like some parts that makes the song less repetive.
I basically love drum&bass and I'm a pianist... So you can guess how much I enjoyed this video. :)
Thanks a lot for your comment, it's very cute: I didn't know I got a strong accent even singing, funny to hear! :D But btw, if there's an accent.. it should be a french one. :)
Thankyou for your kind comments. Yes, I too am a pianist and love drum and bass, i'm currently working on a few songs to try and combine the two. I couldn't tell if it was french or italian, forgive me!! You should upload some more videos of you singing, you have a cool voice!! Greetings from Nottingham
