korg emx breakcore _-borg69-_

[Strangeryann]

This 1s real good, N1 !

[Strangeryann]

Reminds me of the Flashbulb quite a bit. The beat's a bit hard 2 follow sumtymz but its funky as I like it.

[wertzx]

you should post a link for a download.

[MooseHeadMoosic]

Dear god, those wobbles and amen break. What the hell man, why?

[swarm69]

@MooseHeadMoosic why not?

[MooseHeadMoosic]

@swarm69 it sounds absolutely dreadful, dude. Put up some structures in your drums and stop using the same LFO frequency throughout the WHOLE GOD DAMN SONG.

[Xetrev13]

fucking cool! wish i had the money and dedication to get this kind of equipment and make shit like this. i guess ill just stick to guitars..

[hoiszhdfoifh22]

@Xetrev13 Get renoise. Seriously. It's free, it's what Venetian Snares uses, it's breakcore magic. It's pretty much the only program you'll need for yonks. And it's piss easy to use. I find it strange that people think they need to buy their way into electronic music, think they need to spend £400 on some fucking box just so they can make some beats.

[Xetrev13]

@hoiszhdfoifh22 thanks for the advice. its much appreciated! ill check it out.

[hoiszhdfoifh22]

@Xetrev13 No worries, brother :)

[swarm69]

@hoiszhdfoifh22 love that program

[cazmo222]

@hoiszhdfoifh22 i understand where you're coming from, but I think different people like different things. I am more of a hardware guy, as I like to make the songs hands on. However, I can completely understand the advantages of software, and I have began to stick a bit of that in mine now.

[tziirkq]

@cazmo222

If you like to have physical stuff to tweak, get some MIDI gear, like an MPC or something.

[rlouve]

hard like a gum-fucker :)

[elARTEdelPOOP]

this was ... explicit!

[ItsSoulFlys]

Okay, this is amazing. I wanna try this but I have no idea how to get started. I tried to make some breakcore before but it wasn't that good. 1:06, what are you doing there ? putting an fx on the drums/bass ? I'd like to have some information, I'm not very expirianced with the emx because I just bought it. thanks in advance. :D (sorry for my crappy english ;])

[swarm69]

@ItsSoulFlys grain shifter in the effects section i have it set to all the drums but not the bass part the other effects i us alot are short delay and ring mod ..ifn you chain them together it can get very nice and messy :D but thats all your fx used up for the entire track then :(

[swarm69]

@ItsSoulFlys its a grain shifter effect on all the drum parts

i dont know what to tell you realy have a few snares and different pitches a couple of bass drums and then its all down to programing in the patterns im afraid man

but if you realy want to make breakcore the emx is not what you want its a fun piece of kit but if breakcore is your thing get renoise on your computer

[dhmacko91]

yeah mate, its sick

hard to make songs on the emx?

[swarm69]

@dhmacko91 not realy but it does take a bit of time

[dhmacko91]

awh man!

this is fucking inane!

love ittt

[swarm69]

@dhmacko91 glad you liked it

[ceteksretek]

Grain Shifter & Decimator + Compressor are very creative tools. You did it \o/

[swarm69]

@ceteksretek  dont forget ring mod ;)

[swarm69]

@trannyballs about £400 but i bought it from japan so i had to mod the power pack to accept the uk voltage

[ThroughTheseLights]

Reminds me of something Enter shikari would do lol

[swarm69]

@ThroughTheseLights aww thats a shame shikari are realy bad :(

[cazmo222]

Wow. This video has officially sold me the EMX :D Thanks mate!

[GwarsuxFtw]

damn!!!

[FunWithCrayons2]

very Nice work. sounds Sick! =)

[ZombiePopshot]

sick man!

[bxlfr3]

you cauht a really good groove there. Maybe some more intricate melodies in there you're good to go

[swarm69]

hehe yea man but that takes too long on the emx .. i need a pc to lay that shit down :)

[elecrtibemx]

yeah man. rock that shit!!!!

[DjembeNmbabway]

well played sir! well played indeed. out of interest, is the EMX intuitive to learn?

[swarm69]

@DjembeNmbabway errm sorta ...its not hard its just messing about but its not realy a fine production tool or at least im not that good with it yet :)

[TaharuReitan]

O:

My face at 0:56.

Much better than I was expecting.

Big ups to you, good sir.

[swarm69]

hehe thank you

[dinichio]

pain to my ears?!

[swarm69]

[junkHC]

you're sick.5/5 +fav :D

[36hunters]

Wow very nice!

[RamzGT]

proooooooooooooty nice man, keep twistin!

[cockaldoff]

this phuckin shit is sick hot

[Maxopo]

lol shakari influenced !!!!!!!!!

that's funny

[mchouse5000]

This is pretty sick.

[hvylobster]

Junglism.

[swarm69]

tahnks :)

[Vitafin]

How did it take me a year to discover? This is amazing.

[swarm69]

ahh hello will

[LukeShikari]

dude this is fucking sick, shikari influenced ?

[swarm69]

definatly not .. try venetion snares / arron spectre / propper breakcore ;) im not a shakari fan

[mikejeffery123]

one question, what sunth did you use for your "wubs"

[JazzDanceForChildren]

"Wubs" are made by syncing a sine wave LFO to the volume parameter and setting it to oscillate at whatever subdivision you want.

[mikejeffery123]

lol i know how to make wubs and i know what they are. i have thi smachine. i just wanted to know what synth he used.

[swarm69]

not a clue sory .. but its a dule osc its probably a sqaure too but cant remember exactly that might be right .. eerk

[subjct]

awfull...

[swarm69]

do better fag .... and yea i know it is i usualy produce using renoise

[kernelchagi]

:OOOOO

I looooooooooove it!!!

[popitem]

Sick tune !!! makes me want to get the emx...

weird at 1:37 it sounds like a voice sample.

[swarm69]

yeea man everything i used no external samples or sound sources although its not easy to use at first your realy gonna have to put allot of time inbto the programing .. but its worth because it just sounds siiick :P

[moosicninja09]

you should stick with this man. drums isn't your thing... this is just siq nasty awesomeness.

[swarm69]

naa i like my drumming

:P

[Shoomielove]

good work!

[barryon]

Can i just ask how you programmed those drums? I would love to make some breakcore stuff but everytime i sit down to program the beats it just (excuse the pun) beats me.

[swarm69]

are you using an emx or softwear?

if your using an emx

the most inportent thing is the snare

you want about 4

3 at diferent pitches ( with one as standered pitch)

and one with roll turned on

aside from that if you work around the basics of kicks on 1 and 11 and snare on 5 and 13 and then just add fils and veriation and you should be fiiiine

[barryon]

Im using software at the mo. (Reason 4 and a cme uf6). Have an emx on order. (can't wait!!) Thanks for the quick reply!!I hope you don't mind me hitting you up for a few tips once it arrives.I'll try giving that a go on the redrum and let ya know how i get on .

[wertzx]

i dont see how you send the fx to only the snare. im so confused

[swarm69]

the efect unit built into the korg .. im using grain shifter

[mikejeffery123]

Nice one! i didnt realise it was you that posted a comment on my mortal combat video! ill be posting a new video soon so yeah :)

WELL DONE ON THIS THOUGH!

[swarm69]

cheers dude :) i shall check that out

[QuantumAnomaly]

Honestly I had never thought of making breakcore with anything but software sequencers. Interesting approach.

[swarm69]

i also produce using softwear but i just tried the emx as an experiment its prety limited and the retrig effect is not perfect put it works prety well

[kruse26]

This is great ! you say the emx is limited? do you listen to Aphex Twin + Squarepusher bcuz i wanna know how versatile is this machine for making jungle breakdowns like yours? would this work well for making crazy drum n bass or do u prefer software? thanks for a reply- G

[swarm69]

personaly softweare but this is infinatly tweakable and loads of fun .. its just that softwear is infinatly expandable in every direction until you crash your cpu .. lol

but i love my emx its just theres only so far you can push it ..

[Moozig]

So what software would you recommend for creating breakcore stuff?

[paulrose]

renoise, its a tracker

if you've never used a tracker before they do take a little getting used to. but the best way is to just keep playing around with it until you get used to it. you'll need to slice the break up into small samples so you can rearrange it do snare rolls and other effects etc.

my advice is to play around with high tempos like 200+ so you can get some really hectic beats. good luck!

[Moozig]

Thanks a lot, it looks interesting! I was working with FruityLoops and Ableton so far, I have never heard about Renois before - I am playing with the demo right now, it seems complicated, but I will keep fighting :D

[swarm69]

it can be but the help page on the renoise web sight will set you stright its a prety mental little piece of softwear and once you astart memorising the efct codes you can right super tehcnical brakes realy quickly :)

[paulrose]

yeah as swarm69 says, its a very versatile piece of software but its takes time to work your way around but when you start to memorise things thats when you can get really creative.

[howincrediblyshit]

thats pretty good, but that dancing - what the fuck.

[jamesinflames]

haha i was just feeling those beats man :P

[PaulSuedeTwin]

man have you uploaded any of your tunes up anywhere, there fukin deadly

[PaulSuedeTwin]

wer can i buy one of these

[swarm69]

internet

[tediegay]

great work mate but i think it needs more bass - low and distorted

[swarm69]

yeeea its a bad recording the track has loads of sub on it that my camera wont pick up :)

[gavmanmusic]

renoise...

good program, good man :)

nice to see a fellow user

[EternalSunsetPL]

I like this dense amen break rhythm.

[xesquibadalona]

NIce man! I play with the hercules mp3 dj console and i wanna one of that. Look at my vids. Only a starter

[lmperia]

nice man!

[mryat]

i love this crazy drum!!!!

and you are effect master:)

[swarm69]

haha cheers (y)

[snowmanandy]

amazing video. thanks for sharing it.

just got a question, is the emx 1 difficult to use? as im thinking of buying one.

thanks.

[swarm69]

no not relay the drums are relay easy to program and the fx are great too

its easy to get the right sounds for the synth parts

but inputing them takes a while and its quite boring and repetitive but you can always just play them in

i love my korg i recommend it :)

[snowmanandy]

cool, thanks for the reply.

just another quick question, as i am going to go to school in england soon and may not be able to bring the emx 1 with me, therefore i may not be able to use it a lot. do you still think it is worth it for me to buy this?

[swarm69]

errmm.. well my advice is if your going to be in england any serious length of time buy one over here it costs pretty much the same amount so yea

were you going to school btw ??

[snowmanandy]

okay, thanks for the advice.

im going to school in essex.

[drjackohollious]

i just posted a vid response, it is not as cool as your vid but it is my first try, your vid kicka A@@!

[drjackohollious]

Holy SHEITE! That is fire man! Keep up the dope work.

[ShiShio8]

this was some serious shit... well done!! :D
