Those kicks are too powerful - maybe they sound good at home, but watch those levels and you'll notice how out of place they are... Try to equalize the sound - this sounds horrible. And it's pretty stock I might add - nice groove, but those effects don't bring it alive, it just sounds generic.
It doesn't sound bad because it's an FLV video... Anyone can effortlessly make it sound descent despite the FLV compression... My point was that the amen isn't brought to life - it sounds generic because of all the reverb and poor engineering, and the kicks are very badly equalized. It's pretty fucking obvious that I wasn't talking about poor sound quality, but you just don't bother to read before posting, do you? You have a lot of "bitsmashing" to do before you can step up...
Hey JJ,did you use any effects on the seperate samples?
How long did you work on just making this beat,it's awesome imo.
I'm curious wich effects you used on the track,is it possible to post a screen of the bottom renoise effect bar?Its hard to see wich effects you put on based on this screen.
i use renoise too, try running the bpm at 750-800 or so, (which is actually 200) but you can make some crazy buzz rolls when the screen flies down that quick.
Thanks! I'm using a program called Renoise. Google it and search for it on Youtube. It is a pretty sweet tracker which is great for creating breaks. I'm working on a full song using this break, I'll post it when it's done.
Good Shit!!!

Hahah @ UncleC69's comment.
The amen being sampled was probably one of the weirdest things at the time to people too, so I dunno why you're stifling musical creativity.

Good old renoise ;)
I've actually made a tune using the amen beat & renoise fairly recently.
Check the video response - hope u like it :)

"OK, so the sample itself is pretty crap"
Speaking of the Amen Break like this is heresy.

OK, so the sample itself is pretty crap, but as you can see, it can be made ito something beautiful.
Tell me, dear JJRocco, what effects did you put on this at the bottom? I don't need specifics, so don't worry ;p
