Hi, if you look in the Live 8 library, you should have a "Loopmasters" folder with some extra content provided by that company. The loop that I use in this video is in:

Loopmasters --> Bass Loops --> Minimal

I hope this helps and thanks for watching!

crazy and geniune stuff.

anyways i think i missed the beat repeat in the beginning. Some random beat repeats is classic glitch effect.

another cool thing is to edit some random samples and reverse them.

However this video inspired me to make crazier things and experiment a bit, rather than dropping 4x4 kicks and do the classic stuff.

i understand where you are coming from. but the thing to realise about this tutorial is that it opens up possablities for your own experimentation, rather than showing you a definite planned tutorial on how to make one specifc glitich out of one specific loop. Rather, exploring a spontaneous flow, and as Nick has said a few times, not trying to control the result too much, letting it unfold into something, that is sometimes mediocre, but sometimes AMAZING.
