Reason 4 - Jungle / Drum & Bass - Listen . . .

Another old tune of mine from '96 reconstructed on Reason 4, like for like.
164bpm.
It feels like I've spent far too much time on this tune and I've had real trouble with mixing and mastering; which isn't helped by the fact that I don't really know what the fuk I'm doing when it comes to mixing and mastering, so I'm not sure how good (or bad) the sound quality will be |:o/
I think I may have 'over-worked' it but I've heard it so many times now me mind has turned to mush, but I'm uploading it regardless cuz I just wanna get on with the rest of me life :O)
It is what it is.
Comments welcomed.

mate how did you make that pad? i have reason aswell but i'm a noob did you use thor?

[RTHarman]

@petenennstiel I'de like to say I toiled, fine tuning Thor or the Malstrom until I achieved this pad, but I wouldn't be telling the truth.

It's actually a sample off of a sample CD called "What Next!" I've looped the sample and tweeked it a bit with effects but the basic sample is pretty much as it came.

If you IM your email I can send you the patch if you like.

Thanks for listening in (no pun intended)

this tune is mad, the amens are sounding sick how uve mashed and merged them together!

[RTHarman]

@Mastamind91 Thanks man - glad you're liking it ;)

Yeah, you can't beat the Amen break - it's great to work with and I put a lot into this one - it was good fun.

Cheers matey

Omg pad at the start is so oldskool Jungle love it!!, any chance on giving me a hand starting off to Reason, need help please :)

[RTHarman]

@1xtrabailey Hey, thanks for the positive feedback ;)

There are loads of good tutorials for Reason on Youtube.

One channel that I have learnt so much from is hydlide24 and would highly recommend him. He has tutorials that start right from basics through to more advanced and, for me, he has been invaluable ;)

If you ever get stuck or want to know how something is done, sure, message me through YT.

this tune is great, love the beginning feel to it, nice smooth vibes through out but a good funky hard hit, the instruments you use are spot on, and love the samples, specially the random hello, keep em coming ;) 5/5

[Garfler]

nice man, i like the melody and the crash is awesome.

[RTHarman]

Hi pokerockmario123 - thanks for the nice comments and rates - It's appreciated mate ;)

I've used three loops on this - @ 0:47 (and throughout) is a loop that I only know of as the 'Think' loop; another loop comes in at around 0:58 which I'm not sure of the name and then the Amen break is used at around 2:19 - ihope that's helpfull :D

Peace

[pokerockmario123]

That sounds interesting! a bit like Mega Man 8 (the sine wave and background) What is the name of the drum loop? I give this a 5/5!

[kevwaarn]

Its got a nice feel to it - reminds me of EZ Rollers

[RTHarman]

Thanks JM ;)
