Aesthete18 Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 I'm using Fruity Loops Studio, and I'm making a slow ambience kinda track, not sure what's the exact genre. The closest reference I can make is the group Halogen. Their track Millicent has kinda drums that I'm looking for. You can hear the track I was just wondering if there are any tips or tutorial links anyone can provide, maybe some samples that I can download? Most of what I find on youtube are the fast type of DnB, probably because I don't know the genre so if anyone can point out the genre that'd be great too.

Sadona Sedeno Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 well if you want to make your own.Hit the bass drum every fourth beat.Right right after the fourth beat hit the snare and hi-hat.It is an idea but you can use it and create or adjust it to make it your own Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aesthete18 Posted August 31, 2012 Author Share Posted August 31, 2012 Tried it, doesn't sound right to me, I might be interpreting what you said wrongly. Do you mind explaining more? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deviousness Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Ok, I have been using fl studios for a while now and know this style of drums. It's heavily relied on accenting the "off beats" while cramming a whole bunch of random fills with you hi-hats. If we break it down into 8th notes (assuming you know what that is) if you count out 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8 being your entire bar, the bass drum will be on 1 and 6. "1"-2-3-4-5-"6"-7-8. If you understand this post then you now know how to make the iconic bass drum from DnB. I tell you what, I will make a beat and send you the fl studios project files so you can view the drum line first hand???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
