I can't quite believe how generous you were with your studio/production secrets. Most producers who are interviewed in that magazine are pretty cagey when it comes to tips and tricks. You're a total dude. Thank you.

Didn't Wookie work out of Jazzie B's office which was why he could rework Fairplay and all those other tunes? Ewah, correct me if i'm wrong but wasn't his office "The Africa Centre"? i think it might have been in '88, but by 2000 or so, Wookie was in S2S's HQ in camden. that's where i saw...

lot's of bitter bitches in here.

yeah Toasty Boy really knows what he is doing.

FFS - please do not put Burial and Marvin Gaye in the same sentence.

i think people need to be careful not to confuse 'influential' with 'big', esp in terms of the order when they came out. tunes that came with a given idea first should be given the credit. for example 'blipstream' was big but 'request line' came before it, so i'd definitely nominate 'request line' ...

Where does Wookie fall within all this? That boy was rocking the wobble moog basslines back in 1998.

What swing setting are you guys using for your tracks? Do you have say a 45% swing on your 16th notes and a 45% on your (half time) 8th notes? Or are you keeping everything strictly quantised and using velocity to make things groove?

Is the chorus calm down a sample or not?

Not sure but this is one of the best 'vocal' dubstep tunes I've heard.

Proberly very late on this but only heard it for the first time last night on Freez.

Excellent production on this. GREAT tune.

B-lam, mate go and stand over there with your budget Triangle 2 suggestion……B-U-D-G-E-T!!!!!

THINGS I LOVE ABOUT ABLETON LIVE Workflow - Session and arrangemnet view is so handy Audio Routing - Much easier than sending stuff through busses like in Logic Device Chain - being able to swap effect in the chain is so handy Saturator - Wow what a plug-in. Beautiful distortion Ulitily Plug - Very ...

Interesting post Jason. Thank you.

Because Ableton Live 5's metering is so poor, what does -6dbfs mean in Ableton. If I used PSP Vintage Metering on the master track as a guide, what should my peak be hitting for a 24 bit WAV. -6db or more like -3db ?

A Toasty Boy album would be cool.

Some of these "top" producers need to stop doing everything in Reason and invest in some analogue kit. Even a little Mackie analogue Desk would help. who are you talking about though? i hear some stuff which sounds thin, but i would say that most of the top producers have got a pretty ful...

(IMO) Toasty Boy pisses on everyone. The ideas in his tunes and the PRODUCTION is only matched by Search & Destroy. (IMO). I think there is an issue in dubstep with production values. There doesn't seem to be a huge amount of well produced tunes. Amazing ideas and vibes but a lot of the tunes so...

I was laughing to myself about how Tre was getting more and more jealous of Simon. Tre the hater.

I've got ear plugs and its one of my best investments. The audiologist told me that over the last 3 years her business had tripled with people coming in for tests and getting moulds done for their custom ear plugs. She blames people playing their I-pods too loudly and people going to loud clubs with...

Great! Another late night...
