Do you use a lot of distortion (bass, drums etc)? And if so, what is your favourite distortion plugin/s to use? You also mentioned breaks earlier so the obligatory top 5 breaks question must be asked :6: i use a fair bit of distortion on basses, the trick is a little, a lot of the time. so rather t...

Hey Reso, sick tunes mate. Thanks for taking the time. I'm just having a listen once again to "Hemisphere". You mentioned before a little about how you approach pads, and hemisphere has some great pad sounds. Could you explain a bit more about what you used in that track? I used to use FM...

Before you were Reso, don of aggrostep, and we were all here kissin up and asking questions... How ghetto was your setup? Question two... Best promotional outlet youve found to date? Oh and EDIT::: Big up for doin this man, Id have nagged mods to set it up with you anyway, gotta love taking it into...

best thread I've read in a while, cheers for doing this mate :D one question, how long do you spend on sound design? seems like all I do now is sound design and I never get down to actually making music, do you have the same problem or is it pretty straightforward getting your sounds sorted? I have...

Q. What food n drink you rockin' in the studio?

Coffee, bacon n eggs in the morning, tea and haggis/fish/pizza in the evening, plus a pack of silver bensons. The lifestyle of a champion I think you'll agree.

No questions but I would just like to say, you are a god for doing this.. so many producers that have made it big aren't even willing to post on any message boards, they ignore any questions about producing and such, let alone post screenshots of their own made secrets and hard work.. Of course man...

Since you us so many incidentals and different sounds how do you best preview or find which ones to use in the context of your song? Also how do you go about organizing all your samples and one shots? I use the media preview box in logic, and have a load of fx folders that are from sample cd's and ...

how do you feel about people illegally downloading your music? especially as you've sad yourself that you make your money mostly from shows rather then tunes, and if people ilegally downloading and sharing your music makes you more popular and get your more shows and therefore more money that way w...

Sweet thread and props for all the answers! With Technetium did you set out to make a beat that, erm, popped(?) so much or just sumble upon it? How much of your stuff is blind experimentation and how much is planned sound?- I just sit in my chair bouncing up and down to that tune lol :lol: haha tha...

Thx for your answers ! I got a new question : At the end of Otacon (at 6:10) there is some kind of atmosphere sound, like a hipassed reese or something, how did you that sound ? i love these little fx during atmospheric parts :z: you got it, it is just a highpassed reese with a load of delay and ph...

Ive had a nice read through all this, your tracks are ill man! I wanna be cool like you one day! My question for you is : Did you ever get a peice of hardware that motivated you to work harder? That leads me to the the next, What would you say is the most important peice of hardware to keep in a st...

this is one of the best threads I have ever read. thanks to Reso for this it would be great if more producers did this - not to copy their style or anything but seeing screenshots of a pro's monitor is just really interesting. while we're naming tunes, I love the remix of Grand Puba - Get It. my on...

man, your remix of mike lemmon's brass eye and hyperglide have to be two of my most fav tracks up to date, seriously big up! for my question i would like to ask; 1. how do you go about making a weighty sub like the one in the brass eye remix? also 2. what advice would you give to 'up and coming' ar...

Good drum tips... already used a couple but resampling the kick seems very useful. Anything for bass? I've barely got started with resampling and was wondering how a typical bassline would be arranged, step by step? For instance in otacon, where it starts off wobbling and then is just like WOHTBBOH...

Big up Reso, nice one for the QnA, that 169 track arrangment is a bit mental tbh tho.... you're mad How much of your sounds come from random samples, i.e. stuff you've recorded yourself etc, rather than sample packs? do you record much percussion stuff live? like on the thing you did with starkey f...

Do you hate people mentioning how filthy your tunes in the youtube style i.e. " This is filthier than gollum's ballsack "? hahahahaha i really couldn't give a shit, how people wanna describe my music is up to them. Youtube is it's own weird little universe that doesn't translate to the r...

you said earlier that you're doing music full time... how did you get to this point? were you previously unemployed and just had the time to produce? or did you decide to leave your job once you reached a point where you knew your tunes would require all of your effort/energy? what kind of stuff do...

This is crazy, so many inane questions I feel I must ask. Firstly; did you jizz your pants when you finished Hemisphere and cranked it for the first time? I couldn't tell you how many times I've listened to that tune. looool, no hahaha. It's hard to take an objective view of my own music, honestly ...

big ups for this reso :t: do you have a certain structure when it comes to building your drops? or do you try something new each time? cheers When making dance music it's slightly limiting in the sense that you have to stick to even numbers of bars regarding drops and stuff, so sometimes i do reall...

Cheers for fuckin sharing this with us man! <3 Got 2 questions myself: - How does your mixdown process go? I usually don't get any further than putting each sound in the mixer and cutting/boosting frequecies. When I put a tune online there's always someone saying : 'Your mixdown could use some work...
