best advice i can give is to always keep a little notepad handy when watching dvds or tv shows and mark down timecodes of sounds/speech you may want to go back and sample
or if tv the show and episode you're watching (easily grabbed off imdb.com) then torrent em and sample away
but yeah maybe i'll do a lil triplet tutorial for people who probably don't get what i mean about that for beats

@00:27, how the hell did he cut that out? That's amazing.
Obviously so is the rest but this one was especially WTF
the vinyl has an acapella cut he might have been able to download or purchase... the way he pasted and manipulated them together though, who the fuck knows..

Yeah that's probably how he got that recorded. There's some fucking sick sampling in there, he knows his shit.
I want to learn more about his unorthodox and old technology, it really makes me think that equipment doesn't determine the quality of the tunes, because the creativity of mind can never be programmed by a computer.
Burial uses soundforge to compose tracks with audio samples
drumwise he cuts up audio samples from computer games and films using clips such as keys and dorrs shutting etc.
iv bin experemanting with this kind of take on drum sequencing recently and you can get sum sick sounds by cuttin samples in recycle or sumthin similar
the sounds can generally be changed to match better by pitch shifting so they roll together smoothly
the best thing i hav cum up with so far is swing 16th notes with various hats and clicks and a garage style bass and rim pattern(bass 1+9, rim 5+13) as opposed to using a snare
sounds siiic!
Soundforge has tonnes of options/FX that make sampling much easier. You can remove vocals or change them into male/female with a few clicks. It also has very good time stretching/reverb which works well to make drone sounds.
Don’t worry about people stealing an idea. If it’s original, you will have to ram it down their throats.

Amen.
When I first started ten years ago I had a family-used DELL with a copied FL Studio and a cracked Soundforge. A borrowed Keyboard--not a controller--a KEYBOARD. Had NO knowledge of mixing/engineering. Yet I did SO MUCH music back then, and even got six tunes signed!
: D
Today I have a glistening clean Mac, Logic 8, every Native Instrument they make, 24 bit samples from all over the earth, and can EQ the bark off a dog, but can't finish a single tune. Last good thing I made was in 2006.
My mouth dropped wide the F*** open.
