Burial type samples
Does anyone know where any wooden hit samples are? If you have any, or know where any are, I really need em. MSN me or post some links. thanks.
you could always check out www.freesoundproject.org. pitch shifting drums could give you that sound as well, esp. rimshots.

It'sa lot if fun to get a cheap electret mic coupled with a minidisc recorder or hard disk/flash based recorder and some headphones and walk around town pointing it at shit.
I've one this a couple of times for uni projects and it's a lot of fun, plus you have completely unique samples noone else in the world has.

yeah, for example, i had read in an interview with him, and he was taking about following this random person in the street with a mic, and the man walked into a church, so burial followed him, and just used that whole sequence of floowing that man, which wasn't much really, just like wind and maybe a few footsteps and doors, and just left it intact in one of his tracks.Misk wrote:hehe oops!
yeah, that place. as far as "professional" samples go.. what exactly do you mean? that site has some amazing samples, recorded with mics that cost more than my car.![]()
theres shit on there too, you just gotta look. regardless tho, i think burial does do a lot of field recordings.
he was talking about how you can feel the atmosphere of the track change the moment the man walks in the church... something in the sound textures changes..
interesting stuff

though its not about his samples, I really don't understand how can a tune be made with only soundforge, it is not even multichannel is it?"B: So I thought to myself fuckit I’m going to stick to this shitty little computer program, Soundforge. I don’t know any other programs. Once I change something, I can never un-change it. I can only see the waves. So I know when I’m happy with my drums because they look like a nice fishbone. When they look just skeletal as fuck in front of me, and so I know they’ll sound good.
M: So you don’t use a sequencer?
B: No.
M: So does that mean your drums are not necessarily in time?
B: My drums are definitely not necessarily in time. When I try and do drums that are too regimented, they lose something. But the moment I put drums where I think they sound good, rather than in time, they seem to have that roll, the swing of the jungle and garage tunes I love."

when you 'paste' sounds onto the waveform, there is a mix function that allows you to mix it in at a certain volume...
Freesound isn't a bad resource at all, but sometimes it seems to me it would be easier to just get a mic and start beating on stuff rather than browse that site.Misk wrote:you could always check out www.freesoundproject.org. pitch shifting drums could give you that sound as well, esp. rimshots.

i've "accquired" the separate tracks from teardropFoamo wrote:i managed to get this reverbed rimshot sound excatly like the one in alot of burial tracks..
as for his breaks, theyre jus sampled breaks.. get massive attack-blue lines and mezzanine albums, i think hes sampled more than one or two breaks or one-shots from them albums
