the drum beat in this song... WTF? anybody wanna help me break it down?

it isn't that hard. Just a bit rare

kick shuffled

rimshot and hihats not shuffled.

My Q is what the heck is that synthsound from ? it sounds fat and faerkin oldschool =)

yeh the kick is all over the place, thats what makes it feel all stuttery, he also contrats this by doing a bit were for 4 times in a row everything falls on the beat

i think maybe he does out his parts at a slower tempo with no quantize then speeds them up to 140 135 ish and adds more

thats what it sounds like to me

he places everything manually in a wave editor

thats interesting...

you have an article about that?i would appreciate the read

its definitely apparent the way he cuts those 90s dance singers that he was using wave editor style processing.

and it does explain that one beat of his that is completely off time

haha i checked for the song thats completely offtime and its shutta...

i cant stand this track, the swing is soo off.

but i love everything else hes done

I think he talks a bit about how he makes tunes here:

search for burial blackdown interview or kode9 interview

Dude used soundforge only. Not sure how exactly. Maybe he's moved on but, I think untrue was done in soundforge

Inspiring great article.... That guy is deep man.

i think you have to take any burial interview with a grain of salt just like you would an aphex twin one

ahah true

"im retiring from music to play videogames"

soon after that.....

drukqs comes out

cool interview indeed. i like the way burial approaches his music. it sounds like he REALLY cares about his tunes...

I dunno i think he's deep...

It feels like he's had the time to think, the time to analyse what he likes what he doesnt.

You hear alot about how he wasnt the one raving and how its his brother, i think that left him with the time to think, but something to aspire to as well, something he knew he was missing, and i think thats the sadness that comes through in his albums, the bit thats missing.

On another note i think he's a little over the top about the archaity of his production, but its all part of his image.

Anyway i can't wait to hear his next album, wasnt sure about his four tet thing, not enough rolling drums for my liking, but untrue and burial are pure gold.


On a final note anyone wanna give me a tour of the most important bits of garage and jungle, the big tunes and the revalutionary ones too, i really want to hear more of the drums, i think i prefer them to the emptyness of most dubstep beats :S

i think hes a simple dude with great fantasy and a own way of succeeding his goal in making music.

start with some acid house and work your way through the years that it evolved into the other genres

any names?
