just curious.

I love chainsaws, and lazer bass, and the sound of a light sabre.

All boys love these sounds standard its written in the bible of 'how to be a yout all your life'

if i made a preset in reaktor (hypothetically), and then gave it out to 1000 producers on beatport for example; how many of those 1000 would end up using it in their tunes?

if i was a baker, and someone gave me the recipe for the most popular muffins about; would it make sense that i'd run back home to the shop and turn out these muffins all day, in the hope that i'd make a name for myself? wouldn't i want to try and make unique muffins to make my shop stand out?

i just want to understand the concensus here, in regards to originality in creativity. no one likes imitation, if its just done to jump on trends.

the muffins v. bass patches analogy won't work because I would want you to go and bake those dank muffins

it all depends really tho in regards to harsh synth bass


like sometime it works and some times it fails miserably


depends on the rest of the recipe

i voted for more autotune.


*clicks over to unpopular opinions thread*

u gt an example of chainsaw bass?

it's utterly obnoxious. it's well past "jump-up" in its function. I don't understand people who can stand to listen to it.

I have a serious question seeing as you cite beatport


like, as I dont really sift thru mp3 sites for tunes - so I wouldnt kno


do you come across more shit you have to weed thru? than if you were scanning vinyl releases?

i'm not citing beatport to cite beatport. i'm just using that site as its one of the biggest stores out there.

it sounds like a chainsaw being pitched up or pitched down, depending on the tune in question. you know it when you hear it, and its on any of the big internet radio channels every day. i buy vinyl every week, and i definitely don't hear it that much in the vinyl coming out right now, so that's a very good point jolly.

people gotta take stock of what is dead out and dead that shit out

if anything's in hundreds of tunes, it starts to sound like drudge
let alone shit to begin with

.... Everything in moderation, is my vote

yo what up peach punch. everyting irie?

u know it =) whats goin on bro

not the best 1st post but ...wise nonetheless haha

This is the only thing that really peeves me in a set - when you get one after another of these - I'll admit the first couple of times I heard this stuff I was feeling the energy and how fucked and leftfield this stuff is but very quickly its turned into monotonous dredge. Give me wobbles over this any day!

I have heard 1 track with the chainsaw effect in

the other day though I did heard a track that sounded just like a certain calligraphy

I buy vinyl

im not even talking about that tune... it' the hordes of *almost* chainsaw metal voovovoovovovoo shit that does my nut in

Yea I'm not really sure what you mean, I've only heard one track with a chainsaw in it. Audio example maybe? Btw I buy vinyl and I used to buy online and there is DEFINATELY more varied and better stuff (less shit to sift through) with vinyl.

we don't even need to name tunes or the people behind certain tunes. that's really irrelevant. the point i'm trying to make is this depressing trend of the same palette of sounds being used by X amount of producers. why would anyone want to turn out tunes that sound just like the next man down the road?
