Re: Other house beats?

2003-08-08 by endlessnessisticman

Try some lfo on the decay of the BD.  Put some delayed claps on # 2 5
9 and 13.

Use a four bar loop.  Make thee 1st and 3rd similar and the 2nd and
4th similar.  Make the 4th bar more complex.  Have that snare on 2 and
4 but in the fourth bar have a snare with lower volume on #9.  More HH
on the 4th too.
