Found this brilliant little video of a Drum & Bass band called London Elektricity. They show you how they play Drum & Bass live which can seem a strange concept at first to musicians who use computers for composition. I like the way in which they describe about how they use instruments such as drum pads to clearly show that a sample is being played by that particular musician. Sometimes when watching electronic music artists and bands it can just look like the musicians are just standing behind some equipment and your not sure what they are actually doing.

What else can we learn from this video? Well for a start we can also learn that regular backing up of the sounds that are in samplers and synths might be a great idea.

In a recent post I talked about how you can make your drum tracks sound more human like if you played them in using a keyboard instead of putting in drum hits with the mouse. I then then later showed you a great little video of a keyboard drummer showing off his skills in a instrument demonstration.
Well guess what?
Here are even more keyboard drummer videos to watch that I have found on YouTube. Enjoy!

Came across this nice little video posted on metacafe posted by Babblin5. The video shows how you can make some 5.1 surround sound headphones. Although I haven’t tried it myself, I liked the look of this little tutorial and am sure it works quite well. If you want to have a go at producing with surround sound but lack the equipment and the funds maybe a pair of these homemade 5.1 headphones might be fun to have a go at making and using. Enjoy!

In my previous post, I talked about using a keyboard to play drums in to make them sound more human instead of programming in with a mouse and after a little search around the net came across this brilliant little video. He can play better than some real drummers.

A brilliant 18 minute documentary which is available on YouTube. The "Amen Break" is a 6 second drum loop from the b-side of a chart-topping single from 1969. It is surprising how many times it has been used in different tracks over the years especially in Hip Hop, Drum & Bass and Jungle. This video shows how sampling one break can be used again and again in different ways to create a new piece of music in many different music styles.
