Always thought this goes hard af. Something about capturing that part of history in the most accurate way.

So I figured out the key to this one for me is to have a close dnb head friend sit in the room with me while producing and him just randomly saying why my shit sounds bad lmfao
but finally feel like im getting somewhere on this. Man this has been the most challenging sample pack comp for me, I feel like im learning so much

Itās always the ones I think will be easiest that I struggle with the most. I mean I was fully immersed in this scene when it happened, pretty much listened to nothing else, for the comp i curated the most apt samples and listened to a lot of old mixes to get in the headspaceā¦and nada.
Really found this one hard

I really wish someone would listen to my music and tell me why it sucks lol. Everyone I show my stuff is like āwow very coolā, could be a new masterwork symphony or wet fart noises

LOL didnāt mean to flex
So Iām starting to get this thing goin on discord where we all jump in a voice channel and then showoff works in progress or new tunes and give feedback or just say what we thought of it.
Not sure what time zone youāre in but weāve been doing it around 2am GMT on Wednesday since everyone is in the USA but weād love to have ya join if youāre able. Maybe we can do an odd Saturday or Sunday one here n there so the time would be more realistic for people in Europe.

Nice, joined the group. I donāt really use Discord, but will definitely try and join in on one of those.
You should post in the production thread or something
Nice one
Shit, boizā¦ letās be honest. Whoās done already? Whoās barely or totally not started?
Got some slappin little loops and sounds going but not much in the way of arrangement. Forced myself to gain stage samples last night, ugh, like pulling teeth (more than usual anyway.)
Thing is: itās not that Iām not feeling this one - I am and have been - but the production headspace keeps being elusive, even more than usual. Iād rather make dank m8son memes.
More coffee I guess.

Tbh, the furthest Iāve gotten is un-zipping the folder. I havenāt even listened to the samples yet.
Iāve been in a weird headspace. Iāve been in a musical headspace but just not a production one.
Mostly been planning on making some hard steppers dub. Listening to a lot of Jah Shaka and others.
The fire is still there somewhere.
This is actually from a previous DSF comp. I donāt think anyone really liked it.

10 days to goā¦
Iāve been having relationship issues and bad depression to boot so Iāve barely touched this unfortunately 
not to mention Iāve been gone on work trips the past 3 out of 3 weeks

Waitā¦ thereās breaks in the pack? I think Iāve been working with the wrong samplesā¦ dammit. Only had one pack downloaded on new PC, assumed it was for this compo, but might have been for the last one. It was only called DSF SAMPLE PACK with no indication of which compo it was for, so I blame whoever named it like that.
Anyways, layered and processed some of these samples and bounced new, thicc ones that are more usable, so will prolly make something with these too, outside of the compo.
But also ye, links are broken for sample pack dl, @sleeps maybe you could DM me a working one, and Iāll see if I can get something made for the compo too.

The breaks are in the DRUM folder.
I started a tune yesterday.
Well definitely the wrong one then lol, there are no sub-folders in this oneā¦ But I started looking at this tonight, so no biggie really.
Am totally ok if youāre handicapped in this lol.
Forget the breaks, you donāt need em.
