Why Do Old School Breakbeats Sound So Good?

When listening critically to the Amen Break or the Apache break, you start to realize that these sounds are just not possible in real life. You tuned your drum set, you got your best mics and set everything just like they told you in every tutorial. You set everything up and realize the sound is clean and vanilla. Its not bad, but you will never achieve the breakbeat sound this way. Its not about vinyl, the analog days, or tape effects, or sampling.

The biggest reason why old school breakbeats sound awesome compared to real life drums is because of their preamp. Overdrive your tube preamp and you are halfway to the breakbeat sound. Drums sound ridiculously good with an overdriven preamp. Cymbals sizzle and snares start to scream. All sounds start to take on a new timbre. The room reverb compresses and you hear every detail. The truth of the matter is that many old school breaks were horribly recorded compared to today.

GreenDay recorded drums with a tube preamp and used reverb. Their early albums have a coveted drum sound. The truth is that there was a reasonable amount of distortion in every part of the signal chain starting with the preamp. It was inevitable that distorted breakbeats would become very famous in the same way an as overdriven TR-909 would be used on every recording out there. Distorted drums scream!

Abandonware: Redmatica Autosampler

Redmatica Autosampler seemed to be abandoned or bought out this year by Apple. But that means there is no current method to sampling midi instruments on the mac. Only if you scour the web its possible to find it. (on 4 shared).

It seems like there should be a VST sampler on the mac also...

Free Software Sampler & 2GB sound library!!!

For mac & Windows!

Yellow tools is proud to release a powerful free version of Independence - the ultimate sampler workstation! Independence Free 2.0 is already based on the new Independence 2.0 version which will also be released during this months

The only downside is that it doesnt let you import files. I think they want you to get used to the software first and then upgrade to their pro models...but how can you turn down a VST with 2GB free sounds?!!

The loops were created using Reason in a modular approach, which you can hear from the results.
