Does anyone know any specifics about the FX chain that was used on those drums during the break, or any of the other relevant recording techniques? Those are some of the hardest drums...ever. I'd love to know more about getting the same kind of sound from my own drums (without just directly sampling that loop...which ain't cheap nowadays).
Crappy studio,no special efx. nothing special...just great funky drumming.
