yes youre right...

the drums are a little different

TTB · 16th October 2007

Yeah travis dont Live drum on all his stuff. I actually heard a beat CD from Travis from my boy CHE, he had some hip hop beats he was doing, only 1 or 2 had live drums.

But ...Umbrella was a hit!

CWsounds · 16th October 2007

So, are they or aren't they live drums... Apparently the drums are from a garageband/logic preset kit... was it a loop or a kit?? Either way I was blown away by the sound of those drums, the mixing was on point.

Here's the drum loop at 93 bpm.

Dante310 · 16th October 2007

this puts all those apple loops i have just sitting in logic in a new perspective

Dor · 16th October 2007

Steve Jobs is now in control, & we wonder why todays' music ain't got soul? haha.

Versatile255 · 16th October 2007

wow this made me laugh when i then to listen to the track wow cant believe this was a hit now.

Zacchino · 16th October 2007

It reminds me back in the times I heard tons of Reason loops used in these ringtones commercial... Pathetic.

But here we're talking about another level of production. The synth are awesome and actually sound like rain (undermixed). The loop had bean really well eq'ed and sound alot more thicker on the record. So actually, it's no big deal. It's just as impressive as when The Neptunes use Triton presets.

ONE LUV · 16th October 2007

yeah, haha....but it sucks to use those loops....

make money make money

i hate this song and of course the keyelement, those drums...arr and you couldn´t escape from this song because it was played EVERYWHERE ....

e

but i like the fact that the prod. and rihanna got good money for it....

The loop has been layered with another kick to give it boof ......

It's great and novel that we know which loop they used for the song , but i do not understand why this makes the track any less than what it is in the eyes of some , unless people think that songs are just vehicles to place beats over and not the other way around !

The Beatsmith · 16th October 2007

who gives a **** where the loop comes from? why is it suddenly 'so lame' when a couple of weeks ago everyone was sucking each other off over this track?

Puma · 16th October 2007

One of the key elements in this track, is the drum mapping and the sound!! A fresh and innovative rhythm of todays R&B - And then it turns out, it's just an apple loop??!

oh man...

I'm sorry. But that's like, if "Still Dre"'s piano riff, was an apple loop...

noizemakerz · 16th October 2007

^^ It would still be dope!

Puma · 16th October 2007

No doubt

PhonoquO · 16th October 2007

some of the greatest hiphop songs of all time feature premade drumloops! wtf cares. song was a sure fire hit. it was all in the vocal melody.

Well the producer made a hit out of this loop.
That's his job so who really cares?

jbuehler · 16th October 2007

FYI, Tricky produced the album I am told.

Anybody know how much "producing" Tricky actually did?

You're absolutely right.

Maybe I'm the only one now feeling, these producers behind the track, aren't as "genius", as I thought they were.

They made a fantastic track, but it's not a groundbreaking masterpiece anymore.

But who the f*** cares anyway...

Sensual Ears · 16th October 2007

everybody dogging the fact that is an apple loop will NEVER be successful.

so it's JUST an apple loop. you didn't care before. you didn't KNOW before.

as another has said SO MUCH of hip-hop has been about using loops cut from vinyl.

somebody else uses a common everyday accessible piece to write a HIT song and people get MAD and dismissive, like THEY COULD have done it.

but they didn't, and they never would have, because they don't have the EAR to HEAR what someone else heard.

art is transformation. everything is influenced. all "creations" are merely subjective interpretations of intangible dimensions.

nothing wrong with apple loops by the way, seeing as how i hear them EVERYWHERE, especially on television.

Flymax · 16th October 2007

Poor guy that made that loop for apple for $50..
