Yo Disco, that's some mad-ass afro man!

Surprised, u reworked the other beat. It's way hotta track now, the hook is what it should have been with the brazilian crew. Love the casio tones. I've been ****ing with my casio sk-5 sampler lately.... good times....good track
peace

[cynic one]

i like the funk-ball beat on the new track...i've been dropping those snare rolls on some of my beats for awhile since i heard serginho...

sounds dope.

[Dor]

Disco, BRAZA sounds HUGE. Did you mix that in the box? Summing box? Good work.

[Disco D]

yea pro tools HD and fatso in my fiancee's apartment, the acoustics are done in the room but i only have alesis m1 monitors to mix on right now, everything is 3 times the cost here. does anyone from mackie read this board? if so please private message me and save me from monitor hell!!!!!

[Disco D]

the vox were recorded on either an AKG3000 or whatever or a TLM103 forgot which mic we had access to, with a mackie board preamp (BOOOOOOOO - but hey it's brasil)

plugins were my standard set - filterbank, mc2000, renaissance verb, standard digi delay, renaissance compressor, mondomod, metaflanger.

[Dor]

Impressive. I've been shying away from waves plugins lately but i'll have to give em a second chance.

Dude, I know they suck, but you can get some bangin' ass mixes on the M1 crapptones. I used them for years when I was dirt ass poor.

[Disco D]

yea me too, just like NS10s, but I can't stand those either. I like my shit to sound bangin while I'm making it, accuracy be damned.

[cynic one]

ey don't hate on the m1s...i'm staring at a pair right now with an alesis sub :/

[Disco D]

yea well sub is the operative word there.

You guys should try an Emes mini owl. Not many people use em but it works for me

[PhonoquO]

So what's the idea disco, does the federline release have any affiliation with this new track, like is it a single that will have the brazillian on the b-side?

[Disco D]

no, totally separate. You have to understand 2 things:

1) those drum patterns and stuff are from an entire separate genre of music called Baile Funk that originated in the favelas of Rio

2) I wrote the Braza track the day before I wrote the Federline track which was 2 months before I even met Federline. I gave Kevin the option of both beats, he took #2, I tried to differentiate the two as much as possible.

I have been using alesis m1's for years and i love them for producing in my home studio

[Trike79]

Hey nice tracks, Whats the keys sound from on the first track thats real nice (Not a biter just curious)

[Dopamine]

Cool beat!

[Disco D]

thanks, it was just a sample hit i patched across the keyboard using my mpc 4k and then ran it thru some effects.

D,
where did you get the sounds from/how were they processed? Is this a sequence of beats you put together, sampled, and then pushed the sample through fatso? Are the individual instruments live recordings or from a sound module/sampler.

Did you go:

1. pro-tools --> summer --> fatso or
2. pro-tools --> fatso

Beya

[Disco D]

i chopped up some brasilian baile records, used some brasilian drum sounds my friend gave me along with this crazy old Africa kit by Akai. I used mostly MC2000 compressor to get the sound, with renaissance reverb and normal digi delay and mondo mod. I slapped the fatso across the stereo master bus in pro tools as an insert, i dont have a summer.

[Methlab]

speaking of summers, the SPL mixdream sounds real nice..I have had a chance to listen to it for a week through some genelecs (awesome monitors BTW)....

the track is nice..i like the drum sounds.
