i'd like to talk to anyone who produces house music of the funky variety(sneak ,bangalter,morillo,morales etc)about the art of programming beats, especially hi hats and snare patterns. I would like to share ideas and tips with any one on these specialist areas ie positions ,quantizing,velocity, effects,post production,decays&sustains etc i need info on these areas however i have many ideas and tips for people on other areas of production if they are willing to share the real secrects of poducing the perfect house drum and percussion loops.speak soon.p.s anyone willing to share midi files would be greatly appreciated, no junk please.

a delay unit will help too. with a really subtle return to the desk you should get some nice rythms growing out of that.

vary your attack times as well, have a hh with a slower attack and vary it's pattern with the normal hh

man don't get pissed cos we do it better than you... everything has to come to an end.. it's inevitable that the yanks start stuff they can't finish. call it a lack of commitment, you know what I'm sayin tho? you get bored of stuff too easily and let it slip.. we take it, love it, build on it and make it something beautiful and then you lot pretend that you were the ones who did all the hard work.

I don't like british cheesy house though.

Ok

1) House music is the shit.
2) I live in the midwest (MetroDetroit) so if someone who is probably my age (21) from Chicago can claim to know about House music, so can I.

I personally think that the only house with soul comparable to Chi or NYC that comes out of Europe is the drumtrack Brit-Diva garage and the better French guys of their similar genre. What I'm calling Brit-Diva is like...that Goldie-track on the Pete Tong Ibiza disc (I borrowed it!)... Hey, Traxx from Chicago spins tracks just like that.

But what I'm calling soul is subjective. whatever...

and a lot of American house is bad

(whisper...West Coast...fucking crazyheads in LA)

i'm no expert but this is what i've found to help me:

the decay of the drum hitz matter. try 3 short hi hats
followed by a long one. swing=volume&timing(someone
pick on me by posting a better equation). if you use
cubase go in with the boot. snap to like 3pp (i turn
quantize off). kick notes between the up and the down
beat. i also use the list editor to edit volume and
note length (decay).

also, listen LISTEN listen to the beats that you like.
immitate before you innovate. i even record trax i
like into soundforge so i can SEE what they did...where
they put the beats.

then step back and try to dance to it. how does
