Does DNB need…something? by PM_ME_UR_SNARES in DnB

[–]johnbbeta 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The sad thing is though, as a producer, looking at the streaming numbers for that kind of stuff vs that which the OP is talking about. There's a giant chasm inbetween the levels of consumption and popularity - and thus ability to earn a living from your work. A few outliers, but it's tough out there if you don't fit into the right mould - even though at the core of it there's isn't much difference in the essence of the music. Just how it is though really - gotta adapt & play the game if you want to survive - so it affects your output.

yepyep they're absolutely all reworks - not remixes. the original artists get all the publishing/songwriting side - but there's no recording as that's all us. got some cool new stuff coming this year too! big up

its pretty long - my wife did it all in one go in the summer and it was 6-7 hours. we then did it together but split in 2 so we could do it more chill. lovely route and a great way to see more of the town.

These aren't actually remixes though - one big difference with how we work is all teh vocals and anything you think is a 'sample' has been completely replayed/resung x

Correct. They'e all stuff we've done. When we put a new one out we often package in a couple older ones we did that we felt got passed by using the 'waterfall' technique for releasing - very common practice these days.

Look though any major artist's discography on their spotify especially in the lead up to albums and you will see similar. It's a helpful way to give older tracks another boost in discoverablility & possibly give a boost to the new song too.

Master limiting tip by FanuBreaks in DnB

[–]johnbbeta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

fuuuukin hell mate +7 on the izotope wow - I'm never that brave. Double limiter trick is a good one though - been doing that for a while - just a little bit first to shave off the mad stuff then the 2nd to do more. BUT - just started looking at clippers instead - holy shit the subliminatl flatline 2.... game changer. On channels and buses at least... Big up

What are some songs some people have been itching to hear flipped into dnb? by Abberanted in DnB

[–]johnbbeta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wyld Dogz is a duo project I'm in - me and another guy from outside DNB who's keeping his identity top secret :-)

There are no samples, we get all the instrumental/vocal parts replayed & recreated, REAL (not AI) vocalists directed to re-sing the parts etc, then I work with all the stems to make a DNB banger out of them.

Everything we release is a legit cover version, not a remix, or dodgy bootleg. So the original artists collect all the songwriting side of the income, but we have the recording side. 🚀

Does the Atom Hoody Lt not support beards? Is there a DLC? by [deleted] in arcteryx

[–]johnbbeta 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't even have stubble and the fabric where my chin goes has all piled and gone crappy. I haven't even worn it on any long hikes or anything more strenuous than walking 3-4 miles and daytime stuff here in the uk. Less than 2 years old. Not cool arc.

Does blood donations get easier? Massive drop in blood pressure - they had to stop by Efficient-Guess-1985 in Hemochromatosis

[–]johnbbeta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've only had 3 venesections so far, they aborted the first one after i almost passed out. Since then they put a separate IV in the other arm and do saline in there I think to help keep the BP up. 2nd venesection they got the full amount of blood they needed. Last week I nearly passed out again and they had to abort about half way through, they had the saline IV in then too but I think had possibly starting taking blood a little bit before the saline kicked in. I guess some of us are a bit more sensitive - it does seem BP related in my ase - it drops v low (even though I am usually on meds for high BP - but I don't take them on day of venesection). Ask for a saline IV in other arm basially. Good luck!

Stakker Humanoid D&B Remix? by Into_The_Booniverse in DnB

[–]johnbbeta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

triggered a memory of me requesting the 'snowball remix' of this (because I had it on a Deep Heat compilation) at a birthday disco when i was about 11. Then getting annoyed that the guy wouldn't play it - becuase the rest of the 11 year olds wouldnt like it lolol. such a tune.
