First of all, great track, man. I love the sound design in the intro; have you heard of Lee Gamble? He has a track called “BMW Shuanghuan X5” that I’m getting similar vibes from. I love how evident the original samples are in this track despite how hard it goes toward the end. I had a hard time not just completely deconstructing the sounds to get percussion sounds, but it sounds like you were able to get a lot of groove out of these things without too much deconstruction. also, great kick sound, that was also not super easy for… Read more »
I haven’t but I will check Lee Gamble out! Thanks for listening man! Yeah, getting a kick out of this was hard. I used the lady screaming towards the end of the sample as the basis of the kick.

The modulation and sample shaping is phenomenal! kick and bass are tight, Intense energy, can’t ask for much more in a good track.
Thanks! I really appreciate that 🙂
