    Not much to say that hasn't already been said, but I got excited when I saw the preview for this I got pretty excited. The result did not disappoint.
    However, building off of this style, snare and hi hat production really shines for some of these producers, especially Halogenix. If there was a Stranjah tutorial about making crisp snares, I would like that very much. Maybe a top 10 principles of making quality snares? EQ, Comp, modulation, etc.
    Great channel, great videos. I especially like the measured and concise narration. Elementary without being condescending.

    Great job again homie. Delving into different sub-genres/styles of drum and bass with these tutorials is golden. Being able to understand,appreciate,and flex each unique soundscape is something newer and veteran producers alike should sharpen their swords up and practice. Repertoire fam. Only being limited by your imagination and drive and aware of as many different forms of electronic music makes for a well rounded multi faceted artist. Drum and bass in particular seems to lend from/be inspired by just about every genre out there if your listening to the full spectrum it's apparent

    • @STRANJAH

      I actually copied that introduced pad sound and changed it to a deeper subby version of the pad and put it underneath it. worked fine :) then i started to change the harmonics of the pad like playing different chords - i did not use a chord trigger something to progress the pad.

    "Exploring this deeper sound." What? Liquid has been around for 20+ years. You could argue that LTJ pioneered the style back in the 90s. Pretty much all of Hospital Records is liquid and has been since they were founded. Some of my favorites: Dawn Wall, Pola & Bryson, Brooks Brothers, Sub Focus, High Contrast, Logistics, Camo & Krooked, etc. etc.
