Speechless, perfect use of whatever you got under your hands, yet good sounding and unpredictable.
Thanks for this.
Thanks sir ;-)
I’ve been listening to you for years and I never knew you did tutorials! God bless that you provide this content for free. It’s inspiring me to take producing more seriously. (Aka making more than an 8 bar loop and leaving the WIP to die LMAO)
Lots of love from a long time fan
Many thanks for the kind words ;-)
Absolute madman
Thanks man, this was amazing, I've wanted to see a live setup this detailed for a long time
that Midi Fighter is crazy fun, appreciate the close-up here
God tier breaks
Always a great time with stazma, thanks for this it has helped me alot to understand the live side of ableton.
Thanks, really inspiring setup
Wow.... Simply, humbly, respect! Nice set up, and definitely amazing vibe!
Exactly the sorta thing I needed, amazing as always Stazma!! Been creatimg live jungle performances using launchpad and a mixer and needed ways to make it more breakcore-y/interesting you're approach is exciting ✌
Glad I could help!
Outstanding work as always Julien!!! Thank you so much for this. It filled in quite a few gaps in my understanding. One question and one suggestion. Question, why quantisation of 1/4 for one and 1/8 for the other? Suggestion, as a follow up it would be great to see a video where you discuss how to set about structuring the live set you demonstrate here. For me it is a challenge to figure out how to set up a Live set that reflects the various lifecycle phases of a performance, and also how to make a set that is sophisticated like yours but not cluttered. It is a nightmare to have to page through a set when there is a lot going on in it and there must be a strategy or something for thinking about, designing and implementing a set that facilitates building up song structures and performance phases. Anyway, such are my thoughts. And again many thanks for your outstanding contributions to the community!!!
P.S., I don't know where the name @BigBandFanMan comes from. I didn't set it. It's actually Len, the Irish guy!!! Have a great weekend!
Hey Len! I did it actually as a follow up to the first old version of this tutorial. You can watch it here:

Brilliant. Thank you!
Wow 🤩 my new wet dream Is to do some noisepunk stuff with you ,my friend . Very cool setup 💪
je n'étais jamais tombé sur cette vidéo , excellent :) ton workflow est vraiment cool ;) par contre le time stretch sur le general je n'ai pas capté la technique. en tout cas big up
A master at work
Thank you for the video, very inspiring :-)
You're welcome ;-)
Glitch Fest 🎉 great work !!!
Thanks !
One of the best
great material, thanks for the explanation, how Your breakskiller setup works:)
Triton was one of the two tracks that got me through lockdown with my mental health in tact. The other one was Dragonball Durag by Thundercat. That clip
Woop woop! Glad you like those!
I wish you could still get Livid Block controllers, the aesthetic and layout is so unique and cool.
Indeed! Quite sad they don't exist anymore. Try to find a second hand one, these are usualy pretty cheap now.
Those 165.40 and 171.30 BPM are intense
This seem to confuse people all the time but it’s just that I set my tempo via tap tempo most of the time hahaha
Dream festival line up for me would b you, cdr, kid606, shitmat, mochipet. You’re one of my faves
This has inspired me ❤
That's great!
Thanks. Good video
Dude that's bonkers 🤟🤟🤟
pretty vsnares-esque
Too 4/4 for Aaron
@@Stazma everything is 4/4 if you believe in yourself
@@andmoreagain This would make a great t-shirt hahaha
YES!!! YEEEEEESSSSSS!!!
Badass man
Firee!!
Un sacré chantier haha ! Mais du coup apres cette superbe video, ça me donne envie d'acheter un midi fighter pour gerer les fx de mon akai force (ce qui revient a peu pres à ton livid block si j'ai bien compris). Mais ça doit pas etre si simple à configurer... En tout cas merci pour ces conseils :)
good lord
Hahaha
Wow impressive job! small question: where are hidden de 16 additionals breakbeats? are they in a drum rack on your fifth track and you use the crossfade to go from track 4 to 5? Is that the trick ?
They are clips on a audio track and yes I use the corssfade to go from the main playing breakeat to the one controlled by the Midi Fighter.
wow
Sick! Wondering if I could use a Push 2 to do similar things?
For the gros thing for sure, tho you might still need another pad type controler to handle what I’m doing with the Midi Fighter
@@Stazma before I bought the Push 2, was considering a launch pad, would that be something I could use together with push 2?
@@brainbox9219yes indeed
Skillz ❤🤘
any dblue time stretch vst alternative you recommended? can't find the original one
You can find it here: illformed.org/
It's in the "Free Windows VST Plugins" pack on the main page.
Otherwise no I havn't found any proper alternative that I liked but I havn't looked much as I have this hehehe.
Woooowwww!!
this video convinced me to use a daw. i really tried my best to use only eurorack but in the end i find it too slow for this kind of music. techno-yes, more or less but for comfortably doing breaks you just don't have the capability to adjust cables this fast. or at least i don't have it. and it gets on your nerves fast. this constant thinking...
can i ask you - since now i'm a newbie again- is there a unit that is capable of doing what the block does that you could recommend?
thanks mate
Hey there! For the grid part you can use any version of the Launchpad, you just loose the faders and knobs but that can be done by another controller.
@@Stazma thanks man. It looks like a good choice versus the push which seems a bit overloaded.
Btw i looked up your album on tidal. Shreds! Anything new coming out soon?
@@averagepainter I should have a new one coming soon! But check Bandcamp if you want to find most of what I did ;-)
I also moved from eurroack to a DAW (haven't posted anything on YT yet). Worlds apart, the hardware just holds you back when trying to make breakcore/jungle stuff. I got an ES-9 and might try to incorporate some modules into live performance, like the nebulae, but for now, Ableton for the win.
Do you have any advice for how I could achieve something like this on a broke teenager budget? My audio equipment currently consists of a midi keyboard, a DJ controller, and Reaper.
The only mandatory thing here is Ableton I think, unless there’s been someone designing a clip launching matrix for Reaper.
You could use the dj controller to scroll through the scene and map drum breaks to the keys of you keyboard (Rotator, Electric Kettle and myself had similar setups in the past)
@@Stazma Thank you!! I'm looking in to 𝔞𝔠𝔮𝔲𝔦𝔯𝔦𝔫𝔤 Ableton now!
Dude! first of this is Im teaching myself music for about 2 years. What scale are you staying in? My brain goes blues every time but that sounds too happy. Your Midifighter as usb effects pedel... LOVE it! ( @10:00 pauses to just listen to you jam as I type lol) Love it bro.
Hey there Joshua! Glad you lide the video ;-) What do you mean about scale here ?
@@Stazma like 1-7-1-5 or 1-12-1-7 Breakcore sounds like it exponentially goes up from the root like blues with more steps. lots of octive jumping.
My talent is finger drumming. All I come out with is live finger drumming jungle. I having a hard time melodically with jungle/breakcore/drum and bass.
@@JoshuaFricke that’s what I thought but wasn’t sure hehehe. Most of the time I use the Locrian mode or either melodic or harmonic minor scale. I also like to play around with Japanese pentatonic, like Hirajochi, Kumoi and other like this. Then I just go by ear.
@@Stazma I try SOOOO hard NOT to play Japanese Pent lmao. I love it too much. Thanks for the tip. Im on the right path then. tySm! Keep up the Awesome all around content.
I would like to know why you decided to choose a Livid block instead of a Akai APC instead .
The APC had too many controls I would have not used, the launchpad no knobs, the block was the perfect in between
Bisous Julien !!! ^^
that many effects and you never have cpu problems?
It's not that much in the end but yeah I'm mostly around 30% of usage of my CPU on a four years old laptop.
@@Stazmainteresting. The idea of doing this kind of live set up always scared me because of this reason. and do you use any bus/master compression inside the computer, if I may ask?
@@personnealienee Yes there's a parralel compressor on the master to tie everything together + a limiter to get a bit more output level if needed.
Is it possible to do this with APC40?
Most probably yes as it work with the same grid concept.
You are realy f..... crazy ....!!! Of course in the best sense of the word! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE PRECISE IN-DEPTH EXPLORATION WAYS INTO BREAKCORE CREATION... MFX-NOISZLAB.
