- In this episode of KRPC, Kahn adds more to the riddim section, shows how he re-worked the skank guitar, the bubble organ, adds a percussive organ, and "background" organ.
Also covered within this episode is an an in-depth look at the drum fills Kahn added, including the timbale used which is featured in the "Cuba" plugin by Native Instruments. Kahn then shows off his 4-part horn section using "Session Horns Pro" also by NI.
To finish it off, Kahn records some live tambourine, cabasa, vibra slap, and flex-a-tone, then he shows how to EQ and compress each track to fit in the mix.
Stay tuned for next episode where we introduce Kapena Mokiao's smooth vocals!!

This sounds amazing man...Greggory Issacs would have been proud to sing over it :)
Ahh, thanks for the compliment! That would've been awesome!!
These videos are great. Thanks so much for taking the time to share detailed information about your process and sound design. This is by far the most in depth and helpful reggae production tutorial I've ever seen. I've found so much information that I've always wished I could find right here!
emilio delpozo wow, I am really glad you enjoyed this series so much... At times I thought I went into too much depth and rambled on... Anyway thanks for the positivity.
How I wish he listed all the plugins he used in this one.
But, it's been 6 years so I cannot ask for much!
This is amazing stuff. Sounds fantastic, the level of work, attention to detail, sense of groove, dedication and ability to craft the sound creatively and so precisely is pretty amazing. Thanks for the master class. You genuinely seem to enjoy creating good music and your enthusiasm to shows in explaining your composition, production and arrangement techniques. I never realized how carefully crafted and textured Reggae is, it reminds me of old Santana productions like “Dance Sister Dance”.
Rewatching all your vids. Got me laughing out loud when you said something about your timing and not being a drummer. Look at you now :o!!!
This reggae rhythm is magnificent, i send you greetings from jamaica
Many thanks!!
AMAZING, thank you so much for these authentic reggae tutorials!
Thank you Lil Sokz, I really wanted to spread my knowledge of reggae. I feel like I've learned so much from RUclips as far as mixing techniques, so I thought it would be nice to give back - but with a reggae twist!
+DM Kahn amen, keep up the good vibes!
Dennis brown, gregory isaacs and john holt would have been so pleased to record a song on this reggae rhythm
just from the intro I know this is great
Nice man ..real nice
🙌🙌
This is so helpfull. Canwt wait to start my ney raggae project.
Hey MR Kahn! Good to find a vid of you! Great stuff here. I've uploaded a video of a new roots tune. I've left out the Session Horns, but the Native Instruments are amazing! I'd like to know your opinion. I'm going to check out the rest of your series :). Big ups from Tweante in the Netherlands!
Brilliant and inspiring. Thank you for sharing all your expertise.
Dude its crazy I made a song with literally a super super super basically almost the same bass lick haha dayum
This is epic jam!!! Mikey Dread meets Gregory Isaacs .. I really dig this track... good work
Andy Bowlin thanks man! I am humbled by your words... I just try to recreate that golden era! Have a blessed day
DM Kahn you do it well!! Good stuff... thanks for making good reggae! Not enough of this style being made anymore... Need more old Freddie Mcgregor, Barrington Levy style Reggae out there! Do you have any tracks on I tunes? Or just sound cloud? Thanks
yo man, I love your transparency in the production, thanks! Definitely hits like a good OG reggae tune. good work.
Beautiful arrangement !
Thank you very much Gianfranco! Glad you enjoyed the vibes
Massive stuff. This is real roots
Jay Bee thanks Jay!! Big up for the comment
Sorry I'm late! How do you get the bass so deep, I've tried so so many time.
Best, Quentin
It starts with a good bass guitar I think… but certainly EQ can get you there if your bass isn’t very deep to begin with.
Tufffffff!!!! Drums are next level
Eyes red👀
Does anyone know what that high pitch percussion instrument is you can bend to pitch up? I've heard that in so many things and it's the first time i see it!
It’s called a flexatone, I have one and use it here and there!

You're welcome my friend!
Hello. Super Nice song.What plug in of Komplete are you use? What version of Komplete.
Thanks Jean! I'm using Session Horns, Vintage Organs, and Cuba plugin (for the piano and timbale) from Native Instruments. I don't have the Komplete plugin bundle, I bought those plugins on the 50% off sale about a year or so ago. Hope this helps. Bless
Nice groove
Thanks Shabach! It's all about the groove!!
Thank you Dub Master. Are these videos available for download? I would be willing to donate something for a DL
Please send your email address to me at thekahn@gmail.com. We can work something out! Bless
Brooooo this is dope
Your the man!
Thanks for checkin' out the vids Nick :)
if you use a 7th chord in the progression for example on the piano, do you play the 7th on the guitar or organ, or just the standard major or minor variation?
Gunshow Riddims Productions bless up and thanks for the question. The minimum you need to have the seventh on is the piano, but you can definitely play it on the guitar and organ. I wouldn't do it on the bubble organ though, usually it gets muddy if you use more than two notes (root and third) on the bubble. Hope this helps! You don't have to if you don't want to on the guitar, but it doesn't hurt!
Who is your favourite reggae artist?
I have many favorites! A few top ones are Gregory Isaacs, Johnny Osbourne, Aswad, of course Bob, Tosh & Bunny, Dennis Brown, Steel Pulse, Linval Thompson, Martin Campbell, the list goes on and on.... Haha
what is the name of the drums ??
My own sample pack
You are dope.
Thank you CK! And thanks for chuning in! haha
I don't have three hands..:)
right, as a keyboard player I'm like damm playing this live will need at least two keysies maybe three haha still sounds epic though

Yow what Yu use Fi drums
Check out episode 1, I explain my drums in better detail than in this video. There's a link in ep 1's description where you can find some free drum samples. Bless
Ok Kool
Hey Yu caan send Mi a sample of your hat and snare
Bless up Dilla. I am sorry, but I do not give away my samples. I do encourage you to find some of your own online, or if you can sample your own real drums that works really well too. Google "loops de la creme" ...that's somewhere you can find good inexpensive drum samples. I have purchased some snare and Tom sounds that I currently use from there. Hope this helps. Cheers
Lol I like di snare and hat that yu use
One thumbs down on every video. Must be an ex girlfriend.
Jason Holmes Lol! Haters gonna hate. Probably some producer dude who is pissed off that I'm telling all the secrets. Cheers bro glad you dig the vids
Was thinking same thing
