This Lofi Setup Always Blows My Mind
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- its so nice to play with this setup!
one pocket operator is used only for drums and bass
- the other one for (chopped) samples
- a bit of mediocre scratching with the sc500 turntable on top
- mixing the ingredients with the bastl dude mini mixer and voilà!
you got a lofi cake!
EDIT: because so many people are curious, here is the detailed list of what you see in the video
and what sample i used:
2x pocket operators, the k.o! (the sampler) in the 33 and the 133 version ("og" and "streetfighter")
the cases for them are by beatmakersboutique
bastl instruments dude (with a bunch of stickers on it) - the little mixer. its now discontinued, but the new model is available and its called "bestie" by bastl instruments
and finally - THE TURNTABLE: its a sc500 by the small germany company portablismgear. they build a slightly bigger version, the sc1000.
one person asked, so i share it with out: its weight is 198.2 gramm
the sample you hear is, i think (!!!), from a old samplepack called "loops from 84'" i had on my harddrive flying around (www.msxaudio.c...) i am not sure if its on the first or second volume, but i am pretty sure its on them.

I’m grateful to the algorithm serving me this 🙏
Amen
Seems like the algo is REALLY pushing it.😅
@@derbymachtsachenHow much does this shit cost?
@@drawincode1800
sc500 (turntable) = 240€,
pocket operator k.o.! = 90€
bastl dude mixer = 100€
Even the cable placement is pleasing lol, cool
the Details matter ;)
That 8bit like arp sound is amazing.
It's never the tools....
Yup. I wouldn't even know where to start. Something like this is basically magic to me
@@jostafro4967 i highly can recommend to get the koala sampler app. get all the upgrades you have to pay for, the samurai and the mixer upgrade - its with all maybe about 10~15 dollar? max(?) its really _dead cheap_ in comparison to what it can do. its just *bonkers* how powerful this is. you can just throw away most of the hardware samplers that cost 300-500 dollar. its mad. i even bought myself a tablet for it, because its more comfortable to use with a bigger surface. and even with this: its cheap! the flip sampler by andrew huang is also nice and worth to check out - costs about 10 bucks(?) - check out youtube tutorials, there are plenty and then just start. there is no wrong and everybody started somewhere - but with this devices you already got a _really_ powerful tool even pros like to use - for the price of a few cups of coffee basically.
ikr? sit me in front of these thing and a week later it's gonna not even sound close to this good
That may be the hardest comment
@@jostafro4967 especially the record scratches. Thats something ive never been able to wrap my head around lol
One of the dopest beats I heard in a while! Great job
thank you!
Reminiscent of MF Doom beats! Good stuff.
@@jalander8817 oh shit you are right
same.. i love this
Nice 🙏🏻
We need more of this in hip hop!! Outstanding work.
(ノ ◑‿◑)ノ thank you very much!
The vibes are strong with this one
Had to come back and leave another comment on this one.
This just goes to show that the magic of music can come from any source, even two school calculators and a small hot plate. This small loop contains the essence of musical genius. Simple but rich with spirit.
very kind words, thank you!
@@derbymachtsachen I hear the essence of dilla/doom…two absolute geniuses. Good shit my guy keep creating.
youtube is throwing the comments around for me. what a joy. answering and keeping up nicely is a mess. i think i got you pal, or maybe not. confusing times. if you want, show me now your fav youtube video (edit: cats are always good), i will check it out - have a great weekend!
Bro I’m dumb. RUclips tagged me for no reason, so I thought your reply about electric guitars was for me 🤡 Than I thought boombox for 95€ was like sarcasm lol. Didn’t mean to be aggressive for no reason 🤝
@@LarsHost
Sounds something like Alchemist .. love it
Thanks!
But better tbh
@@forevershampoo no, but you cant compare artists anyway
@@kryspy5160 LoL When you started by saying "No", that was comparing the artists haha
@@R.L._Stine_88 tru that lol
Oh my God, at first I was like "Look, someone is making music with calculators" but after watching the video and listening to the beat I realized it's just magic, no calculators. 🙏
Glad you liked it!
oh... I was so subtracted I didn't notice. :)
This was sick. Disappointed when I couldn’t find you & this song on Spotify! You should start uploading your music there as you’ve got a unique vibe man. I’d listen to some lofi like this on repeat
Its difficult... I know Spotify is probably nowadays the place to be, but i try to stay away from it because its not really fair to the artists and mostly a money laundering Organization in my experience.
@@derbymachtsachen+1 sell stuff yourself - fk spotify
Bandcamp
Thats hard but the only acceptable way atm. I am atm checking out distrokid, but still not sure...
Das hängt sich hart rein. Ich wünschte es gäbe einen ganzen Song oder längeres Mix. Das beste Stück Musik, dass ich seit langem gehört hab.
vielen Dank!
It also blows my mind that such a tiny setup costs like $800+
Absolute insanity.
it blows my mind how you came up with this number? a pocket Operator is about 90€, the turntable about 240€
so. Yeah. what does a sp404 cost? you know how much they charge for the Op-1 field? 😂
the pocket Operators, the bastl dude mixer and even the sc500 turntable are really cheap. if you want to pour more money into it, like me, buy some nice cases for them etc but they will also not break the Bank.
@@derbymachtsachen Haha, maybe it's just the terrible tax in my country then. A single Pocket Operator is like $200 for me.
holy cow. that is much. did you ever tried out the Koala Sampler App? with All in App Updates/upgrades its maybe about 15€/$? its incredible powerful
I was scrolling through the comments to figure out the approx. price as well 😅
But if the taxes are so fucked up, then what is the situation on the used market? (I expect in my case the delivery prices will be the "show stoppers"...)
if you are interested, just write portablismgear, i am not aware about the prices of a smal package to the united states(?) - they other way around, from the states to europe, its a bit expensive, i have to say - all the po cases i have to import and the people working at customs wanna get their $$$ too. :/
but its still worth it, in my opinion. i even got a second unit a few weeks ago, just because i _had_ to own a backup of this beauty....
I love it every time small gadgets make a big difference
This was better than I expected and I expected it to be amazing
Thank you!
that low synth sounds so cool
yo this is criminally underviewed gratz on the sick beat
>Seriously man. It's just true how hypnoticand euphoric this beat is. Every sound is perfect and those word samples even your scratching and all on these pocket devices. This is so easy to rap on just from the feeling you get from listening to it even if you're not a rapper. This is a beat that makes you feel like rapping or singing. Absolutely insane. Me admitting this being a producer myself. This is what technology was made for. People like you man. Look at what you've done and can create with the technology available to you. I can only hope to work with you one day.
>Not only that, you did it LIVE.
@@Processor609 i really just put this together on the fly, its crazy how this blew up, hahahaha
God damn this is a banger. Man blowing some heavy clouds too
Thanks :)
That beat is sick! Don't think I've heard a Pocket Operator sound like that =D
There are true masters on this device who can do things with it that I can only dream of
People keep think you need a big ass setup MPC’s Maschine and here we have a simple setup that BANGZ!!!!!!🎉🎉🎉
Some of the best music in the world has been made with stanky ass laptop and a pirated copy of FL studio..
This setup is roughly $1,000
@@NnTFBAis it? the pocket operators are quite cheap, I’m looking a 2nd hand one for less than 50 quid. What other gear is he using here? I can’t identify any by sight.
@@PM-xu2nqjust did research…. Turntable is around 240 the po series is 99 each excluding the cases mixer is around 200 roughly. Looking into getting this setup myself.
@@davidchavarria seems like a great kit!
Jesus man look at this! This great! It’s not just the set up though it’s how you’re using it! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
This is on the level of when you see a commercial that has a few seconds of a crazy god mode beat, or an IG reel that does - and you can never find it our dl it because its not available. Instant classic and rare
wow, thank you for the kind words!
Nah the beat drop and synth timing is just perfection! Absolute masterpiece😤😤
Thank you very much!
i need this at least 4min maybe around 20 seconds long please and thank you! absolutely beautiful one
hahaha
Nice Dj Shadow vibes 👍👍
Shadow? not really more like RjDtwo or Madlib. You should listen to more Hip Hop. 😮
@@Loveisthylaw777I was so hooked on deadringer back in high school. Rarely listen to music now. What genre would this be described as?
I think shadow is still a fair comparison too @@Loveisthylaw777
It's like a Wu Tang beat made love to a SID chip and 9 months later this pops out.
100% subbing my dude, keep busting out those tasty jams.
Thank you very much!
Brilliant arrangement and brilliant track. The world needs this type of creations.
Sounds fitting for MF DOOM
or Hexstatic
RIGHT ABOVE MY GOVERNMENT; DUMILE
Na it doesn't.. this sounds more like a del tha funkee homosapien type beat imo or killer Mike
The beat is 🔥
Yo. I keep coming back to this video, that watery sample is sick. Legit one of my favorite beats of all time :D
holy cow, thank you!
0:08 wow ive seen one of these guys on a very intense trip.... that's the closest representation to one ive seen done other than what ive drawn. Very cool
That tiny jogwheel is killer 👌👌👌
it is! its such a nice gadget in the studio, i love it!
@@derbymachtsachen what is it? This is too cool!
@@asbjrnguldager8917sc500 scratch
@@derbymachtsachen keen to know exactly what this is also. I mean “take my money”
the sc500 by portablismgear!
Algorithm put you in my feed just now and I love it! More of this. I bet you're going to blow up soon
would be cool, i am curious what will happen
yo could you do a tutorial for all this? seems pretty simple but i’d love to see exactly what went into this
Yeah, i am planing to make some tutorials!
This flavour is extremely potent
Thank you very much!
Getting some serious Thomas Dolby meets War of the world vibes. Me likey.
Amazing pocket setUP, love it!
Thanks!
Trying to get this on MPC One. Can't get the same flavor. You're having far more fun on a really affordable setup. Impressed.
Check out the Koala Sampler App, its just bonkers how much fun you can have without this super cheap app! i am not using ableton or any other device atm. Aber its crazy how powerful it is with All Updates (Samurai and mixer)
@@derbymachtsachen I got that on my phone. Peeps get so mad at mem when I capture them and turn them into drum parts. LOL. That is by far the best app for messing around. The live effects are mad! Only thing that ticks me off is no way to sample direct from youtube into app! At least not on Android. Haven't tried it on iPad. Didn't want to purchase it again for different platform unless it had some better feature set. Works perfect on my Galaxy S22 Ultra.
@@Curious_Skeptic i´ll use just another device, like my smartphone and sample youtube on my tablet - that i only bought for koala (and the flip) sampler app(s).
or just download the mp3 of the youtubeclips, thats the way i did most of the time, got myself this way a nice library collected
That hits the soul
Strong Deltron 3030 vibes
Keep coming back to this song. It’s really good.
thank you very much!
Epic! Very creative live act and excellent sound!
Thanks!
While the music itself is not my cup of tea, I like the setup.
And what I like even more is that you took the time to provide all the information on the process and used gear.
Appreciated!
I'm still bumping game ost's from the 8bit and 16bit era.
Thats some good stuff!
This slaps! Love it. Love the set up as well.
Thank you!
This is really fantastic! My only gripe with the Po 33s that keeps it from being my perfect portable sampler is I wish it could store more than 16 patterns. The midi data really doesn't take up that much space, 8 dunno why they couldn't implement banks of note data. I can deal with the 40 sec and 4 voice limitations and the mono, but I can't seem to squeeze out more than a 2 minute track without it getting repetitive. Love what you did within those limitations though.
by the time i found out about the Koala Sampler App and the pocket Operator has been a bit dusty by the time. Will make Videos about it, its really great. get all the Updates, cost maybe below 10$ and its just a powerhouse!
@@derbymachtsachen koala sampler is a work of art. It ended up being my gateway drug to getting the sp404 and changing my workflow forever 😉. If elf audio ever made some kind of a hardware sampler I'd be all over it like white on rice. Brilliant app.
the KO 33 may be what youre looking for now lol
@@bornofisais8532 the new ko II? Yeah I know exactly what you mean. If that thing existed before I got knee deep in sp404 stuff, I'd have been all over it. Alas, I need any excuse I can use to avoid buying new gear, especially something that overlaps do much with what I have. It's a good looking sampler though and the temptation is strong.
@@GeorgeL909 i bought one, should arrive in a few days, but i heard a lot of problems with the fader, seems it is/has a faulty design. that would be really not-so-very-cool. :/ hope for the best...
I need to buy a few of these lmao.
I've been looking for something small and easily portable to make that scratching sound effect during shows that wasn't an actual direct drive and vinyl- and that's EXACTLY the type of thing I want.
thats why i love this little thing so much.
I saw these videos back in December and I immediately searched about synths and samplers. I am starting now my journey with them, I got the smpltrek and an akai mpk mini.
Thank you and thanks to the RUclips algorithm for this!
wow, thats cool! i can by the time highly recommend the Koala Sampler App btw its crazy how much fun for such little money is possible!
true lo fi. god bless
Crazy yo I like the set up and the beat is 🧨
Thanks!
that mini turntable looks sick
It is!
sensational. smoking weed is so important when working with pocket operators
an old master showed me this trick
Damn this is sick, fire beat btw
Thanks!
Dude this is so damn sick
Thanks!
So so sick. I need daily uploads from you, Derby. God bless
Thanks man! there will be a big new episode of smol beats soon!
Not sure what I'm watching, but it sounds dope as f@k
Wirklich sehr chillig
I need this in my spotify 😮
I try to stay away from it. I dont use it also. I think it has done no benefit to the Art(ists)
in the same way I want to download this song I need this a lot in my daily life
Just get a RUclips downloader and rip it :)
@@derbymachtsachen thanks bro
What a underwatery floating in space typa vibe man that is hot 🔥🔥🔥🔥
More with this set up please man. Shit brought me to a familiar vibe that melts all the BS of the day away. Good on you brother.
Thanks for the kind words, i am trying to upload more, real life is a struggle atm :/
@@derbymachtsachen 💯%
Just wanted to add my voice to the chorus. This just works so well.
That sc500 is Fresh yo 😎 I'm definitely going to get one in the future 4 my bro so he can practice on his wicky wicky wacks, awesome demo! Awesome video! 😎👍
Good luck, they are, sadly, a bit hard to get because its only one dude making them and the demand is very high
@@derbymachtsachen yeah I was checking that out. Reverb gets them sold out My brother's starting to get into this type of music and the closest thing I can get is Reloop SPIN which I'm in the waiting list for. Very cool video man again 😎
I have a spin too but atm i am using my modded numark pt 01 more. Its a cool little thingie
All it needs is a lyricist that can shred on the ole guitfiddle
Absolutely sick. I might order all of that gear and start mixing my own tunes dude.
I highly recommend to get the Koala Sampler App with all Upgrades. Its maybe around 10$ but its soooooo powerful. Check some Videos, its just great.
This is a madlib level beat, insane
that's very nice of you! But I'm a student - there are real masters of this device out there
The puff of smoke at 0:19 is so real
special fx
Hands down thanks for share
you are welcome, Thanks for checking it out!
Smoking to dis from the bushlands
Wow! You just went mad on this one! It was live or die and you broke the sound limitations!
I need an hour long edit of this!!!! Please!!!
I’d like to find this on Spotify or something, I keep coming back to listen to it
i try to avoid Spotify because its not a good place for artists. more for money laundering.
That was super fresh! What a dope beat!!! 🔥🔥🔥
I have no idea what those machines do but I am enjoying every moment of this.
the machines that do the work are pocket operators by teenage engineering, very, VERY affordable little portable sampling machines. you can do really nice stuff with it. the other thing is a little turntable, for obvious bad scratching and the other thing is a little mixer, to put the sound of the samplers and the turntable to one signal, so i can record it 🙂
@@derbymachtsachen hell yeah. 💪
Smoke weed don't vape 😁 nice tunes btw 🙌💚
i actually vape my weed - what now?
@@derbymachtsachen hmmm, I'll allow it lol 💚
This video is everything!
Its just a little thing that blew up
This is great, wish I knew how to get started down this path
whats the problem? with what do you struggle?
i am planing on a video/serie to teach people how this works from the scratch (pun intended)
@@derbymachtsachen not op, but I struggle finding the space between composition and live performance.
@@derbymachtsachen just knowing how to start with both what equipment and using it
i hope to put up a Video exactly about this soon
Music that fits the tangled mess of my brain. It tickles a deep cord of a nostalgic-esk feeling. Like a lost memory that you can only pick up with one sense…
One of the heaviest sets around
and the smooollest.

I keep coming back to this…damn it’s so good
Wow, Thanks!?!

The algorithm was spot on with this one.

Has a Dj Nappa from Phi Life Cypher vibe. Mad talent sir
Never heard from this Person, Thanks, will check it out!
@@derbymachtsachen I’ll think you’ll like the group. Herbaholics is a great example of the producers ability
Yeah but can I have a 8 hour version of this?

GLORIOUS!
Thank you very much!
Adult swim bump vibes
Wow, love this.
Thanks!
amazing, and holy shit i just went down a rabbit hole looking at the scratch turntable, might have to build one
if you can build your own you have quite some skills!?! wow!
@@derbymachtsachen it's open source! the designer is a legend for putting it online and the actual build looks straightforward enough. but sourcing all the parts is a bit of a mission..
@@OIP_1 oh really?! thats cool! So who is the Person who made it /put it online?
Watching much music gear vids made youtube serve me this gem! Awesome and cute setup man! Never seen those skins for them pocket operators before. Makes me want a couple of 'em now. And have NEVER stumbled across that cool turntable. It looked a bit like that recorder thingie that TE released but with the fader and small buttons it didn't match up. Damn cool thing. I learnt dj'in back in the day BEFORE the first Denon DN 2000F was released so vinyl DJ over here and that cute thing really tickled my fancy. I drooled until I saw the price tag on them and then realized I'd better start using all the music gear I have accumulated before buying yet another thing that will gather dust...
Them: "What're you listening to?"
Me: "Innovation"
Bro is absolutely cooking. I'll never talk bad about the algorithm again 🙏🙏
Damn I got really excited about that mini turntable, I've been missing being able to scratch on my tracks so I've been looking at like the low end, I saw the size of that thing thinking it'd be like 40-50$, they want more for that then some mid range decks, fuckin wild lol.
its made by a small company with just a few persons and the device is, since years, in a kind of beta-state, but its works just like a champ. i don't know about any device like this, the smallest "real" turntables, with a bunch of nice "real vinyls" costs nearly the same - but its big and clunky, even the little turntables. but this thing - man! you just put it in your bag and scratch everywhere! on a plane, waiting somewhere, in the car, at work, outside.... its in terms of cost/value, for me, one of the best device purchases i ever did. i can recommend it very much to anybody missing nice scratches as a cherry on top on their tracks. i tried it before with some freakish ableton-workaround, but there was always the feeling that its programmed, synced and not "real" and with the feeling of manipulating the sound with your fingers.
Hey man what is it called????@@derbymachtsachen
@@fooseball131 portablismgear just google it, they have a nice website
I was actually surprised at the reasonable price. Was imaging something like the Teenage engineering Field recorder at $1500 ish.
many people complain about the price....:/ but ppl complain about everything, sadly.
i think its really okay, for a small Company and what it offers. to me there is no better/cheaper solution
For some reason this stays in my feed and im glad as i click it nearly every day!
I am happy if it entertains you well!
Whats that little turntable device? I NEED
this is the sc500, by the german Company portablismgear - they have also a Model thats slightly bigger, the sc1000! lovely device! not cheap and still in beta Stadium but absolute Solid and a fountain of Joy
めっちゃカッコいい…❤
Glad there were no raw jazz chords over a beat. Wish I could tell the casual Lo Fi producers that if there are no samples you better be a freaking maestro or bring vocal talent.
How much in total?
I wanna know this as well!
wow, thank you, i just listened to it 3 times in a row, everything is so chill, makes me feel like listening to some old tapes of wax tailor, have some nujabes vibes too, congrats for making this.
Never heard about wax tailor. Love those recommendations, thank you!
@@derbymachtsachen you must have heard que sera from wax tailor without knowing it was from him ) he is a a real good dj from france, he was part of pioneers of popular electronic music in the early 90's with daft punk. Nujabes for me was the best, he probably inspired many people with his beats and multiple style.
I really live under a Rock and like a lot of genres. Will check it out, Thanks!
Someone needs to remix an MF DOOM song with this over it
happy to hear it!
