I was trying to duplicate this drum track at home and I realized that, after recording the drums, the pattern it was working so well, except for something on the background (like a continuous sub bass click, you can hear it all the song) that was keeping me away from replicating it in a exact way. Well, I don't know if anyone is going to investigate to this level this track, but I just put a delay on the Bass Drum on 8ths, being careful with the Dry/Wet mix and sounds exactly the same. Amazing drum track!
It actually is a standard patch from the DX7 called B.DRUM-SNARE from ROM 2B which plays an eighth note pattern. It is available on free DX7 emulation Dexed

@@AdrianDerBitschubser no real drums - 4 drum patterns overlayed from the Linn drum and then a small bit of DX-7 percussive sounds ( at 2.16 ) ( paul programmed some of the drum pattern )
@@mags14570 there are Original Stems floating around in the Internet and I'm still convinced that there real drums in the mix. And also I think that the base pattern is not a LinnDrum but a Roland TR-707.
I love that the pattern breathes with the song, like a live drummer. Definitely one of the best 80s songs recorded with a drum machine.
one of the best produced and programmed Pop Song ever.And we still can learn from it.
this is some of the dopest drum programming. damn!
I always loved when the beat changes tempo @1:06
its not a tempo change, its just a half time feel
It's not a temporary change, the snare just shifts from beat 2 and 4 to beat 3
you mean a beat breakdown
holy shit are those 3 different synth kicks haha goddamn
the complexity is not appreciated
GGBDK i agree
It sounds like one kick is playing eighth notes non-stop the entire song.
@@zakizdaman why not?
@@johnp82 these songs are bangers because all the work that goes into them, the work put in isnt directly appreciated

Yes there is a second kick-like pattern on the 8th notes. However, I believe it is a processed tom or snare sound rather than an actual kick.

@@localtrack1966 Interesting. I just got Dexed so will have a look.
Man, this is my first song that I've learned on the piano :D!
It happened today at 2 AM.
Thanks for the drums!

Love it ❤️🔥 forever💯
💖💖💖💖🌹🌹🌹🥰🥰🥰

Do you hear the high sub bass drum ?
[Verse 1]
We're talking away
I don't know what I'm to say
I'll say it anyway
Today's another day to find you
Shying away
I'll be coming for your love, okay?
[Chorus]
Take on me (Take on me)
Take me on (Take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day or two
[Verse 2]
So needless to say
I'm odds and ends
But I'll be stumbling away
Slowly learning that life is okay
Say after me
It's no better to be safe than sorry
[Chorus]
Take on me (Take on me)
Take me on (Take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day or two
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Oh, things that you say
Is it a life or just to play my worries away?
You're all the things I've got to remember
You're shying away
I'll be coming for you anyway
[Outro]
Take on me (Take on me)
Take me on (Take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day
Take on me (Take on me)
Take me on (Take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day
IS IT LOVE OR JUST TO PLAY MY WORRIES AWAY - people always get this wrong
Cool! 🥁❤
Was this done with the LM-1?
Hi - if you mean drum machine - it was Linn drums
Yes, I think so. But then also overdubbed with some real drums.

Hi. What is the bpm of this track?
About 169.5 bpm.
hey bro i can use this for a cover?
Hi, i think that you can
A bit late, but I'd assume you could as long as you don't monetize it.
Strange recording, the BPM varies during the song. It can't be a drum machine, then it should be a fixed stabel BPM
Not necessarily. You can map out drum tempo along the length of the song in a drum machine...most songs speed up a little to give it an extra push
It’s common that drum machines from that time weren’t quite stable in terms of keeping the exact BPM like DAWs do today - a natural drift, so to say.
Linn drum was used for this song
How does the BPM vary? There are periods of "half time", but that is not exactly the same as changing the BPM.
1st
so?
Sorry no good;,,,,,
Snap chap sound where??
