Lemon D Drums and Breaks
Added 2024-07-05 17:34:05 +0000 UTCYo hope everyone is pumped for the weekend! I've got some heavy handed drums & breaks processing for you in this one. 🥷
Dillinja and Lemon D are two legends of the DnB & Jungle scene and have some absolute slammers between them which still tear up raves today. This legendary duo have remained largely untouched on the internet with barely a single remarke or recreation attempted.
This is partly due to a lot of the mysticism surrounding their techniques. Apart from word of mouth on forums like DOA https://www.dogsonacid.com/threads/how-do-i-get-this-fat-amen-break.782308/ there is only this 5 min clip from the metalheadz documentary where we see some techniques in action - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YrisGeqn70s&t=133s
Their sound is incredibly unique, towing that perfect line between heavily distorted, in your face drums & bass whilst still retaining the fatness & energy that often gets lost with this type of processing.
I think this may be the first step towards a future video for my YouTube channel & I hope everyone finds it useful! Please ask away if you have any questions. ✌️

Good call on looking at the wave form as well. There's a lot to be said about looking at the waveforms of drums you like. Sometimes you can trust your eyes!
