Tutorial Breakcore .mod, .med, .rns, .it, .xm

hseiken, I continued your Stevie Wonder track just to learn more about Renoise. I can send you the .xrns if you want.

nikki -> coo, i want to hear.

mail to: hakyoku at gmail dot com. :)

Ok. Mailed.

Did those files help at all? (the .it and it’s watered down renoise counterpart)

If you can give a sound example of what you’re looking for, I can probably pick it apart and give you the lowdown. Can’t promise anything, but I’d like to try.

Any idea how I could post some examples? I don’t think I can post them directly in the forum or if so I don’t know how.

how did you decide at what pitch you would trigger the vocals? Did you just use good old trial and error until it fit the tempo of the song and drums? or did you work the tempo of the drums and song around the vocal sample?

You can either:
open up a crappy free account with some web service or

use ‘you send it’

I happen to have a gmail account and a googlepages account integrated, so I use googlepages to host my muzak.

This is such a hard question to answer…there’s millions of ways to decide this…one of them involves a program that can re-tempo a sample, another is trial and error and yet another is selective chopping, but my favorite and the one that yields the best results is ACCIDENT! I find that the more accidents I have with raw samples, the better…it’s unexpected and works!

Use this information for evil purposes, please! :)

hey !
first post here but using renoise since a bit and really would appreciate like the dude who first psot this thread if the breakcore community would share like on reasonstation some rns tuto files…i mean i dont want to steel any copyrights or ideas…but i d love to get some happy breakcore tuto advises really really! :)

Just curious as to why you would post looking for reason files when this is the renoise forum, not to demean you or reason, just figured you might have more luck on a reason forum. Some advice I can give for reason is to not use the dr.rex. Use the nnxt instead, this sampler will give a more "tracker"ish feel in my opinion. One thing that helps me is to think lo fi. Think, I’m this dude who’s broke and all I have is this sampler. What can I do with it? Put yourself back in the 90’s before all this software stuff was available, when ram was in short supply and was expensive, and when you were lucky to even have a sampler. Reason is a whole studio in one package, but you don’t necessarily have to use it that way. Use things in reason to make samples that you render and bring back into a sampler. Just a thought.

every moron can make breakcore. even I can!
remember: distortion is a substitute for talent.
as for the rest, break away, bass away and add lots
of noise and it’s 100% guaranteed musicless breakcore!

you don’t need tutorials… you need randomness!

BotB, that’s a pretty ignorant thing to say. I don’t think Venetian Snares and the like would appreciate that comment seeing as though he can spend hours programming 5 seconds worth of music. There’s no randomness in good breakcore. It takes talent, hard work and dedication… along with some original ideas. Not just a load of distortion and noise. Maybe you should put your money where your mouth is and show us your breakcore efforts?

If you didn’t read the sarcasm in my post, I’m very sorry.

But c’moooooooon… how much breakcore is GOOD breakcore?
Venetian Snares, sure… and who else…?

if you really must… I’m not claiming to be good, I’m claiming to be as
much breakcore as everyone else and being breakcore is easy.

That’s really good stuff BotB, you obviously know that it’s not random then!

I’ve been looking for some new loops actually like the drum loop you’re using at 1min 30 into the song, is that off a particular sample CD?

Alright, almost finished with this breakcore track I’m working on. I have applied everything I know and have learned from people in this thread. Just wondering if people would mind taking a listen and maybe give me some advice or opinions. Check out the track “Jubba Unfinished” on my myspace at:

Listen to: Jubba Unfinished

hseiken I’m hoping you will at least have something to say.

Thanks, sorry for sounding harsh earlier though… I don’t agree on ‘tutorials’ on any music genre or the like,
I found the topic kinda awkward, but I did my homework now and read up… it’s nothing of the sort, so sorry.

About that beat; a friend gave me some samples… I think it’s Metalheadz or Noizeloopz or something…
but sampling drumsolo’s from funk/jazz records often works too, if it’s that rattling sound you’re after.

BotB, I like your track a lot. You don’t have any advice for me or .xrns you might be willing to share do you? If you get a chance, check out the track I was talking about earlier and let me know if you have any ideas that might help me improve at all. It’s track:

Jubba on my myspace.

Like the slow part. The amen doesn’t get crazy enough, I think, for the sound of the rest of the track.

Here’s some ideas that don’t involve VSTs…

Set up a Chorus effect and turn it on and off and play with the delay on it (you can get near to glitchy effects by quickly setting through commands a semi long delay with a high feedback and then shrinking the delay…get’s a very glitchy sound without hardly any work). Also, the snare gets redundant on the second half of the track…however, the slow part’s ‘music’ loop thing sounds cool, though. :D

Maybe Bogdan Raczynski could be some inspiration for you…I know he’s inspired me any many ways, especially getting the most out of your samples using a lack of technology.

Don’t suppose you can upload or yousend the track or anything…? Myspace is not cooperating
at the moment… I will give it a try again later, but hey… just asking :)
I uploaded an xrns of a track I’m currently working on, I hope it can be of any help.
