    Banging track @The_Bro

    Was listening on the walk to work, and when the grumbling bass comes in at 2:00 I thought I was about to be hit by a motorbike.

    Luckily it was just the track! Lol

    Needs a little more work - but I like the late 80s house vibe

    Out of interest, did you get the stab sound from a synth - or perhaps you sampled "Inner City - Big Fun" or "Good Life"?

    I think the original is a pitched-down piano stab from a Roland D50, or DX100 or possibly Korg M1 (not sure)

    @winconway will probably know..


    here's a video of a guy extracting the sample from Nitro Deluxe :)

    I'm a huge Inner City fan!!! I got the sample off a friend. Inner City got their chord driven bass off the Nitro Deluxe track 'Let's get brutal' which is a total classic!!!

    I think my chord sounds closer to this though lol.

    Yeah - I did some digging and found this:

    Astonishing as it may be, Kevin Saunderson told his friend Mark Archer that the main synthesizer timbres on "Big Fun" were sampled from "Let's Get Brutal" (1986) by the New York project Nitro Deluxe. That doesn't take anything from "Big Fun"'s masterpiece, on the contrary; the secret lies on the way Kevin Saunderson, with the collaboration of the producers James Pennington A.K.A. Suburban Knight and Arthur Forrest on "Big Fun", used those timbres.

    Wow I didn't know James Pennington was involved in Big Fun. Unsung hero. He's made some awesome music as Suburban Knight. Check these.
