This beat will always be nostalgic for me. I came home from serving a 2 year mission for my church and this was the first commercial song I heard in 2 years up to that point I played everyday before 6am football practices at BYU. It will always be one of my all time favorites. Beat is hella tight 🔥 thanks for sharing!!!
Most remakes do this exact same thing lmao. Still a fye remake don’t get me wrong, but you act like finding the actual samples someone used is new to this
Noah "40" Shebib did a breakdown of how me mixed this song in a soundonsound article would have loved to see you use the same plugins/techniques to get it even closer. Cool vid!
@@Mouadvafard Yea thats it. He talks about plugins used on specific instruments, you can see the settings for some of them. Also boi 1 da released drum kits with the exact sounds used that could've been used here. And on 40's first pensado place episode #151 he talks about cutting a lot of the bass and techniques used on this mix. Theres actually a lot of info out there about this song.
So I have been working on recreating this track myself and I noticed that the first 808 you use in this VOD(808 short sub 2) is actually out of tune with the track. Matter of fact all of the BWB 808s seemed to not be tuned to play at middle C. In Ableton, you can throw a tuner on the chain and when you do, using the sample raw, from the pack, it is actually playing at F# when you hit the middle c key on your midi keyboard. This means the 808 is not tuned at A 440, and when you program the notes on your piano roll in the VOD, it says they are B, C#, and D but the tones of the sub are actually F, G, Ab?!?!?! I'm pretty sure when I sing the progression of the track along with that portion of the video that the sounds are clashing because the 808 is not tuned out of the box. Correct me if I'm wrong on this but as I was working on recreating the track I could never pitch the notes up or down to get them to match what you are playing in the vid 3:58 . Check it out and let me know, I don't know if you copied this verbatim from someone else's daw or got to see the actual session from 40, or you figured it out all on your own by ear, but that particular seems off to my ear.
Snare was slightly inaccurate, I think he included the drums in his old drum kit back in the day (boi1da). But your attention to detail is incredible, I never would have noticed the strings!
