Yo
I am getting hang of snares but kicks are still fairly mysterious for me. Somebody once mentioned that kicks are the hardest part to get right(with the bass ofc) in a dnb tune, I didn´t believe it(I thought snares were the hardest). Boy was I wrong. Anyway, I am looking to make a nice dnb kick that is not really overdriving the mix but giving decent punch and presence in the mix. Something like Mind Vortex make, kick is not in-your-face but giving low-end a decent weight. Experimenting with "subby" kicks that are more suitable for house or whatever(Vengeance´s UK Trance Kicks if somebody knows) do not produce a nice result. Been trying to completely cut off low-end at approx. 90-100Hz and still got no kick that I need. Been experimenting with pure dnb kicks that are in nature punchier but with little action in the very bottom and problem with them is that they do not give a much needed weight to the low-end. Been trying to pitch, layer and combine different samples but it seems I am not really doing it the right way. So here I am - how does one make a proper dnb kick?
Mucho appreciado
