Hey guys, so I’m really hoping to find some good techniques that would work good for making some ambient-styled percussion samples with an electronic tinge to them (Some VST's or packs would be nice too). The sound of percussion I’m trying to achieve is a very deep and distorted type of snare/shaker with an electronic/synthy element to it. Often used in Ambient/Trip Hop/Chillout and also used in lots of different styles of Metal bands (Melodic Death Metal, Trance Metal, Alternative Metal, Nu Metal, etc.)
I have no problem throwing some EQ, Reverb, or Filters on a snare sample to give it a really "distorted" type of feel that fits Ambient, but I just can't seem to get that "electronic" element intertwined with it.
It’s very hard to explain what I’m looking for in text, but here's an example of a song that has the percussion sample I'm looking to create:
Skiller – Nightcrawler (The very electronic sounding percussion samples at the intro)
Any help would be appreciated, thanks guys!
