Prodigy track made in Ableton in 10 mins

YouTube- Making Prodigy's "Smack My Bitch Up" in Ableton by Jim Pavloff

That's awesome.

Far too clever for me.

Listening now. Awsome.

Always been a Logic man. But that is a very nice demo of what adleton can do.

[off to have a go]

Too cool
Are those all the samples the prodigy used, or just thing gathered and made to sound like it?

Good stuff. I'm a Logic user myself.

Awesome video.

Wonder how many of those samples were cleared?

They are the samples that were used.

I'm on Logic too but I have started using Ableton more recently because of it's unique workflow.

Here's the Ableton 8 project if anyone wants it.

Whens that out?

"Where there''s a hit, there's a writ". Often samples are recreated, then you only have to pay songwriting royalties.

Yeah, that looks great -
"look at how any bit of culture is made, its about taking bits and peices of your influences and forging them into something newer and stronger".

Has any one heard of this guy?

Look at 'em go!

That's awesome, things have moved on a bit since me pissing about on a cracked copy of Cubase 2.0 on an Atari ST... limps under desk to die

The problem with this is that it suggests that the tools are all you need and with a powerful enough computer it's easy. But the real talent and what takes time isn't the manipulation of sound using computers, it's in identifying which sounds to sample and arranging them to create the music. The video lacked creative process.

Not sure what the OP is trying to say; that Prodigy's tracks are shit and easy? Remember, this track was released in 1997, produced probably the same year or in '96. No software DAWs like Ableton or Logic (in the shape we have them now) were available at the time.

That's why I love the quality of the early Prodigy stuff; it's all chopped up pretty badly and sampled from all over the shop. Genius!

Re Ableton, just tried the new studio version but couldn't really get my head around it as I'm so used to using Logic. Speaking of which, has anyone tried Logic 9? Any good?

We should get together and show some of our productions of the forum. I'm quite into Dubstep and heavy bass electronic stuff.

I'm working on a new youtube project: how to make Tracey Emin's "bed" in 2 minutes.

Share your bed with an artist who is better than you, then dump him because he gets more recognition?

Its not much more than an ableton showcase. Recreating tracks is easy. I learned most of what I know (not much) by recreating other peoples music.

1997 was hardly the dark ages, by 98, Logic 4 had full audio with timemachine, software instruments, and all the plugins you ever needed. Plus the s5000/s6000 and Emu Ultras where around, even in 97 I think with full graphical on screen sampled editing. You just needed a bit more kit. Not like the early 90s when I was still working with an s900 :-(

Yep !

I thought the very same thing, you could do the same thing with Yesterday by the Beatles.

Good video though.

I had an Ensoniq EPS 16+ with... wait for it... a massive 1mb of memory for everything (samples and sequences). Cost me £1400 second hand, and I worked 12 hour shifts all summer on a building site to save up for it.

Happy days :(

IZotope Ozone 4 is brilliant - I use it on everything - better than Waves even . . .

I had an EPS+ too ! I then went on the an ASR10 . . .

Made and release two albums and numerous terrible remixes on these babies !
