    Vinyl bass?

    Hes probably talking about clipping the sample itself (either in a sampler or software) rather than driving it so hard across the master bus that it clips. Lots of producers do this as a quick means of getting samples punchy/crunchy. DnB producers have been doing it for years.

    Vocal Production Techniques/Appreciation

    i dislike that kind of sexless rnb android vocal. its the wrong kind of creepy... fave vocal treatment this year is the paul woolford mix of reach for me: http://mp3.juno.co.uk/MP3/SF1302122-02-01-01.mp3 the intro is the bollocks. simple enough layering and fx but executed to perfection. epic.

    autotune. please don't

    in respect to it being disconcerting... thats something I always appreciate. i mean if modern music is painstakingly constructed, anything that makes that evident has at least an ounce of honesty, even if its merely aping a popular trend or pretending to be street, whatever that means any more.

    Three reasons to keep an eye on drum and bass

    Minimal Tech, Electro etc

    still really enjoying most things paul woolford puts out. e.g. black orchid. fun scribbly synth bit. big sub. tidy beats and drops. massive massive sound... his mix of myomi 'sun in my eyes' was very 'troit, but that new track 'utopia' is even moreso! and his mix of 'reach for me' from the...
