If you’re looking for some tips on how to improve your Hip Hop drum programming skills, this is a great video tutorial for you. In this tutorial I cover:
-
How to quickly get your kick drum to hit harder
-
How to instantly get your snares to sound more resonant
-
How to program bounce style Hi-Hats
And I do this all using our Dretastic Detox sample sound drum kit (one of my personal favorite products) and Reason 4.0. Check out the video tutorial and let me know what you think…

the beat was cool until you added the high hats…dont mix Westcoast with bounce…nasty combination
The beat was so Friggin hard, and I really appreciate this tutorial. I’m going to definitely use them. But I don’t like the hats in the background, I think it messed up the music’s swag to it. Still, beautiful production man. Keep droppin knowledge on us, we need it!!!
Trama and Steve,
Thank you for the feedback! I admit I definitely went out on a limb with these hats. If I do a remix I will certainly keep your comments in mind. Actually, I have an artist coming through to lay down some vocals over this track for his album; I’ll give him a couple of versions of the beat with the hats changed up and see which one he rolls with. Whatever he records to I’ll post it for everyone. Keep checking in!
Alright y’all!!! Got the new post up. Go check out the new version of the beat and vote on which one you think is the best!
I just realized why the HATS were added, LOL. He pulled a white guy move. lol JK JK. Take this DOWN! Its POWER OLD! What we need is tips on how to make ORIGINAL SYNTHS and PADS. Not making beats on sample sets P5′s created. I mean anybody can make a banger with your stuff if they’ve got a mind. Its simple copy and paste.
Steve,
Easy, easy. And I’m on a mission to bring back the rapid hi-hat!
