The New Drum Secret Most Producers Don't Know! [2026]

Ajouté : 2026-06-04

[00:00:00]I had to strip my whole setup down, but we back, man. Um, you know, took me a minute to uh optimize everything and make sure everything was straight so I can be back recording on this channel for y'all and make some beats. But that's a story for another day, man. We here to talk about my drum bounce. Now, a lot of people ask me how I layer my drums. Um, I don't really try, if that makes sense. Um, I just try to find a different pocket every time because, you know, a lot of people when they make beats, after you make beats for a certain while, you get bored, bro. So, you want to create in a different way and you don't want to use the same You might want to do something different. You might want to do me after producing for so long.

[00:00:38]Sometimes even that little other rhythm I just gave y'all. I be doing stuff more complicated than that. And y'all have seen me do that on stream. You know what I'm saying? I got witnesses in the comments. I know y'all real. Y'all real.

[00:00:48]But we pretty much just going to get straight to it. I don't want to talk that much anymore. I'm basically just going to play this beat for y'all. And after I play this beat, I'm going to cook up a beat that has a unique drum bounce. And yeah, I'm going to just break it down. You know what I'm saying?

[00:01:00]So, let's get it.

[00:01:01]>> [ __ ] you.

[00:01:08]>> [ __ ] you.

[00:01:16][ __ ] you.

[00:01:23][ __ ] you.

[00:01:30][ __ ] you.

[00:01:38]I'm using um almost all John Glick 7 drums cuz sound selection is definitely a part of this. I don't want y'all to get it twisted. Um because all of my drum bounces based off of sound selection. Certain drums that you use could be BPM friendly or not. So, what you want to do is just like use the best drums that you can possible in this situation. Me, I wanted a chill synthy melody in the background, but I wanted a different drum bounce that's simple and easy for people to catch on, but complicated enough to be different.

[00:02:04]Right. We going to play the drums by the so y'all can catch on.

[00:02:07]>> [ __ ] you.

[00:02:14]>> [ __ ] you.

[00:02:21]So yeah, so that's it. So basically the bass, this is the clear base from um John Glick 7 as y'all can see to the left. And then um just really simple that goes the same until right here.

[00:02:41]You know, I got that little roll at the end. Um, usually I just go like this and put the notes random. Like I always do stuff like that in my beats. Um, but I I think I actually click those in when I did that roll. Um, and then our high hats, the high hats pretty loud in this beat, but they like, you know, they stay the same the whole the whole ride through.

[00:03:02]You know what I'm saying?

[00:03:09]And you know, snare.

[00:03:14]And you got the roll right here.

[00:03:22]Turn the high hats on.

[00:03:28]But you see like everything is moving and it has a purpose. Like you know what I'm saying? The high hat still carrying the rhythm, right? But you got that snare that hit like that and it's you know what I'm saying? But the high hat has carrying the rhythm like you know cuz they was already doing that that little they was doing that right here.

[00:03:48]But like when you do that roll it it's like okay it makes sense why it's going up like that. And the 808 is off key too but it still sound good right? The rhythm and cadence of your actual melody has everything to do why your drum bounce is what it is. like it's so clear. And then you got this uh roll right here. I forgot about this snare roll, too. that that like emphasized everything else. You know, you already got a pattern that was good, but then you make it better by putting something else that's like, "Okay, yeah, this snare roll is coming, so get ready."

[00:04:41]Like, you know what I'm saying? But then you got the bass just going the whole time.

[00:04:51]You know what I'm saying? That it it just makes sense, you know, when you finally hear it and you play them chords and you like, "Oh, okay.

[00:05:11]Yeah. You know, everything else is just add-ons. You know what I'm saying? After that, it's just open hats, chants, and everything else. Now, I'mma talk about that, too, because you know, y'all know I draw all my snare rolls in. You know what I'm saying? So, we don't even got to talk about that. I already talked about snare rolls. Y'all can go watch that video. But um so like I don't know if it makes sense, but I like for my beats to sound like this.

[00:05:35]I don't know how to I don't know how to explain it, bro. But that's what the beat sound like. Hold on. I'mma do the dance while I while I play the beat. Oh, hold on.

[00:05:44]>> [ __ ] you.

[00:05:47]>> But like the chant does that. Like if you listen to the pocket of like I'mma just play like less sound so y'all can get what I mean. Like the the chant does that on its own at the beginning. It go like >> [ __ ] you.

[00:05:59]>> That I like pockets like that cuz it make it like okay, you know what I'm saying? Everything else is just add-ons.

[00:06:04]Like the beat already good, but you now you have other accents that make the beat really what it is. You know what I'm saying? Like those highends that emphasize every single thing else.

[00:06:19]You know, the time the little You know what I'm saying? cuz the melody is layered, but it's like now you really got that that accent like, "Okay, I heard that." You know what I'm saying?

[00:06:27]Like now not now the beat sound tropical a little bit that you know what I'm saying? That's just like being sleazy with it. It's like skating. Like I look at beats like skating. Y'all know how people skate and they just look so nonchalant. Like that's literally how I want my beats to sound, bro.

[00:06:45]And that's only like right there. I literally just only put that right there just because. Just because. A lot of a lot of my stuff is just because. You know what I'm saying?

[00:06:52]>> [ __ ] you.

[00:06:56]>> That's from Raise Your Hand seven.

[00:06:59]>> [ __ ] you.

[00:07:07][ __ ] you.

[00:07:09]>> You know what I'm saying? I ain't even going to play the bass. I'mma just play every other sound except the bass. Well, maybe not the chords neither. I want to just play so y'all can get the pocket.

[00:07:17]>> [ __ ] you.

[00:07:24]>> [ __ ] you.

[00:07:32]>> [ __ ] you.

[00:07:32]>> Yeah. Yeah. I'mma bring it in.

[00:07:39]>> [ __ ] you.

[00:07:41]You feel me?

[00:07:46][ __ ] you.

[00:07:54][ __ ] you.

[00:08:01]>> [ __ ] you.

[00:08:08]>> [ __ ] you.

[00:08:09]>> That's one of the most unique pockets I ever came up with. I never did that before. You know what I'm saying? And it's just it's it's weird, but it's like it's mechanical to the point where it's just like nah. Yeah. Like it got a it got just enough detail to it. And then like the effect that DI will effect, bro. I think this is from Hold on.

[00:08:27]Jamaican 2. Yeah, this is from Raise Your Hand Sab. And I was right. Yeah, bro. Like that just tied up to everything else. Now, now when you put that effect on there, say goodbye.

[00:08:36]You're done. You What the hell?

[00:08:38]>> [ __ ] you.

[00:08:41]Now you got a full beat. And you know it changed every um 16 bars the 808 change.

[00:08:47]And y'all know I'm random with my format, but I you know I always do um like eight bar breakdowns. I do eight bar breakdowns depending on my progression. If my progression is like um a longer progression than this, like this is like a simple what like four bar turnaround progression. If it's like a eight bar turnaround progression, I might want to make another, you know, turn it turn my um my eight bar breakdown to a 16 bar. But this is not I'm not doing that in this case. You know what I'm saying? This is just like a 1 2 3 4 melody. One 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 and then restart. You know what I'm saying?

[00:09:21]It is. But um yeah, like and then y'all see like sometimes I take stuff out of bar early and put stuff in the bar early. Um I did that with the drums on this beat. I ain't even do that with the melody. with a melody, I would put stuff in to make you think it's going to stay there and then take it out. Like that's what I that's what I did right here. You know what I'm saying? And and that goes with everything else. And on breakdowns lately, I've been doing like my accents and stuff and then when the beat come back, I would do like a little roll that let you know the beat about to come back on.

[00:09:52]>> [ __ ] you.

[00:09:54]>> You know what I'm saying? So yeah, bro, that's pretty much like the sauce. And it's so simple, bro. People think making beats is so complicated. I swear it's not, y'all. It's not. Once you It's It just really take repetition. That's what I be trying to tell people. People be like, "How did you get so good uh repeating and uh not going to school and not having a job for a long ass time and just kept repeating and figuring out what I wanted to do with my life and just kept repeating making beats. And now I really I really feel like I'm in my own bag where I feel like, you know, [ __ ] copy me a little bit or you know what I'm saying? Which is cool. I don't got no problem with that. Or like [ __ ] may be inspired by what I do and like that's literally what I dreamed of.

[00:10:30]That's that's what I want. You know what I'm saying? Not when [ __ ] disrespect me and do it or say that they came up with something or made that. Oh, they No, no. But like, you know, a lot of stuff is meant to be gatekeep, but it's just like the way my brain work, bro.

[00:10:42]Nobody can actually make beats like the way I want to make beats. You know what I'm saying? And like people may do something similar, but it's just like they still do it in their own way. Even if you try to copy me and watch how I made every beat I ever made, you probably still couldn't make beats like me. And that's literally how cold I wanted to become before I started my channel. You know what I'm saying? And that may sound arrogant to other people, but to me it just sounds normal because I take pride in what I do and I make a living off of what I do. So, why would I not flex the muscle a little bit? You know what I'm saying? I'mma make a new uh beat. All of my Chrome Hearts beats are going to be rock type beats. Um, so that's how I'm coming. We finn to cook up now. You feel me? I gotta turn on the delay for this, ladies and gentlemen.

[00:11:22]You know what I'm saying? We get it. I'm bullshitting. Let's go.

[00:11:35]It's crazy cuz it's got that same bounce I was just talking about with the last beat. That that spider bounce little joint.

[00:11:44]I need something calmer.

[00:11:47]You know what I'm saying?

[00:11:50]That Heat. Heat. N.

[00:13:26]Heat. Heat.

[00:13:46]We got a good little start. I'm going to make the chords a little bit more sophisticated though.

[00:14:02]Mixing is a big part of this process, too. So, you don't want to use these unique sounds and like um your mix mess them up. You know what I'm saying? So, like it's sound selection, but you can mix too. And like usually you don't have to, but I be trying to make my stuff blend.

[00:14:45]Sometimes I like to out wire it. You know what I'm saying?

[00:14:51]You know, let's change the key. I know I changed the key a million times. We going to do it again. I don't get no [ __ ] Let's turn that bass octave down.

[00:15:30]I'm use a KD chy.

[00:15:40]>> Sometimes I like to delete one note back here and just slide the high hats back to see what groove I can get. Mystery in the train.

[00:15:49]Yo yo yo yo. Mystery in the trick.

[00:16:06]Mr. intrigue.

[00:16:19]Yeah, I like to like >> emphasize it a little bit like >> and pause the high hats at the end. You know what I'm saying? Like now we got like a full like thing like intrigue.

[00:16:46]I might add like some little like times too.

[00:16:51]Now we got to make sure them bass uh match with the 808. Right.

[00:17:22]Yeah, I literally just copied the bass from like y'all just seen what I just did. I copied the uh the bass like from Zenology and I put it on my 808 and I just like put it in key but I deleted some notes. Now I got a whole groove that I'm about to keep cuz I like it.

[00:17:37]You know what I'm saying?

[00:17:41]Let's put soft clipper on cuz I can hear stuff rattling once you get to putting that 808 on there. Yeah, we got to put that on.

[00:17:49]I like doing this too so I don't get rid of my high hand. You know what I'm saying? We just want to control that low end.

[00:18:05]Add some oomph to that bass.

[00:18:14]Now, let's turn the low end down on the actual bass like not the 808y intrigue.

[00:18:32]>> All that's left is just adding ear candy. You know what I'm saying? Mystery and intrigue.

[00:18:43]Mystery and intrigue.

[00:18:51]Mystery and intrigue.

[00:18:58]Mystery and intrigue.

[00:19:02]Now that we got the low end, we want we want to kind of get a beat some control cuz it's kind of like spread out. So, we want to like close it. You know what I'm saying? Pause. Oh my god. All right. But yeah, y'all know what I mean, though.

[00:19:32]Mystery in the dream.

[00:19:40]Mystery in the dream.

[00:19:49]Mystery in the dream.

[00:19:52]Mystery in the tree.

[00:20:03]So, I want y'all to notice something.

[00:20:05]So, I just changed the 808 because I didn't like how it was cl like that specific 808 sound good by itself. But I still want that bass in there. I I still want the low end to like ride. You know what I'm saying? So, like that bass, the frequencies was too crunchy for me to use. So, I decided to go with the Jeezy bass instead. It's a little bit more of a a clear kind of straight through rattle. I would rather use that. You know what I'm saying? I changed the snare pattern a little bit. And then we about to format. And yeah, we pretty much done. And I'm going to add my little U effects on there. And we good.

[00:20:44]>> Mystery and intrigue.

[00:20:47]Mystery and intrigue.

[00:24:30]>> Yeah, that's it. You know what I'm saying? I feel like this was dope, man, cuz I really feel like y'all get to see like what my process really is as far as making melodies and like just my drum patterns in general because I feel like when it come to like pockets and stuff, people not trying to like find no pockets.
