Hi Cepe,
Your first results are really great. I'm working on a new project - it should be a reggae song, so I thought you could share some tips. Unfortunately, the second reference
link is not working, it says: "This track was not found. Maybe it has been removed" How to make a reggae beat in LMMS correctly? I'm interested in a Jamaican style. Thank you.
Oh okay it's here, sorry ^^
So :
- The first link : I like the vibe, even if it's far with what I call "reggae", and not what I realy listen daily, but the vibe is cool, and the sound is clean. So, for people who love that kind of sound, it must be good. Well done anyway and thank you for sharing !
Note :
- If your goal is to give a little more reggae touch to the sound, the base is "groove" with a good background bass (ideally natural... With a bass guitar) for a good bass that sounds reggae. Then at least one copper instrument if you really want it to sounds reggae. With a trumpet and/or "bass trombone" for example. Because there personally I find that the background sound sounds a little "dance". Press on the groove with a good bass and at least one copper instrument. It'll change everything. By keeping a good rhythm of percussions (natural if you can ^^ (drums, djembe...), 1 time on 2 (or 3) for example, for a "classical reggae sound", rather slow (like roots..) (:
And the second link still doesn't work for me though... ):
Good continuation with that, my friend !
And having fun is the most important thing. Do what you love first (:
Peace
