Producer's Diary: When metal hits the drum


I am a Hardcore Techno producer for several decades, and when people ask me: "what is the most aggressive, brutal, and violent track you produced?" I would probably say: it is this one.

It's not super fast speedcore, it's slowcore. But I never got the bass drum as hard, as noisy, as distorted, like in this track.
It's almost painful to listen to it (to me).

I actually produced this one back in December 2013 already.

Apart from the drum, the track is quite simple: there are no other elements besides the bass drum.
The drum just gets put through various filters and effects... ...as the track moves on - which I did "live", jamming.

But this setup of effects and processing was quite complex and complicated, and "brainy", of course.
