''Noise-Hop'' ?

Static Park - Rooftop Issue...

I've made another attempt at ''noise-hop'' = noise + hip-hop beat. The previous one was really simple: saturated drum-machine + static (check it out here) This time it's a bit more ''elaborate''..

So I've made some drums with a freeware drum-machine I found on the net and played the acoustic guitar + electric bass on top of it. The scratch were sampled from A Tribe Called Quest's ''Oh My God'' which was featured on my 90's Hip-Hop Playlist) and that's it for the beat.

The noise is piezo mic into Dream Crusher fuzz into Super Crunch Box with the gain all the way down to avoid the ''static wind'' FX and get a lot of feedback. I put A LOT of reverb on it because I thought it would make the noise blend better with the beat.

I also took the whole noise file 3 semi-tones down with the computer so it would be in the same key as the guitar. I hate doing so much processing on the computer but it really sounded better like that..
