Lately I've been digging into my 90's NYC boom-bap collection A LOT, but I'm also craving for raw unchanging walls. I guess the connection bewteen the two is that they can both be referred to as "old-school" today.
I wanted to do something that would keep the HNW form, but aiming at the grit of 90's NY rap in spirit.
Fo the intros I sampled the interludes of an album that came to be considered as a crowning achievement of this gritty hip-hop sound: Enter The Wu by the Wu-Tang Clan. I put them through the same set-up I used to make the walls:
White noise => 4 Eyes + Harmonise + Bass Big Muff + Octave + Memory Boy + Boss Reverb and EQ.
The main difference, apart from the EQ, is that the Big Muff is set on low tone / min sustain for "Burial" and high tone / max sustain for "Battle".
