Aphex Twin - T69 Collapse (Drum Pattern No. 55)

Apparently it's Aphex Twin week here at Beatbunny Studio 🐇🥁 This is our first drum pattern with a five bunny rating (a.k.a. "Nightmare Difficulty") - and deservedly so. It contains Kick/Snare choking, microtiming, odd retrig lengths, substep velocity ramps, a reverse snare and even an instrument-specific 5x tempo multiplier I had to find a workaround for. These first three bars took me a week to transcribe, but it was really worth it! So much to learn from this and lots of material gathered for "Drum Patterns Explained" 😄

Oh and this is the first time I needed to make an addendum with more detailed explanations... I created the sound sample with 808 sounds, which I find best to actually hear what's going on. Would be pretty insane for us to do this as an end jam, right? (insert sleep deprived grinning with a hint of madness emoji)

Difficulty rating: 🐇🐇🐇🐇🐇

Not yet, we want to save this one for a Drum Patterns Explained episode :) Plus the Syntakt now has portamento - we'll have to bring the project file into shape.

Captain Pikant

did you release a project file for the syntakt for this?

Hi Luke, yes grey means unnaccented / weak beat / less velocity. Be sure to also check out this tutorial on how to read the drum pattern transcriptions https://patreon.com/posts/how-to-read-drum-55107426

What are the grey trigs within the patterns? half velocity?
