ANDY BEAN as HENRY in HERE AND NOW

"well, unless you're super duper friendly with everyone you just meet, and i'm definitely not, i suspect they'll have their suspicions anyway." he smiles, having her this close feels right and he's never felt quite this comfortable, confident and warm in the presence of someone he hardly knew...ever before, in his entire life. he spots his parents glancing at one another from the corner of his eye but he doesn't look over to check, doesn't want to. he's far from ashamed of knowing quinn, and whilst he wouldn't expose every intricate, naughty detail, he wouldn't hide the fact that he knew her, that they'd met and they'd clearly enjoyed doing so, too. eyes narrow over the forty remark then, giving the side of her neck a gentle squeeze, his way of playfully reprimanding her for her cheeky remark. "you like an older man then, quinn?" quinn. he's going to use it now, even if he's sure it sounds foreign to her right now. it's nice knowing her name, nice knowing that she's already a cemented part of his family dynamic, nice knowing that he'll see her again and again at family functions at the very least, though he knows from all their body language displayed that'd be more than that, most likely. the waiter asks them what they want and he opts for one of the choices she'd pointed at, throwing her a glance when it's her time to order, biting into the smile that threatens to overwhelm his expression.

"that isn't up to me, is it? this isn't my family." she wasn't really ashamed of how they really met, though. perhaps she wouldn't want everyone to know that they had had insanely hot sex in an empty room at a party but it wasn't like she was going to vehemently deny ever seeing archie before. it still feels so weird to have a name for him. up until now, he has just been party guy and that had suited her sort of well. it wasn't amazing, especially when she told annika about it all. the endless amount of ribbing she had taken for that one was untold but she didn't care. it was still incredible and nothing would change that. quinn laughs and leans into him, her forehead resting against his shoulder. "you know what i mean!" she leans into his arm, liking how easily he had placed it there against the back of her chair. it was nice, all of this was really fucking nice. "hm, they might have slipped up on that one. but age is just a number, right? and not in like, the weird way some people say that. i don't think you look a day over forty," she teases. quinn grins as she reaches up to grasp his chin, scrunching up her nose. her fingertips stroke softly along the inside of his thigh and she can't imagine anybody not knowing something was going on between them. at the very least they would know they had met before today, quinn was not this friendly with anybody she met on the spot.

The variations are mainly due to the last bar of four.

The C,O,R can be any hat or ride sound.

Accents and other hit variations are not shown and up to the programmer.

Last Bar Ideas

Octatrack 

Neighbour track with 

filter settings to 0 Base 0 width for 4:4 or 8:8

General 

Main track with A:B trigger with the silenced notes at 0 VOL and the Neighbour track the _NEI

- precludes randomisation

- with the Rytm if the same drum is required then the track may have to double up in machines

There are lots of probability in this patten. I did not see a structure that fit into Elektron conditionals.

The probability numbers are rounded to Electron conditional values.

Only the first 7 bars used as the last bar is more of a fill.

H1a 10@4:4, 12@4:4, 14@4:4,

H1a and H1b are on the same track but with p-locked variations or sample changes.

Alternatively just use 25% instead of 4:4 for more variation.

C 1-9@100, 10-16@ _NEI

Cr 1@1st

The actual break hits has a percentage chance of each of the sounds or nearly all of the trigs. 

An option would be to fill in a selection of trigs for the machines and then dial in a probability value on the trig page. out.

To make the patten more steady one of the tracks could have most hits at 100%

Adamo in his writeup of the break notes his work is an approximation with 'a lot of unaccountable sounds'.

In the audio example KD 1 is at 10O to get a definite down beat. The patten can become too random so some certainty could be added be added for the kicks and snares.

Example 8bars

Kit: HAILDO (default)

Love at First Sight - John Timmons

BD 1@100, 7@100, 8@100, 11@100, 15@100

A straight forward patten take from a 4 bar score. My next step would be to randomise  the snares then a couple of BD trigs. In the audio snippet I use the CP track as a bass takes the SD slot.

Example 8 bars

Kit: SU-CEK (Default)

Baby Don't Cry - The Third Guitar

The first break

bpm 102

CY 1@1:2

CH 1@2;2, 3,4,5@100 , 6@59, 7@Pre, 8@Pre, 9@59, 10@33, 11@50, 12@59, 13@Pre, 14@Pre

BD 1@100, 3@75, 8@25, 9@59, 11@1:3, 12@2:8, 16@50

In this I wanted to try more X:Y conditionals, both frequent repetitions such as 3:3 and the more occasional such as 3:8. 

Recognize - Breakestra - Drums: Miles Tackett

bpm: 96 - Swing: 56

OH 1@25, 3@25, 9@N_NEI, 11@_NEI

CH 1@59, 3@59, 5@81, 7@100, 9@81, 11@75, 13@15, 15@75

SD 1@13, 2@81, 4@25, 5@75, 6@60, 7@13, 8@100, 10@q00, 11@13, 12@33, 13@59, 14@50, 15@50, 16@81

BD 1@100, 3@59, 4@25, 6@25, 9@50-, 11@75, 12@13, 13@13, 14@50, 15@13

If both OH and CH occur on 1 or 3 only OH will be heard as it has precedence.

This will allow silences to develop. Swing is used for the first time given the notes in the Adamo interpretation.

Organ Donor - DJ Shadow

bpm: 110

CH 1,,3,5,7,9,11,13,15@100

SD 1@8:8, 2@25, 4@6:8, 5@75, 6@8:8, 8@25, 9@8:8, 10@100, 11@8:8, 12@4:8, 13@75, 14@8:8, 16@100

BD 1@100, 3@75, 5@6:8, 6@7:8, 7@50, 8@_PRI, 9@59, 11!100, 12@8:8, 15@4:4

If just one hit appeared on a trig then that became a X:Y. I have still to worked out how to program hits which appear in every bar but the last as there is not a (not)X:Y conditional. They could be put as 87% to see what turns out but because in this patten it was on the 1 I rounded up to 100%. 

Ain't It Hard - Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings - Homer Steinweiss

CH 1@75, 3@75, 5@75, 7@87, 9@75, 11@75, 13@87, 15@87

OH 1@25, 3@25, 5@12

CY 7@12, 9@12

CP 1.3.5@8:8

LT 15,16@8:8

MT 13,14@8:8

SD 3@12, 5@59, 8@62, 9@12, 10@25, 11@50

BD 1@100, 5@33,9@59, 11@25, 13@25, 15@59

The hat conditionals and sounds related to the kit. The original interpretation the CY sound is a half open hat. The CP sound is supposed to be crash but the cymbal which could be use as the alternate hat and not really emphatic. Hence the CP.

The toms are your choice.

The hits for the 8:8 could be used as a fill instead.

The original score has a 7/8 and a 8/8 bar which I wrangled in to 4/4.

Speak E.Z. - Lettuce - Adam Deitch

bpm: 83

CY 1@1st

CH 1@_1st, 3@100, 5@25, 7@75, 8@3:4, 9@1:4, 10@2;2, 11@75, 13@3:4, 15@100, 16@2:4

OH 5@25, 13@4:4

SD 2@20, 3@3:4, 5@75, 6@50, 8@100, 9@2:2, 10@3:4, 11@4:4, 13@75, 15@2:2, 16@75

BD 1@100, 2@2:2, 4@75, 7@2:4, 9@1:2, 10@100, 12@75, 14@2:4, 16@4:4

The first four bars which are improvised through the song (Adamo)

Example 8 bars

Kit: DNMXTWO (Default)

You Got Me - The Roots - Ahmir "Questlove" Thompson

Main Drum Groove

bpm: 81

CH 1-16@100

SD 5,13@100

BD 1@75, 3@4:4, 5@4:4, 8@1:2, 9@4:4, 10@1:2, 11@4:4, 14@4:4, 16@2:4

In a later parts of the song the CH is more random so the overall trigger probability can be less than 100%.

The BD play on bars 1,2 and 3 but not 4 so the 75% is to cover the unavailability of _X:Y. 

In the song's outro there are 1/32 CH and SD trigs. To do this set the tempo to PTN (patten). In the Scale menu [Func + Page]:

Mode: ADV

Track: 32:32 with 2X (speed)

Master Len 32

So 1 bar is now 32 triggers.

This is Questlove playing to replicate the J Dilla style of drumming programmed with with an MPC. "Its the full circle" wrote Adamo. I think it is a misapplication of talent and technology.

Kit: KLAZ

You Know I'm No Good - Amy Winehouse - Homer Steinweiss

bpm: 104

OH 8,11@25

CH 1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15@100

SD 5@100, 7@75, 8@100, 10@50, 13@100, 15@2:6

BD 1@100, 7@25, 11@100, 15@100

This is the last score from the Breakbeat Transcriptions chapter in the "Breakbeat Bible" by Mike Adamo. It is a book a recommend as there a a number of techniques and shorter transcriptions through out which make a great starting point. 

This did introduce me to techniques (and music) beyond the 4x4 these can be introduced especially with the snares and hats which moving the kicks to the standard 1,5,9,13. 

I enjoyed doing this and I am pleased it is useful to other drummers.

Thanks for the comments and if there are any questions put these in the replies as I still follow the thread.

Thank you.
