Chopping Samples for House Music // How I Sequence Sample Chops

When making House beats, my mindset slightly changes when it comes to how I chop and sequence samples. In this video I am going through how I chop samples for House, and showing a few things to keep in mind while coming up with patterns. This workflow and mindset does also translate well in making other types of beats as well.

For this beat I used the MPC ONE as the standalone tool to flip the samples, record drums, and sequence the bassline.

I hope you enjoy this workflow and the House sample based beat, and I hope the video provides some inspiration for your own production. I will be in the comments, so let me know if you want to see more videos like this one!

There came a time where I felt like I’ve seen all the music production videos on YouTube. But occasionally I find something that blows my mind and drastically alters a part of my music production. This was that. Thank you sir. Keep doing your thing. 👍🏽

Did you just unlock Daft Punk? Literally the most important MPC Tutorial I've found for house mate! Yes!!

[therealstacksonthebeat]

This was fantastic. Did you stretch the sample to match the BPM of your project first? I'd love to see a tutorial on how you prepped the sample.

Great Video!
A Video about how you prepare the sample for chopping would be much appreciated! I have a hard time slicing samples so that the transients nicely line up at the beginning of each slice. Its always off for some ms. Anyway, keep up the great work!

Oh wow, that sounds funky. Dude, your videos stand out from the majority. Most do the same thong but some do things different and give good advice for beginners like me, amd you are 1 of those. Much apriciated from the netherlands

love all your beats man, but your house style is elite lofifunk, no doubt

[fabriceployart]

It is amazing ! it sounds pretty cool !!!! I could really listen to this track ! it could have been on "Discovery" by Daft Punk too !!

[nuansfm]

I really like how you’re taking a hip hop mindset into the house genre. Cheers 🥂

[fadeblak]

That was hard bro! I don’t even listen to house music but the few times i’ve experimented with the house samples that came with the mpc have been some of the most fun i’ve had making beats
