Producer recreates 3 FAMOUS TECHNO DROPS from Charlotte De Witte, Joyhauser and Enrico Sangiuliano

3 chapters
  • Joyhauser - Warped Drop Breakdown(0'0011'48)
    Classic techno drop using break into chorus structure. Energy builds during the break and drops into the chorus with maximum energy for the dance floor.
    • Horn sound made with Serum preset (Boris Analog Lead) combining two sawtooths with slow envelopes • Distortion, compression, and reverb applied on top • Glue compression and EQ used to finalize the horn sound
    • LFO pad with digital/distorted square wave and noise, modulated with Elder Flanger for movement • Sawtooth layer with distorted FM modulation on top to add thickness • Noise layering and unison to increase sound size • Hard distortion and reverb automation creating ambient space
    Classic kick with rumble sound, delay modulated with phaser and chorus. Heavy automation throughout to create progressive brightness and open up the filter frequency leading into the drop.
  • Enrico Sangiuliano - Drop Into Preverse(11'4823'02)
    Drop goes into preverse instead of chorus, cleaning up the track. This allows resetting the composition and rebuilding the same elements again, making it compositionally flexible.
    • Opening beep using Diva with single square wave, short decay and long sustain envelope • Deep arp sound that evolves throughout the track using side chain triangle waves • Transitions from bell to brass to big lead sound using three different presets with automation • Glue compressor on the group to balance transitions between sounds
    • Clap sound sent to Valhala Vintage Verb to enhance ambience during the break • Acid track element with emphasis modulation and cutoff automation creating 'win-win' sound • String pad with automated high pitch for tension and contrast • Digital oscillator creating stereo width and chorus effect for bigger ambience
    Horn sound with delay and reverb effect chain. Reverb is sidechain compressed and placed on stereo sides only, keeping the center clean while adding spacious reverb effect. Drop contains only kick and rumble, creating dark underground ambience.
  • Charlotte De Witte - Drop Into Verse(23'0230'50)
    • Layered kick with multiple components: kick layer, sub/rumble part, kick body, percussive part, click, and noise layers • Low end partially cut during break to emphasize high-end elements while maintaining kick presence • Track heavily driven by supersaws, a classic element in stab techno
    • Main supersaws using Pigments wavetable with unison (many voices) and stereo spread • Bright, open cutoff frequency with reverb, overdrive, compression, and lucky envelopes • Two different stab parts with progression, adding a second layer one octave up for more drama • Exciter arp sound with clacky fast cutoff and slight sustain for texture
    • Double clap sounds with automation • Snare roller/roll with transposition changes and frequency automation linked to reverb • Additional rhythmic variation with different snare pattern for cool interplay • Hi-hat and additional percussion to complete the driving techno feel
    Classic driving techno track with heavy stab-based progression. Combines filtered synth sounds with high resonance, distortion via Pedal effect, low-end cutting, and layered percussion for a powerful, modern stab techno aesthetic.
