Fast, Rolling & Psychedelic
This chapter explores low-end techniques tailored for faster, forest-inspired techno influenced by psychedelic trance. We’ll shape a short, punchy kick with DS Kick, design a rolling FM bassline in Operator, match the key of the kick and bass, experiment with modulation, and use sidechaining and compression to create a tightly controlled groove.
