what kind of sounds do you use? Do you make your own? Do you just feed out of available soundbanks?
i believe its important to create your own sounds, even if it's a typical given sound, you can always modifiy it in a unique way. : ) PEACE

kitchen utensils are great. listen to chris clark, that has kitchen utensils written all over it.
just record a minute of frantic banging, scratching, cutting, chopping, scraping, etc. feed it into recycle, send to sampler 1 note per sample, load up sequencer and make wicked percussion to go with breaks. easy!

I always thought it would be cool if you used those squeaks you can make on the wall of your shower. You can make a lot of different noises.

microphone and a portable recording device. not difficult. you can hear excellent sounds all around you. best sound you can get are on building sites i think. i heard them chuck a massive bit of plaster board off the side of some scafolding into a skip and it resonated throughout the superstructure of the building creating the most massive fantastic sound.
just record sounds and snip them up into tiny sections for use as drums. get a loo roll and anything else and record your voice through it. get a contact microphone and attach it to your radiator to record fantastic reverb from your central heating system, there are so many fantastic sounds around. i rarely walk around with headphones on because the natural world has better sounds.
anywhere there is machinery it sounds good. factories, building sites, airports, roads. ive got a sampled dot matrix printer and that rocks.
just make sure you record or master them so they are normalised and sound ok, top and tail them in a wave editor to remove pops and maybe add any effects you want.
the best way to get good stabs is to randomly turn the mic on for half a second during some noisy activity whilst recording and you can later use lots of these snippets with some delay and reverb and they sound excellent but require no effort. just think amon tobin samples everything!

Absynth for bass drums coz i likes it.
and then a matter of:
Reaktor .ens (any) creating snapshot module. create control on rnd input. then output random into any other module. then pressing random. then making the playing with the midi controllering. also works with with machines like aerobic.
and lots of recycling. that thing is the fucking uberhaxorzcooldudemegawowzer.

and Nathan Barley
and My Wrongs #8245-8249 & 117
and you need to watch the new comedy program on channel 4 that will be out very soon called IT Crowd (although Chris is only acting, no writing or directorial credits)

no, you're not.
even if i only record voice sample or some talking - there's usually an interesting sound in the background that i cut out of the recording and use.

the only fun sampling is cutups of exhisting parts of songs,
to build a beat and render it to .wav and cutup is THE
