It does not matter if they are old or not dude, a good source sound is paramount

No, dammit, you can't use samples over 2 months old. They are just sooo played out.

You can start re-using them a year or two later and call them classics, though.

I'll take the opportunity of this thread to ask a noobish question :

In Acperience 1 by Hardfloor, the initial kick line goes like

x---x---x---x--xx---x---x---x

It is then repeated, but the kick is more wet, more "deep" I would say...

How is this effect obtained ?
