anyone have any clues as to what kinda stuff kahn uses? something about his sounds and mixdown really makes his stuff stand out, especially his drums.

I think his synth sounds are pretty massive-y or could be done there. but in terms of drum hits and sounds, anyone got a clue what kinda samples he'd use? I've come pretty close with some of the kicks in some garage sample pack, its the snares i'm after, haha.

probably makes the drums himself

I know he uses Ableton.

some of his older productions such as "Like we used to" i'm almost sure feature this old "ukgaragesamples" pack which at least sounds like it's from around the first garage wave from 10 yrs ago or so

kahn knows how to play a clash

nuff lyrics deya

Yeah i'm pretty sure this is where you get the sounds from. I was on more about his mix down techniques and his selection of plugins, his distortion/bitcrushing work is phenomenal, super smacky drums

the snare in Soundboy Obliterator is fucking massive

FWIW Kahn is a drummer himself

pretty sure i've heard the abelton ping-pong delay and the reverbs on his tracks, the ableton delay has a certain sound to it. not entirely sure of course but its an educated guess.

I saw Kahn play tonight but some strange things happened. Playing most of his set off his macbook(not dubstep) and not really mixing them, wedding DJ business. Played a few records/ dubs then went back to his macbook. Wonder what's up.

Where was this at?
Its likely its suttin to do with the turntables, or unless he's playing material he hasn't cut, like you said if it wasn't dubstep and more ambient/vocal stuff, no point cutting it really.

Well, here: (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_McGann) it says the guys name is Paul McGann. Here (http://www.sonicrouter.com/2011/04/sr-m ... ure-skank/), Kahn says his name is Joseph McGann. On the wikipedia page, it says Paul McGann has 2 sons - Joe and Jake. Jake is also an actor. None of their pages say anything about Bristol...

I saw Paul McGann in the Jazz Cafe before for J Dilla's band tribute thing, Well I think it was him, I recognised him form TV but didnt know who he was for ages lol
