The Zero-G amen is an exact copy of the original without the annoying 'brass' sound on the first hit.

the original Amen also needs loads of processing to phatten it up.

The way to pimp it is to slice it and replace each hit with a meater sample. The kick and snare in particular seem to me to always need attention. The cymbals are fine imo...

I agree, chop the amen up and then layer fatter kicks and snares over the top. BINGO!

^this. The amen sounds surprisingly rough on its own. The Remarc tracks that you heard had probably had a lot of work put into them, he is the master of the amen at the end of the day.

if you fancy digging for the original its on the other side of "Color Him Father" by The Winstons:

happy chopping! :z:

best to process yourself bud so you can get the sound you're after. personally i don't prefer layering any other hits over it unless that's the sound i'm going for. i generally like to keep it original, high pass at the kick, bring up the snare and cymbals a bit, and then distort/compress to make it fatter. there are plenty of processed amens out there, but i don't like working with them cause most of them are already limited. the one from bourbon breaks is the cleanest you'll get as it's a cd rip.

here's a link to it:

Surely if all you want is a cleaner amen then you should just clean it yourself?

I mean, not being funny or anything but if you want something 'off the shelf' you may as well go the whole hog and make a tune entirely of presets and pre-rex'd breaks. You aren't learning anything by just using stuff that is already done for you, and learning is half the fun!

If you insist though, track down Firestorm Breaks. Great sample CD, loads of different amens on there. Seriously though, you will benefit a lot more from DIY :)

well i deleted the files i had up. they weren't "twisted" as you say. they were the original break and a couple with eqing/process/cleaning up. what you want is someone to eq something for you to your tastes and that's not gonna be possible unless they're in your head. get better headphones or monitors or pay an engineer to do your mixdowns for you from stems.
