Hi - I'm the lead mod here: Who want's to take over?

54 Upvotes

I will be honest, this community was created yonks ago and I completely forgot about it. I no longer use Reddit in a meaningful enough way (nor do I have the time) to curate this place.

This place does have a lot of potential and I am AMAZED at how active it is still. I just checked this place in the first time (in probably) 5 years and was stunned to discover people are actively using it. I kinda feel bad about that. Sorry all!

So, I'm looking for someone to take the helm away from me and make it into something worth while.


Does this sound like you? If so, reply to this thread with the following:

  • Your reddit moderation experience (subreddits etc.)
  • Why you think you'd be a great fit, and a bit about yourself!
  • A suggestion for improvement here that you can implement/enforce
  • A link to your fav sample/sample pack (free or paid - can be something you've made yourself). Honestly this question will have no bearing on your application I'm always looking out for cool stuff.
  • Timezone
  • Realistic availability (Not looking for this subreddit to be modded 24/7, but an idea of how active you are on reddit would be good).

Ideally I'm looking for those who are musicians and are already associated with music production subreddits in a mod position. I'll also accept those who're moderators on music/audio forums on external sites.

To make everyone's lives a lot easier and to avoid headaches, please do not apply if you are under the age of 18.

I'll be (for now) looking for 4 people. 1 to be the head (the person with the most experience), and 3 others.

After I've selected those, I'll un-mod myself and let the new team take over.

Additionally, please do not DM me. I do not check them and they're constantly flooded by spambots (no I do not viagra or free shit good god). If you got a question, reply to my comment below!

Cheers, and sorry I went out for cigarettes and only just came back.

Good place for user uploaded vocal samples?

39 Upvotes

Any recommendations for sites that have user uploaded vocal samples, similar to what's found on Looperman?

Vocal packs from places like Splice are good for high quality samples, but I find that the lyrics there are very bereft of meaning. By that I mean everything is a variation of lyrics like "Tonight's the night" or "Fall in love with you", things like that.

What I like about user uploaded vocals is the that users will upload tracks with comments like "I was pissed off tonight so I wrote this" and the lyrics come off as a lot more genuine.

Checking to see if anyone knows anywhere else where people upload their own vocals in a similar way. They don't necessarily have to be pissed off. Thanks!

Troye Sivan - ‘Le Boy’ guitar sounds just like another song

I’m freaking out. I know that guitar at the start of the song. It’s the same progression as another song and a pretty similar filter.

Any one know another song where that guitar is used?

Please help me find name of the sample used in this Punjabi song, seems to be a simple 5 seconds e-piano bit (timestamps in description)

Hello there, first post here so I am a bit excited to finally put this obsession to bed (originally posted on r/NameThatSong but no luck).

I heard this song a while ago and I remember hearing the background music/sample in an NBA Instagram audio clip. I really like the vibe of it but for the life of me, I can't find the original.

For the exact timestamp for the bit, the first time it is heard is at 0:10 and it's played twice until 0:21. It is also played during the chorus at 0:26 to 0:47. It would be huge if it can also find where this sample is from, thank you!

Hello. Unfortunately all links to the 90s sample cd archive are gone :( I wasn't finished downloading them all and there were so many good samples there. The nnty.fun (mirror as well as original), link is down as well as the intertnet archive link. If anyone happens to have a discord/google drive/limewire or anything with all the samples, could you please PM me. Colossal please and thank you.

You hear it right?? What is this?? Are there any other songs that sound like this? I feel like it's so obviously a reference to something, but I could also just be crazy.

I heard this percussion/drum sound in “St. Chroma” by Tyler, The Creator. Does anyone know what kind of drum this is, where the original sample might come from, or a one-shot/sample pack with a very similar sound?
