Making of "The Prodigy - Smack My Bitch Up" in Ableton by Jim Pavloff
Jim Pavloff
Jim Pavloff rebuilds the Prodigy track Smack My Bitch Up in Ableton, identifying the samples used and recreating the track by hand.
Recommended as a fun, in-depth look at how sampling and music production work, and as proof that skilled humans can reconstruct tracks from scratch.
