   [FONT=Geneva]Hi, cool dj's & composerz!
   Could somebody tell me how this beat has been made?
   May be, some special effects...
   May be, special drumkits... I DONT KNOW...

   eh you have the kicks and snare with their own rythem, maybe some other [hidden] hi hats adding to the rythem of the kicks and snare [too much reverb and delay to tell]. then you have two hi hats: the second is pitchbended or at a higher tone than the first; both are heavily processed with reverb/delay/etc.
   
   Pretty simple just processed in a way that makes it kinda hard to understand.

   Ya it is kinda simple, just processed alot.

   What do you mean - processing a lot??
   BTW, what does our main trancerz (t[]c) think?

   The beat is most likely made from several drumloops that they sliced and processed through a compressor / EQ / Limiter....
   
   Slices are then re-arranged and layered to 'change' the actual beat.... In addition to that I'm pretty sure they added a bassdrum to create the sort of slow softness to the whole theme.
   
   Just what I think
   
   Just out of the blue: Crystal Method - Vegas is an awesome album from a mad set of producers (Think they're from Las Vegas, CA - USA) so mad props to them.
   
   Best,

   Hey all,
   
   I also got the Vegas album. Bad Stone is the best song on there by a long shot, imo...
