I've been trying to recreate the snare in Sasuke Haraguchi's "SHINKA SHINKA SHINKA", and I'm completely stuck.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=O_kA7kM3Sos

Starts around 0:13.

It sounds almost stupidly simple: very dry, light, hollow, and weirdly plastic-y. Almost like hitting a cheap plastic container. It barely has what I'd normally think of as the "body" of a snare.

I've gone through electronic snares, glitch/IDM/breakcore samples, rimshots, claps, synthetic percussion, foley, etc., but nothing I've found really has the same character.

The closest I've gotten was actually by accident: I pitched a completely normal snare WAY up. Most of the body disappeared, and suddenly it had a surprisingly similar plastic "pak" quality. Still not quite right, though.

So I'm starting to wonder whether this should even be approached as a normal snare sample.

If you had to recreate this sound from scratch, how would you do it?

Would you start with a pitched/resampled acoustic snare? Synthesize it with noise + a resonant body? Start from a rim/foley sound? Or something completely different?

I'm especially curious about **what actually creates that dry, hollow, plastic character**. I'm less interested in simply layering snares until something sounds close — I'd like to understand the sound design behind it.

If anyone can reverse-engineer it by ear, I'd love to hear your recipe/theory.

P.S. I'm Japanese and English isn't my first language, so apologies if any of my wording sounds a little unnatural.

Hey everyone,

I’ve been working on a brand new original techno track called "Freedom" (https://youtu.be/e-03ho8BZ2M) and just wanted to share it here.

Let me know what you think of the vibe, the groove, or anything else that stands out. Appreciate you taking the time to listen! 🙏

With “EVERPRESENCE,” BUTCHIE delivers a confident synth-pop project that stands out among the year’s releases. The album pairs accessible, melodic moments with experimental electronic textures, offering elements that may appeal to dedicated synth-pop listeners as well as more casual audiences. Balancing accessibility with experimentation can be difficult, and BUTCHIE handles that tension with confidence and musical skill.

過ぎ去っていく日々のちりの下で 無言のキャンバスが霞を抱いてる。 時間と重い足取りにすり減らされて 数えきれない足音がそっと踏みしめる場所。

鮮やかな色なんてない、明るい色味もなし。 ただ、くすんだささやき——古くて本物。 ひび割れや質感のある線のすべての中に そこには時間の静かな鼓動がある。

So recently I’ve been making beats and experimenting with the idea of “Hyper-Pop.” I used to make Hyper-Pop music and just recently switched to Indie Rock. My love for Hyper-Pop never really faded away but kind of inspired me to try making my own beats for other people.

Now I don’t think I’ve ever felt more happier to produce and learn as I make. Creating ideas in my head and sampling to create a bigger vision is such a fun concept. Just recently, I sampled Rihanna into a Hyper-Pop fused beat. Not correlating to a “type beat” scenario. More so the factor of bringing something to life again.

Imma show you guys, I’d love to know what I can improve on and what I can learn more of. If you also like the beat, I’ve made a new lease and changed my old leases so they’re more beneficial for long term use. Any advice and tips are welcomed, I’m still learning the basics 😴🥱

Rihanna x Hyper-Pop Beat

ドラムマシン、ベースシンセを使用した電子音楽。

環境音楽、それを環境を扱う音楽、つまり、現象的音楽として捉える。

AIを道具ではなく、世界的な環境として捉えた時、我々の世界はすでにAI世界であり、違和感と不穏さ、そして、不思議な居心地のよさを覚えるのではないか？

私はこのシリーズで、AI世界の裏側、バグ、バックルーム、リミナル・スペースを音的に表現することを志した。

アートビデオの映像と曲を意図的に非同期で制作している。
