What is your favorite item to sample for a bassdrum, like for example, a telephone pole, or like throwing a box at a wall?

Ohhh this seems fun
Maybe hitting one with a hammer?
Hitting a stone with another stone.
I saw a video where Bjarki was sampling stones for kickdrums. I love Bjarkis kicks!
Hitting one of these on the slide surface with a rubber hammer.
Or better yet a wooden carrier crate, large one.

Love this question. I did a whole kick drum focused mix/edit many years ago. Hard to pick a favourite but sampling the SH101 always delivers.
Here is an hour of kick drums: Mixcloud

Listen, the joke is funny, but twitter is affectively dead and taken over by trolls, racists, bigots and nationalists as of this week. Lets keep Elektronauts safe and fun because… honestly, theres nowhere else to go now.

I save myself a lot of wasted time by just going straight to sampling my head banging against a brick wall.
Sounds pretty good to be fair.

Sounds like a limiter is critical.

LMFAO, I guess that would work, maybe against a washing-machine might work pretty well.
