Thank you for posting with audio, I just sampled this and used it for a hi-hat sound in a techno track I'm working on.

MOOOAR!!!!

I'm always appreciative when people leave the audio of a clip alone and don't add some blaring idiotic song, person screaming, or an echoing fart while someone points up from the corner so we know they're involved somehow. It's a low bar, but I respect people who can just leave the clip alone.

Back in my day when not everything had some type of remix, it was actually funny when people added audio. Funny how times change with the generations.

I highly recommend investing in a cheap handheld audio recorder to take your own samples. Will be much higher quality than internet audio turned converted a few times for becoming an mp3/aac again. But then again I’m an audio snob.

I use a sp404mk2 for field work, the compression YouTube applies is annoying. I totally get it :-)

I know it might seem crazy but I think I could survive this. I've always known my whole life that I was built differently. /s

How does one get a job operating something like this. I feel like I could krunch rebar all day for a living
