So, Simteks and I decided to put out a sample pack, “North Korean Neuro Bass Bombz From Outer Space,” and a couple days later I decided, “Well, gee golly wiz, I should google this shit, an see what comes up… After a couple minutes I found this fucking hilarious tumblr account somebody made for a bunch of their photo’s (doctored? not doctored? who knows!!!) of Kim Jong Il popping up at unexpected raves and parties, dropping the bass like you wouldn’t believe. I didn’t realize he played such an integral role in modern bass music!
And here are some more of the photos I discovered on that tumblr….
Here he is, getting his groove going..
Oh snippety-snap, that dude hangs out with Daft Punk? Wow..
I can only assume this is at some sort of Premier for the release of Simteks and StrangeFlow’s Neuro Bass Bombz From Outer Space Samples package! Available blow..
Yep, you heard correct! The illustrious Simteks (who not only mods GlitchHopForum.com but also invented SimteksMusic.com) has teamed up with StrangeFlow (creator of Bassadelic, and inventor of many funky glitch hoppy bass gems) to give the world something truly special.
So, the story goes like this… Strange and Sims journeyed to East Asia, specifically, to North Korea. Why? In search of bass bombz, of course! I can’t legally say that these two are spies, but… well… they’re spies… space-spies…
They captured the bass bombz, and as it turns out they’re not weapons of mass destruction, they’re weapons of mass neuro-tastic funkgasmic bass! And They want to offer them, now, to the public!

Question: Who is responsible for this filth?
Answer: Simteks and StrangeFlow, champions of music production and music blogging!
We have teamed up, in this most-unholiest of sample products, North Korean Neuro Bass Bombz From Outer Space!
Simteks is known for his incredible music production website (SimteksMusic.com) as well as for his high-powered bass-killing electronic music – and for his skills in the field of audio
mastering. StrangeFlow is known for his funkified and forward-thinking electronic music, as well as for his website (Bassadelic.com) a blog for music producers.
The two teamed up to put these North Korean Neuro Bass Bombz into a series of .WAV files, and these samples are ready to be plugged into your DAW immediately, and shoot insane bass-fire
out onto your dancefloor!
It was our mission to capture a specific sound of modern electronic music… something on the funkier and bass-heavy side of things, including bass riffs and sustains with oscillations, frequency changes and overal sound progressions typical to much of what is considered the,neuro sound.
We have also taken great influence from many artists, including KOAN Sound and Opiuo, just to name a couple. We have nothing but props for these musicians, and for all musicians who
continue to push the boundaries and exptectations of music and sound!
We have added a number of beats and drum samples, as well. All the beats, as well as the bass loops and riffs, are in the 100 BPM to 106 BPM range, allowing the producer the ability to
create funky / neuro midtempo grooves as quickly as possible. Though, it should be noted that you can, of course, speed up the tempos when using these loops, if you want to, and that 100 to 106 BPM is merely the speed at which these sounds were recorded at, and you will find that most of them sound best when played closer to their original tempo (or faster).
In addition to everything else, a number of bass one-shots have been added which are solid and easy to use in production.
We have included some bonus material, as well, which is mostly unrelated to the neuro theme of this package, though these extra samples can be used however you see fit.
These are all .WAV samples, and are compatible with all major devices that allow for use of .WAV files.
There’s nothing else quite like this sample pack out there, and we really hope you enjoy these samples and find them useful!
So how much is this incredible fucking sample pack, StrangeFlow and Simteks?!! We Need to KNOW!
You can pick this thing up for a mere 20 dollars USD.
In case you’re asking, “SIMTEKS, STRANGEFLOW! This all sounds too good to be true but.. wait, what do you mean by ‘neuro’ exactly? Can you give me an example of a song that already exists that reflects the funky/neuro/midtempo – ish bassy electronic aesthetic you guys were going for?”
OF COURSE! Here, listen to some to these sounds below, and you’ll get an idea of what we mean when we’re talking about the neurofunk / bassy midtempo electronic stuff…
SimTeks & StrangeFlow are teaming up to drop the dopest neuro samples possible, on an unsuspecting world… get ready…
That’s right, its coming, and its coming soon! Be the first to know by clicking the FOLLOW button now! :)
Inspired by the work of KOAN SOUND and OPIOU (just to name a couple) Strange and Sim are putting their skills to work, developing something that will be incredibly fun and helpful for aspiring EDM musicians. It is going to be an incredible package, designed for producers in need of some samples and sounds to help them in their music production endeavors.
Stay tuned for more details. They’re going to drop this bomb very soon!
Tell your friends! Tell your enemies: there’s a brand-new StrangeFlow EP – and its f-f-f-f-f-f-frrreeeee!
Yep! Decided to set up a music-release portion of my the site, for any releases I come out with, as well as other fine releases from other awesome artists in the future.. So here is a FRRREEE EP from me, and I hope you enjoy it!
Tried to go in the crunk’d-funk’d-glitch hop direction, kinda strayed into over-funky Chicago juke territory a little bit with the track Trillion Dollar Funk.. My favorite is the track ‘Boom,’ with a nice KRS-One sample and some really fun synth-work and a nice stupid-bass-heavy groove. Overall, the album has enough funk to strangle all remaining bald eagles..
One night, StrangeFlow was grooving so hard, the magnetic poles of the Earth were irreversibly switched, causing a lightning bolt to charge straight through StrangeFlow’s body, ripping open his internal organs and sending him into a funky trance; a perfect bliss-coma of purple-nirvana. Yes, yes – purple blood was everywhere!
It was in this violent purple stupor that StrangeFlow scrambled to his studio, and heroically recorded this glitch hop album, unleashing a series of bass-heavy tunes so electrified and crunktacular that even the casual listener cannot help but be incredibly grooved out and put into a super purple funk trance.
As well as being the first official album released by Bassadelic.com, its also a banger – drawing influences from Chicago juke, old school funk, as well as retaining that futuristic / tripped-out glitch hop crunk sound that StrangeFlow is known for…
Plus, it’s FREE!
..BIG UPS to Simteks for his professional, high quality mastering of this EP!
Yep. Dude’s a wizard. Check out his site, SIMTEKSMUSIC.COM
Once again, you can get the EP for free off of bandcamp…. here or here… or here!
I hope this video was helpful, I made this beat tut for the electronic musician who is determined to learn how to make a juke beat but doesn’t know how to start.
Also, like I pointed out in the video, there are TONS of incredible Chicago juke tracks out there, and I was recommend inundating yourself with them as much as possible if you’re thinking about making any kind of juke music.
Also, check out the footwerk (or footwork) (or footwurk) videos here on youtube. I promise, some of them will blow your mind. Thanks, and happy mixing!
