Yo who produced "Buttons" by the Pussycat Dolls.....its one of the fattest Beatz ever made !!!!
 
Yeah, its ok it was polow, I just looked it up....he's one of the best !
 
Polow did it, and the beat is crazy. drums are crazy, the strings sound real and tight, the guitar.. man, i don't know how he made it sound so perfect.. ChaseNCashe is the Polow dictionary, so he's gonna break it down for os.. and it doesn't sound like a S. storch ripoff..

'Buttons' featuring Snoop Dogg

Writers: Sean Garrett, Jamal Jones, Jason Perry, Nicole Scherzinger
Producers: Sean Garrett, Ron Fair, Polow Da Don.
Co-produced by Tal Herzberg & Young Smoke.
Additional and vocal production: Ron Fair

David Pensado: "The thing about 'Buttons' is that for big chunks of the song, it's just vocals and drums. If you want to find the hook in the song, there's nothing to hide it. It's a work of genius, because it's a pop song reduced to its most basic elements: hook and groove. Polow Da Don played a big part in creating this song, and for this track he'd made up a little drum loop, with just kick drum, handclaps and tom, which is the foundation of the track, and my first focus was to get that loop exactly like it needed to be."

Drum loop transient processing: Waves Trans-X Multi

"Like 'Beep', 'Buttons' was handed to me in different stages. It is Polow's loop that gives the song its bouncy feeling, and I used the Trans-X Multi plug-in to give it more transients. Trans-X [top, right] is a really cool plug-in for creating more attack, and you can split it up in different bands. You can see that I've split it from 0 to 91 cycles, then 91 to 561, and so on, and the two sections where I really tried to restore the punch are low mid-range and the very top end. I suppose Trans-X is the plug-in equivalent of the SPL Transient Designer 4.

"Trans-X is a great plug-in that I also use on vocals. It can also act as a parametric equaliser. Some young girls are not gifted with a lot of high-frequency information, and when they hit a high note, it's all 3kHz and nothing above. So I use Trans-X to get some high-end back. I prefer to use Trans-X as opposed to a regular EQ, because it also gives me harmonics and doesn't just adjust the frequencies.

"Harmonics are probably one of the most important aspects of music — another word for them is distortion. The human ear loves to hear overtones, and the human voice can create complex harmonics. A lot of the Class-A outboard gear tends to be rich in harmonics, and there are very few plug-ins that emulate that. When people criticise plug-ins, it's usually the lack of added harmonics that they're hearing. A couple of plug-in manufacturers have begun making efforts to address this. The Waves SSL Bundle has a button called 'Analogue' and this basically introduces the natural harmonic distortion that SSL gear generated. I think this is the future."

lol...man. This dude just posted a whole TREASURE CHEST worth of information, and it flew right over y'all heads. This is what I don't get. Someone posts some valuable ass information, then some other dude yells out free post, and then some other dude starts talking about Collipark.

I guess you ignore what you don't understand. And I guess I think i'm better than everybody else for saying that... :sigh:



I have that Trans-X plug and the Waves SSL Plugs...I always wondered what that Analog button is for.


Great find. I'll read the rest of this article. I love stuff like this.
