Summary
Producer and sound designer Decap’s ‘Drums That Knock’ are all over some of the biggest hits of the last 10 years. The reporter doesn't think the reporter is going to hurt anyone’s feelings by pointing out that Decap doesn’t have the name recognition of Kendrick Lamar, Olivia Rodrigo, or Charli XCX. Nicholas Piantedosi, better known as Decap, is a record producer, but perhaps more importantly, he’s the man behind Drums That Knock, a series of sample packs that have found their way onto countless records across genres. Unsurprisingly for a man so obsessed with low-end, he’s got a real beef to pick with phone speakers. A soft clipper can give your drums that warm analog sound, or it can make them hit super hard.
