Anyone know how to make the noise in this Gwen Stefani song?

How to do this, that and the other. Share, learn, teach. How did X do that? How can I sound like Y?

sounds to me like an 808 kick with a long decay, pitching down as it goes.

I'm getting the impression that I might need to see that video to properly appreciate the song. :)

So far, I've only heard that short, online demo clip. It just didn't impress me a whole lot. The vocals have a certain childish, taunting, "schoolyard rant" quality which just doesn't appeal to me. When I was a kid, I most usually heard that tone of voice coming from some half-witted bully, who was trying to start a fight (or trying to put on a good show, hoping they wouldn't have to actually fight, showing everyone what a wimp they really were.)

Then again, that's all just my personal taste. If you fellows like the song, that's fine with me.

I just realized that I've lost far too much sleep recently, and I'm probably not making much sense at this point. :D

take care,

I don't care much for the lyrics of Hollaback Girl or Rich Girl. All this Girling.

Maybe she should fall in love with the drummer of No Doubt this time...have some interesting shit happen to her before releasing an album.

The music/beats are great though.

Or sample an 808 kick drum with a big decay do the above and play it at desired pitch.
Cool. That works too. You're mild overdrive's clipping turns the triangle wave closer to my filtered square. Here's one using 3OSC and Fruity Waveshaper for the fuzz.

Very cool Smart :) Since we have such similar tastes, perhaps we should collab? We could start a private project in the FL collab. Let me know what you think...

hate the song. can't seem to look away when gwen stefani is on the tele screen.
i really hoped the whole album would follow the kind of retro new wave-ish feel of the first single. oh well.
