So here's a weird problem.
I'm trying to create a dance track entirely out of non-musical objects. So far it's worked well - heavy books for the kick drums, pots for the snares...you get the idea, and after processing it sounds great. But I'm having trouble with the ba**.
I'm trying to create a big, ballsy dance ba** sound, and am not having much luck. Initially I thought a blender would give me the right tone, but it's too mid-range content and is nowhere near full enough. Short of micing up a washing machine, I'm a bit stumped.
My one other thought, given that electronic ba** sounds are normally a result of oscillators, is to find some natural tones to combine - but again, I'm clueless as to what generates these.
Anybody got any thoughts? What natural objects make a ba** sound? Daliq, where you at?

pluck a thick rubber-band and turn up the wave, see how it sounds, depending on how much you stretch it, you can change the pitch. Hope that helps.
