What are the noisey elements in this kind of techno tracks？

[entropy94]

Sorry if I sound dumb asking this question。

But I have been a fan of this 90s style of Techno,

When the sub hits at 0:56, there is this airy noise element. I am not sure what type of percussion it is. Is it shakers? I dont think it is a 16th note roll of close hat. Its not as sharp as a closed hat

This type of layer is quite commonly found in DJ Boss, and a lot of 90s techno tracks.

Appreciate any tips... there are lots of thread about the kick and sub, but not this part. Maybe it is obvious to a lot of people, but I can't find this sound from my drum machines.

Shakers with swing and saturation could be a good place to start

It really is shakers！ appreciate the reply！

The question is already answered, but just wanted to say thanks for turning me onto this track!

Absolutely this, but also adjusting the velocity of each hit and then probably some bus compression to get everything pumping nicely helps a lot with the groove too.

I also didn't know this track - what a banger! Thanks

In that example it's a loop.
Sounds like a combination of shaker and cabasa. Might even be a touch of tambourine in that loop.

That gritted up sound is probably a combination of old school sampling, (pitch sample up twice as fast, then record into sampler and play at half speed), and hard compression.

Swing/shuffle too.
