This cat breaks down his thought process in a clear way. A lot of nuggets of good info in this...

Part 1:


Part 2:

neither parts showing for me. i have windows vista and it's been givin me a lot of problems lately. really want to see what this dude has to say.

this post doesn't work.There aren't videos!

It isn't Vista which is guilty!!!

Please repair the problem!

fixed.

I really, really liked this one! Thank You!

NICE! Professionally done - MAJOR PROPS!!!

I love  hearing beats in the making .You naturally want to Know the final outcome but , when I think Ok...oK it needs this he went a whole diff direction and its shaping up really good.
Props on the Documentry type feel ...

yeah i loved the different approach on this one, as 'homebrew' said, real documentary-type feel, and it worked good too
whats the track hes sampling? i wanna take a stab at it

really wanted to see this one.... LINKS DEAD!!! :<

Question: How much would it cost for me to get a setup just like what this guy has? All I have is my windowsXP machine, 32'' monitor, and my keyboard has my piano keys. using FLStudio, Protools, MXL900 mic, and my closet. but my beats are suffering so bad and i use the fact that i dont have the right equipment as an excuse. (its probally just lack of skill).

but if i could get a setup like this guys, im confident i could bang out some better stuff. any comments?

cold as ice

TBH, I was expecting a lot better given that title. The sampling is probably the least important/creative aspect of that piece. He had loads of really good stabs and notes to pick from and then he settles for some fairly nondescript chord modulation loop. Also, "The world is a ghetto" is hardly digging in the crates.

Just my opinion - props to the guy for putting the video out there to keep the discussion alive.

this sample used also by bonethugsnharmony - real ni**as dono the producer never looked for it

that synth at the end tottaly killed it
