But that's what I was always thinking: a decent musician should be able to make hip hop beats within a few hours. It's not that hard, unless you're not a musician.
But that guy has a marvellous feeling (no homo). He plays the right instruments too. (He must be rich - playing a near mint Rhodes, a good guitar, all that equipment, all the records in his Expedit.)
explain that. what are you missing?
Damn!! Isn't it clear!??
:Eh!: :WAX WAX: :Eh!:
Nah! Seriously, don't ask me what I think about that video, nor the beat! Thank you.
seriuosly, why? that ugly?
i cant say i agree with this at all. it IS that hard to make a GOOD hip hop beat. yeah anybody can make A hip hop beat. sometimes i feel when a "musician" is making hip hop beats, they tend to be too "musician" about it and not raw enough.
and this brings me to my next point - anybody with all of this shit can make a hip hop beat sound nice. that doesn't mean they make the best hip hop beat, but it means that the more proper your equipment is the more likely your shits gonna sound clean, as long as you know how to work all your shit. you can have the best instruments and gear in the world but if your shit doen't have that edge to it, it's gonna go in one ear and out the other.
I understand that. But seriuosly, what do you think of that beat. Review it. Honestly, I think it's cool. There's nothing wrong about it.
I think he's still doing well. It's not easy to work that quick and still get the sound right. (Although I still think a "real" musician would son him anytime.)
His beat is lacking that certain edge?
What am I missing? I don't see, for real!!
And please, don't say I'm a
I don't see nor hear something special.
BAPT
Yeah.
That dude is talented, though. He must be pretty paid too judging from the $1000's of dollars worth of equipment and instruments he had in there.
I think it was cool but yeah, it was lacking something. It sounded kind of over produced and too clean. That's just my opinion. I think he's got skills though. Now I'm gonna go bite that little hi-hat trick he did.
AYO
haaahahahahaaa
the more I watch it with the "AYO" underneath the funnier that shit is
Do you mean that this is a "Eyh! Y'all I got beats" kind of thread...? Nahmsayin?
sayin'!
for a quick beat making tutorial, it's pretty decent. i wouldn't be able to work quick like that. but then again, i'm no musician. haha
yes, the certain edge is missing. i wasn't going to say that the beat is perfect or anything. but he's skilled. i think he could do pretty good stuff. with his equipment and his skills.
bapt, i know you're not hating, but i'm no producer. so i was trying to understand what other beatmakers would say to his stuff.
clean sound = mpc 2000?
Shit no! It has to do with the way he recorded his instruments. I did the same thing years ago trying to sample them and use them in a beat. For some reason the grittiness gets lost unless you use some kind of external effects before hand.
just kidding.
haha... looks like a traditional Bavarian instrument.
How does a clip of Ph*l A**er's son on MPC make it onto the internet?
This is probably my favourite MPC related video
