Thanks for revealing a bit of the secrete process. It took a decade plus of trial and error and pulling my hair out to find that perfect sweet spot where you get the crisp loud vocals and very minimal background artifacts. I'm interes…

This basically is hip-hop to me. Roc Raida murders this tape. The patterns are so complex, funky, fast and clean. I could listen to Raida mix 90s hip-hop like this for days on end with a big dumb grin on my face. RIP.

What does Dee Barnes think? She wrote two essays for Gawker on the movie, the first one sparked an apology from Dr Dre. The second one is Barnes' response to the apology: http://gawker.com/heres-whats-missing-from-straight-outta…

Last week I posted a new album/beattape that I made. I'd be curious to hear feedback from the Strut. All boom-bapish sample based stuff. A few raer samples. Some classic material flipped in new ways.

I'm definitely into the idea of trading classic hip-hop acapellas. I have a small collection of rap 12"s with acapellas for cuts and samples. I snap em up whenever I find decent ones. Here's a one that I just ripped: Nas - One Love http://www…

This thread has completely changed my mind about sample libraries in about ten minutes. Every digital sample library I have ever played with was full of B-grade instrumental parts recorded with very little flavor. I thought that sample libraries wer…

It's a solid record and "do it" is a great single, but I wish the album moved more in that direction, with more dynamic arrangements and doo wop elements. Throwback 80s boogie is a crowded field these days and Tuxedo isn't standing out far from the …

This ruling is an overstep of the purpose of copyright and it comes within a long history of copyright-creep. It creates dis-incentives for cultural production without balancing it with meaningful incentives. No one is making music because they thin…

Lines are blurred in this argument because Thicke is such an insufferable doof. It feels like he should pay money to Marvin Gaye's family to make amends for every time they're mentioned in the same sentence. Still, the ruling is bogus. If making der…

My current obsessions are the first two albums by The Books, a two LP set of Mildred Bailey's "greatest performances", Grace Jones - Living My Life, William Onyeabor, and Africa Hitech. I'm also still stuck on J Cole's 2014 Forest Hills Drive. Easil…

No matter what you do, I love all of you like Big Baby Jesus. Never forget that.

I started a thread about this a month ago. I was basically making the point that it's real dumb when the music is so loud that you have to yell in someone's ear to communicate with them. Exited DJs need to realize that they're destroying an enjoya…

amen.

that video of the woman getting tased is kinda funny. anyway... i dont think the tasering was the reason for the chiro work. doesnt it just send electricity through your system? i wouldnt think it would affect individual bones or cartilege or anythi…

Lordy. I'm gonna Yall have a good time wrappin this up.

Dudes getting sore because I said their joke wasn't funny. I love yall. You're all my babies.

Well it was worth a try. I'm not into the "don't mess with the police" argument. Most of us believe in standing up to bullies, but somehow the attitude changes when the bully puts on a blue uniform. I'm also tired of the argument that radical mov…

I haven't had close friends tased, but friends of friends. One of my best friends is handcuffed in the background of this video. He was good friends with the woman who is being tasered. She had to get a couple years of chiropractic therapy to recove…

My personal favorite:

This guy is great when it comes to very clearly explaining and understanding problems in the market. I also think the hosts are right to lean on his political analysis. The whole "Washington made everyone drunk" argument is facile to me. The …

Man I was happy before when a handful of rich white dudes owned everything. :eyeroll:

5 Stars. I love this kind of stuff, but have never dug in deep. This tread'll be a good starting point. I found this on the internets last week: And some one posted this a little while back, i forget who, but many thanks:

These people don't make small talk.

I like the "I'm gonna pose for this picture but act like I'm looking at something else and not really involved in the picture because not really trying to fit in with these two nerds holding drinks because I am way more dark/mysterioso" pose

This is what im really questioning. The "Mainstream American Lifestyle"? Your a Teacher? That's a wonderful gig. But its not like ur a Tranny Bartender @ a Horror-themed restaurant. Just sayin. Its all in context. I'm talking mainstream in the red…
