    scrapping a song

    Yeah you could be used to your own joints, but you need to tell your boy to cue all of his joints up and just press play, and you fast fwd till you feel one of the for you...feel me....? you will never force yourself over a beat that either doesnt flow or isnt your style....regardless of the...

    ny oil interview/ discussed before?

    Yeah Davey D is a legend I have aimed him and spoke to him before, it was good to hear this song and the artist but in my own opinion he is reaching back and calling on the old groups and activists to come back when really they should already be here in new forms and artists but they really...

    when overchopping destroys the loop...

    Yeah this is the part that makes or breaks the joint, seamless loops go a long way espcially if its not monotous.

    when overchopping destroys the loop...

    yeah he is right to an extent but remember this, 9th is that dude of today that brought back that dope soul sound adding his own touch but all of his methods still come from the likes of Pete Rock and original hip hop innovators (not emulators), so I would do myself a favor and break out the...

    basslines vs melody

    everyone is on point with their posts, but I was once told by someone that produces hip hop for some big names, if you are doing anything remotely close or to be interpreted as hip hop or genre for urban the Bassline and drums must stick and carry the song thruout and the bassline should be...

    Skitzo

    Shadeed is doing his thing, I think it's good to have real input, and actually well formed input, him and Wings are some very organized writers, the thing is their articles beat a lot of the ones I read in the mags where cat's is getting paid from them.. anyhow its so easy to hate but if you not...

    What am I Doing wrong w/ Reverb

    just my opinion, I would either record everything dry with absolutely no FX or very little at all.....then at mix time apply FX to each individually tracked audio file with either a bundled effect like waves or depending on your Application, protools or cubase, process fx then for each track as...

    Who controls the session?

    Yeah and I got one that said "he who use quantize will always be on time" lol I couldn't help myself to that.
  13. bigdmakintrax

    Who controls the session?

    Yep exactly, but in most situations in the basement or in the case of most producers on our level, you got the engineer/producer rolled into one, you gonna have the workflow strictly between the producer and the artist, so it comes down to who has the most experience and who knows more about...

    Who controls the session?

    I have been in session with some seasoned emcees and the first timers as well as seasoned engineer sessions also I sat in on, it all depends, the experience factor definitely comes in at the top of the list as the factor, but a producer that knows how to handle an emcee in a session, communicate...

    Been in that dillema for quite some time, have tons of tracks that I sold to the hard workers and then the not so hard.... thing is if I haven't signed someone, I only sell the track to em or whatever, don't do any recording for the most part I let them handle that or take it to a studio, I...

    File Size Reduction

    If you are exporting to 16bit, 44khz...they should average somewhere in the range of 10MB per minute of wav you have....a 4 minute joint should be around 40MB or so...

    How long does it take for Production on a Track

    It could be hit or miss but a combination of the right elements put together at the right time can come out hot, this randomness might not take any longer than 15 or 20 minutes, especially if you know the elements you want to use off the break....but see that 2 week beat, looking for the right...

    November 22-25, 2006 - ROUND 3: Hardboiled vs. DJ X-Sinna

    both of these beats were ok, imma go with hardboiled on the hip hop edge, too much original loop on that joint for me and not enuff Sinna good beats though.

    November 22-25, 2006 - ROUND 3: Ash Holmz vs. 5th Sequence

    Ash nice beat, remindful to me of a 90's loop dancer beat it was hot not a lot of switch ups though but it did the job....5th I like your joint too though I see what you were aiming at with that offbeat thing like maybe Kev Brown style to an extent or Pete Rock....study it some more you need...
