    all these questions?

    When I talk about a structured drum, I meant that you need to stick to basic drumming and, afterward, you can mix it up... If I remember correctly, you use FLstudio... so.... try this: In a 16 dots pattern: Kick on 1 and 9 Snare on 5 and 13 Hihat on every odd dot (1,3,5,7...) (as...

    non-musical sources of inspiration?

    It has to do with music in a way, but "sounds" would be it... Sometimes, I hear a sound, any sound... like a broken glass or the sound of my feets on the gravel, and, because of other ideas in my head, it generates a beat... Also, it's been said, but emotions and environment are a big...

    all these questions?

    Actually, depending on the type of beat you do, you can use the hihat to give the tempo of the beat (its speed) or you can use it sparsly... exemple: If you want, the hihat can follow the metronome. That's what in most hiphop tracks. So that would mean you would have 8 or 16 hihat hits in one...

    That's good, cuz he was like: "In NY, Diddy was voted the best beatmaker"... and all... I was kind of surprised there... I know he did some nice remixes and all thought. So could he be considered the best remixer? I wouldn't give him that... to me, that has to be Missy

    Happy 4th of July *Hater Free Thread

    ^^^^yeah... and a couple of concerts too, actually. The same as Independance day... Actually, where I live, in Quebec, it wasn't that big of a deal. They party on the 24th (they, as the Quebecers... which I dont consider myself to be... but that's an whole other story) because it's La St-Jean...

    I had a discussion with my cuz from NY. He was saying that P. Diddy (or whoeverr does his beats) was the greatest at taking original samples and flipping them properly... I was saying DJ Premier was no 1, but I wonder what y'all think...

    The state of black women today

    I'm not against what you said, but some stuff you're saying leaves a sour taste in my mouth... The state of black women IS damaged, that's true. But even if the media is responsable for some of the damage, it is, in the same way, responsible for the damage on the black man's image. I mean...

    Afro Cuban

    Latin percussions... like cuban? You should look for african percussions instead... the vibe is not the same at all, Rara sounds raw, unpolished, and even out of tone sometimes (it's really peculiar...) Boukman is an old group (like the standard in rara...) but most rara today sounds...

    Ill Glossary...

    Having one specially for the effects... or having some separations between different topics would be better... For instance, I didn't know there was an effect that could cut the reverb... If you want, I can do the research and find all those, but I'm sure it would be better if someone more...

    I just read a thread on a plugin I didn't know about... and that happened a lot since I'm here. I think a lot of cats here know a whole lot about effects and generators... If someone could find a website where most of those are explained, that would be nice... Lets start with the basics...
