    So my sampling is going alright for this. But I've not done with it what I intended. And that bothers me. I also think I could do far far more with the way it's going... however... as always... if it's going kind of alright, then I don't bother making it harder to try get something incredible.

    Sources was saying it's a minor. But I didn't think so e min is pretty easy, just don't play F.

    Jokes aside, I really struggle with sampling. Minus the fact that my Warzone win was all beats using sampling. Can't get around the fact that all the parts are together so end up with like a perc and a bass and a guitar as well as the vocal or whatever. Gets in the way and all out of time shit...

    Reference tracks

    Wave should be fine. You could probably get away with high quality mp3. If you plan to have a vocal on your beat, then it may be best to reference a track that has a vocal. If you plan to release it as an instrumental record, then probably an instrumental. Though you could probably still get...

    Reference tracks

    Same Cause I'm too lazy. It's too fiddly However when I have tried it sometimes it feels odd. Have made like several dBs of adjustments and still couldn't figure out if the balance matched. The other issue I have is trying to find a reference that matches your beat. I think it can be tricky...

    I think the biggest waste of it is me not releasing anything. and me not being in the NBA.

    Uh oh. If primz has got a new juiced up machine, when I get my juiced up machine, you can all go back to losing full time.

    Loving the healthy and detailed discussion. One of the best post-battle discussions to date.

    Just clarifying I've literally taken zero offence (in case it was mistaken) and I know what you're saying. Where I'm at currently, is two parts 1) I've had a hard time enjoying making music lately, whether making a new genre, or trying to over analytically make something new. Afrobeat. Alt pop...

    Exactly. But this is what I mean also. In a slight counter argument to 2gs comments. That if you're making xyz genre or style. You kinda have to use a specific set of rules and sounds. So then therefore nothing is really that original. Re that point - I've never listened to an Ice Cube record...

    Uniqueness. Not being typical of what came before it

    I don't think it'd be like that. It'd more likely be like how you suggest. No ones likely to blow up making other peoples beats. I don't wanna bother thinking about innterms of trap. It's all the same. So in that case it's purely marketing. But generally, you'd otherwise be doing your own...

    I'll be honest, I don't know the last time I can say I've heard something original sounding.

    Yeah my headphones are extra bassy (like some +20DB low shelf or something insane. But it's good because it gives the vibe of club speakers. So if your bass is too runaway you will reaaally hear it and the clashes. However I realise on phone I have EQd my output. Only a little. But on PC it...

    Appreciate it! Not sure re the bass. Chucked a pretty toney compressor on it hit with two stages of compressed. Also hit it with some tape saturation too. In my headphones my bass is sounding the biggest here (in a Not good way). So not sure whats going on tbh. My monitoring for this things...
