my first "beatmaking video"
Good on ya for putting yourself out there Dusty. I enjoyed the vid. It was engaging, funny, educational without being stuffy, etc. And the length was perfect, short and sweet without a bunch of filler. When you doing your first unboxing vid?- Leopard Cohen

Dear Ann Landers, I have concerns. If I make a trap song, will I end up like this? I hear that trap is a gateway genre to mumbling and becoming mentally retarded. --- Cinderella Hopeful- Leopard Cohen

How much mixing do "pro" producers do themselves?
Which is exactly why I turn to beatmaking videos when I'm in a rut ;) 20 mins of watching someone else chop up samples and lay down a track, I'm like "where's my sampler?!?"- Leopard Cohen

So what’s the point anymore?
My day job is in tech and I'm so sick of all the hype around AI . . . It's a tool. It can do some cool stuff, but it's not what people think it is. Everyone is focusing on generalized, end-to-end stuff - give it a prompt and get something back or get unsolicited content or design suggestions...- Leopard Cohen

When You're Not In The Beat-making Mood
These are great tips, thanks @BiggChev ! Sounds like we have similar approaches - when I'm in a rut I'll just make drum loops or learn new production techniques or features of my tools. Maybe you've experienced the same thing, but some of my own tracks that I like most have been happy...- Leopard Cohen

Are there any distinct styles?
Yeah, I get what you're asking. But does it matter if the joint that you're into was made this year? Or last year? Or 60 years ago? Every form of music during the past 40 years has been influenced by hiphop and hiphop is influenced by everything else. Does it matter that it's called crunk or...- Leopard Cohen

Are there any distinct styles?
I'm still a relative noob to making beats but I've been listening to hiphop for a long-ass time. The internet (and tech in general) is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, as consumers we've got access to more music than ever. We can pay for it, we can pirate it, we can stream it. It's not...- Leopard Cohen

Sticky Beat This! Theme Suggestions
Rebirth, emerging from hibernation, beginning a new cycle, rain and sun in equal parts, etc. If it was a De La joint, I'd say more Daisy Age than A Rollerskating Jam called Saturdays.- Leopard Cohen

There was one that had a Kid Koala vibe, that got my vote - dusty and hard-hitting. Imma have to go back and listen again. Edit - Fuuuuuuuuck, that's some good shit. Whoever made that, I tip my hat to you. Lots of other solid beats this time around, stuff that reminds me of Pete Rock or Dilated...- Leopard Cohen
