    Sampling from Vinyl VS Sampling Lossless Files?

    It depends on the recording, i like old stuff so loseless versions are probably digitaly remastered from vinyl which can be good or bad. Sampling from vinyl is as good as the recording medium, s950 or high end converter capture different obviously. Either way get the job done and when sampling...

    A new way to look at smoking weed

    I hear ya, some people shouldnt smoke weed at all and definitly at a later age paranoia is a common one. The worst you can do when smoking weed is to be passive, i know enough kids that do nothing but smoke and game on the couch all day. This will surely add some grey braincells but if you keep...

    Dubstep production in hip-hop music?

    well the best i can say is leave the hoovers out, use some bell/piano like synth sounds instead to accompany the basslines. The clip above points it out again, dude isnt the rapper, but the master of ceremony and only when he stops rapping it becomes dubstep.

    Do you "songwrite" when you create a beat, or do you just make the beat?

    I dont structure beats, unless the mc is writing while i compose.. Else i just have the barebone of the track which just be 1 bar since laying out the whole is better when you have the vocals.

    Dubstep production in hip-hop music?

    God, what we need is phil spector because he knows how to sell the wall of sound commercialy hehe. I know what you're saying, for this to work you must compose properly and get into war with loudness. I'd know exactly where you'd have to take account in composing and the only exception you could...

    Is Rap Music Dead?

    lol...cool talk but the Wu did venture into rnb-land quite a few times. --- Hiphop is dead because the industry made it so... Hiphop is dead because consumers are lazy... Hiphop is dead because the "market" is saturated... Hiphop is dead because technology is for everyone... God, why dont...

    A new way to look at smoking weed

    Me neither, and i do smoke...People come up with the funniest excuses why they (need) to smoke weed, like stating they sleep better at night. What weed does, at best, is take the focus off everything and lets you reason what is relevant, at that moment. On a more personal note, weed prohibits...

    Dubstep should not be called "DUB"

    Early dubstep, not the skrillex, like had the same layout as dub - slow breaks with deep basslines and a tad bit of guitar/vocal fed to the dubmixer who orchestrates the whole. Good dub breathes loads of headroom, or at least sound like its drum and bass in a huge space. That being said, the...

    Avid Selling M-Audio

    Both companies suck bigtime imo, M-Audio has had the worst products ive come across. The difference with Behringer is that their support is much better. To note on that, watch out when you buy stuff and the resellers have to switch dealerships to follow the brand. A lot of resellers will stick...

    Dubstep production in hip-hop music?

    Nothing "real" hiphop related, imo, the role of a rapper becomes the original role of MC because most tracks are to dominating to spit over . example Noisia take the rapper in account in their production(s), so they produce tracks that leave room for the lyrics aside from the hook...

    The new ILL...

    Yeah true, but keep an eye on new members that can grow into this, i think the idea is still viable and unique for producer forum. The artist pages could add trophy beats for beats uploaded and used in battle and additional battle stats. This adds to that a good rating system that promotes...

    Its about damn time!

    nice! Just burn a copy of the win 7 installer to disc. Run Bootcamp manager and make some room for a windows partition. Thing should go by itself from there on. If it seems that windows install doesnt catch up after reboot, boot up and hold c and select the windows partition to finish install.

    Where to find 'older' sounding synths?

    How Far Do you Push Your Loudness?

    First the usual bitching... Without the proper monitoring conditions, anything you do means nothing. Trying to achieve the loudest master possible in shitty conditions just ends up in making compensations to make it sound good on your speakers, in your room. I should make this my disclaimer...

    Where to find 'older' sounding synths?

    hmm, 2 out of 3 giving him the benefit of doubt since he didnt put out the any model Rhodes so... Rhodes Chroma & Chroma Polaris OT, just buy a real cheap analogue synth and call it a day since it will beat any plugin soundwise
