    I am getting really bored with hip-hop

    oh man, Macklemore already has three radio hits off that record Thrift shop Same love Cant Hold Us He is really blowing up over here and I think it is great! You have to listen to some mainstream for the amazing production. But gosh the lyrical content is so terrible! Oh man I was...

    Is it overkill?

    I dont know that it is overkill, and I am working on becoming more of a minimalist. Sometimes working in different daws can bring some creativity to your brain. That being said I have moved to doing EVERYTHING in Reason, chopping, mixing, mastering. I do like keeping it simple. With R7 I am in...

    I am getting really bored with hip-hop

    oh yea, I listen to tons of music. But the mainstream releases leave me with little to hold on to, "The Heist" with Macklemore has been a beacon of hope!

    I am getting really bored with hip-hop

    The attitudes are so strange, its either...."Everything that isnt boom bap old school sucks" or its "bitches and hoes" with club autotune beats. Man, its driving me nuts. Its time to look forward, hip-hop is an amazing vehicle for change, and to say something, something real about life, not just...

    What's the most you've ever spent on a piece of gear?

    Right on man. Sometimes its best to have a focused setup like that. I have been selling gear like crazy trying to make my life simple again. All those options can hurt your brain!

    What's the most you've ever spent on a piece of gear?

    about 4k for a Mac once, I used it for years so I believe it was. I have spend a few g's on various guitars and amps and I think it was worth it as well. As of late I have been selling most of my gear off. Its amazing how much crap you collect over the years. I want just a few basics and thats...

    Mixing. Get me started

    If you want to do proper mixes get Reason 6. R5 is great but R6 adds the SSL mixer.

    Help, I need better sounds/voices...

    Why not use the internet to gather whatever samples you want and load them in the MPC, and not use the DGX for sounds at all? Do you have a computer that you can use for production? It may be cheaper to get your sounds that way.

    Kanye West's 10 best lines from his new album

    ha ha ha, I personally LOVE deep music that you have to think about. But I do agree, music especially pop music should be fun.

    Kanye West's 10 best lines from his new album

    ok, so I listened to the record like 50 times and I relistened to my dark twisted fantasy and I think I get Yeezus, not saying I like it or that it is good, but I understand why he would do it and musically some of it is a natural progression. Watch his two recent SNL performances then listen to...
