    Beat This! - October 7-8, 2020

    Aaahh Kevin MacLeod... can't tell you how many times I heard this on YouTube.

    Internet Detox

    Excellent decision. Crazy coincidence that I just got back into this internet stuff after a break. I remember when you were like 15 and already dropping truth bombs...

    Beat This! - May 6-7, 2020

    I prefer music from C64 and Amiga games, but I think this can actually work. I've got the "pu t t cshhh" percussion laid out, hope to make it in time.

    @Fade You Should Make Introductions Mandatory

    I think there's definitely value in introducing yourself to the forum and making an account when you're truly ready for it. I've been a lurker for months before I made my account here.

    Anyone know or have samples from Biggies “Notorious Thugs”?

    Good catch, it's like a soundalike of those two songs. Pure classic, shame the album was a double disc.

    Have you guys heard of "The internet"

    Yeh they're pretty good, found them a couple of years ago because they're affiliated with Odd Future. By now they've probably put out a sizeable catalogue.

    Blast from the past: Cella Dwellas - "Land of the Lost"

    Possibly their best song... Loving the old school CGI, quite unlike other rap videos.

    Da Dirt Sauce

    Yes, you can definitely add dirt in the modern age. Several producers and full groups out there make music that sounds like it was recorded in the '70s using old gear and tuning/micing the drums in a specific way. As for beatmaking, Izotope Vinyl is the top free VST for adding grit. For some...

    Copyright bullshit

    Of course not, unless someone goes out of their way to submit a manual strike.

    Youtube Remix

    I found that even records tend to have them a bit off, it's all down to careful tweaking. Some more recent indie rap a cappellas do line up with the beats (see: almost any DJ Low Cut album).

    Fred Williams & The Jewels Band - "Tell Her"

    @macndabox The drums are a bit quiet and plain, but I like this house approach, sounds like something to calm the club down a bit after a hype track. @Matt-D Nice spin on the introduction part and the clunk sound effect is excellent, reminds me of my childhood when all the playgrounds had those...

    Youtube Remix

    Tons of a cappella tracks are a little off, even if you line them up with the instrumental sourced from the very same CD. The key is to use decimal BPMs and tweak until it's perfect. It's very easy in FL, I can do it to almost any track in 5 to 10 minutes.

    Is there an easy way to record midi into FL Studio?

    Choose an instrument, make a new pattern, open the piano roll, hit the little button for the countoff and record by toggling the record button and hitting play. Afterwards, you can quantise (start times for example) from the dropdown menu in the piano roll. Have you skipped any of these steps?

    Beat This! - December 18-19, 2019

    Congrats, this battle had quite a bit of heat. I thought @toryhooks had the best beat, it blew me away.

    Anybody have a wi-fi repeater?

    I have one branded as Netis, but most of them seem to be fairly generic aside from Dlink and TPlink. I don't know what the major brands are over in America though. Pretty sure it cost some 15 or 20 euros. As long as you don't get some bottom tier garbage, you should be fine. A quirk on mine is...

    SF2 in FL 20

    I grew up playing Unreal Tournament '99 and later played Unreal, both of which have a great soundtrack made in one of those old tracker programs. Same for the first Deus Ex game. I've wanted to get into the oldschool soundfonts for some time now, mostly for ambiental sounds. Found some good...

    Eric B & Rakim - Microphone Fiend - HD Remaster

    Now that's that I'm talking about! I always found that British remix of "Paid In Full" to be a bit corny, but this is one of my favourite Rakim songs. Just classic. Very early use of the infamous AWB Christmas sleighs.

    Big Daddy Kane: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert

    I remember when this came out, even swiped some drums from there. Great performance, wish I were there. Seems like this tiny desk thing is where older rappers past their prime go to get some much deserved shine.

    What kind of YouTube videos do you watch?

    I used to watch a lot of Rhythm Roulette for inspiration, still come back to it sometimes. Must have seen the 9th Wonder, Black Milk and Hi-Tek ones at least 20 times. Other than that, mostly just whatever gets me curious from channels like Tantacrul, Lindybeige, Technology Connections, the list...

    Eric B and Rakim - Paid In Full - HD Remaster.

    hahaha they even added closed captions for all the little moments inbetween the lyrics. However, this is not HD, they just upscaled it. I think they even used that shitty composite cable - check how bad the Arabic letters look. I doubt they'll ever do a scan of it because so much other footage...
