Showcase - July 30-August 5, 2018
The sample from the Sopranos is when they're talking in a car and you can hear the traffic in he background. I wasn't sure how to transition properly without a complete drop out when the beat hit so I sampled it in as an ambient background noise. I guess it was too much haha. If you've got any...- DawnEHboy

Showcase - July 30-August 5, 2018
Let me know how I could improve this track, It's the first time I've tried to really make a beat from sampling. I've sampled before but it was mostly for EDM type tracks and mostly stuff like Rick and Morty and what not. Also I apologize if the track doesn't show up, I've never really shared my...- DawnEHboy

Showcase - July 30-August 5, 2018
My feedback might be a bit out there but you gotta have some how, right? @Matt-D Remember the Night sounds super LO-FI mixed with a bit too many effects in my opinion. It really starts to branch into some experimental while still maintaining some familiar elements of hip hop that we've come...- DawnEHboy

The most obnoxious producer (fails)
I don't have a lot of exposure to other producers since I'm still fairly new to music. But the worst thing I've seen lately is producers using nothing but CAPS LOCK and gratuitous amounts of emojis. It takes a paragraph of filtering through nonsensical bullshit just to understand what the hell...- DawnEHboy

How do I make a sample sound fluid?
What do you mean by this? How do you record it from your iPhone to your iPad? -
Went record digging at a local record shop...
That Chuck Mangione though, I wanna see that shit. You should update that screenshot of your IG though, you've got over a thousand followers now. Do you have a Youtube channel or do you just stick to IG mostly? -
Tips on Transitioning
I've had to scrap many tracks because I just couldn't achieve a smooth solid transition. Also, most of my transitions are usually a build up that leads to a moment of silence and then starts back up. I use it a lot and it just seems so cookie cutter and stale, maybe it's just the way I go about... -
Looking for some music suggestions
They're both definitely interesting and stand out in some way. Dude from Dope Dod looks like a goth Mathew Lillard though. -
Which DAW do you use?
Right now I literally just do everything in the MPC software, All the videos I watch of people using Abelton and other DAWs just makes it seem so much simpler. I have Reaper, because I wanted a cheap DAW at the time, haven't really gotten into it yet. It apparently has everything any other DAW... -
Looking for some music suggestions
I don't listen to a whole lot of hip hop. Looking for some good suggestions to get into. Old school, new stuff, some good underground stuff, any and everything you enjoy. Also super interested in some producers/artists/tracks that made you fall in love with hip hop to begin with. Most of the... -
Help Me ... I Need songs like this ...
Well the obvious would be that all of them, minus hell on earth, are in Minor key. All, except get away, are below 100 bpm. First three have soft or ethereal female vocals in the background. There's a lot of piano or softer pads in them. Not sure if that helps. That's just the from a brief... -

True story. I'll take my chances for now and stick with it. If I ever do anything besides producing I'll just have a different name.- DawnEHboy

Fantastic Youtube page for sampling (MrHITCHER65)
I spent a couple hours earlier messing with some and nothing really fleshed out yet. But out of the 70 or so I nabbed I'm sure I can find at least one that's perfect. I still remember a track by a group called Broken Fort years back. They sampled The Bee Gees - Tragedy in the beat and it was... -

I feel it is "unique" in a way. But it should also be easy to remember and to look up. And I literally spell it like "DawnEHboy" one word with the caps and all. I feel that could definitely become an issue down the line. I do appreciate any input and constructive criticism though, so thank you.- DawnEHboy

My middle name is Donavan, I go by Donny. But It's hard to Use Donny as a SN. So back in like 2008 I needed a SN for FullTilt poker and I came up with DawnEH (Because DawnE was already taken). Then after awhile I just started adding "boy" at the end because It reminded me of song Danny boy...- DawnEHboy

Fantastic Youtube page for sampling (MrHITCHER65)
I'm assume this would be the proper area for this thread and I didn't see anything else about it. https://www.youtube.com/user/MrHITCHER65/feed This person professionally isolates tracks, mostly older rock music. There are hundreds of isolations for vocals, guitar, bass, drums, brass, strings... -

How's it goin? I go by DawnEHboy. Still pretty new to producing, started about two years ago as a little side hobby to keep me busy while I was in the Army. Now I'm out and looking to make a career out of it and go to school for it, since it's free anyways. I discovered this site last...- DawnEHboy
