I've been listening to a lot of mid-2000s rap, particularly the mixtape stuff lately.
Coupled with @Dusty B inspiring me to tap into my Rock/Metal roots, I thought I'd give a go at trying to make one of those Grim/Dark mixtape style beats from that era where 8 rappers would jump on a track and rap seemingly forever.
Slowly getting more comfortable with Maschine Plus. Again, tried to do as much writing and arranging in standalone mode. Mostly getting my scenes together. Everything was then dumped into Logic for final arrangement and mix (I find linear arrangement much easier to flesh out ideas).
Cheers,
