    College...

    Hello, please take some basic reading comprehension classes. I can see that public education is failing in this country. I never said producers come out of music school, I'm saying good musicians do because someone before said that "cats" come out of there doing it like their teachers told...

    College...

    These posts are typical of people who have never been to a music school. No teacher that is good tells how you to play something, they help you develop your own technique and thereby your own voice. If you don't have the mechanics, no one will give a shit about how "musical" you are.

    College...

    Well class, my talent allows me the luxury of talking like this. I'm only here for fun, hip hop production will definately be for enjoyment... Again, I never said I'd get a hip hop production degree... the whole idea behind it is people already good at producing going to Berklee to get exposed...

    New beat making videos

    what a wigger... As a white person, hearing a kid like that speak in such a way is embarrasing... I wish people wouldn't force the way they talk. I think it's cool and even melodious how some black people talk and I like to hear it, but it's just lame when some white dude does it. The...

    College...

    Class, they'd probably be a lot better than you. Berklee is the best music school in the world that doesn't deal with classical or orchestral instruments. Be assured that the people they are picking would probably know their stuff. Granted, I personally think that going to school for an artform...

    Berklee just started a hip hop production program... they let in like 7 people and obviously you're paying about 40gs a year, plus you gotta live in Boston.

    Some guy offered me $200 to make a Reggateton beat but....

    OK to be honest I don't even know what reggaeton is. All I know is that I hate most of thta stuff. I would only turn it down because I wouldn't even know how to do it.

    I have no problem with the viewpoint that you just expressed, you explain yourself well. However, don't call me a newbie. I've been in the music business longer than you have, and I'm at least as good if not better at it than you are. Artistic integrity is intensely important to me, but I am...

    Stress, in a version English that would put a lobotomy patient in the same category as Hemingway in comparison to the atrocity above, you have distinguished yourself as just another pseudo-art zealot who doesn't know what he's talking about. Do you know how many fantastic, very important...

    new carlitos way movie

    Honestly I don't want to sound superior but I really think a lot of people miss the entire idea behind those movies. Don't people realize that Al Pacino is probably the epitome of the tragic hero? I think most "hustlas" and "gangstas" and the 5 million wiggers who go along with them just see the...

    Aspiring beat maker

    Hi I'm new. I'm going to start learning about making beats. The first beat that caught my ear is kinda corny but I think it's classic, and that would be Gangsta's Paradise. That was a long time ago and I thought that beat on it's own was very powerful. Then fast forward to about year ago when...

    new carlitos way movie

    I'll take back what I said it being played out. I just think this part of a larger problem. In rap/hip hop it's cool to be a criminal, be uneducated, immoral and whatever. I'm not saying let's all go to bible camp, I'm not saying it's not ok to indulge and get fucked up... but in no other...

    new carlitos way movie

    I found the first one boring. Al Pacino is an amazing actor, but I don't know why he took such shitty roles like the one in Scarface and Carlito's way. It's the same shit... some tired gangster thinks he's the shit and gets blown away in the end. You'd think that wannabes and wankstas would be...

    Manual Tuning!?!?!?

    Can you correct it by speeding up the sample? Otherwise, just shift the pitch of the synth. I think most synths will come in at A=440...

    Some of the greatest stuff ever came from a musical genius getting into a different art form, often times ones that weren't considered the greatest... why not use it as an opportunity to improve on the art form?

    Turn people down when you are somebody. A nobody turning people down is a big joke... Jimmy Page used to do studio work in order to eat until he founded Led Zepplin... I think "artist integrity" is a line used far too often. if you're the shit, I can understand, but some bum ass dude...

    Sooo What are Your Current Projects????

    I'm working on just learning the craft... My goal is to give a track to a local artist by New Years.

    Theory of Music 101

    Well the essence of hip hop is simplicity... the idea that any dude can do it from the basement or on a street corner. That is why a lot of the best, most classic beats are simple. I know that the top commercial producers don't consider any real music theory in their beats, and that's fine. The...
