    white boys in the rap game

    I'm South African and apartheid only ended 11 years ago, as a result I find it hard to trust white poeple in general. As far as Rapping goes , my ancestors have been doing that for centuries, its a part of our culture. Making poems that rhyme accompanied by a beat is something that even my...

    What usually drives your reason for creating a beat?

    Yeah me to. I draw comics and paint too (wierd) anyway, I just love hip hop as a culture, I am in to Graff, B-boying, Deejaying and emceeing. It offers one so many ways to express oneself, for me making beats is just another medium I can use to express myself. And as an emcee it gives me a...

    does digging make you wanna play

    collecting all these records and listening to all this music has inspired me to start my own band. Not that I'm tired of sampling. Its just that I get so inspired sometimes.... Its like Madlibs YNQ, I just want to do something thats more ... organic. Wonder if anyone feels the same.

    Ethics

    If You want to keep it PURE and TRUE then you should be looping breaks on your turntables while some emcee says EVERYBODY IN THE HOUSE SAY YEAH.

    What sequencer have you completely mastered???

    Acid 04. Man I cant even begin to tell you guys how easy and fun it is to use this program. I tried reason and I tried FL, but in the end Acid works best for me. The guys from from the UK should get it when I say its so piss. ( I feel like I'm in an infomercial.)

    Callin' all Comic geeks!!!!

    I am an Illustrator and my may fav artists are Jamie Hewlett and Mike Mignola. They have too much style and they make it look easy. As far the comics to movie thing, If you really love comics then the movies will never match up. By the way I am currently creating a comic with a sound track...

    Being around the wrong people

    JPeg. I find that you have to keep pushing yourself. You cant afford negative thought or negative people. And I feel you on on that whole Madlib thing. Madlib is my primary inspiration, not only because of his music , but also because of his work ethic and constant expirimentation. That dude...

    Help with remixing.

    i use acid 04 too and what i have to say is, forget that Beatmapper shi*, go to your accapellas track properties , change it to a one shot. Then do it "ghetto style". Your ear is your best weapon. Oh ... it also helps if you know the acapellas' exact BPM.

    from acid to reason...?

    I use Acid and Cool edit pro. I recently obtained a copy of reason but it I dont really use it. My question is, Can one chop samples (melodies not drums) in Reason with the same ease that one can using Acid? I know poeple who use reason but all of them are "keyboard producers". They dont...

    what do you look for when sampling?

    I rarely ever find nice complete 4 bar loops, so i usually get bits and peices, or i sample a section that i can chop up.
