Official Kanye West thread
Yeah its fake. That's shit is just Kanye's shtick. Wu was on the shaolin, 50 is on the pimp, and Kanye is now about the cocky self promotion. Kanye's College dropout ist tight especially considering its mainstream acceptance. I mean 99 percent of mainstrem hip hop sucks balls. Anyway, he...- FTdub

Loosing a beat...
I use to keep a dictaphone in my car so if I had a rhyme, beat, or beatjuggle idea i could remember it better. The problem for me was to actually create this abstract beat idea using equipment. Now I mostly only record freestyle rhymes and beat juggles into the dictaphone. One time in the...- FTdub

am i the only muffucca that likes kanye
K west is not the greatest producer or emcee currently, but perhaps the best combo of the two. He would have less haters if the media was not so Kanye saturated right now.- FTdub

pet peeve
It's amazing how oblivious people are. They think that new music only comes out in cd's. But they also only listen to kenny g or hall & oates. BUt I love it though because those same people will give away 45's and lp's for nothing because they have no use for it, and then record mongers as...- FTdub

The Roots Tipping Point is BANNANAS!!!!!!!!!! you MUST cop this album.
I disagree to the fullest extent. Phrenology is tight. I wouldn't call it more commercial, rather progressing the sound a la check your head for the bboys. Organix is awesome by the way. Unless you knew it came before the others you wouldn't know how old it is. They all are thats why they...- FTdub

The Roots Tipping Point is BANNANAS!!!!!!!!!! you MUST cop this album.
The roots are insanely dope, and even better live. I read the review on cdnow for tipping point and Oliver Wang from URB magazine didn't really endorse the release. It matters not to me I support the 5th dynasty always. BY the way Phrenology was tight and I progressive at the same time. All...- FTdub

ooo dam this is funny
Chingo bling is huge in Fort Worth. 14-20 year old spanish speakers are goin ape over him. He co-ops beats from well known hip hop songs and write new comical spanglish rhymes to them. I am personally not a fan but I have many students that love him in both real speed and screwed versions...- FTdub

Beastie Boys - 2 The 5 Boroughs
It is good in light of current hip hop releases but its miles behind their classics. It is better than average, but not as good as hello nasty, largely because MMM didn't get as much freedom.- FTdub

Sticky Show Your Setup!
FTdub's lab This is my lo-fi lab. I do all of my preproduction in here. Not seen is my Fender P-bass. I record lo-fi in here to mini disk, some times straight, sometimes through the Studer ReVox Reel. I do tape loops or just mess with the speed of the recordings. I now have a tascam analog... -
Electrix warp factory
Does anyone here have an electrix warp factory. It is supposed to be a sick vocoder. Maybe you have just used one before. I really want one. Im not looking to buy from any of you, I just want to live vicariously through you until i get one. -
What instrument do you play best?
Word, my brother is a jazz guitarist, and he constantly mocks me for feeling that turntables have become instruments. I can play him my sets and cuts, and he is still so elitist that he denies legitimacy. -
What instrument do you play best?
We are all producers, but some of us are former or current drummers, some play bass, some guitar, keys, xylophone, and so on. What kind of musicians do we have out here. I would call myself a turntablist and producer. I play bass when necessary as well. I am all self taught, and everyday I... -
A question for all the producers...
I learned to spin from detroit techno dj's they taught me the ins and outs of mixing. You may not like the music, but those cats can blend ill. They have like 50 eq knobs on their mixers and they use them all. I got started spinning by playing records in the relaxation tent, a hip hop oasis...- FTdub
