    Darko Domijan - "Vrtovi Sna"

    Nice man, feels like a "modern old school" west coast beat. Vocals came in really clean at the end. Great beat.

    MPC Boom Bap Beat

    Cool beat, can sense some of the dance influence too. I can picture pop/hip-hop type artists over this.

    "Ramparts" | Alternative Hip-Hop Beat (Travis Barker Drum Solo Sample)

    Hi All, been enjoying making this style. Someone had mentioned that a prior alternative/rock/rap beat I posted reminded them of RTJ. I'm not really sure what to call it, you tell me! :) Been listening to Just Blaze a lot recently, this one has some of that influence (show me what you got style...

    Ms. French (Alternative/Hip-Hop Type Beat)

    Drum sample is a classic one: that I tried giving a unique twist to. Thanks for listening, appreciate it!

    FL Studio: Any way to edit channels in bulk (Cut / Cut By)?

    What's up, folks. Anyone know if there's a way to edit the Cut/Cut By settings in bulk? What I typically do is chop up my sample and then try to mess around with my controller to put together a melody, but it throws a wrench in my workflow whenever I need to stop and go into each channel...

    Darko Domijan - "Vrtovi Sna"

    Yep. Even in my real job, I think it's best to get feedback from folks who are not directly connected or have limited exposure/experience. Breaks the tunnel vision. And let's face it, when it comes to music, very few care about the technicals. If they like it they listen, if not... they click next!

    Darko Domijan - "Vrtovi Sna"

    My wife never heard any of my stuff before because I used to make beats before I met her (and that PC is long gone). She listened to some of my new beats and she told me that "they need to be more dynamic, with more frequencies, and more tempo, like Tiesto, or how Timbaland uses those "weep...

    Darko Domijan - "Vrtovi Sna"

    If I ever make it big time, I'll pay homage to this album cover. Not even sheepskin... full on sheep jacket and handle bar mustache. Not sure if there's anything else that screams "I do what the fuck I want" more than that.

    Sampling is fucking hard

    & oh also to identify the key of a sample... if using FL Studio, right click on the audio file >> edit in pitch corrector -- it does a decent job at aligning to the piano roll, you can also export the midi, but of course takes some tinkering.

    Sampling is fucking hard

    If you're using FL Studio, Wave Candy can do a pretty good job at detecting the key. I made a preset: 1) Add Wave Candy to the Master 2) Load the Key Finder preset 3) Mute all tracks except the sample 4) Play 5) Click the snowflake icon to freeze... 6) Tinker with whatever you're trying to...

    Dang, you're probably right ha.

    Harry Potter & The ILL Beat-stealing risk

    The way I look at it... it is what it is. That's why relationships are important. It's going to happen. Even if not directly, because what's that famous quote... "creativity is hiding your sources." Remember: supposedly Spielberg stole ET. Plus, we're probably sampling shit, right? I think...

    Poverty Driven (Rap Beat)

    I could see the percs and higher frequencies toned down a bit to bring more focus on the melody, and having a singer/rapper combo on this. Solid beat, good work.

    Poverty Driven (Rap Beat)

    Do you have any recommended videos or articles on this? Is it like using a bus channel for reverb/delay but instead a low pass or EQ bus?
