    Digging The Greats

    I was never a big fan of MF Doom but I always liked the beats and how he would take parts of a sample you wouldn't expect. Somehow he made it work. But I always remembered him as Zev Love X and KMD. That Peachfuzz track lol.

    Who the fuck is Dusty B?

    Nice intro! I remember ACID lol. It's crazy how some of that software back then was so good for what it did, like Cool Edit Pro, Recycle, etc.

    RZA's SP1200 sells for $70K!

    LOL. I don't know who bought it but to me the thing is worthless. If it was in working condition that's one thing, but this is stupid.

    RZA's SP1200 sells for $70K!

    I just found out that a few months ago the RZA put his SP1200 up for auction: Obviously it looks like shit because of the infamous flood he had in his basement in the 90's. I get the history part of it, but $70K is a ton.

    Barbara Jean English - "You're Gonna Need Somebody to Love You"

    I like the beginning with just the sample, like it's building up to something. The original sample has a nice low end. I was really hoping some drums would drop in on this, that would be sick. But yeah the chops are a bit too choppy I guess. It's a tough sample to grab with the vocal parts. I...

    Barbara Jean English - "You're Gonna Need Somebody to Love You"

    Yeah it's a really good track. I think I flipped it a few years ago, I have to check.

    Beat This! Competition - October 4-5, 2023

    The first year I think it was, we were using realplayer files for Beat This. Years later I converted them to mp3. It was a good format at the time but compared to today just awful audio quality.

    Beat This! Competition - October 4-5, 2023

    MP3 is much more common and reliable within the browser, plus the HTML player doesn't support FLAC. Hey at least it's not Real Player files (.rm remember those?!?) from 20 years ago!

    Too big. Server space. FLAC can be up to six time larger. But even then, it's still going to be converted to MP3 for the battles.
