    What's going on with the beat process in these videos?

    I've not watched yet, but sounds like people who have got their preset packs and type beat process already ready to grab and drop. I could speed make a beat in Studio One real quick. If I continued making custom kits where all things fit together, could breeze through it. I'm assuming a lot of...

    My Jamuary Attempt: What I Learned Making Beat Videos

    Jus to share back ... I'm having a struggle blip in my production 'journey' (if you can even still call it that), I've been focussing a lot more heavily on mixing. Really enjoying it. Making some significant improvements, and see more ahead of me to gain in experience with it too. And my mixes...

    One add to a few of you --- Distort your bass!!! There's a few people whose records sounded without bass until I listened back on something with low lows - at which point there was a lottt of sub, but inaudible on a lot of playback systems. Really gorgeous bass, don't let it go missing!

    Fascinating --- the beat I sonically liked most you thought was mine, and you know/like my sonic signature. I also often a fan of Bandia's stuff. You / Arvin / Bandia all commonly styles I dig.

    Congrats Ears, my g! @Earsblower Liked the ninja vibes my top two were @Bandia Gotach and @Armani - Bandia had the production 'sound' and feel I liked, but Arvin had that well composed Storchy shi. Voted for Arvin, but could have gone either way. Think I had brother Earsblower as my third...

    it's between two or three beats for me. Having a difficult time between two of them, have placed my vote. If one had the same production value as the other, it'd win pretty easy. But the other. I dunno. Think i'll stick. The production is good 'enough', just less to my taste. But I fuck with it

    What the hell is this garbage?

    MAKE IT MAKE SENSE. My only thought at that point is it possibly could be down to the composition and arrangement itself - obviously our comps and arrange would have improved with experience too, and people often overlook how the arrangement impacts the final sound. I'm tempted to re-try and...

    What the hell is this garbage?

    I tried that once... I remade an old banger with new better sounds, better mix plugins, better experience and skills. It sounded near enough identical. The anticlimax was immense.

    What the hell is this garbage?

    I thought they all sounded good... I'm listening out of phone speakers but still, sounded like they had something. (I also was only just skipping in to get a quick quick glimpse of process and the beat itself) The thing I was least a fan of was Timb saying type beats are the future and wanting...

    I think I either voted for @Delta Skeltah or @DJ Excellence -- both similar vibe I can remember both beats but can't remember which I chose. Winning beat was one of the ones I quickly skipped past as wasn't Jazzy enough for me As always if anyone wants any individual feedback @ me A lot of...

    Not checked who's who yet, but wanted to do something different and give a kind of 'review' of the entries as a whole. To try avoid calling out any individuals or whatnot. When it comes to 'other music' themes, there seems to be 2 common mistakes, or difficulties that present: I'll use in...

    Here's a life tip

    Glad to see you're finally able to take a stand against Arvin's sexual advances..

    I use Studio One 6, too. I'd be chopping shit up in Impact and the arrange window tho I should probably try using mpc beats or one of NI's things

    It's so great that anyone can make music But It's so bad that anyone can make music.

    Fat Joe on today's hip-hop

    It's because people don't understand music. Any kid can ask mom for a 100$ mic and interface bundle and stuff their presets in their cracked fruity loops copying some YouTube vid. Then just say random words. Then other kids listen and do the same. There weird hepatitis fortnite 'rappers'

    Yeah today it's literally random kids muttering phrases off time off pitch in autotune on the same beat

    Fat Joe on today's hip-hop

    Best line is that, if you open old hip hop it's gonna be something different... (I.e LL, vs Luda, Vs Nas, vs Fab) but today everything is the same beat... People making love song on the same trap beat and same kill ya mom trap beat. Great point...
