Production Stop Following and Start Leading: Let's Take Hip Hop Back
Or it's because old rappers aren't marketable to a young adult audience (the bulk of rap listeners) and can't adapt to the rapidly changing mainstream of rap or implement good social media promotion. Their fans often say that their best music was made a decade ago or even earlier, which can...- Drago Zetić

I don't know which program you work in, but you should check the levels, both on the master mixer channel and your drum track. Anything above the loudest possible signal (0 dB) is consider clipping, which distorts the audio. Provided that your drum files don't sound distorted by themselves, you...- Drago Zetić

@Joe Some more distorted drums on "Boston MC". The breaks are really good, but I'm not sure whether you made them sound distorted on purpose. The instrument choice is alright too, but overall the beat is too loud. @Edgar That's some good chopping right there. The tinny snare didn't bother me...- Drago Zetić

@Joe "Rhythmatic Attraction" has the kick and snare that really destroy it. At 1:35, the distortion becomes even more apparent, it's just unacceptable. "Adventurous Encounters" has nice drums, but a similar distortion problem happens with the first beat of every bar. I like this one more, the...- Drago Zetić

@Joe For the first one, I'm not sure where you got the vocals and rich instrumentation from. It could be a sample. The part starting from around 0:45 is the high point of this beat for me. The drums are interesting, unexpectedly "dirty" for this type of song. The second one ("Lesson In Moralz")...- Drago Zetić

@cto The composition on this one is simple, even somewhat familiar sounding (some local radio stations I sometimes end up listening often play similar music), but the production values are high. Sounds fit for a singer. The variety of instruments is what makes it really stand out in my opinion.- Drago Zetić

R.I.P. Prodigy of Mobb Deep
R.I.P. Respect to Prodigy for (co-)writing the best of "The Infamous" and "Hell On Earth". His lyrical prowess might have dropped during the turn of the millennium, but he could still spit gems here and there. The death gives some of his lines like "P-Dub shines regardless, remorseless: {I}...- Drago Zetić

@DamskiDam The bass in "Thorns" was supposed to be some kind of sub bass, but I messed up and left in a half-assed bassline. It's even worse when the strings kick in because I haven't high-passed them (all my fault for not checking the beat enough and being excited for the battle it was meant...- Drago Zetić

Here's that beat I couldn't export until now: I'll also let you hear an extended version of my first battle beat because I posted it too late the first time:- Drago Zetić

FL Studio 12 Exporting Almost Empty Tracks
@Fade You can close this thread now, I've found a solution. In the master channel, I put Edison and let it record the whole track. I then exported the .wav file from that plugin onto my hard drive and it works now.- Drago Zetić

Sounds like you need to learn proper forum etiquette. Let me repeat: when you're typing text into the box below the most recent post, make sure you've written everything you've thought of as the response. Then you hit "post reply" and wait for a reply. Do not reply to yourself/post multiple...- Drago Zetić

@Lance rr poplar You're spamming it up again, Lance - please control your post output by typing it all out in one sitting and hitting "Reply to thread" only when you're done for real. Anyway, an MPC-style drum pad would be nice, but I'm not interested in limiting myself to a full-blown MPC...- Drago Zetić

@Lance rr poplar I smell a no true Scotsman argument here... Listen, the computer doesn't do anything in regards of composition and arrangement. It's just a tool to get the ideas out faster. What is an MPC if not a small, basic and stripped down computer made specifically for music arrangement...- Drago Zetić

@Lance rr poplar First off, I am not really experienced (out of all the ideas I recorded, only 7 beats got made out of them). I've collected a bunch of drum loops, but I don't use them. Instead, I try to find isolated drum hits in music I listen to. Then I chop and save them to a folder with...- Drago Zetić

Once again, don't flood the thread like that. You can do that in the shoutbox. Back to your question: I don't. Instead, I use a piano-style keyboard and Fruity Loops. By the way, such matters would be more relevant in a private message than a specialised thread like this.- Drago Zetić
