    take ya time

    word to classic AT aliens is a sick album thats my favourite Outkast album, but to quote Madlib "every beat cant be great" Some beats come quickly and if I see no potential in the beat it will stay as is, some stuff is supposed to be just quick and dirty other shit is more involved and builds...

    Got a new sampler the ESX1

    Its a dope machine interms sample manipulation and the overall sound but the downside is real time recordign atin truly realtime. so all notes get quantised so that means there is a danger of ending up with some stiff 9th wonder drums so i gotta be weary of that, but aint no going back now...

    the equipment the Neptunes use

    Neptunes use alot of preset sounds, they make some decent club tunes but they over-rated. still props to em for doing they own thing and getting cash & being successful.
