What's good
What's good people? I figured I'd re-introduce myself. I haven't been up here in a minute. Surprised I remembered my password. Anyway, been producing for quite a while now. Been working on a few personal projects. I'm here to basically give and seek advice. My journey has been long and I've...- robb_lowe

2500 Accessories
Don't feel bad my dude. It's like everyone forgot that the MPC 4000 exists. No skins, no shirts, nothing dealing with the 4k. I'm looking into making my own custom skins. I'm quite sure it's somewhat easy, just time consuming... -
Where's your head at?
I don't believe in putting that kind of pressure on myself because I won't have fun making tracks and my music will sound forced. I still live my everyday life dude. My life is too good man. Making beats to me is equilvalent to "taking a big deuce" (a dump), it's based off a feeling I have in my...- robb_lowe

Where's your head at?
Man, everything you said is almost exactly how things went down with me man. Now, I'm pretty much the last man standing. Me and my younger brother has the "production team" going, but at the same time, I'm not going to put all my "eggs in one basket". I've made that mistake too many times. I...- robb_lowe

Also, you got to surround yourself with winners. People with common goals. If you surround yourself with nonbelievers, you become one yourself. You got to know when to cut off ties with people when their work ethic hits an all time low. I can't lie, sometimes I just don't feel like turning on...- robb_lowe

Where's your head at?
Oh, I'm not above having doubts. I have my occasional "self pity" sessions every once in a while. But that's just negative spirits man. That's some unknown force knowing that I'm nice at what I do and trying to bring me down. (Some of us know what that force is, but I don't want to bring...- robb_lowe

Where's your head at?
I feel you. If you don't believe in yourself, nobody else will. You have to know that your tracks are hot. But at the same time, you have to know when they're not. Not every thing you lay down is going to be fire. You got to know where your heat is at. Also, you're right about the internet...- robb_lowe

Where's your head at?
I ask myself this on weekly basis. Where do I want to take my music? Are my goals realistic? Am I doing enough to get to where I want to be? Am I willing to sacrifice time and money to get there? Are my tracks "shop worthy"? Am I ready for the competition that's out there? Am I willing to play...- robb_lowe

method of production
If you got it, you got it. If you don't, you don't. It's not easy, so you have to put your all into it. There's no correct method for production. It falls on you and what sound you're trying to accomplish. Me, I taught myself. No mentor, nothing of the sort. Which is why I tend to be "stingy"... -

MPC 4000plus or MV-8800 ?
Oh, tell me about it and if you haven't noticed, the time left on items isn't accurate at all. I fixed that problem though. Download "Adobe Air" and you'll be able to use "Ebay" in realtime. It's so much more convenient, trust me... -
MPC 4000plus or MV-8800 ?
I'm biased man, I'd have to say the 4K all day. I have one, never had a problem with it. It's pretty much straight forward. I mean, it's all on what you're going to be comfortable with. I've heard some good things about the 88, I've heard some bad things about the 88. Just like before I... -

Vain makin a beat on a motif
Oh my goodness, I'm not one to diss anyone's tracks, but did you see my man's face when those weak drums kicked in? I couldn't hold my composure. That was straight comedy. All those keyboards and absolutely positively no talent. Reminds me of those fake "Neptune/Lil John" cats that sit in... -

Gearwire garbage talk: MPC500
I didn't really see anything wrong with what dude was saying. He was speaking his opinion. I mean anyone who knows anything about production shouldn't get mad at what he was saying. He's probably a mpc user and is standing by his gear 100%. I've learned to be unbiased towards equipment, no... -
wow... a Hip Hop RS vid, and it aint mine.
Yo, i'm tellin' you, people slept on that "RS". (Even me) My man "G.O.V." uses one. He's on my "Myspace" page. He's dope with it. You can pretty much do everything the "MP" does. I think the effects are better than my "4000". I still love my "MP" though. Dope video, straight gutta hip hop ish...
