http://www.funender.com/music/bands/1395/music.php Listen to my good old hip hop shit! here you can listen to my hip hop stuff.. 5 beats up so far, more coming |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
One track at a time. My head explodes if I've got to listen to more than one! Mind you if they're good it ain't a problem. He he. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hahaha! ok, they are nice, so no problem.. just listen to that shit! |
||||||||

Nice. Very fresh are my initial thoughts. |

'I Wish' was nice. You've got quite a big sound. You're using a lot of 70s samples. Sounds like they come from 70s cop shows or something. |
||||||||

thanx ;) been doing this hip hop thang for a minute tho, so they should be fresh or im a SUCKER!!! Im pretty new to the electronic stuff, im better at making hip hop beats imo |

"You're using a lot of 70s samples. Sounds like they come from 70s cop shows or something" true, true, its all about being creative tho, I sample all the time but im also trying to be creative (choppin and cuttin up the samples to pieces so u cant even recognize!! ;) and adding a lot of stuff on top |

I'll check these after i download this saskrotch mix... could be a while tho, 56k and all. |

I like the samples you're using. You've got quite a big sound as a result of the samples you're using, be nice if there was some addition of some more IDM type notes to give it more of an IDM flavour aside from just repeating the same samples over and over again. And I think your tracks need more build up and breakdown. Strong samples but something else is needed in order for your tracks to reach that complete feeling. On the whole the samples that u use are strong enough to carry the listener's interest but your tracks need that extra zing I reckon. |

Remeber these are not meant to be instrumental tracks (this is not RJD2 or DJ shadow stuff). These are just hip hop intrumentals that MCs cant get if they want to drop some rhymes on them. All these tracks are made to have some rap on them, so I want them pretty minimalistic. And I really dont want that IDM flava or whatever on these tracks... |
||||||||

Well sure for that purpose I can understand. I still downloaded a couple of these tracks 'cause they're nice. Anyways Archival I've bumped my thread for my latest track if you want to check it out. I like the old 70s funk elements too as you might notice. |

Beat 777: The Snare sounds a bit too bright, other than that I can't really fault it. Comp Mix: Sounds a bit like Prefuse style stilted beats with the jumps you use. This is almost like something off the Lovage album actually... very nice. Again, I don't like the sound of the snare very much, it's just a bit too clean, bright and synthetic. I Wish: Very nice! A sort of "last night of the cruise" type old sound, wouldn't be out of place on an Avalanches release. Jewelz: The strings section sounds a bit "murky" in places. Perhaps too full a sound from lots of layering? Good track though, a sort of "Marching Band" feel to the percussion. NYC part: This time it's the "shaker" instrument (whatever it is, rainstick or rhythm egg, etc.) that sounds a bit too bright and loud in the mix! Again a nice stilted sort of beat, but one that is still easy to follow. Overall: Sorry for being overly picky with the levels/quality of snare sounds, but it's the only real "constructive criticism" I could make. Overall some good work :) |

Short Jazz track I've just finished (less of it is sample based than you'd think!) . Comments welcome. Email me and I'll sort you out with some good hip hop snare sounds :) |

You need to create a fresh thread. |

It's that good, huh? ;) |

Damn you must know it. Yes I was impressed but why so short? |
||||||||

Reason for brevity: The Sax and Rhodes both use a combination of single note and bar long samples, unfortunately, I don't have samples of many single notes, so it was limited how much I could pad it out. I didn't want it to be too repetative with the bar long samples and similarly wanted the continuity of using the samples from the same source. I didn't want to use any other instruments as I was aiming to keep it as if it was just a jazz quartet playing it. Glad you liked it though. |

Ceri u got my e-mail adress, send me some one shot snare hits!!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Has a real 70s vibe. Sounds like some of the stuff on Black Jazz Records. Remember those Soul Jazz rereleases thats what that track sounds like. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Should be with you now :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Thanx Ceri JC ;) u the man. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
very nice premier type beats, although I feel you're a tad overzealous concerning the hihats, and by emphasis buries the all-important bassdrums and snares, this considering an mc has yet to spit on those beats. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so, if I want to use one of your beats for a track, what do I have to do? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
First I got to hear your talent...then, no problem...money aint a thang hehe ;), if u got MC skills, then we can do something |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I love this shit! send it to someone big and have them do something on it! You could probably make it as a producer. I also have this friend who makes beats. check them out here: |

mad phat yo! seriously, i like these a lot. |

thanx Drunken Mastah and Epohs, I appreciate it :) yeah im going to work with a few top names from the states...at least I hope to. I already recorded with Grenadas biggest artist Faboulus and swedish Daddy Boastin (the swedsish heads knows who he is). I know Cappadonna from Wu Tang a little so im hoping to get him on a beat plus ShabazzThe Disciple (at least I got Cappas cell phone number so we will se how that works..) peace |
||||||||
|

|
|
well man...the problem is definatly that most rappers i know (i'm not mc'ing meself) are danish, but I have been talking about some english lyrics with some of them. can you email me, and we'll talk more. Top beats on the wishlist are definatly "I wish" and "Comp mix"... let's hook up |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
shit, man! tell me when something you've produced is published. also: commend cappadonna and the rest of the wu with their work. It's all fucking great! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Got two more beats up... the hip hop instrumentals "Como" and "Luck Me". |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Como is nice, very clean and "up" sounding. Sort of Tony Costa style production, with a positive, mediterranean feel. The little snare drum rolls work really well too. Me Luck has a nice bounce to the rhythm. I'd consider losing that low brass (sax?) it sounds a bit too much like a comedy sad "wa-wa-wahhhhh" and doesn't fit with the feel of the rest of the track. I like the flanged synth at 0.44, it has a nice 80s feel to it. Almost as if it could be on a Miami Vice soundtrack. Overall, two more quality tracks :) |
||||||||
|

Everybody complains about that sax sound :( , yes it sounds cheesy but thats the way I like it sometimes ;) the only one who like that sax sound is my sister, but I think about getting rid of it, to many peeps hate that part ("What the fuck! take away that silly shiT!"). thanx for you comments Ceri! and thanks for the snares |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Como sounds like it would fit Busta Rhymes! Me Luck was good, but I agree about the sax (it sounds like a low-pitched mute trumpet to me, actually...). what do you use when making beats? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
shit MAN, you have a good beats! very good very very good.. compliments |
