    your method/routine for producing???

    What ever I do -I always program my drums last. That way they work with the melody/sounds and not against it.

    a lesson on production deals

    Yeah, there's a lot of shadyness going on in this music thing. The bigest thing I got from that article is that you have to have people around you who know what they are doing and are doing it for and with you. In the word of Dame Dash - You don't want to sign a brick!

    The College Droput: your thoughts on Kanye's solo effort

    Personally, I have to give it up to any artist on a high profile label like the ROC who isn't scared to break the rap "formula" everybody seems to use.

    Headphones

    I'm gonna do some recording using a headphone amp (since I don't have a booth) but my headphones are horrible. Anyone have suggestions for headphones - I was thinking of getting AKG's K 240 studio headphones.

    The College Droput: your thoughts on Kanye's solo effort

    Kanye West Album Just wondering what everyone feels about the K. West album. Personally, I think its fire. His concepts, lyrics and beats are a breath of fresh air for "commercial" hip-hop.

    mpc's

    Personally, I like the hands on approach the MPC forces you to have. But mostly its a matter of preference and what you're most comfortable with.

    Recording vocals

    Does anyone have any suggestions/tips or techniques for making vocals sound more "full" or "thick"? I was thinking of adding some effects to the vocal track but wasn't sure what to add.

    The right drum sounds

    When I program drum sounds - I look for sounds that sound natural with the rest of the track. You want the drums, melody, etc. to compliment each other. The drums & other sounds tend to compete with each other when they don't match. Hope this helps.

    What about Manny Fresh?????

    Yeah Manny Fresh has made some hot beats but I won't be impressed until with his production skills until I hear him make something hot in a different style. When it comes to making beats for the Cash Money cats he does his thing I can't see him making beats for anyone else.

    the HIGHS and LOWS of producing

    I think creative highs and lows are a part of production. Remember what you did to get out of those creative lows and don't take the fact that you're at a creative high for granted.
