    Does making beats lessen your pure enjoyment...

    There's a lot of lazy ass dj's. Push play, non-mixin motherfuckers out there. Regular clubgoers don't give a shit though as long as the new singles are poppin. People that book for these things mostly just wanna know what you intend to play. Skills don't come into the equation most of the...

    The nail in Swizz's coffin

    Damn man. While "Drop It" got worn the fuck out, that beat is one of the more creative and crazy beats to come out in awhile. Just my two cents. That shouldn't even be compared to swizz. -b blizzle

    DOOO it. It took me a minute cause of his crazy ass rhyme style (off beat), but to have Clark Kent, RZA, and Dash hear your beats is coo'. I'm finna' work on another one or two for good measure. No rules yet' besides the no samples. I hope you can submit more than one tho. no problems...

    odb remix contest

    Anybody gonna enter that dame dash contest? It seems like a good opportunity if you got some heat. Get on a b-side with a feature in scratch mag. I've got a pretty sick version that fits the vibe and attitude of the accapella, which I think is the hardest part. I'll share it after the...

    Alot of producers don't add cuts these days.

    word, my homies and i just play q & a for hours to one beat trading every 4 or 8 bars. it's fun to answer back in scratches like dialogue. it's the best practice imo. but it's like some chronic masturbation steez. yeah, man if you're fuckin' with traktor i'd definitely buy some tables...

    Alot of producers don't add cuts these days.

    i wasn't lookin' to flame you but it's dope when dudes have turntable skills. i never meant every producer needs to go buy some turns and learn how to scratch, but at the same time i'm a purist. it's almost the same as the fruity loops/hardware debate. it can go on forever and everyone has a...

    Are Your Standards Too High?

    damn, i'm always looking at cats saying they take 20 minutes to bang out a beat. i wish man. i am constantly changin it up to get the best result. like the beat isn't hard enough or good enough make people go "damn". i suffer from never bein satisfied i guess. it is a good rule to walk away...

    Alot of producers don't add cuts these days.

    I respect those cats for what they do, but not really my thing. I like to keep it a little more gangsta with my music taste. Shadow's got some programming skills fo' sho. Can't really front ya know. I just wish there were more cuts on "known" shit is what I'm trying to say. It seems like...

    Alot of producers don't add cuts these days.

    I'm always listening to people's stuff online, but never hear cuts on their beats. Anyone here scratch too? I just think it adds a dope element to tracks. Not all beats fit the vibe of having some cuts on top, but if it does it makes something so much sicker. Although Just Blaze isn't the...

    Does making beats lessen your pure enjoyment...

    Yeah, it's weird. It's not that I'm not enjoying it, but the PURE feeling I used to have when I had "production-virgin" ears is gone. I guess the point is, looking at a piece of music contextually instead of mathematically. It is cool to have the perspective of a producer though and knowing or...

    Are Your Standards Too High?

    This is my main problem. I think I've had some pretty hot shit in the past , but after a zillion listens it's like umm, -DELETE-. IMO, it only makes you better to keep it movin, so it could be a blessing not to hold on to old shit.

    Does making beats lessen your pure enjoyment...

    To me, after fucking with music for a while I find myself studying music, its structure, and every little element instead of just listening. While it is a good trait to have as someone who wants to make QUALITY music, it hinders some of the fun of listening. (not all of the time, but...
