    Beat Block - Veterans Perspective ?

    i would say go for a different style of music than you already do. try some techno/dance or r&b or drum-n-bass. i also personally look for different things vocally to build around. try some poetry or some other non-hip hop vocal source to compose music around. right now i'm building beats around...

    Houston, We have a problem...IMO

    i meant argument as in a debate. nothing heated by any means. lol. my point is basically, there is so much source material to use, we could never run out.

    Dont sleep on Celtic Samples

    don't sleep on anything. you can randomly pick up any record, cd, or cassette and find something worth sampling and using.

    Houston, We have a problem...IMO

    in contrast to your argument. timbaland has made huge hits with extremely obscure samples. samples that he thought were so obscure he could get away without clearance on them. and now its bit him in the ass incidentally. the use of recognizable samples was made popular with the glory days of bad...

    Houston, We have a problem...IMO

    there is literally tons of music to sample. many of it still being made to this day. the majority of what i sample is recent music. a lot of world music, jazz and latin stuff. the only limit you have is your imagination. r&b, funk and jazz aren't the only sample sources. i think we need to shift...

    Does anybody else despise working with artists over the net?

    i think the key to what you said is whether on the net or in person, you have to be professional. i've worked for years with dudes who come to the studio unprepared and waste time and money. i'd rather you do all that on your own time rather than mine. over the net works better in some...

    Whos The Best MC in the UK???

    yeah roots manuva is dope. TY, as well as jehst. i dig task force as well. the accent just takes getting used to in my opinion. it had to happen for southern artists. everyone had to get used to the country accent. uk emcees have the same problem emcees have everywhere; a lack of identity...
