    How old, is too old?

    Funny thing is, I don't really know why I luv hip hop like I do. I know what I luv about it, and thats one of the things that hip hop was built on...the simple fact that you could be yourself. Hip Hop had it's trends...sweat suit with shell toe adidas, big crazy gold chains, flat tops, gold...

    J. Dilla’s Mom Gets Hundreds Of Unreleased Tapes, Artifacts, Manuscripts

    No, unfortunately not, other than the stuff he's released with Bad Boy, Big Daddy Kane, Wu Tang and so on...but he's still around so I'm sure he's got his shhh on lock. @LP* - yeah I agree...it's pretty dope to leave such big catalog behind as well. I really do hope his people cash in on...

    @djfeedme - sick flip, mostly unrecognizable, nice use of added sounds. Great work! @wizard - luv this, this is some PR shhh. Fire! @smokaz - I like this groove a lot, very nice sample play on the vocals. The added dust is a nice touch as well. Also I agree, turn that hat down just a touch...

    J. Dilla’s Mom Gets Hundreds Of Unreleased Tapes, Artifacts, Manuscripts

    Yeah, it's really good to have but I use it for reference material only. For me it's not so much having it that's all that great but dilla had some killa concepts and that's really what I find very useful to me. I don't try to rework any of his work, I take notes on things like his beat...

    I sent out a bunch of invitations to hip hop heads to join the Hip Hop Graffiti Art page. With the invitation I sent a message saying..."This is NOT for promoting your work, it's a hip hop graffiti art page only...". Needless to say....yup, you guessed it!

    Mastering Tips For Do-It-Yourselfers

    I do the same thing...brainworx recommends up to 4db of gain reduction when using their bx_XL Limiter but 3 sounds better to me in most cases. As for compressing, I luv this puppy right here...adjustable frequency/multiband compression...hit what you want to hit and leave the rest untouched...

    Mastering Tips For Do-It-Yourselfers

    Joe Gilder is a professional recording engineer and I like his philosophy a lot...it just makes sense to me... What dp said is also true, if you eq before you compress and change your eq...you've also changed how your compressor will react...BUT thats only if you don't go back and make...

    J. Dilla’s Mom Gets Hundreds Of Unreleased Tapes, Artifacts, Manuscripts

    That would be a very honorable thing to do, I'm just not into the idea of marketing someone elses stuff. I could see how that could possibly cause more problems than good. Besides, his family has the files now and they can do it right vs anyone else releasing his stuff without their blessings on it.

    Yeah, but now Reason users are calling their versions of VST's "amazing, game changing and the greatest thing ever"....hahahaha! It's only good when it applies.
