    Beat This! Competition - August 9-10, 2023

    Id like a Veyron, but here I am with a Ford Focus. Sometimes you just have to make do with what you have, I try to get involved in as many sampleflips as I can because I love the challenge of having to come up with something from something Id probably never have chosen as a sample had I been...

    Hey wuzup guyz, girlz

    We have a non hip hop showcase for non hip hop beats, and its very new so your timing isnt bad on that front. What other genres do you make? How long have you been making music? What are the influences that made you decide to try making music yourself? And welcome to ill.

    Mini controller

    As soon as Im back to work and have some money Im getting an Alesis VI61. I love the weighted keys and the pads feel really nice, it makes my M-Audio Oxygen61 seem very cheap. For somebody of your calibre, unless portability is a necessity Id go for at least 49 keys.

    Fuck AI

    I program all my beats, programming drums is one the most enjoyable parts of music production for me, Im not about to outsource it to AI. Wait, hang on, let me get this. This isnt about drum beats, its about finding beats. Why would a producer need to find beats? Deez excluded.

    How often do you make beats and how long does it take you?

    Yeah man, I will recommend that too, 2 octaves just doesnt cut it IMO if you want to just have a little jam and practice your playing. I have a 61 key controller and I think 61 keys while not full size has 5 octaves to play with without having to use some octave shift to be able to move up and...

    How often do you make beats and how long does it take you?

    It really depends on the day, one day I will spend 15 hours straight on one track, or I could knock something together that comes together really quickly and its done quickly, then I can go weeks and just cant get anything to work. It comes with being creative I suppose, you just need to be in...

    What Do You Want From Me - Instrumental w/hook

    I compiled a list of basic steps with guide videos I found on youtube to help get the concepts and techniques across. Its not a simple process, but its not overly complicated either. just takes a bit of experience, knowing what to cut and when to cut it, and tuning your ears to hear things like...

    Propaganda With Rap

    I think some vocal doubles will help the vocal pop, to accentuate certain words and phrases in a musical way, especially the hook. Is this you rapping? Its like the vocal energy really picked up a level at around 2:10, it would be good to hear that level of emotion throughout the track. Im just...

    Reference tracks

    Personally I've never used reference tracks, although I should. Would make mixes more consistent when you have a target to aim for. I think your best quality references will come as wav file rips straight from a CD or as a HQ digital wav available online. I think FLAC would be a great digital...

    Beat This! Competition - July 26-27, 2023

    @Iron Keys all that Im trying to say is I think you are pigeonholing yourself and limiting your opportunities. You have good composition and arrangement skills and there is money to be made in sync licensing, you make a very specific subset of hip hop/funk and its just an opinion but I think...

    Beat This! Competition - July 26-27, 2023

    I agree with @Armani here, often times someone complains, then we get into a lets change things AGAIN situation. Participation is falling over time, as a result the battle results will be a bit more open as there are fewer votes to spread across the contestants. Its just a matter of numbers, and...

    I was thinking of doing something similar, but its hard enough getting people to subscribe for free lol.

    Beat This! Competition - July 26-27, 2023

    at the end of the day yes it needs to be fun, but that soon goes out of the window when you make music a business and you start working for others, it becomes less fun at that point. It really depends on what somebody wants for their music. If they are happy with it just as a hobby then yeah...

    id rather save another 150 and spend that on actual monitors. Headphones dont give a true stereo representation as you cannot hear in the left whats coming out the right and vice versa. Id have a pair of DT 770's, 880's or 990's just for a/b'ing a mix in headphones to see how it translates.
