    Newfound respect

    Before I started producing I really hated little johns beats. Now that I am evolving as a producer I have a newfound respect for his beats. I like the simplicity of them, but at the same time what I never noticed before is how he layers his synths and places them very creativly. Little john...

    These synths are a MUST!

    If you dont have these synths from Tweakbench you really need to try them. These things are fun to fool with when your all blazed out even if you don't use them in your production. They've got carrilion, a chime vst. sick ass ambience generator, 2 NINTENDO synths that are based on the original 8...

    Reverb On Drums

    I've had a couple cats listen to my beats and tell me I should never put reverb on my drums but I tend to enjoy a little reverb. I usually apply reverb to my snare, hats, shakers, claps ect. I found that applying reverb to a kick really doesnt sound that good though. I just posted to see if...

    PCP- I thought rappers were supposed to get better in time?
