I taught him how to dj when he was 11, and naturally he moved from djing to producing, from MPC to FL Studio.

he's a sample based hip-hop producer, and his favorite artists currently are ronaldo domino and lamont dozier, both of whom he discovered through soulseek or torrents, and I don't think either had anything in print when he got into them

We have insane music conversation about every genre from brazilan psych to funk to jazz...and I don't think he has EVER made a beat using wax.

I'm just saying man, just cuz people are doing something differently than you did, doesn't mean they are doing it wrong.
