2767235, clean interlude sounding joint
Posted by liveguy, Fri Jan-04-13 06:20 PM
I really dig once the drum loops came in to add body to the drums.

Nice joint, man.
2767387, RE: clean interlude sounding joint
Posted by venom36200, Sat Jan-05-13 11:27 AM
yeah, sometimes i can't get my drum patterns to sound right on their own. when that happens i add a breakbeat to the beat.
2767252, Dope lil piano flip man!!!
Posted by _Torchbaras, Fri Jan-04-13 06:52 PM
as liveguy stated above, that extra drum layer really gave it somethin!!!

Can barely hear the kick tho, but the snare has a dope smack to it!
2767447, it was hard to see u posted a beat
Posted by judono, Sat Jan-05-13 04:56 PM
this was a hard sample to freak. in my opinion your beat was just a little practice run. nothing too serious. but i like the "dirtysouth2" beat at your soundcloud page. that one was jamming.
2767505, I like how you added the cymbal and the snare later in the beat.
Posted by Agency, Sat Jan-05-13 08:26 PM
It changed up the atmosphere of the beat for the better. Those little touches really make a difference.

Posted by Dj Joey Joe, Fri Jan-04-13 01:52 PM
You might have tried but to me you did it, this is the kind of beat I can see a rapper spitting some hardbody shit over.

2767257, Fox YEAH -

Breakish drums always hits home - good shhh.... lots of lo end between the sample and those too. Nyce!

Super Mario Bros fx had me reminiscin like a mofo in here hahahahha - MAJOR props on that!!!
2767292, thanks, man...
Posted by liveguy, Fri Jan-04-13 08:18 PM
I just threw that joint together and used my new toy the duet 2 to load up track by track via usb uno midi cable into logic.

Lil waves joints here and there to give it some thump. lol

I LOVE this duet son!!!! ARGHHHH!

Greatest shit ever created.

Makes my Life a lot easier and now I get to REALLY practice on mixing.

Most of my heavy hitter stuff is back in my hometown, so my lil set up here is doing me good now that I have something to help the process along.

New year....new beats!
2767435, This joint is hittin'....
Posted by The Wordsmith, Sat Jan-05-13 04:12 PM
...I'm most def' feelin' this. I agree with Joey Joe, joint sounds like something a cat could spit something crazy over.





Since 1976
2767450, thanks for peepin' homie.
Posted by liveguy, Sat Jan-05-13 05:02 PM
2767449, i like how u got that bassline bouncing around
Posted by judono, Sat Jan-05-13 05:02 PM
and the eq'ing on this is dope too. and i like the little 8bit video game sounding accents in there. there might be one too many elements layered in that is making this a little too 'busy' , but fuckit.

that sudan life beat at your page was kind of raw on the low too..
2767452, thanks for the feedback
Posted by liveguy, Sat Jan-05-13 05:07 PM
just practice for me, kid.

added lil elements due to lack of emcee.

Maybe one day i'll get somebody to rap on that joint.

Sudan is my dude.

Son got beats for days....peep his soundcloud
2767506, Dat ish fresh.

The intro was nice and i like the drums sounds themselves.

Keep it up!

Posted by judono, Sat Jan-05-13 05:07 PM
would be straight on the interlude with somebody talking over it. got a little raw and is quirky enough. i like that 'sit back' track on ur soundcloud page. that was a cool little joint w/ the 'face sample in there

Didnt stray too far from the originoo sound - thats dope - has that classic vibe!

Reminds me of somethin my bro played me the other night -

Some producer that mainly uses shhh from round the same time this is from -

Had a Blu feature!???

Anyways, this reminded me of that, and thats a nod!

Good one.

2767159, feelin the drums...
Posted by liveguy, Fri Jan-04-13 02:52 PM
The pattern is old school, which I like.

The sample placement is cool, but gets repetitive in spots....

I dig the overall vibe, tho....

Not mad at the beat at all, kid.

Keep it up.
2767170, Yeah I've probably said it here before, 80's drums are my favorite
Posted by -DJ R-Tistic-, Fri Jan-04-13 03:25 PM
I don't think I realized it til listening to the other beats here, but mine does sound way more 90's with the chops and how it's ONLY samples used, no instruments. It took me a while to find drums that matched it...I had looped a diff part of the beat the first time, but couldn't make it work for shit.

Good lookin on that!
2767268, Yessir!!!
Posted by _Torchbaras, Fri Jan-04-13 07:08 PM
Dope one considering you havent really been doin beats on the reg, man!!!

And you use Goldwave? - havent messed with that for yrs. and yrs. - I remember it bein crazy dope far as temposhiftin realtime!

Def. has the mos oldschool feelin Ive heard for a while around here - you should def. keep participatin - spice these up with that throwback flavor!!!

Good shhh.

Posted by judono, Sat Jan-05-13 05:19 PM
the drum sounds you chopped up are legit. i like the kick and the snare. and so.. it is your first joint in a minute--- and your warming up. . it's 2013... and we are now in the future. the future has arrived. it's here (hear). keep shaking that rust off and keep the joints coming. come with future sounds. the beat u dropped was some regs... looking forward to your next one.
2767513, Some very progressive ish right here.

Your beats always have a nice shimmer to them.

Bass is thick and flows well with the beat.

Snares snaps like crazy and the kick is lovely.

The flip is on point too!

Then, two random pieces of vox for spice, lil drums and bass. It works.

yall hear that snare smack? lol

torch, you came thru with another gem. i laughed at the part at 1:17 when the beat dropped and the sleigh bells.. i dont know why. i was like 'torch done did it again!' haha. i like how u did something a little quirky &interesting at the beginning/intro , and end/outro of your track this time. added a little spice to it. the eq/mix always exactly what its supposed to sound like.

dope ass beat. from a very difficult original song to mess with this time.
2767557, Did what it should if it...

Posted by HIM, Wed Jan-09-13 12:18 PM
good lookin.
I have to say though that props goes to Dinah and her crew because that little piece hums nicely by itself.
I think thats part of what lured me in to using that piece once I chopped up all the pieces.

I've still yet to listen to the beat outside of head phones. I was hoping it hummed like it did in my headphones.

Thanks for checkin
2767326, Thats that CREEP!!!

Posted by Dj Joey Joe, Sat Jan-05-13 03:55 AM
It's a cool chop & loop, wish it had more going on in the track but like I said I can see a Queens/Queensbridge rapper spitting some thug shit over this beat.

2767469, dj joey joe & me feel the same way about this
Posted by judono, Sat Jan-05-13 05:32 PM
first, the original song was hard to freak and make it sound new & fresh and not like some basic ass shit. point blank. so you freaked it just right, and established a grimey little sound with your track. this beat would sound dope with one of the late 90's 'dunn' rappers from queens rhyming on it. good beat .
2768443, RE: dj joey joe & me feel the same way about this
Posted by HIM, Wed Jan-09-13 12:26 PM

I liked how you decided to go the dance route with it, love all the percussion in this track too, props as usual Vahe.


2767909, Maaad diff. in a good way...
Posted by _Torchbaras, Mon Jan-07-13 04:16 PM
Always nice to hear someone switch it all the way up man...

As always, grooves and perc are nice, snare has smack!

Cant quite describe it, but I picture this smoky (wonder why) jazzclub setting, urrbody dressed up and on the floor...

Interestin stuff indeed.

And thank you.
2767980, dope ass groove. good vibe shit.
Posted by judono, Mon Jan-07-13 09:08 PM
i'm feeling this. i'm seeing myself in the lounge area with a crown&coke in the left hand hand, button up shirt untucked with the top2buttons un buttoned, with my good shoes on, dancing with a pretty something to this one. lol

your PUTS remix was nice and chill too btw
2767994, That shit came in soundin just like some Prince type shit, woooow
Posted by -DJ R-Tistic-, Mon Jan-07-13 10:04 PM
That drum pattern is doooope. I'm not sure what you call this sound, I know it's some type of House, but yea. Shit goes
2767806, work in progress
Posted by Jive Alive, Mon Jan-07-13 10:54 AM
this one was tough! I just used the opening piano sample pitched way down, and everything else is sampled from elsewhere. Still needs a bassline, but I wanted to get this in before we move on to chop #3

https://soundcloud.com/jejuly/dinah-winter-chop
2767849, i like this..maybe turn the piano up a little bit..but shit...
Posted by LAbeathustla, Mon Jan-07-13 01:40 PM
dont see a need for a bassline..dope
2767908, Dusty dopeness!
Posted by _Torchbaras, Mon Jan-07-13 04:08 PM
This that 90s jazzhop right here - feelgood shhh to vibe to!

Extra layer was SPICE, and as stated above, no need for bass really.

Solid work!
2767982, this reminds me of some old nonce sounding shit
Posted by judono, Mon Jan-07-13 09:12 PM

Nice switch up from the intro, chorus got a bit repetitive but hey...

THEN you stripped it and threw on that organ, bass and drums - that was DOPE!
Actually, scratch that sample and jus build the beat like that - that shhh went!!!

Good one.
2768857, LOL i was wondering when the cutoff was...
