Get relevant or get out?
I mean of course you hope other people like the shit you make, but at the end of the day if I like the shit I make I'm content with that. I mean really, I'm the dopest person I know hahaha *edit* It's been a few hours, but I've spent a good portion of those hours actually contemplating on what... -
Get relevant or get out?
Wholeheartedly disagree. I knew what I was doing already, I mean most kids start creating at a very young age. and being forced to create in a medium I had no interest in did little more than stifle my creativity. I don't need to study Van Gogh to draw a portrait. Learning a new language is... -
Get relevant or get out?
One of the biggest things I always hated in art class as a kid was being told what I need to make. I actually reasoned with my teachers that the whole point in art is creativity, and being set within a medium or on a project that I have no desire to do isn't going to produce anything good and... -
Get relevant or get out?
Yeah fucked if I know, i definitely relate to that i find im the same way. Maybe i'm just transitioning into a behind the times curmudgeon who doesn't understand what the kids like (Who am I kidding, I haven't understood that shit for years). I just don't see a problem with that. I suppose if... -
Get relevant or get out?
Honestly there's a place in music for everything. Relevance is what you make of it. Feelin' Boom bap? Make boom bap. Wanna sample disco and bang bang boogie said up jump the boogie? Go for it. Wanna have 808s smash your face in? that's cool too. I'm hard pressed to believe that a genre that... -
Producers - a Special Breed? (Another Pseudophilosphical BS ;))
Personally I just like forums for the way they work, which is what drew me here. I've been perusing online forums since early highschool, granted back then it was more the animation forums back when stick figure fighting was huge. I got a kick out of making that shit. Social media killed a huge... -

ayy buddy, welcome to the ill. I joined almost a year ago at this point, this is one of the most respectful forums I've ever seen for hip hop. Everyone's willing to help you steer you in the right direction. Don't get me wrong though, the competitive nature of hip hop is still here. Keep...- iDeaLoGiK

ytmp3.cc substitute
That youtube-dl isn't just command line. Theres a GUI for it. https://github.com/yt-dlg/yt-dlg Really good for batch downloading, and works like a hot damn if thats what you want to do. No frills, stupid graphics, ads and wont give your computer aids like a lot of the browser based shit...- iDeaLoGiK

Beat This! - December 1-2, 2021
Good work everyone, congrats Adante on the win I'm seriously considering doing a 70 bar flex piece to mine that I've been sitting on for years, complete with dated references about the drake/meek mill beef because it goes too well to not. Well, that is when I actually get the chance to...- iDeaLoGiK

Beat This! - December 1-2, 2021
I think mine is done. I may be hit or miss with musical, but I can sure as fuck do weird. Most fun I've had making a beat in a minute. A lot of sound design, which is new to me. Nothing in the beat so far sounds like it did before I started making it... strange, outside of a plucked cello...- iDeaLoGiK

Showcase - November 22-28, 2021
If any of you heard me complaining about a beat fighting me to sound good in the live chat, this is the one I was talking about. It took so many iterations of EQ sessions to make passable that I've basically lost interest. I had every interest in adding stuff to change it up and make it more...- iDeaLoGiK

Showcase - November 22-28, 2021
I like it. Real chill. Lots of cacophonous overtones that are pleasing to the ear in my opinion. One thing I will say, I don't know what the time signature is in the hook/changeup, but it definitely fucked me up trying to flow over it in the couple tries I did. Maybe its because it isn't 4/4...- iDeaLoGiK

I hate it when rappers talk about things they don't know shit about
Man, if rap gets you pussy, I must have be doing it wrong this whole time hahaha. Or I'm just a curmudgeony hermit that spends more time making beats and watching cartoons than going out and chasing pussy. There's always that. Seriously though, I had a buddy who would always start a session...- iDeaLoGiK

The 11th Commandment - "Have You Had Any Heartaches Lately?"
I like it. For some reason it makes me think pink panther... just creepier. Will say, I'm not a fan of the shit that comes in at 1:07. I mean it fits the uncanny valley vibe but I'd say its abrasive. Really like the drums. Definitely like the arrangement for your chops too.- iDeaLoGiK
