    Rick Rubin: The Invisibility of Hip Hop's Greatest Producer

    With this one. Kinda yes. But i think the wording of that can sound quite aggressive or intimidating. Sounds like something you'll hear on a job course and you have to "select" good values. I think rephrased/framed as... Your values reflect who you are. May be better. For example, a few of...

    Rick Rubin: The Invisibility of Hip Hop's Greatest Producer

    @Armani I think the thing is, you're trying to impose thinking onto things. Like, trying to 'think' what your values should be, rather than reflecting on what your values are. One way to find your values is reflect on; - what do you spend your time on - what stirs you emotionally for...

    Thanks I appreciate you. Yeah I love that aspect of it aswell. I was really quite pleased with this beat. Your beat was real cool, smooth jazzy, could imagine Big L over the initial bit. N cool that you experimented, n it worked in a smooth way - so much so I didn't even think to question it...

    :bomb: I appreciate you, brother! I really like that synth-string type thing I played that comes in. It was actually quite weird to play, as it had a slow attack. But I played it and ooof. Your beat is real cool. The kinda 'many kick drum' thing confuses me a little tho, I never know what to...

    haha my bad G. I was probably just jealous about that dope af sample. I just felt like the sample was so strong and winning the beat, I just wished maybe like the drums were doing a little more too, if they were, i would have voted before listening to the rest*. Either way, dope. *(and then...

    But you and whoever were condemning me for saying the mix element wasn't most important to me, saying if a beat didn't have a good mix you wouldn't vote for it. Whereas just cause cause a beat has a good mix doesn't mean it's a good beat. I rather vote for a dirty diamond than a polished turd...

    I've always said i vote to the rules and my own criteria. Remeber you were saying you only vote on 25% of the voting criteria. Whereas i said i prioritise the other 75%.

    But there ain't really no need for talking about it, Fade made the rules... there was rules that to some divided opinion on whether they were being broken or not, some people said they feel it did, others didn't, so Fade responded by adding a rule that makes it more clear when it is/isn't...

    I mean, using things that would appear outside the rules to gain a favour definitely would be classed as unfair. Using beat tags in anonymous battles could definitely be seen as unfair. If something says you can't do/use something and someone does. that would be unfair. It's like if someone...

    How to create a new midi instrument from individual notes

    You do it in a Sampler. In Studio One I'd use SampleOne instead as presence requires a paid upgrade to edit. You map each note in the pack across the keyboard in your sampler. You'll have to YouTube mapping samples in your sampler of choice. It's roughly as easy as just mapping each note to...

    Same. Various professionals. I've had a few. House/soul Artists. DJs. Artist Managers. People played in (successful) bands, people who have mentored and/or worked with successful acts. That's just my mentors too. The people i've met/know and got real quality advice from just add to that list...
