    Ya it's a shame. And with cue points, they can set up every part of their set to do stuff that you can never do with just vinyl. Back then it was about putting actual tape and stickers on the vinyl just to get it to loop lol. Just did yesterday. Today was busy. Happy ILL!

    22 years of ILL

    Good guess but yeah it had nothing to do with that lol. I think people probably thought it was because of Illmatic but nah. I suppose illmatic.com would have worked really well! DJing has changed so much since the 90s. I used to follow the battles religiously but now it's all beeps and boops...

    There was a illbeats or something like that once. Even that doesn't have the same effect.

    Beat This! Competition - October 19-20, 2022

    In the past yeah but for this one I wanted to have all full songs against each other. What I'm hearing so far is dope!

    I think I was leaning more towards "becreative.com", like to motivate people to get better with their beats. It sounds hella lame though.

    Beat This! Competition - October 19-20, 2022

    It's not an option. It's full song, no instrumentals.

    Yes, it's gone by fast. Whenever I think about it how long it's been, it's just so weird.

    Fatality FIGHT! Battle #181

    Yeah but your beat is chiptune on a Hip Hop site, so that's why it's hard to judge and/or vote.

    I'll probably post something like this each year from now on lol. Happy ILL Day! I don't want to get all sentimental but when the server went down for a bit today, it just hit me that yeah - it's been 22 years of IllMuzik! October of 2000 is when it all started and we're still here. I never...

    Breaking Down J Dilla's Microchopping Technique

    I've noticed a few guys do this now. I just find it annoying. I did a video a while ago about Dilla's quantizing (or lack thereof) where I give actual examples. I guess I'm just tired of the clickbait stuff like those over the top thumbnails everywhere. But Dilla was definitely ahead of his...

    Anyone Remember This Group?

    Barbara Walters, Madonna, 20/20 lol. Back then though I couldn't even buy that album because I remember when a lot of American stuff that wasn't mainstream were IMPORTS in Canada, so the price was much higher. Sometimes I'd have to get the store to order an album lol. That seems so foreign and...

    Anyone Remember This Group?

    LOL, I remember this when it came out. It was dope but weird at the same time because it felt like no one was taking it seriously. This is some crazy shit to have prisoners making an album and it get airtime.

    Breaking Down J Dilla's Microchopping Technique

    I hate videos like this where they just take random clips to explain something. I'd rather see an actual tutorial!
