Howdy folks, I ain't been here in a while so I'm tryin' to get my feet wet again by asking a pretty basic question. What are ya'lls favorite non-hiphop producers?
I ask because lately I've been off listening to lots of different styles and genres of music just to get a feel for how they make...
Who yall think are the most underrated producers are?
My Nominees are:
1.) Salaam Remi
2.) Bink!
3.) Ayatollah
...these dudes all, in one way, shape or form, helped me mold my style and they never really get the respect the deserve.
Who do yall think is dope but always falls...
I was recently informed that there is a software program called Fruity Tracks. Has anyone ever heard of and/or used this? I was told that it resembles Fruity Loops only in the form of a multi-track sequencer. Can someone explain this?

I know I haven't been here long but I must confess that this site has become an important part of my life. I'm on here practically every day just soaking up everything. If it wasn't for the people on this site, I wouldn't know as much about producing as I do know, so I would like to give a big...
some how my O.S. disk for my EPS got ERASED!! I cant load it up or anything. Is there any hope of retrieving the data or puttin' it back on there somehow? or do i have to buy another one?!?!

It seems that so often the first song of an album goes overlooked. either they are too boring to listen to every time you put the cd in or they're just not as interesting as the rest of the album, but every once in a while there'll be an intro that makes you say "DAAAAMMMNNN!!!" and gets you...
I've been foolin' around with this and the only problem i'm having is that the thing heats up too damn quick. I'm on it for like 20 minutes and it overheats! do anybody know how to keep it cool?

Hey, what's the deal with Swizz Beatz sampling vocals from the black album. Cassidy has a new song called "I'm a Hustla" which uses a part of dirt off ya shoulders, and TI has a song called "Bring 'Em Out" which samples what more can I say.
Has anyone heard these songs and if so, does anyone...
I usually go there to listen to the songs and test my diggin knowledge, but when I went there today, it was something else. I would just like to know what is going on!

My question is, how do you do it? I realize that you would need some sort of turntable (would a portable one work) and a sampler (MPC, ASR-10, somethin like that), but how do you connect them together. I found a whole lot of records and 45's at this garage sale and I wanna start sampling off...
Do anybody got this and should I cop it? Madlib is my dude, and I was gonna get it based on the sole fact that I like his beats so much, but Jay Dee, I know who he is but Im not to familiar with his work. Could someone refresh my memory on what he's done.
Gimme some feedback before I decide...
I got the Ghostface "Pretty Toney" album not to long ago and I was listening to "It's Over"
and it has a sample of a song called "I'm afraid the masquerade is over" and noticed it kinda sounds like Biggie's "Who Shot Ya". Does anybody know if these two songs have the same sample or do they...
