[cmoneygrande]

What's the Wes Montgomery song you played?

[Myger402]

I like that part at the end. Straight wisdom. I always look to dig and learn shit before I even attempt to mess with it. you'll know the song better that way too

Informative. I know you made remake of 9th wonder's "shorty on the lookout". I was wondering if you could figure out Alchemist's "stuck on you". The chops in the verse are tough.

nice vid.....

[jazzriff]

I totally agree. I think musicians/producers that stand the test of time are the ones that are the most informed. It's imperative to check out as much music as possible, regardless of if it's your "favorite" genre or not. Basically, it's like being a bear or some other hibernating animal. You ingest as much "food" as you can so that when you sit in front of the laptop/piano/keyboard/trumpet, etc., what you "ate" months/yrs. ago comes out organically. THAT'S how you get your style!

Nice cut, and good advice...keep em comin

[bananaxtree]

Great advice about respecting the music. We all want to make a beat as hot as Madlib, but he didn't just grab the records out of the crate to start producing. Listen listen listen, it took me a little while to fully understand it myself, I would listen maybe once or twice and start looping. Play your records at parties and pay attention to what catches people's attention. These will be your hot spot for sampling. (in my opinion)
