[luiswega]

ouu ok ok that was dope fam 

[zsigafari]

i wanna use whith no computer this is real?

[PrimosInteParas]

This was one of the instructional videos I've seen on youtube. It was clear, concise, and flowed well logically. I've recently got an MPK49 so this video is very timely as far as beat construction goes. The only thing I didn't like - wuzzup wit da mask, Dude? Is this the Music Man or Friday the 13th's Jason droppin a monsta Hip Hop beat? R u hidin' from da cops or an ex-wife?

[SamSwagert]

its hollywood!

[WackoBeats]

that is sick stuff

[APNumen]

That was really helpfull :D I'm going to take 49-key version... But not sure...

But your lesson is awesome :D

[SygacityTv]

Thanks for all the love & support. I originally did this video for a select group of friends but decided to make it public. One thing I would like to stress is that with music, especially hiphop, despite the consistency of certain sounds & elements (kick, snare, percussion, bass, etc) there are countless styles, patterns, & approaches involved in the creative process so please take my videos with a grain of salt as I'm only sharing my "perspective" but I'm back in the lab so stay tuned for more!

As a professional composer and producer, I can honestly say this guy needs to practice a lot before posting to youtube. No offense but before posting a person should have practiced what they are adding to the community. You do have potential though, but still kinda raw. Maybe next time try writing a beat without using a chopped up sample. Maybe a virtual instrument, plus you have mpc pads, why don't you use them it's much more natural for percussion. Please don't get offended just opinions.

[SygacityTv]

@gabrielrose1234 Hello sir, thanks for sharing your thoughts & no I'm not offended but perhaps you didn't watch or listen to the video in it's entirety. I say this because in this video I'm not showcasing by "skills" or talents as a professional producer (which I am as well, more to come) but rather going over some "basics" of hiphop production & sampling. There are countless ways to producing music so maybe this wasn't your style or taste but I respect your opinion.

[mrBrianlovesmovies]

give us another one music man!

[SygacityTv]

@mrBrianlovesmovies Your wish is my command! lol, I'll be dropping another vid shortly...

MIDI= MUSICAL INSTRUMENT DIGITAL INTERFACE

[Alkaholik10]

do u know how to put samples onto the pads and/or keys, kinda like how kanye does it with the MPC?? also, im using Ableton Live 8.

[ScrewTheLiving]

@Alkaholik10 the MPK is just a controller, so no samples go on it. You have to set up a sampler in Ableton Live and assign midi keys from the MPK onto it.

[xXBanger36Xx]

Do you use a programm for your pc ? And if you do, wich ?

[JosephCee]

Dude this video awesome. UR f**king awesome! Boombap drums, sample, my man. Keep it up.

[pawnone]

[pawnone]

you guys think he's like tha phantm o hiphop, like maybe some crazy bitch burnt his face so now he mainly haunts youtube and strip clubs????

or maybe the british gov is after him for blowin up parlement with bass frequencies or something????

or maybe he's just some guy who doesnt want to show his face for fear of youtube haters...

Seriously, thanks a lot for the video. I learned a lot, can't wait to watch your other work.

[SmallFish616]

remember remember the 5th of november... love the samples btw, where are they from?

[AfterShadow]

The drums you refer to is actually the Bass/Kick.

[MrMrSalazarr]

@AfterShadow It's not actually a kick...It's just a drum sound taking the place of the kick.

[SygacityTv]

@MrMrSalazarr yea, I meant to elaborate that in the video. Kicks/Drums/Bass can be used interchangeably in most cases & of course how it sounds... thanks for the clarification.

[WprEmiere1985]
