sample source: crystal Clear persuasion by Tommy James and the Shondells

[Saintboss]

[cesarbaca]

I like the way you fliped your chops.

[fallloftroy]

Sick sample, sick drums, Sick flip.

[TruffelMusic]

[naigamon]

"Sometimes simple is good. " <- word

[astrotravelin]

[inspactorbeat]

[coolchild2001]

That snare is totaly sage francis.

[WLG1]

what does that even mean? sage francis raps over snares that sound just like that one? well guess what, so does the rest of hip hop, it's called a drum break.

[TheBlackViper]

i love this beat dude...these are my fave samples to chop, laxed out guitar/bass cuts

[revolverfive]

[DaveChorowskiMusic]

[scottschiller]

This video was sampled by Kutiman for "Thru-You", he basically went beat digging on YouTube and made music from videos of keyboards, singing, rapping etc. Check it out.

thru-you (dot com)

[faithsonshyne]

[treeZon1]

SHIT MAN....i flipped same sampled..dope man...go check my beat number 9

[micksdaname2000]

Yea what is that sample, the guitars and all? I like that beat!!

[onionbootyman]

The sample is from a song called Crystal Blue Persuasion by Tommy James & The Shondells.

[saawordup]

yo im liking this man... the drums pattern is rocking to perfect fit all though im not to much about real chopppy tracks i did dig this one

[marxhale]

i think thats the clearest picture i ve ever seen on tube:) keep on practice

MPC rules

[sandslayer75]

cool calm pete flipped that sample hard for his album but urs is dope too

[DaubleIDea]

Whats that spanish-themed sample called? I don't think it is called "South of the border" because I just searched that song and it wasn't it. I've been looking for that song forever!

[bjed21]

I could be wrong but that sounds like wars song "all day music" to me.

[GoldenDigital]

The song is called "Crystal Blue Persuasion" by Tommy James and the Shondelles

[EztheDon]

sorry, sheek alreadt murdered a beat using that sample. dont u hate it when that happens? good vid tho. keep it up

[scottschiller]

All good, Cypress Hill used Manzell drums etc. in 94 - I'm sure most everything I used has been sampled elsewhere too.

[boooiii]

Man, listen to Guru: Rap is an art you can't own no loops

It's how you hook em up and the rhyme style troop!

That says it all, no offence!

[rssie]

what camera you used, its nice and clear ;)

[scottschiller]

Panasonic/Lumix DMC-FX01 (6MP photo camera, also does 848x480 video at 30 fps.)

[MindzEnt]

oh shit i just made a remix with that same song.. just a diff part of the sample.. mos def also used that song with a diff cut on "ms. fatbooty"

[musicmongo69]

ayatollah made the ms. fat booty beat...

[infamousinz]

how long u been djing and making mpc beats?

[returninginsurgent]

the drums are on the manzel album entitled midnight theme. forget the song title.

[roboshuffle]

The song is called Midnight Theme, innit?

[jazzysunny]

ain its a phrase from DE-PHAZZ?

I heard exactly the same phrase startin' from 02:14 in ur video on the official website of DE-PHAZZ...anyway..good chilling out beat, i love it

[scottschiller]

I forget actually where I found that one - Random oldies a friend had brought over. I know of De-Phazz, would be a pretty random coincidence if they'd used the same.

[jazzysunny]

anyway~ nice work man~! ur username right here is scottchiller.. u also like chillout music~?im just lovin it~ btw is that if i get one mpc2500, a computer , a pair of speakers n some softwares then I can play some sampling already~? im totally new to digital audio stuff just want get started..~ thz for answering..! regards SunnyL

[scottschiller]

You can get an MPC (expensive), or software on a computer and then connect an MPC-style "trigger pad" which is like the MPC pads but with a USB connector.

[jazzysunny]

thz for answering

i know the price of mpc already

thats alrighty for me

just wanna play some cool stuff making my own chill beat ,thats so cool :'D

Thzz again

a msg from Hong Kong

best regards

SunnyL

[jazzysunny]

ahhah..actually money is not my big concern~

and i know the price of mpc2500 also..really expensive..but i can afford it

sorry for bothering again

i wanna know if u have any good websites for the starters to use mpc2500?

and some how-to stuff?

thz for answering again

[AMOKIAN]

I love coffee

[hiphophobbyklub]

I GOT SKILLZ,BABY!!!

[paulwilliams87]

dude thats wack thats a mpc 2500 and thats the best drum loop you can come up wit you better put that mpc on ebay

[scottschiller]

Who said that was the best? I've done better, and different-er. ;)

[paulwilliams87]

ok then

[Bcuz1192]

Sometimes less is more. With sounds added, simplicity might be better than complex stuff.

[DatSh0rTy]

OMG MAN ii LiiKE DiiZ BEAT YO YUH SHOULD SEND ME DAT BEAT...

[elsewherebeats1]

cool bruh check out the beats at myspace(dot)com/elsewherebeats

[snubnose38]

How original...*PUKES*

[LG1674213]

stay away from fruty loop, you need a real application. Digital Performer. that my friend is no JOKE>

[edekzkrainykredekk]

have u used any software as fruity loops or reason before you got your mpc?

[scottschiller]

No, the MPC was my first real production-related purchase. I do have a musical background, though.

[craw0528]

i'm feeling this one. it's more of what hip hop needs now a change.

[Bcuz1192]

Mainstream hiphop needs a change. There ain't nothing wrong with those underground artists like Fatlip, Pigeon John, Abstract rude and guys like those.

[synthburn]

wow i wouldnt dare drink even water near my shit, much less coffeiei

good video though, one of the better beat vidz around

[Hartformer]

You are the scott schiller that makes crazy stuff with javascript? Pd: Good beat, sounds like perfect for a sunday morning... :)

[scottschiller]

Thanks, man - yeah, I'm better at Javascript than I am at the MPC I think, have a ways to go. ;) It's pretty fun though.

[dubwiser]

another banger! i love the combo of those two drum loops and the chops making this track come together. tight!

[scottschiller]

Thanks. I think I've done better off-film, this was somewhat quick. Some other beats I've done are at freshly-ground (.com) /temp/beats

[scottschiller]

"Workflow" is 2 bars in this case, switching out tracks via track mute mode when playing back the beat (ie. adding layers, drums, piano etc.) Better ways to do it?

[hitcreatormusic]

What up. What kind of Camcorder are you using? The shit is clear as hell. And the audio sounds nice.Hollla back

[scottschiller]

Digital camera actually, does 848x480 widescreen 30fps(!)

Panasonic DMC-FX01

Audio is recorded on a computer (line out/in), then synced with the video (from memory card, etc.) for exporting.

[scottschiller]

Nice work on your sh*t too. I make better video than I do beats right now. Working on the latter. ;)
