Mary Anne Hobbs - Building the Beat

[shoeboxdnb]

another breathtaking achievement with Starkey's signature all over it.. I love it

[OriginallyInspired]

jonah hill?



[sofuckinndope]

such a weird little song they came up with

its tight

no doubt

but weird

[DaGleese]

mary anne hobbs has got the coolest voice ever

[NJBZX]

@DaGleese erm...actually the girl with the black hair isn't Mary Anne Hobbs. Mary Anne Hobbs is the one with the white hair woman. The DJ inside the room.

[DaGleese]

@NJBZX i know that! thats who i'm talking about man!

[passionfruit1890]

lol auto-tune 1:50 haha and also all that in two hours pretty kool i think

[fun4balls]

1:50 HAHAHHHAH AUTOTUNED XD

[thebrewsrider]

Killer vid, mad props

[TheMiddleMan667]

MAD RESPECT, 2 HOURS! wow, magnificent quality of a track, i spend 12 hours on 4 minute songs and i don't think they sound this good

[phchmogh]

fucking garbage.

[pcmaster888]

1:50 lol autotune...

[bushwarn0]

props

[timsurftim]

reso's a legend at producing

[weareallanemic]

Starkey!!!!! <3

[TserraG]

I can't even do my chem homework in two hours.

[CountDubstepula]

Mary Anne Hobbs your a DON!

[rioamericanosucks]

major respect for starkey

[zan25051]

Sick track. I really like it! I think it needs another couple hours of just polishing to make it gleam, but for 2 hours this is insane.

[kayloh11]

this is DORKSTEP



[sf49ersrule]

@kayloh11 better than that Skrillex bullshit., which I refer to as GARBAGESTEP

[kayloh11]

@sf49ersrule

i agree

[kayloh11]

Respond to this video...  dorkstep was a compliment

[Pomaori]

This sucks

[xH0R0R]

i want to see reso do this!

[w35m4n]

Ahaha Ron Burgundy! That's impressive as hell, all that finished in 2 hours. I like it, not my favourite but it's pretty cool especially for that short amount of time.

[WalkAwayVietnam]

Big up to starkey that is impressive, but Reso should of orchestrated this one, most dubstep producers recognise him as being one of the most intense producers going, you can tell by listening to any track he's ever released!

[xcrisx]

so what is the song actually cold? i want it!

[sf49ersrule]

@xcrisx I asked him, he said it is what it is, probably not gonna release it...

[sheatheman]

all of these people are dorks too

[sheatheman]

whether you like it or not, it is pure skill to produce this in 2 hours. dumb lyrics though.

[munchie400]

starkey kills it

[electrolyfe]

tim westwood haha.

[oldrockerproductions]

fair play within 2 hours. it takes hours and hours to produce tracks at this quality, tho the vocal mix is a let down

[qazzy]

crazy for a two hour track. Also learned a few things too lol

[groovekiller]

reso biting his lip, reso shoulda captained this. Starket did good too I just like Reso better

[ARTerialBleed]

not one peson on here chattin their bullshat could drop anything close to this in under 2 hours.

[Nosestoner]

What's the name of the track?

[dvkillz1]

would much rather of liked to see reso in creative control

[NHKNHC]

Absolutly big tune!!!!

[Pepouni]

reso was always better for me too...

still nice how they did so fast

[aytches]

well, i don't like it. but i guess it's still impressive for the short amount of time they had.

[DJWelfare]

Class!!!

[MrBUSSINESGUY1]

anyone knows about mary anne hobbs qutin' bbc?:S

[siberiankyss]

what. the. fuck. is with all the HATRED on this video?!?!?! I give Starkey MADD kudos for dropping this shit in only 2 hours.... if you truly can't appreciate engineering, mixing, song-writing and producing in this amount of time, then I don't think you deserve to have an opinion about the song nor the process...

@CHIHUAHUAconda he wasn't using ProTools, he was using Logic Pro... and NI's Massive was just one of the virtual synths he used....

[paralelSun]

@siberiankyss agreed. people fear/hate what they dont understand.

[LewistheJedii]

starkeys a bit of a control freak yea. reso has produced much better tracks, starkey is and always has been piss in muh opinion.

track sucks btw lolololol

[outintheflood]

@LewistheJedii if you had any clue about what your talking about, id agree with you. You dont, so shut ya mouth.

[LewistheJedii]

@outintheflood you bear no argument mate, how dont i know?

[outintheflood]

@LewistheJedii First of all, you havent a fucking clue. Cos if you actually listend to starkey, you wouldnt be saying hes shit. Secondly, why dont you get your copy off O.M.G and wank over the poppy dubstep tunes on there.

[LewistheJedii]

@outintheflood listen man, the only time ive enjoyed starkey is when he mixes other peoples tunes. i dont like starkey because i dont prefer his sound. his seclusasis mix where he dropped the dz- do for love (VIP) version was my favorite from him. only because thats a very rare tune, not dz's original but his vip version. i prefer deep sounds like pangea, ramadan, cooly g, skream, zomby. the poppiest shit ive listened to is james blake. everyone gets an opinion. starkey is just what i dont like

[Nosestoner]

@LewistheJedii Nobody cares

[LewistheJedii]

@outintheflood anything from hessle will up and destroy starkey

[sf49ersrule]

@LewistheJedii thats your opinion. to me, starkey is the best dubstep artist out there.

[Jowellzzz]

@LewistheJedii Real talk. Although there is some heavy shit on Planet Mu.

[gomachols]

people have recorded thousands of songs with much greater merit in the amount of time it takes to listen to them. hows that for amazing?

so, you don't get any 'wow i'm impressed' points on that end. so as a song... its total shit.

[jaydakilla420]

name of the song.....anybody kno

[Imfromthafutur]

that's a nice track. cool behind the sceens edit too. mice work H!

[CHIHUAHUAconda]

Does he do all of his software work in Pro Tools or does he have more going on? Like rewire, or working in other software and exporting to protools, etc...

?

[CHIHUAHUAconda]

@CHIHUAHUAconda or no that's Massive, sorry. Ok. But same question, just substitute "Massive" with "Pro Tools". lol

[neopandorex2]

@CHIHUAHUAconda ... no, hes using LOGIC prolly because its the most compatible system with a mac laptop.. any daw would allow u to do the same, he uses massive too and i heard him f around with that damn brutal electro patch i cant hear anymore...

[joshmolina3]

WERE CAN I BUY THIS SONG?!?!?!?!?

[bonzotracker]

glad he makes tracks as disposable as people will consume them

[UltraWill]

Tune is nice, but I'm reeling in my chair about the concept of the entire show! I would tune in 24/7 if this kind of concept had a station to itself.

[Jungleros]

hahaha look mary ann at 5.35

[bambaclad86]

anneka has such a beautiful voice, and when layered like in this track, its just perfect. listened to the show live, loved the tune then, and still lovin it now, great tune, great production for the time limit, great show!!!!

[Robluvsmusic16]

ever since the amazing mary anne hobbs mentioned starkey, i hav become a huge fan of his music!

[Vodafone16v]

The track is amazing. Anneka's vocals go perfectly along wit'it. Starkey knows the future! and in contrast to Reso, is headlining much of the "avant-garde" dubstep productions. Nevertheless, Reso is the most versatile dubstep producer out there, and Temjin is all'bout THAT. Great show MaryAnne. Much love.

[ollypollypoo]

Very interesting...

Personally I think the song is a bit shite...!

Havn't listened to Anneka's music, but there doesnt seem to be much influence from either Reso/Starkey's own stuff in this, which is rather confusing to say the least!

I think Reso would of been better leading this as I think his overall production sound is better than Starkey's.... also Starkey comes across like a complete and utter ponse!!

Having said all that, damn good feat considering the time limit and pressure!

[saramizkit]

@ollypollypoo I think it's great although I agree that Reso should have lead the whole thing. He's a much better producer than Starkey.

[ripripstabstab]

agreed

[ripripstabstab]

This track is garbage. Reso would've been the better lead and the cheesy vocalist could've simply not existed.

[j1beatz]

How can you call Anneka cheesy? *facepalm*

[ripripstabstab]

Hey, let's get this vocalist to sing some flat lines over this empty track.

[groovekiller]

man i hate to think how much more of a tool you are with women you actually know. her voice is cheese, slightly boring but wotevz

[kingspam1]

sick as to a track in 2 hours is mad

[GFockerJCocker]

uber-impressive, to say the least!!

i'm dumbfounded, humbled. amazing display of creativity & teamwrk... & Anneka's vocal is mesmerizing.

LRG UPs to Starkey, Reso, Anneka & ensemble!!

[stralavantius]

Absolutly legendary !

[NornIronLegends]

The tunes nice, very nice, Starkey FTW

[QuiksilverVM]

Imo reso and starkey fit well together

[gotemcoachbuttslmao]

this is a great song even if you ignore the fact that it was made from the ground up in under 2 hours. maybe the pressure of a deadline like that made the creative juices flow faster. anyway, impressive.

[sphinx0lution]

good job guys!

it would be very interesting to know which software and hardware has been used to produce that tune. is there any chance for at least a detailed list of the software tools used on the macbook?

[BananaBomberUK]

@sphinx0lution logic pro 9

[VladTepeshu]

its sick, its insane, its chaos :)))

[BananaBomberUK]

is that just a macbook that starkey has or a macbook pro ?

[SlitJockey]

it's a bit older mac book pro, core 2 duo.

[donemix]

@BananaBomberUK macbook pro

[donemix]

@BananaBomberUK macbook pro 2008 17". new gen mac book pros (2009/2010) suck asshole

[petitepix]

@aristotlepunkmusic yeah, but this is absolute quality. After reading your comment, I feel secure in the knowledge that this is much better than anything you've ever made or will ever make in your life. Starkey is a genius! As is Reso!

[aristotlepunkmusic]

if you notice I said "nice tune" not my style tho

as I said producing a tune in two hours is just not that great, it bin done many times over and in less time.

history of music my friend. I have been playing for over 25 years, and am a R.C.O.M grad. in piano vocal a guitar. how about you?

[cyder534]

@aristotlepunkmusic

Always get some arm-chair cretin who is mysteriously brilliant; yet, where is the evidence of your prodigious talent?

[synthact1]

thats just a sickkkkkk sickkkkkkkkk tuneeeeeeeee.......big up!!!

[syntaxical]

Nice work guys, looks like a fun night!

[pazurlizedupy]

[FinnishSisu]

[Tritium8]
