Rep The King - Make Beats With Reason MPD32 Oxygen8 - Sample Flip Hip-Hop Beat

http://TaurusBeats.com

If you want to make a Hip-Hop beat or instrumental music with a sample flip, you can use Propellerhead's Recycle and Reason 4.01, the Akai MPD32 USB/MIDI hardware control surface and the M-Audio Oxygen8 v2 USB/MIDI keyboard control surface to get the job done.

In this video series, I'm showcasing another one of my Moody instruMental Music creations - "Rep The King" - a Hip-Hop sample flip beat I made using Propellerhead Reason.

I show you how I choose and slice my sample using Propellerhead ReCycle and then move into using Reason with the MPD32 to flip the sample into various patterns to use in the beat. I also show you how I add various instrument parts to develop the final track.

Samples from:
"This Mother's Daughter" by Nancy Wilson

You can get a lot more tips by viewing the other videos in this 5-part series.

That was crazy. Truly inspiring.

Back in the day I had a mpc3000 but did most of my music production on my various keys because the keys are what i do. After watching your video, I can only say that AKAI should be paying you money because I WAS on the fence about springing for that mpd32. Now its late at night and I am fighting the urge to drive by the local music chain way too slow for my own good... Seriously can't wait til the store opens...

Keep making fire!

@AirForceJuan2 - Thanks for the kind words! Glad you enjoyed the video. The MPD32 changed the way I make music and inspired a different sound/style. It's one of my best purchases.

@TaurusBeats hi! is there any "core" musical functions you would miss in the mpd18 compared to the mpd32?

[TaurusBeats]

@MyRitmo - No, there are no core musical functions that I would miss with the MPD18 compared to the MPD32. I might miss the transport controls though.

dope beat taurus . send it to me so i could rip it up with a tight flow LOL..".....

[TaurusBeats]

@albertoivanortizz - Glad you like the track. Download it FREE. The link is in the description. Let's hear what you got.

[TaurusBeats]

@DrezotheDog - Actually, I'm not striking the pads hard at all. The mic on the camera makes it sound worse than it really is. But then again, it's all relative. So, the next person can say that I'm "pounding" the pads. The velocity sensitivity on the MPD32 is programmable. I just haven't changed mine.
