You haven't outdone yourself yet since the "Stop That" beat. But you are cranking them out quickly and that's a good thing in my eyes because trying new things is the quickest way to improve. I feel like I learn something every new beat that I try to make. This beat is rather complex but it is hard to picture anybody being able to add vocals over it.
2 questions
How long does it generally take you to make a beat? and
Do you sell your beats or do you just make them for fun?
Thanks for the input guys..
Yeah.. I agree with ya... on basically all you said..
I usually spend an afternoon making a really complex beat...
Back when I first started I would spend days and days..
I remember a funny story...
My girl in high school (now ex) and I rented a house when I was 18... She went to prom "with the girls"... lol... I stayed home banging on some Reason 1.0 haha... when she returned (with a party of 10 or so) to party, I stayed in the studio room and kept making my beat...
Her friend Brittany came in... "what's that annoying sound all about'.. I said, "I'm trying to get this synth part to sound right"...
Soon after, she ran out around the house all drunk like and started screaming at my girlfriend to make me stop... hahaha..
I was like " Get her outta here!"
lol...
Haven't sold a beat yet.. Bad market for 'em... I do have one on Change's new album though...
Good cd by the way.. THE ENTIRE THING
EDIT: That beat I was making back in the day is the "My First Beat (Almost)", which is on my SoundClick page..
