this took over 100 takes... I'm almost positive Dilla did this one on his MPC3000 LE because I literally didn't have enough pads to do the intro. RIP to J Dilla, one of the greatest producers of all time.
oh people are very aware as a matter of fact dont cry is the only dilla beat most people know its hilarious 😂 its a pretty mediocre beat compared to the rest of his catalogue and not even in the top of donuts you circlejerk people are very annoying 😴
@@Sarcasticallyinchargmaybe im wrong, but I dont really get why this should be hard. He has 4 different banks, each with 8 different sample chops, that means he just has to remember the sequence of the sample chops played
@@vcbf101honestly man, i’ve seen so much controversy over that. who knows if the book is true. In an interview the author said some things were interpreted and might not be true
@@Fretlesswash thats ok. Basically its just like mini libraries of sounds. If you have 16 pads for example. Each pad holds one sound. So you have what is called banks which holds multiple libraries of 16 pad variations which you can switch between so you have access to more sounds if that makes sense?
The kicks and snares CAME WITH THE CHOPS.....DO YOU UNDERSTAND HOW FUCKING INSANE THAT IS....This is one of the greatest beats ever created. RIP JayDee
Always been a fan of dilla but now that im learning more about the gear he used my first thought was "how the FUCK did he make beats like dont cry with the limitations of the 303?" and here you are bro. so inspiring, you and him, newfound love respect and appreciation for the artform after seeing this.
@RallyCar08 yea that was an urban legend that PBWolf & Egon debunked years ago. Most of donuts was done when Dilla first got to LA. The album was in its final mix stages by the time he was hospitalized
Anybody that knows the chops and how limited the SP303 is knows how incredibly difficult this is to accomplish.. this is dope af... this is one of the beats the made me question if Donuts was made with the 303 but this proved it was...🔥🔥🔥🔥
You were right the first time, if you have the chance, check out the book “Dilla Time”! The author clarifies JD produced all of donuts 🍩 n Pro Tools alone. Nevertheless, beautiful work recreating on the 303!! ☮️ 🌎 ❤️ 🌊 🍩
@@stillmaticz847i loved finding this out. it’s easy to worship the gear but the book really told a story of dilla constantly finding new technology, pushing it to its limits, and then looking for the next thing to master. he was not a purist about the gear
I've been DJing since 96, a sophomore in high school, and have been producing in the studio about half that time, and all I can say is wow. Your timing and focus is Lazer my dude holy f! Nicely done. For real!
I was just listening to don't cry and then I saw you dropped this! Very very impressive, Dilla would be proud you figured it out, especially on a 303. Rest in beats J Dilla.
I’m back again. Clapping for you. I’ve learnt so much more from your videos than most sources . This is unbelievable I still need to count the amount of jumps from banks you do .
i get this video recommended to me so much and i watch it every time. I played it and then tabbed out to check something and forgot i played this and i thought that i started listening to spotify instead of a recreation. well done.
this is unbelievably crazy! im eagerly waiting more content, also your self-produced beats! i recently learned that dilla mostly used pro tools on donuts
Wow, got recommended this video and I honestly told myself "there's no way he can pull this off just as well". l have to say you definitely did, good shit!
@@Cats-Eye Yeah, the legend that he did all of Donuts with a 303 on his death bed is very exagerated. He did a lot the beats before his hospitalisation and he used Pro Tools a lot in the process. But I mean who cares? Still one of the best album I ever heard. And this cover is super good. Insane.
Read dilla time, the book. Donuts was made on pro tools on his laptop mostly. The book also opens up alot of the claims of dilla not using any quantization etc.
@@Cats-Eye wondering how that was even possible since as far as I know, on the 3000, you can only cut off 3 pads at a time. People worked around it with th enote off feature, but you would have to release a pad right when you hit the other one. A track like this would be really hard to do precisely quickly.
@47 Everything I read somewhere it’s 2 songs but I don’t believe that? One of them is definitely One for Ghost (on Ghostface’s Fishscale album) and another is definitely Stepson of the Clapper as that was a chopped up version of a beat he did for De La Soul (Verbal Clap)

@@einarthorgeirsson728 respectfully, comparing playing guitar and a few buttons is stupid
Bro you are a magician, can't believe you did it on the SP-303 - the bank switches are so smooth and clever
Pretty cool to run into you over here
that song was made on the sp303
during Dilla's days on hospital :)

Thats skills right there. Switching between banks without missing a beat.
Sorry this so late but what is a bank ?
I can see it in the machine but i dont know what it is and cant find anything to explain.

based lili player
I cant comprehend how tough memorising those sequences and matching them up to pace were .
Damn son!! This like beating Castlevania on NES with one life! 🙏😎👍

the fact you did this largely without the sequencer is insane
Not always needed
Jay Dee did all this in a hospital bed while suffering from a terminal illness. He was a legend.
May he rest in peace.
The bank switches were crazy and the memory of what to press is crazy!
God damn bro you killed this. As a 303 head this is just absolute amazing level of talent

"Dilla would be proud" is the highest level of praise you can give a beat maker.
insane amount of time and effort put in and it shows
hell yes, those bank switches were so clean
This is simply amazing
like this is the sickest thing ever - perfect recreation
That just absolutely blew my mind!
the intricacy is actually insane homie
this is absolutely insane.. brilliant
Ya fr tho
this is so cool!! i've always been blown away by dilla's production, so seeing it being demonstrated is mad awesome
This is awesome, really nailing the work on these beats
Was a pleasure watching you put that together, great job man
This was truly a treat to watch. Fell in love with this beat the first time I heard it.
Absolutely gorgeous amazing work dude
So admirable! Great performance!
INCREDIBLE!
This is so far the best remake i've seen. Every single chop is exactly in pocket right on time. Good Job
you absolutely crushed this man! perfect execution - the 100+ takes were worth it in the end
happy dilla day to all , really sick video, shows just how crazy these chops are
Insane!! Beautifully done🔥
Some people are so talented man I stg
This is the best rendition I’ve seen the chops are perfect
Incredibly clean, great work. Dilla forever

Amazing work my man, brings tears to my eyes just as much as the original. Love how is work transcends beyond all of us
Nah nahhh this is insaneeee!
Damn,im really feelin this. This is in my opinion one of his most complicated beats and you laid it down great.
This is amazing! Well done and what a masterpiece. RIP Dilla
Amen RIP to Dilla 💯🙏
This is one of the best things I've seen on the internet. Wow. My mind is honestly blown.
Very good man, you have a way, a beautiful tribute

I might have commented before but this is wild stuff man. well done.
This is blowing me away, you got it down to a t holy shit. Insanely impressive
Holy shit.. so dope, remembering all those pieces spread across all those banks. That took serious work and skill, well done.
