Great video! Gonna be kind of a nerd here, but a little misconception about Dilla's production is that he didn't use quantization in order to achieve his signature drum sound, when in reality he DID USE quantization, but in a different and creative way, something that no one ever did before him. So yeah, he was a genius innovator, but not because he decided to add random sloppiness on his drums, quite on the contrary, he was a master at achieving controlled loosenes, it was a very deliberate, meticulous and calculated process. The guy basically had his own way of perceiving time feel on music. If you are interested, check the book Dilla Time by Dan Charnas, he explains what Dilla did in a lot more detail.
so cool to see how dilla touched so many different walks of life. dude was a genius. i found out about him in 08 and have championed him as the greatest since.
he made the majority of these in the days with no wi fi no podcast miss these days good video its cool you showed appreciation for different genre im 47 from ny ive watched people shit on this art n style i still use my mpcs its my instrument 2023 mpc live mostly my sp404sx and playing different instruments records into it
I think it's amazing that he made his last album 🍩 donuts in a hospital bed using nothing but his Boss sp-303 sampler, a portable turntable and 45's..RIP Dilla 🔥
Thats been debunked that he made it a year before after getting out of the hospital n then when it got bad he put out yhe album 3 days before he passed n he made the beats on his laptop
This is so crazy.. Was driving home today listening to ‘Untitled Fantastic’ by Slum village just thinking - “I wonder how much Dilla got to use his new equipment” Rest In Peace & Greatness to one of the more elite producers.
All the drums in Def Leppards Pyromania and the next album the one the rocked them into mainstream popularity for a few year. So before Rick Allen lost his arms producer Mutt Lang was pushing for drum sounds found on pop albums. Wild
what version are you looking to get....the 1000 can do just about all with some japanese software [JJOS] which is very easy to obtain and also learn...however i feel like you should look into the 2500....My opinion its a midway point of the 1000 and 3000...in numbers however it came out after all of them....then the 4000, then 5000....everything else is pretty much computer n midi based....the novelty MPC500 was pretty cool too but so hard at sequencing (alot of math involved)....either way you go, i say at learn the analog versions first to appreciate the whole cut n paste versions that it is today. Renaissance, studio, etc etc.....
@creative_soul-recolo it's a cheaper option..altho the mpc one or [live I & II] are newer and around the same price (used) and easier to compose with. do ur research with a tutorial. There's sooo many on here that deep dive into it
I love how many different people are being exposed to DIlla these days. Makes me very happy as he's been part of and improved my life for decades. His music was magical and he will live on forever.
Can you do a series where u highlight a song or artist that u like and discuss why? Or do like ur top 5 fav artists or songs and discuss why. Can maybe make it a bi-weekly or monthly series?

Can't forget the swollen hands
Thats been debunked that he made it a year before after getting out of the hospital n then when it got bad he put out yhe album 3 days before he passed n he made the beats on his laptop
He didn't. He made it using Pro Tools and it wasn't done in the hospital.
Yeah, it's a nice story, isn't it?
This is so crazy..

At least they have something to show for it. Can't wait to get me an MPC no matter what version it is.

i found your channel today great review
I thought dilla made the donuts tracks on the sp303 though because he was on his deathbed
RIP DILLA 🕊🕊🕊✊🐐👑
DJ Dilla is such a dope name, even tho its not his name. Someone who's a dj needs to have that name as a tribute to Jay. 😂
