shoutout to the individuals that make this show, it's not often you find such a great idea so well executed with amazingly talented artists and such a natural vibe. It's dope being able to see how each artist crafts their sound.
spr95que I disagree. Dre has ghost producers and he gets credit from other's work, the main ones who behind those fat tracks getting their hands dirty and goes to work from sampling, MPC, KEYBOARD etc. Hmmm! *Scott Storch, Mel , Glove Taylor, Daz, DJ Quick, DJ Yells and few others. Dre is a Big industrial Producer but, he never sampled, played a keyboard workstation/instrument or work a Mpc in his whole career.
lived down the street from his studio for years, always hoped to catch a glimpse of greatness happening but never could lol. he's def one of the top producers of all time
Mass Appeal y'all been on FIRE lately!Just wanna say thank you and that all of us watching appreciate the work you guys are putting in. Rhythm Roulette is the best thing on TH-cam and really it's better than anything on tv for all of us aspiring producers. One Love! 🙌🏾
Thanks for the idea, 66 years old sitting in my favorite chair and came across your video. I have a sh*t load of vinyl ,old cassettes and cd's, I'm going to put my Maschine to good use.
The first best he scrapped was just a warm up and still better than most songs out there! The real beat was fire from the jump!🔥💥🎵 Hi-Tek a beast from day one... Need to see *Pete Rock* up next please!
nice pick for Hi-tek. Karma is one of my favorite beats of all time and that album is by Mood is one of the most criminally slept on LPs ever. that was my introduction to Kweli and J Rawls.
+Clark Townsend I got Main Flow from MOOD on two songs on my new album! Drops in 4 weeks! Your right! That Karma beat is one of my fav High Tek beats too
I love the millions of combinations you can come up with in producing beats. I myself use fruityloops and various chor progressions it has. I need to get a beat pad still. Hi Tek is such an amazing producer. Even watching this video, I felt like I was right in the studio (which looks dope asf BTW). Keep up the amazingly crisp work man!
Time to get tha pen! 🔥 I rewind this just to vibe out all real producers do that I'm guilty too the track just hits you and you vibe nothing wrong wit that tek we get it bro! Let get dr. Dre next!! Come on mass appeal we waiting!!!
hi-tek is suuper underrated the dude almost single handily held down rawkus like mannie did cash money or rza did wu tang and no one really talks about it... much respect
When he started walking around the studio after he put the sequence together, I do that shit everytime I feel a joint I put together too. Shit was funny as hell !
Had a friend that knew him. I remember the lab I on ravine and central. Got to watch him sit in the corner and mess with beats. Never said a word. Was way was into it!!! Dope
Rhythm Roulette list: RZA, Kno, Lib, Marcus D, DOOM (lol jokin), AraabMuzik, Gramatik, DJ Ant of Atmosphere, Stoupe, L'Orange, Deacon the Villain, Jake One, DJ Khalil, Mr. Porter, Alchemist (highly requested). Get on it, MassAppeal.
Twice in a lifetime off the Black Star album.. so many changeups in that beat the shit is ridiculous. Loved his first solo album so many bangers. Peace Tek
4:53 Stuck in my head after the first time I've heard it - sound so familiar... . That's why he's one of my favorite Hip Hop musicians - he creates one of a kind sound.
SO UNIMPRESSED when I thought he was done - I was thinking "Even I know when I'm forcing it...that's a loop I would have maybe saved, but never did anything with." Suddenly, he was like "Naw...I'm starting over." I was like oh, wait...then he came up with that real ish - I knew immediately, and so did he - you could see his head nodding, and that "real sly crook grin" (MF DOOM) creep over his face, like "Oh, I got one now!". BIG RESPECT to Hi Tek for admitting his first ish was wack, and then coming through with a banger!!!!! That's what makes him a great producer, and me a hobbyist.
I have that same album by spirit and I used the same sample break he used,but what in the world he flipped the hell out of it. Thats craaaaazy his ear for sound is dope.
specifically the bells at 1:31 were something I wanted to find and was able to because your the plug. I had already found the album, after referencing the video to see it, but was listening all the way through it until I saw your comment 2 songs in lmao0 thx m8, 3 years later. someone else is probs going to benefit from this again too. btw 2020 boutta be wildin homie when i drop this song using that whole ass song sampled hella
The bar has been raised very high by grand master Nottz, but I was waiting to see this for a LONG ass time! Almost everybody Dilla fkt with is a real MF, dude recognized real shit.
Everybody wants Premier and Alchemist on RR, but this man right here is up there too.
Chris Nichols who tf said that
Mstry Chessboxn you Buggin. He is definitely up there
Oh fasho!! Man is a Legend!! Idk if they had Grap Luva on here but I wanna see my man Grap!!
Yes, indeed. Re: Respiration
@@WhosmanzYTGrap is so underrated. One of my favorites.
It's nice to see Hi-Tek on this because I've always felt that he's under-rated. That final beat is HEAT!
Agreed
Yup!
Yap totally agreed!
yeah he makes some dope vibe beats !!!!! is this the guy who mixing for die antworod tho ?
naw there dj is made up

+boy jenus neutronoid truth, best channel on yt
Straight up!! I hope we get more!
1 of my fav beatmakers. When he scrapped the 1st beat I was like what is he doing?! But the 2nd beat was even harder. Skills!
+Carl Mac Both dem jawns was MEAN man--MEEEEAN!!!
The snare that sounds like a clap he uses on most of his beats is majestic i.e. Reflection Eternal "The Blast"
Nobody is gonna say so I'll say it Hi-Tek needs to be mentioned with the Dillas, Nujabes, Dr. Dre, Premo, Pete Rock, RZA etc.
Tek has a production deal with AFTERMATH!
+telj1 Not necessarily. The producers at Aftermath nowadays get their just due
You never lied !!!!
UnadulteratedRAShit Yeen lying

Hi-Tek always been up there with Dilla, Premo, RZA, Dr. Dre, Just Blaze, Kanye, Timbaland, Neptunes, Storch, etc.
Absolutely!!
Child please!
Dj shadow
Facts....
There is only 1 dilla
Hi-Tek is the man & doesn't get enough praise as a great producer. The was one of the best in the series in my opinion!
lived down the street from his studio for years, always hoped to catch a glimpse of greatness happening but never could lol. he's def one of the top producers of all time
BODIED.... even the first beat he scrapped was dope
+Magz FACTS!
+Magz Hi-Tek may have just become my favorite Rhythm Roulette beatmaker.
+Ocean Sage 9th Wonder still holds the "RR" crown in my book!
Ransom Smith I loved 9th Wonder's beat, Hi-Tek just made a little classic.
+Magz Yeah, I dug that joint!
3:38 Beat warming up
3:49 Beat with the scratch! I like this beat 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
4:50 2nd Beat 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
5:07 Masterpiece 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Mass Appeal y'all been on FIRE lately!Just wanna say thank you and that all of us watching appreciate the work you guys are putting in. Rhythm Roulette is the best thing on TH-cam and really it's better than anything on tv for all of us aspiring producers. One Love! 🙌🏾
Man the Rhythm Roulette lineup has been stacked lately. So good.
Also Hi-Tek looks like the halfway point between Jordan Peele and Chamillionaire.
+Sandurz yo....I needed this laugh
Sandurz 😂😂😂
Sandurz and Saigon
Sandurz 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂💀
Sandurz damn youre so lame smh
One of my favorite producers, definitely underrated!
+Jay Brown agree man. top 5.
That beat from Mood"Karma"! HI-TEK is a LEGEND.
Mass Appeal has been killing it lately with the legends. Yes!
Thanks for the idea, 66 years old sitting in my favorite chair and came across your video. I have a sh*t load of vinyl ,old cassettes and cd's, I'm going to put my Maschine to good use.
His production on that 'Mood' album was some of the best in underground hip hop history....amazing
This makes me want to get an MPC
People always forget how good he is, Like come on Dilla put him as one of the best of all time. DILLA
Kryptonlte you stupid madlib is way sicker than hi-tek not hating on the dude but hi-tek is dope but not as madlib
Mark Valdez one of the best
Not the best
Hi tek is amazing all those awesome black star n talib joints 🔥
@@youalreadyknow8087 cant compare them
@@youalreadyknow8087 Never compared him to madlib bud.
1:14 Tek’s best beat imo and one of the greatest beats in hip hop
The first best he scrapped was just a warm up and still better than most songs out there!
The real beat was fire from the jump!🔥💥🎵 Hi-Tek a beast from day one...
Need to see *Pete Rock* up next please!
The first beat he was working on was fire!
this is one of those beats so nasty you gotta curl your face up when you hear it lol
+Byron Seward hahaha yup
Currently scrunched the fuck up
Resting stank face
Mean Mug Hoodie Face
Bruhhhhhh! My neck!!
Much Respect. He didn't have a entire production team with him. Just a man and his machine, dope......
Hi-Tek is the man... been bumpin his work for a long while now.. not always a "busy' producer, but usually provides quality...
quality over quantity
Train Of Thought album he did with Kweli is my all time favourite hip hop album. It's amazing.
nice pick for Hi-tek. Karma is one of my favorite beats of all time and that album is by Mood is one of the most criminally slept on LPs ever. that was my introduction to Kweli and J Rawls.
+Clark Townsend I got Main Flow from MOOD on two songs on my new album! Drops in 4 weeks! Your right! That Karma beat is one of my fav High Tek beats too
Man! I've seen a lot of these videos, and Hi-Tek impressed me the most. He clearly knows his craft, and is a true Producer.
Elvis was a hero to most but he never meant shit to me
Straight up racist that sucker was simple and plain, Motherfuck him and John Wayne
Elvis wasn't a racist . Love PE and Chuck D but he had no idea of what he was talking about.
He just looked racist. Maybe it was his hairstyle.. idk
@Terry Bacon Elvis wasn't White.
@Terry Bacon Well FACTS are that he was an israeli, therefore not White. How he is regarded by some demographic doesn't change what he is.
Hi-Tek has been one of my all time fav producers. He has a unique style, always really loved the swing of his drums and those choppy bass lines!
I love the millions of combinations you can come up with in producing beats. I myself use fruityloops and various chor progressions it has. I need to get a beat pad still. Hi Tek is such an amazing producer. Even watching this video, I felt like I was right in the studio (which looks dope asf BTW). Keep up the amazingly crisp work man!
This guy made some of the most prolific,dope tracks in hip hop history.Real hip hop heads know.Salute
Know you dope when you have a banger and go "I'm starting over"... and still make a banger... Props
by far the best rhythm roulette episode . NEXT ´´ EASY MO BEE´´ PLEASEEEE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dopeness!!!
best episode. by far. took the drums from the record. took the ghost from the record. true power. no sharing. just all uninhibited fury.
that last beat made me think about 50 Cent The Massacre album so much and The Documentary! Send that shit to 50 or Game!
I keep coming back to these videos man that production style sounds of the 2000 era so hard has that G Unit bang hard
That last beat is fire!
Thank you I can watch this fun at home in Japan. Thanks Internet and TH-cam❗️❗️
Sounds like something Sean Price woulda hopped on.
P!!!
+TheHoundoom Facts!.......
Damn RIP Ruck.
I agree Sean price and prodigy collabo would be nice
RIP P

There's been Legends getting on this show. Get Kev Brown on here.
+tinktwiceman hell yeah
hi-tek is suuper underrated the dude almost single handily held down rawkus like mannie did cash money or rza did wu tang and no one really talks about it... much respect
killed it. most under rated producer of all all time
Tek’s music was the soundtrack to my high school years.
When he started walking around the studio after he put the sequence together, I do that shit everytime I feel a joint I put together too. Shit was funny as hell !
My man Tek....he kept me company during the late nineties and early 2000's
2025 checking in! 🫡👍🏼✌🏼😁💎
Maaaaaannn. Seen this one for the first time today
Had a friend that knew him. I remember the lab I on ravine and central. Got to watch him sit in the corner and mess with beats. Never said a word. Was way was into it!!! Dope
That was beat box Dave Arrps was the owner. We built another studio on Flora st in his garage big up to Dave!!!
@@JrmGrigsby ah the old stomping grounds. I grew up with pace
That 1st beat was cool but that 2nd beat was absolute fire
hi telk is ice cold with it. One of the best ever, textbook with perfect melodies and rhythm
Thumbs up 4 Pete Rock
This series rules! Thanks to y’all that put it together!!!
Thank god he started over cuz that second beat KILLED that first one
+High Flown I think on the first beat , he needed more time to clean it up.I bet if he had a week or so. The best would have been fine.
Both of those beats were all-time classics, to me.
Both were sick
Man, I haven’t seen too many of these yet, but in terms of RESULTS, this is definitely one of my favorites so far 🤷🏼♂️👍🏻👍🏻
One of my fav producers. He inspired my music name "Tech-Omega"
why are his throwaways FLAMES 🔥 🔥 🔥
Rhythm Roulette list: RZA, Kno, Lib, Marcus D, DOOM (lol jokin), AraabMuzik, Gramatik, DJ Ant of Atmosphere, Stoupe, L'Orange, Deacon the Villain, Jake One, DJ Khalil, Mr. Porter, Alchemist (highly requested). Get on it, MassAppeal.
+Brandon Burrel no premo u crazy?
akabuca96 pretty sure i read somewhere that premo doesn't want people to film him when he makes beats
Brandon Burrel never knew that
yeh i was surprised too. you can even try searching it on youtube. you probably won't find a video of Premier making a beat.
+Brandon Burrel Oddisee, Kev Brown, Domino, Dan The Automator, Blockhead, El-P, MF GRIMM, Evidence, 88 Keys...
My favorite rhythm roulette episode.
I was digging the first beat ,but the second one is pure fire🔥 how do they make their drums knock so hard
GS247x Either they are layered breaks from lp’s or the Mpc actual sound.
Compression
Top two fav. producers for me! Hi Tek all day, inspiration, Stay blessed!
Second beat gave me a G-Unit vibe
Jared Davis beg for mercy album
facts
Hell yea
I definitely hear 50 on that
It actually gave me a Rockafella feel
Man I love Hi Teks drum programming his drums are always on point. I want to see Alchemist, and I also want to see Dewaun Porter too
fucking crazy..... this is this best one i seen so far.... they just seem to keep getting better a better..... i smell alchemist
Hi Tek is crazy y’all. Dude is really one of the best to sample.
A LONG TIME FUCKING COMING!!!!
Twice in a lifetime off the Black Star album.. so many changeups in that beat the shit is ridiculous. Loved his first solo album so many bangers. Peace Tek
"I'm start'N over, man" LMAO cocky summbitch!! Salute, my G
4:53 Stuck in my head after the first time I've heard it - sound so familiar... . That's why he's one of my favorite Hip Hop musicians - he creates one of a kind sound.
I haven't even started this Vid and I gave it a thumbs up!!
likewise lol
OMG bwahahaha I thought I was the only one. Dat's whassup y'all lol.
The drums on the last beat are just chef’s kiss
This dude is a genius thoses beats are cold
2:37 notice how he licks not only the finger on the vinyl but the finger on the MPC too
3:50
Everybody: That sounds pretty dope
Hi-Tek: NOT DOPE ENOUGH
One of the most under rated of all time in my opinion
I just heard a half an album's worth of sick beats. WTF???
HELL YEAH!! HI-TEK is SOOOOOO dope!! Love this brothas production work, super underated, miss those Rawkus days that was a hip hop label!
first joint was hot but im glad he scrapped it for the second one cos that shit was flames!
yesssirrrrr!!!! I was mad as shit too lmaooo
Swarv 84 naa he needs to keep that first one for himself.
Both of them beats were ill.
SO UNIMPRESSED when I thought he was done - I was thinking "Even I know when I'm forcing it...that's a loop I would have maybe saved, but never did anything with." Suddenly, he was like "Naw...I'm starting over." I was like oh, wait...then he came up with that real ish - I knew immediately, and so did he - you could see his head nodding, and that "real sly crook grin" (MF DOOM) creep over his face, like "Oh, I got one now!". BIG RESPECT to Hi Tek for admitting his first ish was wack, and then coming through with a banger!!!!! That's what makes him a great producer, and me a hobbyist.
Bring the heavy hitters.
Do D.J.Quik
I would love to see that!
This would beeee nice 😁
not really a sampler. more live instrumentation
I don't think Quik would hop on since he's heavy into instrumentation
Quik has actually sampled quite a bit. He adds instrumentation around samples quite a bit as well as a lot of original joints.
I have that same album by spirit and I used the same sample break he used,but what in the world he flipped the hell out of it. Thats craaaaazy his ear for sound is dope.
Dopamine! Love to see Alchemist, Havoc or Dj Muggs on the roulette!
Respect!! J'écoute encore hiteknologie en 2019!! Big up de la France!! Bang bang!!
Honestly, I fw that first beat more then the last one.
If he had just tightened it up a bit more it would've been fine
Been blasting Reflection Eternal lately, was super stoked to see Hi-Tek on here!
Last Beat the Sample is: spirit - love has found a way. thank me later
specifically the bells at 1:31 were something I wanted to find and was able to because your the plug. I had already found the album, after referencing the video to see it, but was listening all the way through it until I saw your comment 2 songs in lmao0
thx m8, 3 years later. someone else is probs going to benefit from this again too.
btw 2020 boutta be wildin homie when i drop this song using that whole ass song sampled hella
@@von... 8 months later I benefited from it 😂
Thank you so much!
this is much better Hi-Tek..congrats!..keep making them dope beats bruh..thanks!
I love this guy... just listen to "2000 seasons", "Memories back" or "too late" ;)
It's Great 2 see Hi Tek... He helped make that 90s NYC underground sound
2:09 PLZ someone make a good beat out of that lol
+Em Dee im saying
+Em Dee What song was it?
+Cortez Hollister i think he could propably use it in the future ^^
+Em Dee Sounds like you could do a "Big Pimpin" remix with that. It had a similar bounce, yet was different enough to make it interesting.
+Nbdy Knws mustve been the Rouders one
Big shout to Hi-Tek. Fellow Cincinnatian! Me and the fellas spent many hours in Everybody’s Records
The bar has been raised very high by grand master Nottz, but I was waiting to see this for a LONG ass time! Almost everybody Dilla fkt with is a real MF, dude recognized real shit.
FAX NO PRINTER
first man to sample some drums on Rhythm Roulette ......thank you Cincinattayyyyyyyyy
this shit was past dope!...y'all showin off wit these appearances
"The 12 Dreams Of....." is a great record. Spirit was a fantastic group. "Mr. Skin" is a real banger. No surprised Hi-Tek dug it!!
No doubt... what song is that at 2:09? Do you know?
@@sedaotieno bro I been hunting that song for 5 years still ain't found it
2:02 song?? Holy shit what a sample
"The Blast" will and FOREVER always be one of my all time favs 🔥🔥😷😷
