    Watching good producers has the same feeling like when I was a kid and I watched good skateboarding. It made you want to go out and skate just as this makes me want to get back in the studio. Always love watching your videos! Keep posting! ✌️

    Love that setup, its crazy how you have one of the greatest samplers standing up in the background the ASR10 which goes for a high price. Yeah man! that MPC 2000XL is hitting hard. Your face does it all, your like damn I'm about to go back. I'm going to subscribe, I love that old school flavor.

    its so much better digging through disks than terrabytes of data on an enormous hard drive. there is a physicality, substance, associated with recording to small hard media. BUT i have had 100mb zip drives fail, the click of death, so i use 250mb drives and media which didn't have that problem

    • @79Glitch
      @79Glitch ปีที่แล้ว +2

      They’re digital, but early lofi digital has its own sound character (8 bit, 12 bit, and 16 bit).
      But most people should know that by “analog”, you’re mostly talking about the a/d converters and the physical,
      outboard nature of old MPC’s. And it’s NOT going to sound the same as a DAW. It’s never too late to go back to the basics!
