    *QUICK TIP* : For samples that have drums in them, use the ADSR to fade in the attack times of the drums a little. Also, use a high pass filter to take the punch or boominess out of the drums in the sample. This will let the drums you add over the top of the samp punch through. Peace!

    Every other sampling video is like "take your sample, chop it, done EZ" no one ever goes into WHY they choose the sounds they do. This is the best video about sampling that I've found. Thank you.

    There's obviously a lot of stigma around the first type of sampling but that's how they used to do it in the 80s/90s. It sounds like a lazy method but it's only lazy if you're not making it a little varied. You can take a 1 or 2 bar loop itself and have it for 8 bars, or mute it every 4th bar, or if there's bass behind it isolate the bass and that's another 4 or 8 bar loop. Anyone who exclusively listens to 90s knows this and it will sound lazy on paper but can sound really good if you do more than simply looping a single sample, such as adding horns every second bar (or any one-shots as they're called in this video). It's probably some bias here because I only sample looks and work around them as the base, but that was a large part of hip-hop and is still a fundamental in my opinion.
    Great video.

    • @mpchead
      @mpchead  5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      To me it's just a matter of taste and how you flip it. Everyone does it differently and as you said you have to be clever with it.

    • @shmiqqy
      @shmiqqy 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @Marvin Bennett Any examples? I've got a lot of early 90s albums I've listened to many times over but all of them are 2-4 bar loop instrumentals.

      @@shmiqqy I know I'm late to the party but you have to remember sample time was trash in the 90's. I had an ASR10 maxed out 16megs and got maybe 3 mins of Stereo and twice mono but more if I sped everything up. But damn... SPs were like 8 seconds. That's why most producers had to get creative with what they sampled and very selective. Check out Pete Rock's interview. He breaks a lot of his technique down.

    This is gold. Thank you for these videos! I often give up on a track because I either think I've been lazy with a loop or too complex chopping and rearranging. Seeing this takes away my anxiety around sampling and making beats.

    Bro ur so nasty🔥, what i like most about ur channel is that its very true to sampling style hip hop and just core kinda 90s hip hop, my biggest osbtacle is really self doubt thinking my style is not good enough since I dont have too much instrumental talent besides fingerdrumming. But your work inspires me to keep going and explore my own style
