Been listening to old kanye production, like GLC, legend, common, etc...

This album is dope as fuck

edit: flight school is another amazing underrated beat.

If ppl went through all of Kanye's production catalogue, youd have to put him near GOAT producer status...
 
after browsing around for a while, i think i will be getting an MPD18 along with a yamaha PSR e233 keyboard instead of the m-audio keyrig/studio. browsing on their forums, it seems like the virtual instrument application isnt supported on windows 7 64 bit and their support doesnt wanna hear shit about it.

i emailed both akai and yamaha some questions and once they get back to me, these 2 along with FL studio are as good as bought. so excite

FL Studio with an mpd here. I tried learning abelton but was already a bit invested into FL. Same with Reason.

i think i will be going the same route -- FL Studio + MPD. including a keyboard, everything comes out a little under $500, which is still a lot less than the maschine ive been lusting for the past few months.

There are plenty of Youtube training vids for each software or hardware. I use FLStudio, LogicPro and Music Generator for the PSone. I use a HORI arcade stick as the MIDI on FLStudio.

do you have a pic of your setup? the arcade stick sounds...AWESOME lol

Yeah, and good luck! I've been mighty tempted to get into back into production myself. I've been writing/composing for a while now, and I'm figuring that it's about time to really get it done. My DAW IQ is such shit though.

do it man! it just seems like so much fun, despite the crazy learning curve ahead.
 
Common's Blue Sky is a really great track. Not crazy about the entire album, but that song is BALLA BALLA as hell.

Best Kanye track in years, actually.

rhyming on beat is overrated man! f that shit hahaha. can't wait to hear the revised though and feel better recon. I'm kind of disappointed in that new exquire tape

Yeah but that Dza tape was on point. Also Killer Tofu has to be in my top 25 favorite songs of the year nevertheless lol.

What's he need a label for?

I couldn't help but see the trilogy as a nostalgia/ultra type deal where it's released free--and in the trilogy's case, sectioned chunks to build/maintain buzz throughout the year--with it getting a major label rerelease with an extra track or two per disc after once the money giving audience is there. He has to have signed some papers by now, with Drake's co-sign, and the kind of following he's built up in just this year alone.

if you see me in a fight with a bear, don't help me fool, help the bear!
Easy to forget the Boss can still lay it down with all the shit he puts onto the radio. Not saying he killed it or anything...but this is much better than whatever song they play every 5 minutes about him needing a queen or something.

Ross is one of the better mainstream artist out there right now imo..

He kills a lot of stuff..

I'll throw your opinion a bone - I have a lot of trouble listening to mainstream stuff now that I've discovered these threads (dating back to number 2). I mean its really tough for some reason.

Whaaaaaaat who went in for 16?! I was dying for more bars.

I missed the pirate leak and haven't heard the track yet.

With which major label is my question.

He's clearly riding with whatever Drake is doing in Toronto.

Labels are obsolete. They're pagers. You don't need em anymore. He's built enough buzz. He can get DJ cosigns. He can get everything he could with his own promo and industry cosigns that could with a label imo. Big label didn't do shit for Yelawolf. Can't see it helping KRIT either. Him being on Def Jam won't sell him 1 extra album or concert ticket considering the following he built up on his own.

The only people they still benefit are uber stars like Jeezy, Yeezy and Weezy. People who just don't want to be bothered by the promo etc. I think Weeknd likes handling that shit.


Also, has it ever been confirmed that "The Weeknd" is just Abel and not a group(producers etc.)?

Fuck 3 Stacks.

In my last issue of Complex, which has a Drake feature, Drizzy talked for a bit about how he came to know The Weeknd, and only referred to (it or him) as just being Abel.
