KM said in an interview that a lot of their drum sounds were recorded on a mobile phone, sounds of them hitting decaying tree logs with a stick to get a natural lo-fi snare sound.escapes wrote:This why the old boom bap 90s hip hop sounds so good !

Kryptic Minds seem to get it just right they that got that dirty organic yet clean sound.
Spot on, which brings us back to the formula;Ldizzy wrote:no dude... some 90s hip hop sounded like shit...
the one u hear was either mixed in million dollar studios or crafted by VERY crafty people... and the beatmakers we all praise were tight on so many levels...
just type mpc 60 old school rap beat on utube and tell me that shit is dope...
I know this was written months ago, but really??? If some unknowns presented the same tunes i'd say good fucking job.. lolPERCEPT wrote:Lets be honest if Coki or Jakes were unknown and came in here later on today, we'd probably all be saying sweet tracks but you need to work on your mixdown a lot. But they're both two of my favourite artists, go figure.
Something that is sucked clean of all emotion and feeling. A grey slab of production.Ldizzy wrote:haha totally agree!!!
whats the result for
amazing production + shit tune? most radio pop releases??
It does raise a valid point TBH - if some raw tune that was amazing got posted in the Dubs board, no matter how amazing it was there would still be comments along the line of improving their mixdown.joegrizzly wrote:I know this was written months ago, but really???

they also used 12 bit samplers a lot like the akai 900 or more likely an MPC 60escapes wrote:This why the old boom bap 90s hip hop sounds so good ! All analog hardware and vinyl ! Keep it raw, nun of that sampling mp3s !
I think I disagree... In my experience people rarely mention the mixdown unless I explicitly ask for tips, and my mixdowns aren't usually that great.wub wrote:It does raise a valid point TBH - if some raw tune that was amazing got posted in the Dubs board, no matter how amazing it was there would still be comments along the line of improving their mixdown.

well, you need a tape machine lolhhans wrote:Really interesting thread. As someone who knows almost nothing about tape, how does one go about "running something through a tape"? Like what equipment do I need/how exactly do I do it? ...etc.

You record it to tape, then you record it back on to the computerhhans wrote:I figured as much, but what is the actual process?skimpi wrote:

I should've known I'd have to play 20 questions with you guys. What specific gear would I need? Brand and model names would be great.hudson wrote: You record it to tape, then you record it back on to the computer
No, you should have asked "what brand and model of tape machine would I need to do this" instead of "what is the process?". They're two completely different questions.hhans wrote:I should've known I'd have to play 20 questions with you guys. What specific gear would I need?
