Flying Lotus Documentary - "Fly First"

A new short documentary on Flying Lotus just dropped. Pretty cool, laid back guy and a decent documentary. I wish they would have featured more of what he actually does to create his Ableton sets and talk about his creative process. The flick focussed a bit too much on smoking bud and making funny faces for fan pics. I was hoping for more music and beat making philosophical goodness. I give it solid "aiiight!"

Nas - Daughters

Remake of Boi-1da's Best I Ever Had Beat

Cool video featuring Maschine. Remake of Boi-1da's "Best I Ever Had" beat for Drake.

I'm starting a collection of Maschine tutorials

So, as I mentioned in my previous post, I'm going to start making beats again. Well, I never truly started - I just got a taste of it really.

One of my favourite things to do is scour YouTube for tutorials and tips from other Maschine and amateur beat producers. There's some really good ones out there and I am going to start posting the ones that I find useful.

Hit me up if you find any great Maschine or beat production videos in your journey.

Peace!

Diana (10 years old) shows her MPC skills

I just stumbled on this video. I wish I was playing on an MPC at 10 years old. I hope she keeps this up.

I like this girl. Jenna Marbles' VLOG = funny + truth

I subscribed to her channel, you should too. Well, unless you hate laughing.

Let Me Know 2.0 - Raven Sorvino

Watch Me - Dwele

White Girls Rapping.

It's 12:15am and I should be taking going to bed so I am fresh and ready to work my 9-to-5 tomorrow morning, but I can't. I'm trapped watching an endless stream of YouTube videos of new age, white girls rapping. Say what?!?!

It's cool hip-hop continues to bring more people into the culture and all. I'm not going to lie, this is still kind of weird and new to me. However, I can't lie, these ladies are pretty talented. Listening to their flow they would give some of the reigning female hip-hop/pop stars a run for their one million (+) iTunes sales. For real! Look past the crazy schtick or what ever they're saying they represent and listen their flow. SOLID!

Another fallen beat master. Nujabes.

I discovered Nujabes about six months ago surfing around soundcloud.  You need to educate yourself if you haven't heard any of his beats. I have included some of my favourite tunes below.

Unfortunately, Nujabes is no longer with us. However, I know I will be playing his tunes until I'm old and grey. I love hip hop.

Please visit the following links to learn more about him.

Some of my favourites...

Radiohead vs Dave Brubeck - Five Step (mashup by Overdub)

Ronald Jankees... Look this guy up!

I've been watching this guy's videos for a couple years now and this man has crazy keyboard skills and imagination. If you like keyboard tracks, you won't be disappointed.

Here are a few of my favourites:
