How do they do it ?

[EMPORIO]

Which beats are like how do they do what they do ? Like certain beats sound way easier to make then others. Like alot of timbo beats just sound too complicated for sound analyzation or at least compared to other beats.

Anyway name a few beats that make you think how do they do it ?

Just Blaze - Show me what you got.

I wouldn't say its too complicated but there are so many instruments and its engineered so refinely you kind of get lost as too how he does it.

Experience and practice

That's obvious I wasn't asking how hard it is or how can I do it I was just wondering what beats sound like they took some time and work and a experienced mindset to create.

Truth be told it all in the ear...think of it as djing on another plain...musical genius helps, but its the vibe that's the source of creativity...

If you heard the original music sampled(3 different songs), you wouldn't be so amazed at the refinment of that particular song(Show me what you got).

i.e "crazy in love"...i was listening to an ole' rnb review on pbs and low and behold this group original bridge was that whole trak

yeah alot of the beats that jay-z uses are extremely easy to make. that show me what you got is real easy. its a sample off of a shaft album with a beat, bass player, and only two or three instruments. the wah guitar and piano. only difference in that one is just blaze is playin the drums live and i think the bass is live.

i want to take a stab at remakin that one, but i cant get my hands on the original.

sometimes the tracks that sound really complex aren't, its just the samples that sound complex

Im not too amazed by the complexity of the beat... what wow's me is the sound shaping of instruments in a beat. Most of J.R. Rotem, Tim and Doc Dre's stuff is what keeps me like... "damm.. how did they make that frikkin (insert instrument) sound like that!!!"

^^ For me it's Storches older work, especially Chronic 2001.

Well in that case none for me when i 1st started every track i heard with more than 3 instruments were like that but now i can sit down and listen to just about any track and justbreak it down. True some harder than other's but nothing that i've really been stumped on

More than than 1 one to skin a cat so even though it may not have been what they did 100% i'd atleast have the same energy and vibe
