This Salvia dude is a kid, he doesn't know anything about Hip hop. Hip hop is so commercial now that the whole world knows about it now. Are you trying to discrete the U.S now because Timbaland switched his style and he's using more arpegiators? I notice this kid has been blasting Timbaland alot in this forum and coming up with his weird theories about Music and Math, Synths and what not.

Timbaland doesnt make his own sounds.....he uses sounds that he hears. His latest efforts stem from a lot of dance that is going on in Europe. So look for dance/techno/trance vst's and you should be in business.

It really is amazing how someone like Timbaland has made his entire career out of sampling other people and mixing and matching sounds. However, his albums still do sound better that everyone elses. I think what makes him good is he knows what sounds kool and is able to identify it, a skill that most trying to make it dont posess. Thats all music is really, knowing what sounds good and what works.

Haha, its funny that you should mention that cos I dare say that Timbaland uses those cheap guitars in 'Scream,' they sound pretty cheap in that song.
You sound so much like a hater. On your profile, you sound like a disgruntled old man in your bio. Do you think your music is better than Timbaland's or something? May be you want some press. I will give you press then. Put this guy on blast.

Are you happy now?
Hip hop has come a long way. It doesn't stay the same. It keeps evolving. Hip hop itself started with Turntables and a mic. It was based on samples from Breakbeats, Soul, Blues, Jazz, Rock, Reggae and a lot more. Hip hop takes a little of every music, combines them and come out with something new and fresh. It keeps changing too because it can't be the same thing all the time. That is boring. New styles keep coming out of it in order for it to be fresh everytime. I'm not talking about the ones you see on MTV nowadays. I know you watch MTV in Australia. I'm talking about this. Compare this to what you see on T.V and hear on the radio now, you will see the difference. It has come a long way and keeps changing.
