Wanna give them a big shout out. I was looking for a screen protector for the Mpc sample and hit a home run! I’m all set to travel with it now. Give him a follow he has a lot of new and great things on the horizon. 💎
Just a little fun fact! Picked this up from Beverly records back in the day, the owner didn’t want to sell it to me because of the tonearm, a sme series 3, but he caved in, and the rest was literally history!
The connectivity plus portability.
You can USB-C the MPC sample to your computer> go to the audio input for whatever DAW you use> choose the MPC sample as your input device
Now you can track out everything you play or perform on the MPC sample on an audio track in your DAW! ☝🏽💥
At a time, in #Chicago, House was King. 👑🏠
If you went to a party or turned on the radio, it was going to be House, soul, and R&B music. Hip Hop didn't just take a backseat; it was actively pushed "way below the line" of what was happening every day.
But that pressure created diamonds. @DugInf talks about being a B-boy from freshman year, aggressively canvassing neighborhoods to battle because the culture had to grow organically without radio support.

"If you can only DJ on a controller, you can only dribble to the right." 🏀🎧
On this week's short, we’re talking versatility. @DugInf breaks down why modern convenience (waveforms, sync buttons) is great for accessibility, but dangerous for skill.
If you walk into a venue and there are only turntables, can you still rock the crowd? To really earn the title of DJ, you have to "learn it all."
👇 Digital or Vinyl: Do you think you need to know both to be a "real" DJ?

Did you know the Chicago World’s Fair premiered more than just architecture? 🎡🛼
We’re taking a deep dive into Chicago history on the latest Vinyl2Viral short. It turns out the roots of the city's obsession with roller skating (and the music that came with it) go all the way back to the "White City" Exposition.
And the story behind the name "White City"? It’s not just the limestone buildings. Back then, skate wheels were made of cement 🧱. Rinks put down white powder in the corners just so skaters could turn—leaving everyone covered in white dust by the end of the night. 🤯
From Catholic school gyms to O Block, the history of skating is the history of Chicago music. @DugInf is the Professor!

"We’re losing too many people too young." 🛑💔
It’s a conversation that doesn’t happen enough: Healthcare in Hip Hop. On this week's short, we dive deep into the reality of being an independent artist without a safety net. From the need for a Hip Hop Union to the importance of preventative care, we’re echoing the calls made by artists like @ChanceTheRapper . 🎤🏥
It’s not just about the music; it’s about making sure the people making the music are taken care of. Thank you @DugInf for elevating this much-needed conversation to the mainstream.
