Besides music iykyk how much I love fighting games. I was invited to attend as an exhibitor at EVO Las Vegas this past weekend and I also wanted to compete so I’ve kinda ducked off and trained for a few months to make this happen. Got to meet & fight the legend Justin Wong (took a round off of him in Tekken šŸ’ŖšŸæ) and witness the largest and probably the last MVC2 tournament on the EVO main stage. Played some of the upcoming Marvel Tokon and Invincible Vs— Amazing experience! I’ll never miss a year of EVO again šŸ˜‚

Excited for this! This one will be special šŸš€First show in a while and with all of the homies. @tvkii @pres.morris @cor_don_ @naj_ahead @yaboypax @matt.e.j @jteaa__ @beatsbysolace 20 year anniversary for the Sp-404 brought to you by @rolandglobal @serato @flipabeatclub @beatcinema @therioroomdtla On another note- Admittedly I’ve never really used the SP much. I always been a software guy. I’ve used a 202 & 303 briefly through the years but the workflow was always a little complicated for me but I recently got a sp404 mk2 a few weeks ago and I’ve been learning so much and incorporating into my workflow. I think my favorite feature is the looper- I love sketching ideas and assigning it to pads. Here’s my first few tracks i was able to make solely on the 404.

A online jam with my friend from Xiaohongshu @anyu_nu super talented dummer, please check out his page and music. This is apart of his series called ā€œNeitizen Jamā€ and the song is called Dream State.

Dilla is so engrained within the beat community (I’d say the entire music industry imo) it’s hard not to make beats and not think about him. I think about how deceptively complex his beats could be; like how his kicks would constantly change pattern or he would sneak in extra chop of a sample in something you thought was a loop. You never really think about these things until you tried them yourself and it’s not easy! Happy Dilla Day, also Happy Nujabes day too.

**Re-upload** // More impromptu beats for your feed… Someone recently asked me how to break out of a 4-bar loop—here’s an example: the riff, bass line and drums are only 2 bars. All it takes is one element and let it evolve. In this case, it’s a shifting chord progression/lead, but you can apply this to anything—your bassline, a riff, or even percussion. Even if it’s just 1-2 bars, as long as something is changing rhythmically or harmonically, it can transform a loop into a song. This goes for samples too. #ableton #beats #musicproducer #musician
