OFFICIAL BEATMAKING / PRODUCTION THREAD Vol. New NT

Not really I've been trying to though people just haven't discovered none of my work yet so I thought I might give niketalk a try a friend who use niketalk on a daily basis told me about coming onto niketalk and network so this is my attempt to do so.

i think we could do some damage together...

check out some of my work and let me know if you feel the same way...





 
joint i did this morning. just a loop


^ Love your SoundCloud avatar, classic.

I posted this is another thread, but I figured it was also relevant to show to my producers here as well. I just released my first self-produced EP via www.djbooth.net this past Wednesday, and I'd love to have you guys check it out, perhaps to give me your feedback from a production standpoint.

It's available for stream/download here:

From what I understand (and having tried a demo of it), Ableton Live is a loop-based production tool, similar to Acid Pro, and has a lot of features that make beat-matching and sampling simple.
Everyone who talks to me about Logic always says that it has a very steep learning curve, but is ridiculously-full featured. I'd say in terms of simplicity, Ableton is moreso, but Logic will allow you room for growth as you develop your skills and knowledge of production. Plus, Logic Pro is a good second step after GarageBand, given that they're both compatible as Apple-developed programs.
Please correct me if I'm wrong about any of the above, since I don't use either - this is just what I've heard from people who actually use these programs.
Edit: As a new producer, since we're talking software, I say start with something free, i.e. Garageband if you're already using a Mac, or Reaper if you're on Windows. Save your money until you know what it is that you're looking for and what you want it to do - a lot of us started out on demo versions and things like that before we built out our setups.
Just hopped in this thread for the first time as an aspiring producer/DJ. I appreciate this advice.
 
^ Lol, you're welcome. I like all of the building and learning that's taking place here...

 I wanna say 90's influenced with some east coast flavor. Overall great EP

Haven't had the chance to play this on some real speakers yet, just on the laptop, but I don't hear anything too different on the beat that would throw it off. Keep it up fam. 

edit: Did you sample the same beat for "The old you" and "entroduction"

Frank, thanks so much for the spin, I really appreciate it....

And yes, it's the same Black Eyed Peas sample for both songs, just pitched different...you're the ONLY person that has caught that so far.
