I wouldn't be surprised if producers did this all the time in the 80s. That's cool.

The Death Wish movies are classic! Herbie Hancok produced the soundtrack of the first movie and Jimmy Page produced the second movie, both are available on wax

This is dope as fuck. I can hear the Public Enemy sampling process of how they threw together so many different sound effects and samples to create beautiful madness. Subbed up

As someone who has a massive vhs 📼 collection and who also makes beats I found this fascinating. I’ve heard about producers like MF DOOM sampling vhs but never seen it done. This was super dope Bro. Mad props.👏🔥💾🔥💾🔥💾🔥🔊🔥📼🔥

@AlexisG73 Жыл бұрын

Thanks for the kind words! VHS tapes are some of my favorite things to sample. There are a bunch of drum lesson tapes out there to snag drums off etc. The hard part can be keeping the old VCRs from eating your tapes 😆

I also thought MF was sampling tape recordings off the television but seeing this process made it all make a lot more sense.
