im new at beat making (like a month and a half since i started) and usually, i keep kicks and claps quantized but leave about half of my hi hats unquantized

@@jadenharris1746 I hear that, I find its usually best to have a mix of certain parts of your beat quantized and others not quantized. What style of beat do you typically make (trap, lofi, etc)?

@@NavieD for the most part, ive been making trap beats

@@jadenharris1746 gotcha, you plannin on posting your stuff on KZfaq? I saw your page doesn't have any of your tunes up on there

Thank you my friend 👌🏽

Hmm thanks for the heads up, I didn't know my voice was that low in comparison. Maybe I will boost it up some more

100%. That contrast between being on-time and off-time is what makes it interesting. Which is why I don't subscribe to the whole "everything unquantized" idea. If everything is off-time, it just ruins any sense of rhythm. Also, whats your favorite Death Grips tune?

@@NavieD When its death grips alone, 80808 is my jam. When its mashups, Beware the Voyager, by sewerslvt.

@@EdgieAlias ahh im a bubbles buried in this jungle type of guy

I hear you, I think there's a time and place to go really crazy and very unquantized and there are times when going very quantized works. But I find there are producers who may be a bit too binary and think it's an all or nothing deal and the rhythm of their music suffers from being too loose or too stiff. I think having both quantized and unquantized components in music is probably the best way to approach it from a basic entry level point of view. Do you record all of your instruments live or do you program them in by hand as well?

@@NavieD MPD or keys for drums and synths/keys. Sometimes I record percussive samples but not so often. Voice and guitar have to be recorded live because... They're live! :D

@@NicStride ahhh gotcha, did you start playing guitar before you started producing or the other way around?

@@NavieD Been playing guitar for a lot longer. :) Actually have a guitar degree, but still tryna get decent enough at songwriting and production to where I can put cool guitar stuff in and not detract from the music.

@@NicStride what the, I didn't know you could get a degree in a specific instrument. Interesting

Hey boss, I did a video on that kzfaq.info/get/bejne/apqpgs-VlrjSg5c.html

Yeeeussss

Sorry dude, this was early on when I had a harder time making videos

Hahah fair enough man! Everyone has their styles that they prefer
