Mate you’ve got some absolutely top tier gear. It’s nice to see that you started from humble beginnings with the MPC500 😂

this is so badass man ! love the part you included about your grandparents shop .

"and a spare S900 for when my other one dies" sheeeeesh

that has to be one of the finest studio spaces ive ever seen. such an amazing collection of gear, all those records and not a cable in sight.. you are living the dream.

I am pleased to declare that, because of youngin's like you, Hip Hop has a beautiful future. And ya don't stop!✊

I'm from Philadelphia in the US, and I'm always amazed at how far Hip Hop has reached all over the world. @MAARTIN keep doing what you are doing bruh!!!!!

This is one of the best videos ive ever seen man! love all the stories you have with all these records you have and all the legends you met !

Damn dude, your room is Hip Hop to the fullest. I love it. Also went to your soundcloud to peep your beats. Bro, you got it. Shit is absolutely phenomenal. Much love from germany !

INI center of attention, or the life I live, is one of the best/favourites albums... the one with the most interesting story! 💕

In the late 80s, my pops had the same technics turntable and Equalizer when I was a kid. Having so many memories rush back to me right now.

This is exactly what I'm trying to do with my music and channel. Thank you for the inspiration and your time.

I like the studio and way he keeps his vinyl...I used to be able to control the organization and then thousands later,I just lost track...I love my samplers as well...

So now we now where you got your love for music, from your grandparents and their shop. You have a dope studio bro with some classic AKAI gear. Keep up the good work man can't wait for more videos. All the best

It's people like you who keep hiphop alive

Love your taste in vinyl. I have a lot of what you have. Real quality vibes. Thanks

6:10 this is amazing man! That’s so dope dude! That picture on its own I wouldn’t blame you to frame if it, even if it had no relevant meaning but it being your grandfathers in a golden time of music is just more incredible!

One of the records you still have to listen to has the 93 til infinity sample. A bucket list record for me.

🤣🤣 love that large pro reference. One of my fav songs too

This is hip-hop sample heaven! Dope room and dope video :)

So wonderful to see someone who actually gets it!!!your dedication is unmatched congratulations guy!!👏👏👏👏🤩🤩

That Blue Mitchell album and the Quincy 'Dollars' .... Danm!!! Nobody knows those albums.

The breakdown is awesome. You have accumulated some sweet pieces

incredible that you started 2009 just to walk all the way back into time to bring back the golden age sound! i´ve witnessed all these year and the machines - respect - phenomenal nostalgic journey through time!!

Finally the highly anticipated video and you did a great job, not braggy just straight up talking about everything in your studio.Big up Maartn!!!

Respect! I miss my fully loaded MPC60II had the scsi upgrade and 3.10 software. You don't lie when you say you can't make a bad beat on it. Now you got me looking on Reverb to see if I can get one again.

It's crazy that you have a physical copy of Centre of Attention by InI, that's probably within the top 10 hiphop records of all time, and it never even officially released!

heavy equipment and the best this is timeless and the best ever made ...making music on the MPC studio now#

I love the peace Jeru because I met him and at my dads record shop and got a signed record sleeve. His a dope guy

Nice studio my dude. You got lots of classic gear and prime vinyl. (I dig the Damu The Fudgemunk slipmat, BTW.) Respect my G.👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

Osibisa( Oh-see-ba-sah) is African /Jazz fusion really good music. I'm glad to see you listen to any and everything. The Album with the flying elephants (Roger Dean) inspired my artwork and buying his books. Thanks for the idea for the record shelves(Ikea). My Daughters friend owns an apartment complex and someone left a sh*t load of albums.

Man you really did make an episode sorta like what we were talking about, this is so dope. I can't believe you had that brothers of the mind stop scheming 12 inch. I love the beatminerz remix they had. Your record collection and gears puts mine to shame lol, I need to get back to the beats. I need that Titanic break 😂

Great record collection! I'm a hip hop collector from the Netherlands and thought I had much but you, for sure, have more!

Center Of Attention in the thumbnail 🔥

Such a dope video. Hiphop Nostalgia!!

That Is a great studio and Record collection as well. If anyone Is wondering what the Single Is on the Wall at 7:06. It Is Paul Anka - Adam And Eve ABC Paramount Records cat# 10,082, This was the B-Side of His Number One In the UK and America In 1960 of Puppy Love. Missing It's Picture Sleeve, I'm guessing It was the First single ordered In the Shop that Is why You kept It.

That Billy Cobham - Crosswinds record you pulled out at 8:54 is really good, has the Souls of Mischief - 93' Till Infinity sample on it (Heather). Diggin your beats man!

I dig you taste, man! After watching a video of Dilla's friends go through his record collection in storage and pulling up a bunch of Weather Report, I got intrigued and also started buying everything of theirs I could find. Doing the same with Osibisa as well! Thanks for that Larry Page recommendation. Crazy record! And cus none of my friends care/know who he is, I figure I'd share this story here: I got to meet Masta Ace and get a record signed. Really cool moment to tell him how awesome his work is.

Such great taste in music! that sampler collection is amazing!

I started making beats in 2010, since your mpc 500 vids showed me that it's possible the get a affordable start. Now I'm rocking 2kxl and and E-mu rack samplers everday enjoying it. Thank you and big up!

Maartn that´s very personal space you have ! love it !

Dope vintage Hip Hop Set Up

Good job man. high. Hiphop alive. props for mozambique

Loved when you spoke of your families shop! Much respect.

All this old-school gear and i'm here sitting with my SP404 lol, hoping to amass a similar collection one day tho

27 people who disliked this video only listen to 128kps KZfaq rips.

Nice equipment and record collection. I love that you keep it clean and organize. Definitely need to try and organize my get up. Much love.

good job displaying the lonnie liston smith album :) much love from Brabant

You're like a younger version of me overseas. I grew up skateboarding and sampling/listening to the same jazz and hip hop records as you.

We both started with the MPC 500 but I use Maschine MK2 now

LOL @ the MPC60 being a cash register. Also props to that lady for walking up to what’s she thought was a stick up kid! That’s gangsta hahaha 😂

Thanks for the tour. And, especially, thanks for keeping it simple and direct. Peace!

Dope e's hat, I'm rocking my OG accels right now! Your studio is goals tho forreal

+ 1 for weather report. Same I buy anything I see from them.

8:13 down here is some foreign hip hop, like hip hop from my country 😝😂

Sweet gear and setup! Getting inspired…

That’s a pretty nice record collection. I got about the same amount of records. Been collecting them for 20 years. I always listened to them for samples with portable record player. I always tell my self one day I’m gonna make a song...lol which brings me to my next comments, I like that your using vintage gear instead of the new stuff. I really like the MPC60-2.

this was so cool man, love it

Your music studio is Heaven. 👍👍👍😎🎹🎛

that fun story 😂😂 btw I love the sunshine through window & 13:18 😂😂what😂😂

Wowzerz! This is Amazing and very inspirational. Glad I cam across your channel!

largo pro guest appearance at 2:50 😁

big love

That peter green u pulled out is fire & I think Herbie’s Thrust has the drums for Stakes Is High

Wow remember watching your vids years ago!! Nice set up mate glad you're keeping that boom bap alive! Love from UK!!

love, man. You're such an inspiration for everyone. Thanks for sharing

The place you live at is so BELGIAN love it

Haha, so dope that many of us are very far apart geographically, yet we're all on the same page as far as hip hop.

Dope room! Loved the photos of the old family owned shop.

Nice video man ! Really enjoyed the tour... thanks for sharing ...... super dope vid 🔥🔥🔥

Your studio is very clean and dope! Analog gear is the best to work with. Been watching all your videos lately. Dope work!

Studio of my dream. Great stuff!

Yoooo, my buddy had a MPC Cake made for his birthday and everybody thought he was in Retail Work and just really loved his job!!! 😂

Bro you have a 🔥 studio! Mad humble even though you're pushing serious gear and great records. Thanks for the awesome video which gives us listener's and fellow artists a greater insight into what you work with. Keep up the great work as it's felt for def. Respect from the UK. 👊🏻

2:43 haha,,,you're the man bro!!!!

First video of yours I’ve seen, subbed and clicked the bell. This is soo coooooooooool!!!!!

Love the shout to Large Professor 2:46. Respect the architects.

sick set-up and vinyls. I have a bunch of those cuts. Whirlwind through cities...such a great track!! peace from Portland, OR

Great stuff and a passionate crusader for Hip Hop! Even an old man like me gets sucked in!

Wow just found your video randomly. Nice collection and I can feel your passion for jazz records. I too have a lot of the Klemmer stuff, CTI, Mainstream, ECM, Enja, Weather Report, Hancock, etc. Been at it since about 1987 when I bought Ryuichi Sakamoto's 1000 Knives on import. The Jasper Van't Hof stuff is real nice... got a few library records from Brull, well it goes on and on... you have way more records than me though... think I'm at about 600-700.. I bought an Akai MPC Live with the purpose of incorporating it with my piano (Yamaha C3x grand) and rhodes/moog/Arp/Oberheim gear... really love your vibe on this and know what you mean about not meaning to be a braggy thing because I feel I have just bragged about having a load of gear in this comment... ;)

Cool gear!

Sweet setup!!!

Lonnie Liston Smith... Dude!!! Expansions, Great choice for sampling!

Much respect for you mate, you are amazing!

Great Video! I saw Jasper a few Times live in the 90th, heś a GREAT Bandleader.Sweet smoke Just a poke is a Fantastic record also the Weather Report Albums. You got Great gear and a fine record collection . I enjoyed watching✊🏼🙏🏾

Wooow what a collection ! really dope studio man

WOW!!! #Respect! I want it all!!

so sick

This video just popped up in my suggested. Dope studio! Dope beats!! It makes me happy seeing records own in videos. Validates my music tastes. Haha! Great work.

Need to hear some of your reggae beats!

Jeez I thought I had a good grasp of underground 90s hiphop , but I hadn't heard of half the artists you mentioned...this was a really interesting video, thoroughly enjoyed it!

Dope studio. Love the gear and vibe my g.

I just saw The D.O.C " The Formula" vinyl in the background. Great song!

I make house but I'm glad these days are done. I never wanna waste my time programming an Akai Sampler or mess with a Yamaha, Mackie mixer again! I got my nice iMac and Ableton now. Instead of doing what took me 3hrs with this hardware in the 90s I can do in three clicks in Ableton. Warmth shsss there just too many plugins out there that make up for that. I appreciate the art and the craft behind it from back in the day but I'm just able to pump out too many more quality productions these days due to technology.

great set up bro, love your beat projects man

Damn man really an inspirational space... MAARTN, 1 quick question for you - what did you use again to hang records on your walls? They look super dope, looking to spice up my studio space.

Love the studio! Also the new one! Where did you get those vinyl wall display sleeves from..?

Yaaaaaay ! Love it ! And I wanna say that your setup is awesome! The video was so enjoyable to watch! Keep it up!
