The coolest thing that i can say is that I relate to Dilla's silly story of his parents leaving the stereo on in order for him to sleep. When I was a baby, my parents would do the same thing because i'd be scared to sleep if I didn't have constant music playing during the night. Thats where my love for music came from ❤🎉

I don't think people doing loose drums is necessarily copying Dilla, I started out with quontised beats because of the software drum machine emulation kept everything on grid. Whe I first started making Hiphop in 2006 (Ironically the same year Dilla died) I thought beats was supposed to be quontised and was going through My beats midi making every line up to the grid however it sounded worse, same for melody. Thats why over time I stopped keeping drums and other elements on grid, I was not copying Dilla however His sound obviously influenced My perception of what Hiphop should sound like to sound good.

Its not copying imo either because Its like at the end of the day someone has ALWAYS done at least one thing before you did it doesn’t mean you weren’t creative just because just means they beat you to the idea thats all, sometimes when i sample music or if im tapping out some drums on whatever im using to produce when they’re quantized sometimes they become very stiff or repetitive or they’re too perfect if that makes sense Dilla taught me that human feel and crazy swing cant always come from a machine

you bring up a good point. i guess it would be inaccurate to say dilla was the one who started doing loose drums. messing with time has been individually discovered by many other musicians, elvin jones comes to mind. and probably a lot of producers shift timing of elements in their beats to match the specific style they're aiming for.

Thank you for doing this video. It was another very informative video and I am learning a lot from you. In addition to watching the video you did on the fundamentals of TDR Nova, which I thought was great, I then subscribed to your channel only to realize that a lot of your other videos were more involved than I wanted to go. I do not operate a DAW and I don't create or produce music. I am simple an audiophile who wants my audio system to sound the best it can. The same is true for my video. I am currently using the app, Equalizer APO, on a windows PC that I am using a media server. In addition, I have TDR Nova and all of there other free plugins. I am trying to learn how to use the TDR plugins to get the desired output.

I wanna say I appreciate the format a lot. I have a digital piano now (but due to logistics reasons won't have it at my home until maybe September) and am slowly becoming less terrified of music theory. 😅 I feel like most people know some fundamentals and don't realize there are people who don't even know that so even when people talk about beginner stuff it's like a foreign language to me. Like when your math teacher doesn't comprehend what it's like to learn these math stuff for the first time and thinks if he can do the test in half the time then the students should be able to do it in the alloted time. 😅 Seeing what your hand is doing but also seeing the animated keyboard with the letters coming up and also the sheet music format - both in dynamic form and just written out fully - that's so cool. I can practise both playing and understanding. Just sad I'll have to wait until September probably.

aw man :( sad you won't have they keyboard for a while. happy that the format helps you understand what is being played! i love the math analogy lol... i suck at math but love music theory. although it was a very slow rate of learning at the beginning. i think once i started to get familiar with key signatures and the number system, things got easier.
