I figured listening to as much underground and low budget music would give me a little better inspiration after failing a few times at making a highly complex beat.
Is an old song from an artist i know pretty much nothing about. I saw the video on a website a long time ago and really liked the trumpet and jazz theme. Thats the only song i’ve ever heard by him and can’t really find anything else. But the drumming is simple and repetitive and there isnt a large bassline but it still makes for a really interesting beat
Teddy Faley is a maryland rapper who i dont think has made it passed the youtube/myspace scene. He’s a friend of a member of Rosetta Stoned (another maryland/D.C rap group) who i know a member of. The song is pretty simple again with simple drumming and a synth.
I’m still thinking of trying to get someones’ vocals recorded for a piece and maybe working more with samples and the EA equipment in the lab when i get more free time
