Hiphop made with the Analog Rytm

Dope. I love the simplicity of that setup. I have never owned an SP and even though I’m mainly ITB these days, part of me wants to pick up a used SP-404 for simple beatmaking on the couch or remixes of projects I make on the computer.

It’s also strange, but I miss the little Boss Micro BR-80 recorder I used for my Digitakt projects. It’s so not designed for electronic music and has loads of features I never used, but the mixes sounded great with almost no tweaking and it’s so tiny. Mixing on the DAW is complex and time consuming process. With the BR-80, it was literally just a matter of making sure the levels were good and making a few tweaks to the mastering algorithm, but mostly a 10 to 15 minute process for recording, mixing, mastering.

For some reason when working with the sp404 (I always use the resample method) I kind of get into a zen-mode where I forget what I’m doing, and make music purely on intuition, it’s hard to explain.

Its a machine thats not suited for making ‘serious’ music, or producing something you planned, because it will always end up like something completely different, in a good or a bad way. Its kind of the anti-digitakt in a way, in that you cant finetune anything. Both are awesome in their own way though.

Love your beats, really nice vibe, really nice sound. And doing all that with an AR, great advertisement for Elektron. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks guys! I feel the DT and AR are kind of hidden gems for hiphop production, I hope more people get on board!

AR2 seems to me (apart from the pads maybe) ideal for hip hop / boom bap. Easy fast sampling & resampling, analogue filters, saturation/drive/comp etc.

Nice work. :thup:

Here in Holland the government just announced a curfew, so I guess I’ll be making beats every night the coming weeks :smiley:

This track I played with Analog Rythm MK1, Analog Four MK2, Novation Bass Station II and the Arturia Microfreak.

Dope! A bit of just blaze vibes, but more synth-y sounding.

This time I started messing with the dual vco’s to make synthy lead sounds over this lofi instrumental. Works well, though the tracking is off sometimes.

Sounds dope! Really like your drums/percussion sounds, they sound very deep.
