Cross post from the bi-weekly sample challenge, threw it together tonight, mix is a bit rough and I wish I could have found a cleaner version of the vocal but I’m pretty happy considering it only took a couple of hours to bash out…

On a side note here’s a date for your diary in 23… Feb 15th sees the start of the new and final season of wu tang saga… I literally can’t wait…

Yes! Just had that song on my Spotify release radar today. I knew I’d heard the sample before and was a little disappointed in myself when I looked it up and saw that it was used in concrete schoolyard by Jurassic 5. I used to listen that song so much
I’m excited to check out the rest of the little simz album

I also gave this it’s own thread, but it also belongs here:
The last few months I worked on an instrumental hiphop album using nothing but my ARmk2, a tascam portastudio 4 track cassete recorder and a lot of samples.
I used the portastudio for mixing, some recording and some sampling. Most songs are bounced to tape, others just recorded through the mixer.
I’m curious to hear what you guys think about it!

Sounds great. I’ve had it on repeat while I’m working. Tracks 4, 5, and 6 are my favorites I think, but the whole thing is solid af and extremely well mixed. Great work! Congrats!

Really nice work mate.
I really must get a new power cord for sampletrak I stopped using it when my cord broke about 5 years ago, but yeah I love the way it sounds too, just sampling and pitching any sample down with it sounds so good.
Great stuff.

Thanks guys! I just love the way some samplers sound. I’d say an elektron sampler/sequencer combined with some character sampler/fx unit is a perfect combo for hiphop.
