Got a Just-Blaze produced Kanye track for you this week! Might seem like a simple sampling job, but there are some less than straightforward things going on under the surface. Hopefully those technical things I explain make sense.
Back at it again with a classic. Gonna be back every week like clockwork.

This beat is more complex than I ever imagined, much respect to Just Blaze

@PtylerBeats 6 лет назад

guitarman64100 oddly enough, the beat was simpler than I imagined haha I guess I should’ve known it was a sample, but I imagined all the horns and strings being played live and original. The drums are crazy, but I knew that already. Just blaze is honestly nuts 🔥

@tinypeas 9 лет назад

Not a music producer or anything, but this is really entertaining for some reason.

@Sandurz 9 лет назад

That's good news to me. Don't want only interest producers so I'm happy to hear it.

@SuzukiGil10 2 года назад

Didn't know he played the drums. That explains how good he is at filling in space in his beats.

The original beat breakdown. You were ahead of your time. Thanks for the classics

@snowdjagha 8 лет назад

I'm pretty sure the dude on the drums is not Just Blaze. He's actualy recording that video and the guy in the drums is the drummer from 1500 or Nothin, the band that provided the "musical bodies" to some of his productions.

@leftcloud9 Год назад

THAT PART. Just Blaze is and has been a master producer for a long time BUT THAT is 1500 or nothing...one of the different musicians he has used in the past

@samurai331 9 лет назад

Wow Just Blaze can really lay it down on the drums, cool to see how multi talented producers/beat makers can be. This series is opening my eyes to the process and what goes into making some of the songs I've always enjoyed makes me appreciate them even more. Keep up the good work!

@Sandurz 9 лет назад

Lol and that's even him my dumb ass didn't look very close now I can see it's not him. That's the drummer from 1500 or Nothing this band he's worked with forever. But that guy kills it! Glad to hear you're digging it.

@kamielvermeulen3805 Год назад

I’m not entirely sure but based on my internet research I believe it’s not Just Blaze playing those live drums for Show Me What You Got but it’s actually Kenneth “Bam” Alexander from 1500 or Nothin’, a collective of live instrumentalists that Just Blaze regularly worked with

@propanesalesman660 10 месяцев назад

Nope. Live drums on just beats are always played by someone else. Hovi Baby was Lupe Fiasco. Show Me What You Got was Larrance Dopson from 1500 or Nothin

@lightskinbr0 9 лет назад

Awesome videos.. Question about what software you used for the advanced time stretching/warping at the top of the video? That did not look like part of the Maschine software. I'm still using 1.8 so if it's part of the update.. I need that!!! BTW subbed after the first video.

@phatchrispratt5392 9 лет назад

Lightskin Bro Hey man, you probably know this by now, sorry I'm 3 months late. He was using Ableton Live if I understand your question correctly. Ableton's Warp feature allows you to place custom warp markers (the yellow tabs) on the beats you want, and you can time-stretch the piece to the desired tempo

@lightskinbr0 9 лет назад

Samson Raps Thank you so much.. I actually didn't find out the answer so that is very much appreciated for your reply. Thanks again!

@JamellKool21 8 лет назад

Hey do Just Don't Give A Fuck by Eminem plz. it was produced by Dr. Porter, Dr. Dre, and the Bass brothers.

@tripwerd4191 8 лет назад

Also, wouldn't it make more sense to tune down the sample 1/2 semitones using the classic time/tempo algorithm before applying the more complex time stretching algorithm? That way the audio file would be a little closer to the target tempo before applying the primary time stretcher, maybe causing less distortion, artifacts, etc. because the stretcher doesn't have to work as hard. I always figured that was one of reasons Just Blaze tuned down the sample.

@Sandurz 8 лет назад

+Drew Pirt I think generally when you do a pitch shift and a time stretch simultaneously it'll figure out the best way aka the simplest computationally speaking. So it would essentially do exactly what you say automatically, but without having to commit to a certain tuning before hand.

@gnawnitsua 9 лет назад

how exactly would I do the time-stretching on each sample on FL studio? what program or what settings?

@Sandurz 9 лет назад

As far as I know, the slicer in FL studio does this already? Not totally sure about that since I don't make beats inside of it very often but I'm pretty sure auto-slice in the built in slicer can do that. Someone can correct me on that if I'm wrong lol.
