I this vlog I discuss how I stay inspired to make beats. We travel to an old train yard, re-live some memories then head back to the studio to make some fire beats.
"all the answers are within" as a fellow producer going thru a tuff time dealing with depression, i just wanna say thank you for this. everyday i go thru some of your videos and its really been helping me getting back on my feet, feel inspired, more organized and more positive. Appreciate you and your work brother. Peace from Brazil!
The process of not saving beats is mind blowing to me. I save everything, and just come back whenever I get writers block... I'm gonna try that process though, it seems creatively liberating
your videos are inspiring. i was having one of worst days earlier today and after i watched just one conductor video i just got motivated to get up, take care of myself and record some music. i recorded three songs in just a matter of hours. thanks man, don’t stop.
Man, I feel the same way sometimes. Where I don't really get inspired to create from listening to music itself, thought something was wrong with me, lol. My motivation and inspiration come from my environment. I can definitely resonate with you on being in dad/husband mode and balancing making music with family duties. I try not to be so hard on myself for not having as much time but sometimes those thoughts are still there. I do my best to just enjoy the process when I'm in my creative space. Your videos help. Appreciate you sharing your perspective, it really is inspiring bro!!
That dad/husband grind works at our advantage bro- when we get a peek of time we have learned to crunch creativity and maximize. When single we could find other aimless things to do. Idle time
@@ConductorWilliamsyeah as a 14 year old with a ton of extra time I really want to learn to apply the “not a lot of time” mindset when I do actually have a lot of time
I don’t usually right comments on RU-vid but man you’re like the most inspiring/coolest dad ever…I really appreciate what you’re doing with your channel
Love the thought of “what is the my why” I’ve always told myself that i play guitar or make a beat just for my own enjoyment. I don’t even share my music with others
Yes my man - daddy time for me too when my daughter back from daycare 4pm ish - 8ish daddy time. But these days im stuck in the bottom of that barrel e-digging on RU-vid- havent found a gem in a while! ‘God & Art’ is on repeat tho peace!
Life inspires music. You have a gift to translate your life into music for us to enjoy, keep up the amazing work to inspire others to follow in your footsteps as well. Glad to hear your making waves amongst the people you admire. Thank you for your words of encouragement and wisdom, I hope to do the same one day.
Yo the beat on 8am might be beat of the century I knew you was the truth since Rome and Benny but that Drake one is wow king 👑👑👑👑 if I could get a beat from you I’d rip it Foreal
I try not to think of the past because it makes me look at my life on what i accomplished and i gotta say im so upset with myself although im great full and happy that im breathing but theres times where i get mad cause i woke up #lostsoul #weareourownenemy
Love your beats so much, i really wanna know how you do this thing where the samples sound kinda out of tune or something i can't really describe it but it sounds so dope.
I save everything, but then again I'm not a Dad, I was an uncle and heavily involved in My sisters kids when they where young but Me and sis dont talk nomore so My efforts where a waste. I should of been focusing on My own life and My women and patetul future children.
Much love, I go through my dads cassettes and all his memorabilia just to remember the good times and everything he's shown me. I like to think he'd be proud of what I cook up but what always helps me keep going and creating is to think he's there listening to the beats and watching me throughout the whole process. Peace and blessings Conductor keep going and striving.
When you say “saving isn’t part of the process.” Are you referring to your workouts? Or are you saying you never save a beat to come back to? Every beat is completed in the moment?

cats like you are the dopest man!! I met a guy in a book store that told me he had a band and they only made music for his wife to drive to work to!! He gave me the cd from his truck-- easily some of the best prog rock ive heard
I never experienced writers block I just run out of time, whenever I get fatigued, I just feel grateful that I'm not on my deathbed. Remind myself that Dilla made Donuts despite dying, Remind myself of how much my dad still wanted to do when he was alive how he died with a wet paint brush in his hand. Ill grind for hours doing something I dont like until I get that spark but I always find that spark I wont go to sleep until I do.
@@ConductorWilliams I feel that, when I was starting to feel stagnant, I went to a Roc Marci show and I happened to meet my current co producer and we set up studio time, and I thought I might have to use my old rhyme book but then God gave me plenty to say. because my father died suddenly and my stepmom immediately cut ties from me, the same day I find out that my best friend committed suicide and then I got into a major car accident where my face was permanently disfigured that same week. And I am so grateful to have Hip Hop as a tool to give me the capacity to express and process these events. I feel I can relate more to others now and felt compelled to offer some of my own love to the world through art to help articulate the things that need said and the moments that need felt.
“Find your why” man that hit home. And resonate with your why. For my why is the same. I remember being 5 years old in the back of my fathers Chevy Tahoe deconstructing Pete rock beats in my wondering how they even make beats at all. And here I am 21 years later. Made out of music, and my why is for my overall well being. Thank you for inspiring all of Conductor 🎉❤
I'm absolutely reverberating with your energy, your message, your workflow. Thanks so much for sharing, it inspires me to cook some stuff up again. Peace!
Man i've been down lately because i payed for a feature with a rapper to go over one of my beats and i got scammed. You saying "money comes and goes" makes me feel a little better about it. I learned my lesson though. It just sucks because i really loved this rapper i've been listening to them for around 5 years now. I appreciate these videos Conductor keep being yourself it's really inspirational
Man, I’ve been there before! Don’t feel dumb. What were your plans for the verse? Clout or were you gonna flip it for cash I.e press a 7” or something?
@@ConductorWilliams I just wanted to work with the dude. To be honest I did want some recognition from it too because he’s a got a decent following. Im not gonna drop names in the comment section but you definitely know who he is. I thought I could’ve trusted it but I’m just accepting it at this point
@@ConductorWilliams could’ve honestly invested in some new stuff for the studio. Been really just trying to think as positive as I can about the situation because at the end of the day I can’t really do anything about it
