@@TheRealDirtySkillz I mean I liked his small contributions he often did vocally on certain pop/rnb songs. Don’t compare him to HOV or something like that 🤣
While everybody can hear that he used some creative production techniques it's a whole different story to analyze it, remake it and present it like you did, Navie. Congrats! Regarding the 2nd example wasn't there a controversy back in the days because he did not clear the sample? I always wonder if that was his decision or the idea of the label to rip off those middle eastern artists.
They settled. Technically it’s the label’s legal team to clear the sample. The producer of the Big Pimpin sample wanted more ownership into the song but the court decided against it.
Timbaland truly is a G.O.A.T. cuz the way he creates different textures and sounds is crazy but it works. I made a video using the same sample he used for Are U that Somebody and it took me a minute to come up with something decent. lol Seeing you break down Bounce blew my mind though.
Love these overview videos man, keep them up! Timbo is one of my favorite producers hands down; just knowing that someone from my neck of the woods making ish like this inspired me to get into production as well.
Wow, what a great overview. Thanks for all the details while explaining and rebuilding the beats. I assume this did take you a lot of time to prepare everything, but it was worth it, I never learned so much in 9 minutes ;)
Would love to see you break down Beanie Siegel's 'In The Club'. One of Timbalands most insane beats in my opinion. Sample and drum pattern is so unique
Thanks! Can you make another video on types of instruments/sounds and what they’re used for? Kinda like an advanced tutorial… not just for conventional beats? Or even just conventional instruments
Thank you for this one. Im from the 757 and love Pharrell, Timbo, Missy, Davonte...pretty much anything from the Tidewater Area. I think one of the big things Timbp does, that you might have missed (or maybe saving for a part 2) is incorporating beatboxing in the beat. Someone might have mentioned this but i didnt read all the comments. Great breakdown.
I just used this technique as a challenge from some sample that had all hi hats and the parts I wanted so I took some notes and 16 leveled it. Not the best beat but it was just practice with the technique
Navie, your soundpacks are amazing. Been working on producing for a while and got a lot of different sounds from different places, but when I got your most basic pack something just clicked. The quality is so good, it's like a catalyst for ideas. In a couple of hours I created something I feel is better than anything I've done before. Maybe I just got better at producing, but the sounds just inspired me. I can't afford the more expensive ones right now, but when I got the money I know where I'm gonna put it. Keep up the good work, cause you're inspiring a lot of people
Can u just imagine when as a kid hearing all these songs and years later u get into beatmaking at some point years later as u progress and get better then come back and out of nowhere u remember songs bro back then that you listen to or heard and all of a sudden see it in fl studio and see details behind the beat. This is crazy. My mom and sister listened to her music when I was a kid. It's crazy to also see the producer behind the song showcase wild I don't think beatmaking on RU-vid even existed idk it's really interesting. Even exciting when something is giving an example in your favorite DAW mines for example is fl studio. Seeing the details behind it in fl studio is really crayy feels wierd in a good way
Yes, Royce was originally on renegade The actual song is even floating on RU-vid somewhere. Jay was trying to do the whole end feature thing and he showed him some stuff and then he asked if he could have that song and just keep Em's verses on it. It was already recorded and finished before hat did anything with it...which makes it a fact that his verses were written(Jay styled in the booth or whatever) AFTER hearing Ems.
Man i really love you vids! You should analyze Mike Shinoda (from Linkin Park / Fort Minor) style of beats, drums, melodies, structure, etc etc etc. For me he's the most underrated but at the same time one of the most talented producers outside of hip-hop!
Love Timbo to death for much of his earlier work (10 year plus ago) but he tends to rely on co-producing a lot more these days and his beats aren't as ahead of the curve as they once used to be. Most times we refer to his best work is his old work. Was also very underwhelmed by his Masterclass series.
I am into minute 5 of watching and had to stop to comment. You did a really great job with this brother! Timbaland was and still is a musical idol for me. He had a big influence on finding my own style and developing it. My friends knew how fascinated I was by his music and as a teenager I was even called Mbaland because of my first name. Hope to work with him one day and maybe also have an impact on the upcoming generations of producers. Thanks again, it was really informative and entertaining!
Much love to you Navie D, some of the best production history videos on RU-vid. The course plug is sweet (seems like a great course, im all for online knowledge transfer) but I feel like saying "if you struggle with your beats" is an unfair way of marketing it. There's stuff to be learned in it sure, but it's not going to fix all the Mr. Struggles out there...
Listen to Jodeci's last 2 albums to get a feel for Where Timbaland started. People overlook the genius Timbaland learned from the Genius Devante. All the layering etc came from Devante. Those albums are incredible masterpieces.
I believe timberland uses the MPC 2000 XL to make this beat. Before pro tools and all that stuff. The keyboard might have been first generation Korg trinity with the Roland JV 2050
Great explanation and break down i miss the days where you can listen to a song on the radio and know who produced it no need for tags now all the producers using the same kits same 808s i cant tell who produced what on the radio now
Hi , I'm a big fan of your tutorials Helped me out alot , I struggle with one bass type and I can't make it on my own , could you make quick tutorial how to make bass like in a beat Exyz - Akira Using stock FL plugins if possible .
