If you enjoyed this, hit like and let me know what producer I should do next!
Metro Boomin would be nice!
Flying lotus would be dope to see you cover
Black Noi$e would be awesome
I don't think I've seen a break down on Pharrell skills and tips. Another I haven't seen almost anywhere is one on MF DOOM. Everyone points out his lyrical abilities but not many are knowledgeable of the many fascinating beats he's made in his time living
@@TahniZCat2 MF DOOM / MADVILLIANY PRODUCTION VID WOULD BE SO COOL
This is lowkey one of your best videos, it really addressed issues a lot of us producers have, particularly going into autopilot and getting stuck in a habit. Those things are really the antithesis of what being creative is all about.
Facts 👍🏿
big agree
i agree
a lot of real sauce in this one
haha man you summed up how I feel about this video so eloquently
well said!
Small tip... Alch samples often with the turntable pitch at -8 or +8, not sure what exact tuning effect it has on the samples but the outcome is most likely out of tune which combined with anything played over it like a bass line (actually tuned correctly) will result in a bit of dissonance, which in this style of creepy beats is desirable. This also makes it hard to play too much melodic stuff over the samples which explains why he tends add the complexity the way shown here.
Al's being drumless these days and it's genius. He has been my main inspiration lately.
And his beats sound so simple,but in fact they're not simple,like you showed here. Alfredo has been on repeat lately. Never gets old.
drumless rap is becoming a main part of my everyday listening. using rhythm in your voice to fill out that aspect of a song is a true talent .
hes inspired you to make lazy shit for people who listen to music on headphones/tiny blue tooth speakers. as a lover of bass with a 12" sub in my home and in my car, it sucks listening to rap music that has no knock. sounds castrated.
@@LordConstrobuz 100 percent
@@LordConstrobuz I agree I HATE Beats with no drums Instant turn off
Alchemist has stayed relevant because he never took his foot off the gass and had seeked out great artists to work with that suit his production style
I agree. He seems to always be on the lookout for new artists to work with rather than waiting for people to come to him
It's way more than that. He understands what updating without compromising means.
Listening to Tyler, the Creator made me want to start rapping, Nas made me want to start rapping WELL. In the same light, Ye made me want to start producing, Alchemist made me want to start producing WELL. It’s important to study the greats, as their work is packed with precision and details that most won’t notice but will still appreciate subconsciously. Great breakdown.
Lupe Fiasco & MF Doom, I think listening to them will help anyone who want to rap.

The Alchemist is my favorite producer! Really like your videos you do about his techniques!
You and I share that in common Grimy!
I'm so glad you broke down his "Broken Bottles" track! It's one of my favorites and also one of the most unique beats I've ever heard.
There will only be one Alchemist forever!
He gets creative with sound and that’s not something many artists or makers like to do once they “make it”. Many artists will rinse and repeat the same formula that got them successful until they’re just a former shell of themselves and they get tossed aside for the next producer. Alchemist tends to keep evolving and finding something new and that’s why he’s still relevant and wanted in Hip Hop. I don’t know the guy but I’m very proud of his career.
That broken bottles beat reminds me of NY state of mind. Alc the legend!
It's got that same grit for sure
I love these videos so much. Each one is so well produced and I've learned a LOT.
I’m just leaving a comment for this algorithm because this video is phenomenal. Fantastic, fantastic breakdowns and it’s apparent you know your stuff. Wonderful points in the video, and I wish you the best in this career.
The Alchemist, Madlib, and DJ Premier are my 🐐's
I do wanna do a video on Madlib soon
I've been watching your videos for a long time, and this is possibly the best video of yours. Awesome job!
Glad I found your channel. Your effort is appreciated 👍
That was really inspiring and genuinely good advice that's a lot more unique than a lot of videos around.
Absolutely brilliant video.
I have been doing lots of this technique without really thinking about it.
So many good tips here especially filling spaces with different things to think out of the box.
That last beat is one of the most unique beats I've heard in a while 🔥🔥🔥 this entire video was an eye opener!
the lil demo loops you make to show your point slap so hard. proof that less is more right there 🔥
this is my first video of yours and it was so informative and helpful! The pacing and editing was fantastic
Welcome! Happy to have you on board Austin
This was very interesting. Thanks!!
2:15 where he says find one and turn that into a beat instead is so badasss
Hi Cool what did I win
Thanks for sharing. I feel like Alchemists music comes from his heart. He is absorbed and is the culture. This is great but most importantly expand your knowledge and make it something you feel. Be careful not to chase your tail trying to chase someone else’s.
Keep up the great content.
Man I feel so inspired after watching this, thank you so much!
So good again Navie 🙌
Great video bro!
This is insane! Thank you so much navid.
U killed it with that Drill beat, god damn. Very creative
Thanks Sam!
What is brutal to watch is how you manage to make a exemple with a beat, and they always kill it man, really
daaamn
Navie - that last loop was friggin killer!
I haven’t watched a tutorial in months. This is very helpful. Thanks man
Glad I can help! Whats the reason for not watching tutorials anymore?
Thank you for the knowledge brother.
Thank you for your analyse you bring me an another vision of sampling and texture great vidéo .
You're the first person I've heard describe the difference between melody vs texture that way. I haven't been able to put it in good words

This some sauce thanks 🙏🏽

Great video fam 🙏🏾✊🏾💚
love this video, uncle al is the GOAT
Bro This video is super informative.. techniques I was using when I first started but had no daw knowledge
That boombap drill is hard actually 🔥🔥🔥
Merci, j'ai beaucoup appris.
One thing i think is incredibly important in this kind of hip hop (boom bap, lofi, half time, west coast/La beats) is SPACING giving all your elements a space to breathe and cutting the tails off your sounds can really help add drive and groove to your beat; especially if you have stuff that’s off grid.
Big ups Navi, would love to have you on my channel sometime
Just checked out your channel. Your life is certainly full of variety!
@@DrBigFMC thank you so much! Never a dull moment
this got me inspired in the middle of writers block so I had to hit the sub button!
Al the greatest IMO
