    40 is a top-tier producer. Will go down as one of the best.

  • @thekidcalledBLACK

    It's crazy how a producer, engineer, and recording artist all can hear a song differently. Before I started producing. I heard the beat and flows. Once I started producing. I heard the beats, patterns, progression, what drum instruments are being used, etc. I wanna hear music as an engineer like these guys. They can hear things I never even realized existed in these song. Wow.

      +jalen martin Same here. I had the same progression as u. I'm focused heavy on mixing now and Its crazy what u hear when u pay attention to the mix. ALOT of modern commercial music is over compressed and have subpar mixes.

    I wonder why 28 people thumbs down this video. 10 bucks say it's because they despise Drake. I can't imagine disliking this. The information 40 is pouring out is awesome. As a fellow engineer, man!

    First time ever seeing who "40" actually is. By far impressed and how empowering his knowledge is for engineering and music philosophy is. Def look up to this guy even more as a engineer and producer.

    • @Glenuig
      @Glenuig 10 років тому +10

      He's a very talented guy. You only have to listen to the beats of Drakes album to see how different he is from what everyone else around today is producing. Hope he stays in the game for a while.

    • @kaydunk3149
      @kaydunk3149 9 років тому +3

      Glenuig Just based off of his diversity, I know he's here for the long run. Thats why I look up to 40 because though he has his particular sound he doesnt abuse it like other producers.

    The more and more I learn about music.. The more I realize that making music is like making a movie... From a movie perspective you have to have 1) Good actors.. 2) good director 3) good producer. And also take good shots and what not. With songs : Good rapper/singer good mixer , good audio engineer. It really all has to line up.

    You don't really get to see how brilliant he is until you watch this interview. I'm glad he killed the noise of people thinking he just uses a low pass and actually puts work into his music. I'd actually like to hear more of the So Far Gone sound with more R&B artists.

    Thank you very much, beyond anything, for this interview. its raw and the connection between dave and 40 is amazing in terms of mixing. amazing advice and personally an amazing reminder to be comfortable and not to let your ears be around too much hiphop if you're going to produce hiphop. I love how 40 said he sometimes goes to van morrison and the beach boys to clear his musical palet. Thats something every producer needs to do. 40 is so humble. He's supposed to be where he's at!

      If you understand a bit the math behind filters, the two things are really the same lol... A low pass filter behaves like an integrator, something that averages signals trough time, so it's like you are using less samples

      @sebastianfjorn 4 роки тому +4

      @@BooyahL if you mean that both actions cuts frequencies then yes, you're right.
      to make it more simple; a lowpass cuts frequencies and if you degrade the sample rate, it erases frequencies. but degrading the sample rate leaves a more grittier sound than if you were to use a lowpass.

    For me I think it would be a great thing if they asked the guests if they had any education background on what they are doing. It gives a little more in sight. I find myself looking up education background for artists all over the net

    Loved watching this, learned a lot. Very happy the Aaliyah question was asked. It's good to hear from the horse's mouth what happened (or didn't happen) with it. Love this series!
