      Who Sampled It Better? Pete Rock (Nas - The World Is Yours) or DJ Premier (Jeru the Damaja - Me or the Papes) [Ahmad Jamal - I Love Music].
      Also a Swizz Beats video could be dope. I would love to see breakdowns of beats like Wild Out, MCH, All For The Love, etc.

    I love them just as much, but I often wonder if we look for genius in serendipity. It probably happened to you as well, trying to play chops or randomizing sounds and ending up with a dope pattern without thinking about it. I think a lot of classics are just that. It's definitely a stellar ear for sound, but I'm not sure all of it is genius or algorithm.

    Idk about advanced kanye chops but i feel like these "tricks" are just from playing samples instead of programming them. When you drop samples to pads and play you find a lot of small pieces and combining on different rhythms.

    This ended up being a very interesting and informative. Stem splitting sounds very useful, I also had no idea you make your own freaking VSTs. That is baller. As for the sampling...
    I like Kanye's beat the most because he used creative sampling techniques. Alchemist's beat is usually how I do it, keeping it simple and adding my own expressions.
    But you... You had the most resourceful and knowledgeable tactic when it comes to wave shaping and sound manipulation. You did way more than just sampling. I loved the reversing as well as fading in the high layer. I love automations.
    Like I said, very informative. I really liked this video.

    I have a beat and I was wondering if Naive D could review it so if you are reading this can you help make it the top comment by liking or commenting on it, just whatever it takes to get Naive D's attention.

    The way you analyze and break down these beats are impressive but so far the beats I’ve heard u make aren’t as good as your breakdown game, that being said you’re not bad but you are 0 for 5 with the pros, being as though I just came across your channel. But when your skills catch up to the way you analyze beats, you’ll be a top notch beat maker.
