How I Made Folie à Deux for Mach-Hommy, Westside Gunn & Keisha Plum

- In this video I break down the beat for Mach-Hommy Westside Gunn and Keisha Plum Folie à Deux off the album Pray for Haiti! Pray for Haiti dropped May 21 2021 and changed the game for me forever. I completely found my superpowers during making the records I produced on it. Mach is an incredible talent and Westside Gunn is the 🐐executive producer.
While producing this song I had an anxiety attack and decided to use it as an inspiration for the record! Which was a wild idea in itself!

Aye man I wanna thank you and Mach. Pray for hati was the one album I kept coming back to and leaning on after my dad died. Never stop! Love and prayers to y’all👌🏿
Man I’m so thankful we could be there for you during that time. 🚂🚂🚂
Man I relate to this exactly. Rip to your pops
This is what art is about
I create for this reason 🙏🏾
:(💔🙏💯❤️
These beat breakdowns are the best thing to happen to the Internet.
Preciate you G. Share it around!!!
Facts!
Agreed ✅
Eeeee lamadonna
Oh yea I took a loop and put another loop on it...amazing
God the way this man can communicate his emotions perfectly through the music is insane
blessings family!
The only producer that shows the spiritual side of this production stuff. Thank you sir 💪🏾💪🏾
You can't show this if you don't make music from the heart
The way you do your break downs is so valuable. No screen, no plug-in presets, no piano roll, nothing technical. The way you leave all that out and focus on sound and feeling is what people really need to see. These are excellent
thank you for the love-- gotta take a different route
@@ConductorWilliams !!!!!!!
100% agree all about the feeling
music always comes from the heart, and if it doesn't then it isn't real.
Dude I clicked on this expecting some matter-of-fact breakdown of a production process and within a minute it's this deep, personal, emotional, introspective view being explained. Instantly made me more intrigued and an even bigger fan of the craft
thanks for tapping in and supporting!
That first loop sounds like the audio version of schizophrenia so I can see how it can induce a panicked reaction. That flutter effect (maybe the 606) adds a little bit of mania to your beats. It’s like one of those dreams where everything is normal but something feels off. Like some ghoul could pop out at any time, like a looming jumps scare that never happens. Same feeling you get when you watch Atlanta
all facts!
Uncanny Valley
This is just pure poetry in motion. Art in the purest form you know. The Basquiat of the production game. Nobody can compete with this
🙏🙏🙏 thank you fam
Folie Á Deux has me on a choke hold right now. Thank you for making that song possible 🫶
crazy joint fam-- thanks for rocking with me
This is one of the most legendary hip hop beats in my book, thank you for that!
🙏🙏🙏
when i think of folie a deux i always thought of it as a dark beat but now i hear the two sounds on their own it’s weird how nice they sound
Totally agree
CONDUCTOR !! Happy to see the channel growing brother, keep going !
I really appreciate the chat, you are a true professional. Thank you 🙏
easily one of my top ten beats of all time!
Man please keep making these vids they make my day
Bet keep sharing them around!!
the way you blended samples on this is insane, i thought it was all one sample for a minute
Respect!!
Mr. Rogers in a BMW visiting the Eiffel Tower vibes. It's amazing how small simple elements make sonic jewels that last a lifetime.
respect!
i love the way you express yourself. you add a lot of insight into the music.
Your manner of explaining how you felt while in the process of this composition is honestly beautiful. First time listening to someone equate beatmaking with anxiety; too real! Love and respect. One of the hardest beats ever!
🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂
I love hearing the stories behind my favorite tracks you’ve been involved with and as someone who regularly can deal with anxiety attacks your story of creating out of those feelings is really inspiring and something I will try and do moving forward. Thank Westside and Mach and Keisha for me, Griselda forever, FlyGod forever. 🙏
Pray For Haiti is one of my most favorite albums that have dropped within the past 10 years. The production you provide in this album is absolutely incredible. Listening to this album on vinyl is even better so I highly recommend getting a vinyl record of this album and listening to it on a record player. I immediately get dragged into a very specific universe with these beats. Each individual beat you make on this album gives me a certain type of feeling. It would take ages to describe everything I see and feel from these beats. The passion being put into them is very visible and we are all very grateful to have you expressing your artistic visions through these wonderful beats. Thank you Conductor and I hope you carry on sharing your music with us. What you have is a one of a kind and we are very appreciative to listen and see what you express to us with your magnificent production.
Peace man, this is one of my favorites with Mach and West, and seeing the emotional place that this instrumental came from really is surreal. To me, Pray For Haiti was a huge moment in the year for hip hop in 2021. I remember hearing WSG say “wait till you hear pray for haiti” on Westside Gunday in April and I got more excited for a release that I maybe ever have, and it met every expectation. You’re such a huge part of that to me and I really appreciate how much you’ve shared of your process. Makrel Jaxon is my favorite on the record, I’d love to hear a little of the story behind that beat. Genius to use the sample saying “c’est meilleur to switch the lingo”, boils down all the switches between English and Kreyol on the whole album.
Much respect for this family. Thank you
I love how you go through your thoughts rather than going through the literal steps. Validates many of my own similar thoughts. CONDUCTOR!!!!
This beat is so perfect! One of my favorites off the album! I really love these breakdowns
Conductor been one of my fav producers for a minute. Love every single song he touched and always got that smile on my face when hearing the tag on a new song.
This is one of my favorite hip hop beats I have ever heard, and it's so cool to hear how it came to be. It's awesome everyone in the studio was so hyped to hear it and that you had WSG and Mach to go so hard and match its potential.
As a small time producer myself it gives a lot to aspire to. Keep it up Conductor!
Thank you for sharing your creative process. Mach Hommy X Gunn X Keisha Plum were perfect for this track.
Yo conductor , nothing can touch your style, curated taste , and the depth of every project you touch! Love youre work and love you ! 🙏
This intro is a classic !! I feel the energy in this track so much!! Creatively it’s nothing that I’ve ever heard before especially the beat switch !! Really at peace when this is playing 🎣🎏 thanks for the repost 🚂🙌🏽
no doubt family
great talk! thanks for what you do!
This is a blessed beat and song, it's so cool to know the story behind it. This album put me on Mach fr and this beat is perfect for him and Westside. Props to you Conductor and your creations, you're channeling something great with this music
Thank you family- I enjoy sharing with you all
Crazy project. This one will always be a moment for me. It immediately became the only thing I was listening to. You are contributing to some of the best projects out these days!
thank you fam
You're a teacher, I love how you transmit your music. Thanks a lot Conductor
thanks for rocking fam!!
i love seeing the thought process behind any creative medium, especially production. great breakdown!
Thank you for sharing this! It’s one of my favourite beats from you.
Mach and Wes did your beat justice.
I love these breakdown video's, you got a real gift that you share with the world salute
Thank you so much bro, this was really moving and inspiring!!!
Ayyyeeee!!!
Thank You Conductor!!!
This beat goes hard with the Moog and Rhodes relationship. I love the description of the walls shrinking.
Appreciate you sharing this story with us
Legitimately one of the best beats I've ever heard. Thanks for sharing your process
This is my favorite video of yours so far EASILY!
Got a deep love for this track playing on my way to the climbing wall :)) almost couldn't believe it when I saw the thumbnail, much love
Loved how you break down the record not as a musical journey, but as an emotional journey. 2 different keys and 79 bpm is an afterthought to the process of sitting with being uncomfortable and surrendering to what's in front of you. Thanks you for sharing this.
Love this video bro you explain your mental state and how it feeds into your art and that’s something that not many producers do. Much love much respect man keep creating
Absolutely FIRE🔥🔥🔥🔥
Love these breakdowns. Your love for the craft, the music, for the people, it really shows. Refreshing to see someone who's not just trying to show how good they are and being vulnerable with your emotional connection with the music 👌🏾💯
This is such a beautiful video, I felt exactly what you described when hearing folie a deux, the anxiety from the loop but the vibe from the bass and relief from the portal, it inspires me to try and learn some music theory and start producing, thank you conductor
This page a blessing so glad I found it!
so dope. thanks for sharing
Love all your detailed breakdowns Mr Williams
This track in particular is inspiring, it does a lot, yet isn't overly complicated.
I was inspired to try a remix, but it's the track itself that was the driving force behind it.
Thanks for the inspiration, salute and flowers.
This one is my favourite beat/song in Mach's album. Love how you didn't put bass in the rapped parts and the bass loop was dope when Keisha's verse comes in... Pure genius!! Keep it up bro!!
This is amazing, deeply appreciate this #classic
Man you’re my favorite producer right now. Huge inspiration for my work🔥🔥🔥
One of the hardest beats I’ve ever heard🔥🔥
I love the way you talk about using emotion to make music
Appreciate your honesty and vulnerability 🤘
As a beatmaker hailing from KC myself, you are one of my biggest inspirations and I am so insanely happy that you're making these videos. Moon. is still one of my favorite records of yours (shoutout Stik Figa) and every year since that I feel like you've been leveling up like crazy. I love the way you talk about all of the emotion that can be captured in a single loop. please keep pushing KC forward.
I just fell in love with your production you are really my favorite producer rn they have this abstract energy kinda eerie but beautiful at the same time it’s amazing you really are talented
Creating out of that place of emotion, pain, and life experiences is a beautiful place to be, and your work is proof of that. Salute to you sir
Conductor I just wanna say your one of my favourite producers fr thank you for your art
It was song of the year 2021 hands down, no question about it.....
Love the way you broke it down. The beat is one of my top favourites.
love this story and breakdown!
Real interesting video, it's nice to see the breakdown and to get the little tidbits of information of what goes down behind the scenes. Would love to see that video of everyone reacting to the beat for the first time. Been a fan of you since hearing that Michael Irvin beat back in 2020 and have been keeping up with you and griselda since, keep up the great tunes!
Something abt THIS BEAT It feels so sweet & raw, love the breakdown DOC :) 🚂✨✨✨✨
This is so inspiring. Thanks for sharing!
The message supersedes production, this is a life lesson. Thank you!
This is one of my favorite beats. I have played this song over and over when I heard it 3 years ago. The algorithm brought me here!!
You are a legend bro this is 1 of my favourite songs as well 🔥🔥🔥
one of my favorite beats from you, i dont know how you make the beat so gritty and vintage but also so emotional, a true masterpiece.
love this! thanks
we need a whole ass series of this! love the breakdowns
UA-cam did its algorithm magic again... Thank you for such a great video! Times I experience this anxiety while producing, i know something great is going to happen.. You are awesome man, love

The tee shirt I got is dope bro, much love and respect my brother, and I really appreciate the encouragement you sent me on the video, it means more than you know. Much love and respect my brother!!🙏🏾✊🏾💚

I suffered through about a decade of crippling anxiety, panic attacks and social anxiety. Was the darkest time of my life and I was starting to have thoughts of not wanting to be here anymore. Tried meds, hypnotherapy, CBT, 10 day silent meditation retreat...nothing worked.
Then I got married and became a dad. Anxiety stopped. I guess that all my focus shifted from myself and onto my wife and kids. So even though being a parent can be crazy stressful at times I never feel anxiety anymore. I'm thinking about my kids.
That said, when I was dealing with intense anxiety it was probably the most productive time of my life muscially. When I was pacing up and down my living room feeling like my heart was going to leap out of my chest and I felt like I was suffocating, if I just started digging for a sample, chop it up etc it would help me to calm down. Then slowly my focus would shift to the music and most of the time I'd get through it.
Toughest night of my life was in a cheap hotel in Bangkok. Was on my own because my girlfirend (at the time) had just left to go home and I was staying on backpacking by myself. Had a full blown panic attack, ceiling fan whirring, horrible light that wasn't even bright at night, bars on the window. Just a grim, cheap room. I was on the verge of running down to reception bare chested and asking for an ambulance but I'd been getting into meditation and remembered what I'd heard about not pushing feelings away. So I pulled a chair into the middle of the room under the ceiling fan, sat down, closed my eyes and just sat there with the thought that I wasn't going to move. Counted my breaths and fought through it. Took a long time but eventually it passed. And despite it being a horrible experience it was a turning point because I discovered that I could deal with it alone. After that I never had a full blown attack again. I still had anxiety a lot but I could now keep it from getting to defcon 1.
That’s amazing Keith, proud of you homie! I get it sometimes at the most random times I don’t want it to happen. But I found making music, really takes the edge off as well.
Peace 🧙🏿♂️👽
