Why Every J Dilla Drum & Sampling Tutorial is WRONG!!!

I wanted to take time demystify all the myths behind J Dilla’s music production & give it accuracy. His drum & sampling technique are owed to one drum sampler alone (the MPC 3000). So, let’s walkthru thru some of the real secrets on the proper equipment & explore together. This isn’t a hit piece on any who made a tutorial. *Sources* (sub to their channel) Vox: Digging the Greats: Navie D: Dilla in the studio: Erykah Badu & Common: Kanye on Dilla: *Sponsor* RipX: (both have 30 day demo trials) *Samples used* Groovy Gems: Killerhertz: Dilla drums: Dilla drums 2: 0:00 Why 2:32 He cracked the code? 3:29 the Dilla time secret revealed! 5:05 demystifying the “swing“ secret 5:39 the hidden secret of Dilla’s micro-chopping 6:59 some MPC 3000 sequencing 7:58 some dope gear that embodies the 3000 workflow 8:17 A deeper deconstructive look at Dilla’s production with RipX 10:05 this isn’t about beef or flexing
