KINGSTRUMENTALS- KING BRITT
Sometimes in the studio, I feel I have too many options. Too many software choices, synths, etc. I felt like I needed to go back to the essence of making beats. So I dusted off the MPC2000 and grabbed stacks of wack from my library to make beats. It was such a wonderful feeling to just flip beats again. Wasn’t even thinking of releasing them, just an exercise for my brain.
The fun part was that I only used the floppy drive. Only 12sec of sample time for each joint.
All kicks, snares and sounds are all from records. Mixed raw, right out of the MPC stereo outs. Done in 1 week in April 2009 (one or two oldies thrown in for good measure)
Just some boom bap vibes for all my peeps who just love a good loop…
Enjoy and share !

d^_^b Thanks!
I know exactly what you meant by what you wrote in your first paragraph. As a song-writer myself who deals with so many easy-to-access softsynths, I too sometimes just get down with my MPC solely with samples(usually less than 30sec samples) and try to come up with 'whatever' by chopping, flipping, reversing, etc. The "Kingstrumentals" are raw yet very inspiring in that sense... and I must say I'm loving them all!!!
I also have so many 'wacks' saved in my discs, maybe I should do this with the hope to inspire anyone out there. LOL
Good work, King!!!
