Guest Blanket Fort Collapse Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 I was least impressed with J Rocc all around in that vid but he smoked liek 7 blunts while he was listening to his records so he dope dawg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr12000 Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Yeah, but J Rocc's beat was easily the dopest. The music speaks for itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Blanket Fort Collapse Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 I completely disagree that J Rocc's beat was the "dopest" lol I love how I say dope all the time but gotta put it in quotes to be an asshole. I didn't like the way he cut up the vocals. I dunno I dont really see how someone could make something much worse than that with an MPC and some old decent records. It was exactly what I expected from him, didnt surprise me at all, the other cats put a magical spin on the records imho but yeh J Roccs just sounded like a kid with an MPC and some old records Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braintree Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Interesting. It was a little boring at the beginning, but I enjoyed it. I'm surprised none of them got really deep into the sampling game. You could totally make patches out of all of that stuff and really make it sound nothing like the original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alzado Posted March 6, 2010 Author Share Posted March 6, 2010 J Rocc's track is by far the best, which is why they picked it as the main track for the film, I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest margaret thatcher Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 I'm surprised none of them got really deep into the sampling game. You could totally make patches out of all of that stuff and really make it sound nothing like the original. yeah, but that goes a little bit against the object of the exercise....i think if they had started microsampling, they might as well have just used synths. but yeah, this is a sick idea for an ekt project. 5 records from a junk shop (oxfam has some serious quality for those in the uk). then make an ep out of them in a week.

Along with the rest of the beat junkies, he's a fucking ace dj too. I saw him live with madlib a few years back and he was easily responsible for most of the hotness (especially since what madlib does doesn't translate so well live) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ms-dos Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 sweet little video and even neater project. j rocc's track has samples from one of the beats featured in bambaataa's death mix 2 (the "baby you laughin'" and "uh!" samples). anyone have an ID on that?

The Green Kingdom Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 Wasn't this cheating then according to the "rules" (doesn't make it any less of a dope track) I think that would be cheating. Ordered my copy, I didn't watch the whole thing online so I could watch the dvd- no spoilers Anyone have a copy yet? I'm curious about the Kutmah mix- is it just a mix of the tracks they created or different/unused stuff as well? All of his mixes are great btw- check him out on Dublab.

Guest blicero Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 Are the full tracks (other than J-Rocc's) posted anywhere to listen? BTW, I would do the shit outta this in EKT. Let's set it up. Records are fine, but i would like to know what records people used... so we know there's no cheating ;) dumbass director for not knowing the meaning of "chop" totally agree BUT... how about how long it took for J-Rocc to explain it? How fucking high are you, man?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's set it off like Project 168 style, but instead of limited time, limited source material. I'd even make/host a microsite for the final products it'd be nice to hear what my fellow watmm-ers would do without synths and VSTis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alzado Posted March 11, 2010 Author Share Posted March 11, 2010 no sampled breaks either, right? all beats must come from the album(s) you've sampled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest blicero Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 yep. all source audio from the records only. if you're lucky, you'll pick up a record with a good break ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest margaret thatcher Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 how about, we post the finished ep, and a zip of the 5 ripped records we used too, to prove there was no cheating...? i'm in, by the way, sounds awesome. i'll actually be using records from the local oxfam.
