New beat I just uploaded..take a listen!
WHen I made this beat, it was kind of just a chill, relaxing day I had off from work and that kind of set the tone for the track. I made the piano sample on my motif xf8 and recorded into an mpc and chopped the sample up on there. From there, I added drums and percussion before recording the patterns straight into FL studio and laying out and mixing the beat.
I actually wrote a song to this track but ended up using the lyrics to a different beat and decided to throw this one up on youtube. I love this beat because it is so chill and really leaves room for a rapper or singer to improvise their own style on the top of it.
So this for me turned out to be a "Chance the Rapper" type beat. I never start beats out and usually don't finish them thinking of an artist other than myself but I have found that it makes it easier for artists to discover beats putting that kind of tag and branding on them. For the longest time I was kind of against doing this but I have realized it is almost necessary to get traffic.
