I R Timbaland! Check My Phat Beeeeeetz!1!1

This was done as an experiment. I made a single pattern in a sort of timbaland style (i.e. simplistic…however, this time I didn’t sample a finnish chiptuner…sorry…) then played with track mutes while a rap played over it…

This is the result. Genius? Hardly…took around 45 minutes make the loop. A little bit longer to get the low quality acapella to sound okay…

If you’ve heard the original, you’ll notice it’s significantly faster…this was done live…just figure out how to do this…use the VST ‘The Modulator’ and set the modulation source to the carrier and use the amp modulation…then make beat match the vocals (reguardless of how it sounds) to the song…then adjust the carrier pitch on The Modulator. Voila. realtime time stretch/compression. The results are heard here…I think the original went around 90bpm and here it’s played at 120 bpm.

Anyway, enjoy this little joke and stab at pop’s laziest producer.

yeah, it’s a nice loop…
but honest…?

timbaland is a great producer and you have a long way to
go if you want to get to that level. that’s zero sarcasm for ya.

seriously, he might be a ripper, but he pwns us all and most of
the trackers can’t take it that it takes him so little to be so good.

whats a rap music?

I missed the joke i think…though i did hear about some guy called timbaland who was a song theif…

yes, and then the scene turned deaf to decent music,
because Timber doesnt share his sourcefiles …

kind of ironic for a scene existing because the people
stole eachothers samples for years… but that’s somehow ‘different’

but I still like your groove a lot, hseiken :)

A long way to go to get to timbaland’s level? Hmmm…you mean down to timbaland’s level or up to where I have enough money to hire ‘poop polishers’? ;)

Edit: Stealing samples (which usually give credit from what I’ve seen) for music freely distributed and stealing samples for profit are two beasts. Comparing them is logical but in the end, there is no comparison.

nice beat

Nice Beat, yeah.

But don’t diss on Timbaland.

Okay, so he stole music from a tracker, but that doesn’t change the fact that he’s the nr 1 producer in the world right now.

Personally, I love Timbalands tracks.

And he makes music videos with hot hot hot furtado :D so no complaints.

nice beat hseiken.

and timbo sux big time! no respect for him

well, timbaland just samples what he gets, and what I call “intro”-sampling has been a plague in hiphop for ages, that’s basically taking a 2/4-bar loop of something and adding drums.

the fact that makes timbaland so bad is that he didn’t admit this and just refused paying the royalties for that sample, thats what makes him the idiot he is.

apart from that he is and has been a good producer.

Thats what I mean whe nI say ‘a long way to go’.
If you have respect for him or no, he’s good at what he does.

Just like any mob boss… or suicidebomber… or prime minister…

…Which is riding the success of others by tagging his name onto much more talented artists. The point of this excercise wasn’t to show that I’m better than him in any regards…it was to show that any medicre track is made infinately better by putting well known and respected artists (in this case, Wu Tang and LL Cool J) vocals on top.

In these instances, the producer has no business taking credit for it’s success…the vocalists do. If I worked with Nelly Furtado or Esthero on a track, I’m sure I’d be labeled a genius too when in fact it’s those vocalists who are in the spotlight, not my backing music. What’s really sad about the whole ordeal is how Nelly Furtado is guilty by association with the ‘Do It’ track…
