    This is a great example of how to make a sample collage. Sometimes the samples are discordant but that’s where the magic lies - in making things that shouldn’t fit with each other work. Well done Marlow. Looking forward to hearing that big ass organ in the background in a beat one day!

    What's up Marlow? Thank you very much for sharing!!! Watching you sample keys from your Yahama with the little chord progressions kind me look at the sample process in a new creative way. I've sample from keyboards in the past when I use to have the AKAI MPC 2000x, but I was not sampling multiple cords, I was sampling single chords. Now I'm ispired to try something different. This video also motivates me to get more into music theory because I have a love for keyboard progressions

    • @mpchead
      @mpchead  3 года назад

      Because I don't understand much about chord progressions I tend to sample randomly and figure it out later.

    So you ran out of LP's to sample from and decided to make your own chords!?! Awesome result. When you hooked up the kids Yamaha keyboard I feared the worst but DAMN, you found some nice Rhodes-alike sound and laid down some sweet chords. And with the added samples pure gold was struck! Loved the flipping the script part. Makes for way more interesting listening when artists add something that breaks up the song and then return back to basics.
