He has to learn that's why! If you are self taught you also made that mistake. He's actually letting him get the feel of it instead of holding his hand the whole time.

[@aidanfl]

Trunks Briefs that’s not necessarily bad

[@aidanfl]

Trunks Briefs it really depends on the music, different rhythms exists. So get out of ur 2019 trash music head

[@ficokr1673]

Trunks Briefs bro this is mainly applicable to house/dance/etc type music, hip hop is mainly the snare on beat 3, however every pattern is possible in all genres.

[@playboy8082]

Lee W cause seeing an amateur kinda cringes us especially when we know all the shortcuts and stuff lol

[@DJXRitter]

Lol this is not at all what I’m talking about, but those are all true. I’m just looking at all that money’s worth of studio equipment and so sad that he doesn’t know how to use it. Or the fact they didn’t emphasize how important those tools are important in the transition from production to the mixing you hear when you listen.
I take back my statement about Tay, I actually like he stays in his element, it allows him to do his thing and focus on the production that driving this success thus far. Dope cat. Really hope I can work with him one day.

[@SneakerPhetish]

That tag is MONEY. Speedy might have found a new lane for real.

[@DAYDREAMbeats]

Step 1: Copy and paste drum patterns from previous beats
Step 2: Change the melody

[@DHawkBeats]

SHEESH! Lol I mean that definitely works, but people switch up the drums by their sounds or with different 808s usually. I hate using the same drum patterns though, so I always try to switch it up every beat

That's a signature thing I mean you probably talking about Tay Keiths drums always same hat hat hat hat snare etc.
