@manhamnight oldheads like him call all modern rap mumble auto tune, because they think every rapper is Lil Pump 🤦♂️ there's so many different subgenres of rap and they all sound different.
If you look at song arrangements in the lense of "rock" music or "EDM" music, then doing abrupt switches becomes easier to pull off. Have it sound like a HipHop song obviously, but structure like its in another genre then it really helps as well
While it’s good to learn basic beat making rules to keep structure, know when it’s a good time to break it. I saw a clip of Chadwick Boseman’s James Brown movie where his band isn’t too sure if his song works musically. He simply states something like “if it sounds good and feels good, then it’s good.” Might be misquoting, but even back then people knew when to break the norm.
@@endgangwars That's true, I meant more from Navie's POV he's playing the algorithm game by picking a snappy title lol, I agree with what you said for sure
Found with just about every skill in life, being good at something is learning all the rules to follow, being great at something is learning how and when to break the rules so highlighting the ways Peggy does this is a great idea for a video
Navie, I think one of the best transitions on beats are the ones in Estilo Libre by Residente. It changes the beat like every 30 seconds, without missing the flow and the rhythm of the song, I think it’s worth a video. Greetings!
JPEGMAFIA is so creative, he doesnt rely on a quantization and its off-putting at first but it hits so good. Randomly cutting off guitars as the beat drops or transitioning from a really hard, high energy beat to something mellow is what I think people find him so appealing especially his ability to sound cohesive and flow on these beats
2:22 - He's switching tracks like a DJ would, especially in the hip hop world were speed of transition is far faster than in dance music. The longer 1+ minute switch ups are by producers that have never been DJs is my best guess.
11:24 its like what happens to ur brain psychologically when u walk thru a door. its a sensory stunner. like the turbo bar in mario kart. it trips the mind. suddenly ur in a different place in the same race one moment later and everythings changed. the brain has to move on to the next part just to survive
This is such an amazing breakdown video. I agree with you. Peggy is insane with his production as always, very inspiring for me cause it could be applied in art too. I love creatives that break the usual rules.
I don't know why but the beat you made at the end reminds me of 'Boards of Canada' Specifically their song roygbiv.... maybe its just the synths and acustic drums combo...
not only were these solid and insightful points, but you made a good ass beat that showed your ability to turn observations into actions. shoutout to you, navie!
NO nono that beat youve made is DISGUSTINGLY good its not even my usual taste omg you are crazy good for that while typing this I just heard the second beat WHAT?!?!
Those of you who are exhuberant and excited about production, learn it from someone with a proven track record. If you're going to learn it from people on the internet, learn it from people who have charted somewhere consistently. Plugins, daws, samples, and knowledge are freer now than they have ever been. There are a lot of grifters preying on young people who are excited to learn but don't know where to turn.
I've been using modular since 2000, it feels like you're putting a lot of emphasis on the format... United you're specifically meaning analogue synth sound? Otherwise the only distinction between digital modular synth vs ITB is physicality and ergonomics. Anyway enjoyed this and subbed.
peggy is the living example of "making music for yourself > pre-packaging what people would like", fans should always be the last thing you make music for
Another amazing break down Navie with Great Visuals 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 I especially loved the direct Vocal sample comparison between Kanye's DiaNd and dont rely on other men 🤯
Kind of a bad example of a JPEG bestswitch. "Its dark and hell is hot" doe's have a beatswitch, the beat itself is just dynamic. Most instrumentals in classical and jazz arent based on loops, the song changes as it continues but is still very much the same. Because songs are all based on loops now, if anyone hears the instrumental change at all its considered a "beatswitch" even if its just a drum pattern change or a new chord progression. Beat switches occur when the instrumental is changed completely to alter the mood or structure of a song. "Nights" by Frank Ocean and "SICKO MODE" are examples, whereas JPEG songs like "Steppa Pig" have no switches, the melody just changes several times but it's still the very same beat
"modular synth" is a highly specific statement regarding gear, and we have zero information indicating that any of these sounds were created on a modular synth.
Basically drum and bass/dubstep techniques haha #1 is used for quick mix when djing can be used in any genre. #2 is any dnb with vocals #3 early dubstep used lot of cinematic vocal samples.
I don't really agree as every point here can be applied to 6ix (logic producer) and brockhampton. I do think there's a unique sound in jpegmafia's production but I think it has more to do with his comfort with frantic rhythms and melting genres than the points made here tbh.
Step 1- buy a 404 Step 2- make album Step 3- say FOH 404 and break it on a livestream over Hank Peckers head or sumn idk u tell me. PS. Sample A.I for the culture🤣💀
I never really listened to JPEG Mafia but his tactics are fresh and the way you made that transition at the end of this video is very inspirational. I might try to do that too
Might be the best beat you've made as an example on one of these yet. I don't always agree with your takes, but I appreciate someone who can see inside Peggy's genius. Keep talkin yo shit Navie I'm subbed on 2 accounts now lol
it’s crazy for me to see producers like jpegmafia sampling brazillian funk djs, i went to a dj ramemes show here in my town, and he is pretty underrated, a friend of mine knows him and even went eat burgers with the dude while other musicians are sampling his songs all over the world, it’s insane how far funk has come.
Navie D -> Karim Benzema Step by step process 1. take away the d 2. take away the e 3. take away the n 4. take away the a 5. take away the v 6. take away the i 7. add a karim 8. add a benzema 9. keep his appearance the same finished

That's what trap metal artists tend to do. Sudden genre switching is pretty powerful.

You probably went to the same show that I did it was amazing
if I heard "don't rely on other men" at a concert I might have a heart attack from the excitement
I've never been covered in so much of other peoples sweat in my life. It was awesome

Hip hop producers finding out what electronic music producers have been doing for decades the video
I honestly feel like you can make a whole hour video just talking about jpegmafia’s use of DRUMS and Guitar
JPEGMAFIA sampling the Brazilian Dj Ramemes is just another level.
JPEGMAFIA is so creative, he doesnt rely on a quantization and its off-putting at first but it hits so good. Randomly cutting off guitars as the beat drops or transitioning from a really hard, high energy beat to something mellow is what I think people find him so appealing especially his ability to sound cohesive and flow on these beats
every beat maker imitating jpegmafia type beat should watch this toturial
your second beat after the switch sounded like a lost part for new magic wand to me
2:22 - He's switching tracks like a DJ would, especially in the hip hop world were speed of transition is far faster than in dance music.
The longer 1+ minute switch ups are by producers that have never been DJs is my best guess.
your beat sounds like hotline miami🔥
08:46 - wasn't Kieran Culkin's breakthrough role 2002's Igby Goes Down?
11:24 its like what happens to ur brain psychologically when u walk thru a door. its a sensory stunner. like the turbo bar in mario kart. it trips the mind. suddenly ur in a different place in the same race one moment later and everythings changed. the brain has to move on to the next part just to survive

He doesn’t use “ideas” he just creates he doesn’t think and neither should you that ruins the point of creativity
For #3, a great example is the track I'm On Everything by Bad Meets Evil. They used a Mike Epps standup clip to create the chorus
1:01 lego car fr
car looks squashed lol
I love how he sampled Brazilian Funk for a track
I think hes just going back to "bad" ideas we all tried and gave up on and using his mastery and expertise to flip them into genius ones.

Good video tho, and more artists should do what Jpeg does and make more dynamic instrumentals that change without having "beatswitches"
"modular synth" is a highly specific statement regarding gear, and we have zero information indicating that any of these sounds were created on a modular synth.

thansk for uplaoding this, ive been loving the new peggy album, has some great production
How and where do I learn every single thing I need to know about making beats/music in FL? Mixing, equalizer, samples, everything.
If you find these songs where the beat switches up really quickly interesting you definitely have to check out tsuruda and woolymammoth.
bro made a NIN song at the end there
Agreed. Was kinda wild
Bro the song skitzo has 2 beat switches (actually 3) and the last one is a direct cut, still great video, keep ya head up
There was a little breath of fresh air before the switch and that’s what made it work. It was short but effective.
Man everytime I want a video you post
I done did it
Step 1- buy a 404
Step 2- make album
Step 3- say FOH 404 and break it on a livestream over Hank Peckers head or sumn idk u tell me.
PS. Sample A.I for the culture🤣💀
On the first listen, new black history was so weird and so jarring. Took a few listens to really find the groove of it. I really grew to like it
