Made this in about 3 hours, YEARS ago. It was my very first video uploaded to youtube.
There wasn't many MPD24 videos so I decided to make this real quick and posted it.
The other mpd32 video, I created to display a live looping technique I figured out using the MPD32 and a loop pedal VST called mobius, running in FL Studio.
11yrs later and this still amazing
13 years now and are still right.
15 years later he still rocks. I was 4 years old when he made this
Gonna be 16 this month. Legend.
15 years later, and I still feel that same level of inspiration from this than when I found it in '07.
same dude same
Time management is the reason I learned how to do things, the reason I bought an mpd, the reason I became someone's producer, the reason I became an mc and started writing, the reason I've been recording this last year, it opened a world for everything I didn't know. It's been SOOO long. But it's like I always come back to this video. Thanks for everything man. Inspiration
Insane to hear. Wild. Thanks for the comment bro 👊❤️
This is a youtube classic
@KwyatMan thats correct. I recorded my self on a turntable doing a quick chirp forward. then a quick Chirp backwards..Then the release of the sample...playing out fully. 3 samples go on three pads. FPC's master pitch is assigned to the slider. Then the pitch bend is set to 12 (one full ocitive)...tap the chirp samples while sliding the pitch...center the pitch when you hit the release sample..
I got this cassette tape from a thrift store called "Learn to manage your time correctly" it was one of those self help tapes from the 80's.
I was 16 when I first heard this masterpiece. I turn 30 this year. Just stopping by to say hello
Same shit bro, I turn 30 in 25 days .. always come
Back to this vid been on my liked vids for a grip
That's so crazy and it makes me feel old as hell 😂. And I'm still making beats everyday as well. not sure that's a good or bad thing 😂
Same thing broda hehehehehe .i'm still here with 30 years old feeling This masterpiece exactly the same what when i've Started .genius bro 💪💪🔥
@@antraxraptuga blows my mind people still come back to watch this. So old ha. Look at that keyboard 😂. I should make more performance vids like this but more updated haha. Thanks for watching bro 👊🙏
@@Equalibeats insane skills my brother !thanks for this oldschool video brother .very good memories. Years passing and always a Banger💪🔥i'm here to feel the news bro .let's go 💪🔪🔪
Heard this 7-8 years ago. Dude, you motivated me to create/write music. This is so nice to hear sounds from which everything started.
Le Dowques I just showed my girl this video and told her how this was the video that made me want to create music about 10 years ago
@@chuckythetank same here 10 years ago...this dude deserves a plaque..
@@clifjr954 str8 up. Already got 1m views. Well deserved.
I'll be 33 this Sunday & it will make 10 years of me fangirling over this track. I'll never ever stop listening to this.
Thank you! Not sure why people like this video so much. I think it kinda sucks LOL. Thank you tho!
@@Equalibeats seriously? this is the best thing you have on your channel dude stop fronting. Since your still not sure why people like this video, I'll tell you:
-the instrumentation, the live performance, the scratching, the sample, the pleasingly rich frequency bands, the akai mpd 24, FL studio and last but not least...it's a hard ass beat!
@@EqualibeatsStill here. Just turned 39 last month. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
dude,,,saw this years ago...this is still so dope...great work
I heard this track 4 years ago when i fkrst got my mpd24 to find out what i can do with it....and GOD DAMN this guy fucking murdered it.....so fucking dope i still freestyle to it to warm up on my lyrics. This track can never get old....keep the underground and real music movement going homeboy
same here :P i did end up selling the mpd again tho
thuglifie its a classic one
This was the very first video I saw on RUclips when I discovered it back in 2007. I thought of this tune last night that sent me to sleep, I asked myself this morning, "What on earth was that insanely good tune that drifted me off?". I couldnt think, but I was just skimming across my Facebook news feed and read a friends' status that contained the text "time management"... now you know how I got back here! A truly remarkable tune, many respects.
STILL BUMPING THIS IN 2016!!!!!
15 years later and it's still on fire!
I remember watching this as a teen .. Grammy nominated and 6mil+ streams on Spotify .. thanks a lot for the inspiration ✊🏽
This is amazing. First time i saw this video it only had a couple thousand views now you're up to a million! Congrats man. As they say talent recognizes talent. Hope you're still doing you're thing on the boards
11 years later, I'm 24 now instead of 13. Time Management.
Michael Dudeck same here. I brought an Mpd 26 because of this video
same !
This video aged like fine wine.
Even your old thick white keyboard is a vibe.
Hope everything is good today, much love
so many years later and im still coming back to this, so awesome...
12 years later and i'm back here watching this video again March 2020 Time Management Is TIMELESS !!!! This Video is one of the videos that made me want to buy the MPD 24
Still going... 15 years later
It might be set to send MIDI instead of MMC.
Hold dont one of the buttons and hit edit..
If reason accepts MMC then set it to that.
First video I seen on RUclips
I come back to this at least once a year.
This is one of the reasons I purchased an mpd24 and got into music. Can’t believe this video is still up. Thanks man.
2017 and still badass as fuck.
well in this video i did it to the master pitch knob and set the bend to "12".... yeah it effects the other sounds...if you notice after im done scratching the sample the other pads the sounds are dropped an octive. it works best with scratch samples you actually scratched in with real tirntables
I will never forget the first i saw this before youtube is wat it is still 🔥
Inspiring. Love the style.
I was contemplating whether i really needed one of these, but now i see why i do. Its not just the triggering of samples, its the live control of parameters that beats manually (and tediously) adjusting them with a mouse or having to mixdown certain elements separately with a hardware mixer.
It gives you so much more creativity and flexibility and the ability to mix and compose on the fly.
This ages like a fine wine. Inspired me way back in the day and still does.
This is a TRUE EXAMPLE of REAL Hip-Hop! This joint is hot!!!
so many videos on YT now about fancy gear but when they demo how to use it i just sit and back and think, Equilibrium did it better with bare bones hardware but the passion for the genre and sound was all it took to make dope music
i gotta tell you now.. this video right here changed my whole point of view of hip hop (and life)! thank's for that!
12 years gone..
and still have goosebumps when I listen to this beat.....
was 25 now 37
Retrospections
peace
Proof that Its not what you have its how you use what you have! Back 2 cop one of these in 2020! #Respect
haha so old crazy people still come back to this. Thanks bro!
actually its never too late to be "good"...i been doing this stuff for ten years...its all about "progression"...keep at it man.
I'm sold, I'm picking one up this weekend. Dayum! Dude performed right there. best demo, of all demos!
Still come back after a decade.this is one that got me into midis,samples
The video that got me into Beat making. Thank you!
ent listned to it in a year its still absolute magic mate
its a controller for sequencer beat making programs like Reason, FLstudo, Ableton Live. It also works with cubase, logic...pretty much any production software that has midi and VST support.
the FPC also has a channels settings window. assign it to that pitch knob..set how much you want the pitch to be bent next to that knob..it will bend all the pads.
This is also motivating 4 people. it motivates me to manage my time better 4 the sake of my music, which is 4 the sake of my sanity. you got mad skills.
I've watched this vid 100 times, it never gets old! I love your scratching on the mpd..DOPE!!
I’m just here back visiting again from 2007. The video that got me into mixing.
complete and utter perfection. you amazed, you conquered, and you blew everyone away. you my friend, are the master.
probably the best demo I've seen of the MPD. Nice work
Still diggin' this beat in 2023
its assigned to the main pitch in the channel settings window for the FPC kit. i set the bend to the right of the pitch knob to 11 or 12. i ahve 3 samples that i record of myself on the turn table. 1 chirp forward. one chirp backwards..then teh release of the sample. to tap the chips while bending the pitch..then center it to zero for the release sample..like on a turntable.
i can not get over how raw this song iz!!!!
yeah this was more of a performance. but i use the MPD all the time for drums and stabs and choppy bass stabs when actually "making beats" in the studio..its like using an MPC basically.
But it is good. Clean, well organized and pleasing to the ears. I've watched it a few times before and still enjoy this video.
i saw this vid 2 years ago when it probly had 100 veiws and it look at it now... your up there with the best of em in terms of production man, keep doin it
im gonna dust off my sample pad and bump some beats today
2018 and this is still a go-to for akai beats. A+
well in this video (before my mpd32 video) i had it set on loop record..I just played everything up until the point i start the sequencer. I had it set to a four bar loop..with a pattern that was pretty much like what i was playing..so it starts the i start recording in the new elements with loop record mode.
spending time doing something you love until you are successful with it..is what it ment to me. Finding time between the daily grind of working..and working on stuff you love i guess.
n matter how many times i hear his beat i always keep thining its jst....amazing!
such talent man..i will get lke that one day
i ran outta characters to say this...i consider this track right here to be a raw masterpiece. thats good to see that there are over a million hits on this page
11-12 years ?! I can not believe! Oh memories... sweet memories...
13 years later and this still slaps
This is the best MPD24 beat i've seen on youtube so far 5/5
It's been 6 years since I last saw this video. Thanks man so much for helping me out when I first started producing. I remember I asked you about gear and everything and you told me to buy an m-audio firewire solo. I also got the same MPD pad! You were so friendly and I'm really grateful for that. I'm here writing 6 years later and I've learned so much about production, and produced / Mastered so many tracks. I just wanted to say thanks!
dude, over the course of the year i must be responsible for at least 48 - 60 of these views. i never get tired of it and every time i watch it... you know what, i want your skills!
Yo, every time I watch this video I say to myself . . . THIS IS REAL HIP HOP! Keep 'em comin'!
Dude i saw your video 2 years ago and still rocks!! RAD!!
Hey man just want to say that after almost 5 years I still have my MPD24 and still loving it even though Akai has up the ante in controllers. Thanks for posting this vid and hope that Akai broke you off a fat knot for advertising their product, you mos def deserved it. This video still shines to this day.
They never paid me but they did give me the MPD 32 6 months before they dropped it to beta test. I was pretty stoked on that ha. Still have it but I use maschine mk3 as my pad controller now... But I'm selling that because I bought a sp404 MK2 which is a dope computer free hardware sampler beat machine that you can also use as a midi controller. Thanks for the comment man 👊❤️
Never delete this video please
13yrs later and still amazing/badass as fuck. See you in 2 years
The best video on youtube of mpd Capability
Man your sound is so professional. You can tell that your beats alone are very mature, like a real drummer.
this is my favourite ever youtube video. i have just ordered an mpd32, i hope i can achieve something like this. INSPIRING DUDE!!!!!
1 of the best beats i've h heard and your not showing off like most youtube fakes. Good job mate.
cant stop watching this
14 years later, still relevant.
This was one of the craziest vid that i've seen so far. Wicked beats homie.
They are both different kind of. The MPD is made to work with many different beatmaking programs. FL Studio, Reason, Ableton Live, Garage Bange, etc etc etc..however its main purpose is just to input sounds by banging the pads. You can also assign the knobs sliders and buttons to control various effects within your program. The Maschine Is similar however it has its own program designed just for the maschine. Since the program is specifically for it. you have a little more more control.
Me: Ugh
......gotta go to the bank and run a few errands.
RUclips: WAIT........here's a video from your past, check it out!
Me: I miss those days this was 🔥🔥
the best mpd beat on youtube !!!!!!!!!
yo this vid is crazy .. i watched it over a year ago probably anbd i still thinks its mad hot
I remember when this featured on RUclips back in the day!! And I downloaded it when the link was provided it also came on shuffle today number 326 still bumping it!
this vid and the mpd32 one really have inspired me. thanks man! dope beats!!
you can load whatever sounds you want into both Reason and FL...i never mess with the sounds that come with eather. I find my own from old records and chop them up..or i use vintage style VST instruments. Like "lounge lizard", "B4", "Trilogy"..."Atmosphere"...all the native instruments plug ins are dope.
damn, i am listening this every day tilll 2007 and i still think this is the dopest shit i;ve ever heard. Keep on choppin!
I Could Listen To Thiz All Day man.
Awesome Music.
I love this video. This video was the reason why I wanted to get an MPD24. I'm now rocking with the Maschine MK1 and the MPC 2000xl
That's amazing!!!! One of the best MPD 24 beat making videos :D
gotta love RJ
great video man... nice way of showing the composure of how the beat was made
Great,great and once again great !! Realy amazing and this beat... I love it !!
yes. sampling and sequencing software. i use soundforge to record and chop samples and FL studio as my main audio/sequencer program. You can use it with just about any audio program tho..ide suggest. FLstudio, Reason, Ableton Live, GURU..check those ones out.
Man, I remember watching this WAY back. You had a big influence on my desire to make beats. Love this track.
man I have been using FL Studio for almost 4 years now, but still I havent been able to come up with a decent track. When i look at you play, I understand you have the whole track in your mind and you hit the right pad at the right time. When I see you do that, I feel amazed because I can sense the flow already prepared in your head.
I think thats the best thing about artists such as you. With just a few samples and an instrument, you just let out flow and amaze people like me.
you can load whatever samples you want into FL. wav files AIFF files... FL has a built in sampler called "edison where you can record and chop your own samples from old records..or any external source. or you can rip CDs to your computer and chop sounds out of any song. all these drum samples came from old records.
no..in this one i had some prerecorded material..i played it live..then started the loop..and recorded in Loop record mode in Flstudio. In my other video..i was using Flstudio with a Loop pedal VST effect on a mixer track...controlled by 2 of the pads..instead of using a pedal with my feet.
Anytime I start to diss music I'm generally not fond of, I get my hat handed to me. You sir, handed me my hat AND made me eat it. Very nice work! Keep it flowing...
one the best, way more technical than the rest
Still loving this beat.
Nuff respect, fam. That joint is HEAT!! Keep doing ya thing. Peace and Blessings. Stay Up!
The scratching toward the end sold me on buying the mpd 24 and eventually an mpc.lol
p.s. the "pad skratchin" was sweet! can't wait to get one of these, looks like so much fun.
