Love the new setup! Very Spacious & Exciiting

[@mpchead]

It really is! Thanks ✌🏼

[@GrabThoseKeys]

Man the smooth grooves you put together. The room setup looks so nice. Hope you and yours are doing well my guy!

[@mpchead]

Thanks 🙏🏼 all going smooth

[@jazzroom]

Great choice of samples and a sonic blend Marco - really dope athmospheric jazzy cuts 🌊🌊👏👏

[@sanbeizaa]

In Italy we say “questo beat è da bollino blu” which literally translates to “this beat is worth a blue stamp”. This is how “Chiquita” used to market their premium bananas(!) in Italy back in the ‘80s and this expression kind of stuck in the local hip hop community as a synonym of “dope beat” mostly because it was then made famous by early ‘90 Italian hip hop records by acts such as Sangue Misto, Neffa, etc. Thank you for the time travel. Obrigado! ✌🏻

[@mpchead]

Thanks 🙏🏼 I like that saying, good to know

[@mattiaspigaa]

Bella man! Diffondiamo il verbo della dopa nel mondo! 😂

[@galaxyclassvoyager]

Definitely one of the best pieces I’ve seen you put together. THESE are the type of vids I’m looking for when I come to yr channel. Straight inspiration, thank you!

[@xaviersantos6822]

Mega fat, as always ❤

[@mpchead]

Obrigado 🙏🏼

Great Job! Wish I had your digging skills. All the samples fit together nice. Stay Blessed in Portugal 🇵🇹 🙏 4 U

[@Ross_Antonich]

Marlow you rock and so does this beat. I’m firing up my XL now!

[@bonafidebeatz20]

Love the reverb on the snare… that the internal efxs?

[@mpchead]

Yeah that comes from the eb16 sound board installed in the mpc.

[@2dstr0y]

Another dope one

[@bombapart]

This is crazy, man. You and Dilla are blind to me, man. But the voice of the mortals is an Islamic religious education. Please delete it.

[@almightyyotto]

Yo Marlow if you ever want to get rid of one of your MPCs let me know. You have so many I need to take a few off your hands. 😂😂

[@mpchead]

All part of the collection 🙏🏼

[@almightyyotto]

@@mpchead lol I know buddy I’m just teasing. You take this too serious to just let that happen and I respect you a lot for that. And thanks for always motivating us too

Love making beats like this myself one sound off each song / record. Nice work!

[@quinnzender]

Whoa, dope space! New move?

[@mpchead]

Yeah new space for the next year at least

[@CDMESD]

This is dope. It feels like one of my favorite jams from back in the day. I always wanted an MPC xl. Man those drums are knocking. Where can I get those?

[@mpchead]

Thanks 🙏🏼 the drums come from some of my packs I released to Patreon last December

[@Simair78]

@@mpchead you def need to make a drum pack with all those drums from the patreons, would be dope!

[@justletmesigninokthx]

sounds weighty

[@lamonthunt3063]

I own a MPC 2000XL, I won’t ever sell it…. I also own a MPC X… I tried to what your doing… sampling with the MPC 2000XL… I just can’t go back since I bought the MPC X… sampling is so much easier, which I rarely do, but when I do sample records… I sample records with the MPC X, I’m in a whole different space. I don’t worry about the sound… I use Softube everything…

[@mpchead]

It is so much easier, just a different mind set

[@Ink0ne415]

Was waiting on you pull out the XL to get that work in much respect.

[@SKRDmusic]

Damn as an Elektron user i cannot stop craving an old school MPC. Those pads are missed on my OT..

[@mpchead]

The rytm has the pads, I just wish it had more voices.

[@SKRDmusic]

@@mpchead bet, but the pads are stiff as hell. Would be a beast if it had the digitakt slicing as well

[@Harzurner]

And you said the Live is better. Trust me, it is not. The limitations of the XL ooze out your creativity!

[@mpchead]

This is my opinion, you have yours. Still friends ✌🏼

[@bixotti]

That shirt is fire

[@quintinkobel9844]

Where do you get your drums ?

[@WuDeBeUNDERGROUNDRAP]

I love what you do 👍. Great juicy beat 🔥🔥🔥.

[@mpchead]

Thanks for tuning in ✌🏼

[@GurilaMangani]

Mano, não tem nem como contestar, o timbre dessa máquina é muito mais agradável do que das Akais mais novas. Me parece que tem mais peso. Depois de 20 anos fazendo Beats, consegui recentemente uma MPC1000. Ainda preciso revisar ela e descolar uns cartões de memória, mas em breve vou começar uma jornada na MPC. Obrigado pela inspiração, sempre! Abraço! ❤

[@mpchead]

São diferentes um pouco, gostos diferentes. São máquinas intemporais.

[@DiscDigga]

I think 2000xl is really the best tool to learn how to write beats. it is quite simple but it has enough functions. I always said: learn how to make beats on it and you will be able to make beats on everything

[@mpchead]

🔥🔥🔥

[@DJ279V]

The dope stuff continues. Cool, spacious setup too!!

[@mpchead]

Appreciate it!🙏🏼

[@Driveby-tq3ul]

Always love your videos and of course your music too. Got myself a mpc x se about 4weeks and iwant to ask you ,do you have any proplems saving your beats? My mpc gets an internal error message when i try too save on ssd?

[@mpchead]

I don't, never had. Maybe reinstall everything again.

[@Driveby-tq3ul]

Just did it but nothing changed, i think have to send back to get another one😢 thanks for your answer

[@ONEHENDRIX]

I’m surprised you don’t have the 8-D/A Out board for your MPC 2000XL..

[@mpchead]

I have the effects board installed , it helps with all the mixing.

[@ONEHENDRIX]

@@mpcheadWell, I was really asking because I was curious how you are tracking out to a daw. But wow, I really have to get back to my 2000XL because I wasn’t aware the efx board could handle more than 4 filters at a time. Thanks.

[@Johnnyfivekicks]

So dope!!! You’re a big inspiration man!
