DJ Battlecat Inspired | How to Westcoast G Funk

[@smiauu]

this shows how insanely underrated battlecat is

[@Verysickbeats]

that's why i had to do this vid

[@CantTellYou]

@@Verysickbeats you’re super talented with a ton of gear knowledge so idk of anyone better to ask this: Do you know how Battlecat made those wild eerie lead synths on tracks like “Tales From The Hood” and Ras Kass “Marinatin”??? Or any VSTs, or methods that we can achieve them with the technology at our hands today?

[@johnnycage8327]

G-funk is my favourite style of hiphop. The sound fit so well with the west coast sunshine, palm trees, lowriders and chill vibe.

[@twcyangon119]

Same here…definitely my favourite style to listen to AND make 💯

[@AaronCatling]

My main music is djent , metal music. But thanks to my bro I love g funk . He likes all the old school rappers that no one in the UK knows like c-bo , spice one, mc8 brother lynch all the Westcoast beats are gold . Its a shame its all mumble jumble now days . I'd love to make these kind of beats . I just need to crack the bass and mix

I swear Filt and I are the only people on earth that still have the MPC500 lol.. But glad it was my 1st one because after learning to chop with numbers, visual waves were a dream lol.. I was just using it standalone with no software at the time other than importing the “complete” beats lol.. can’t lie it was hard as hell to learn that why haha..things get much easier when You’re better equipped.. Things are wayyy easier for DJ’s and producers/beat makers nowadays…….. also, I’ve never used Serato or traktor or any of that.. I still think it’s important to learn how to mix etc without that stuff 1St. I think you’ll be a much better DJ not to mention much more respected if you can actually spin with just a mixer and vinyl and things like that… just imho.. ✌️music is life!! Shout out Toronto, and I’m working with the MPC Renaissance and studio.. I still prefer standalone and glad it went back that way after the software based way.. it’s better to at least have the option of standalone again imho.. not hating anyways, I’m just old 🤣✌️

And another one. Who's next/ Goldie Loc? with the off/on sync beats. I have been seeing the Micro Korg (vocoder) for sale a lot since the gas prices went up. Just from using it on some of your projects how do you like it compared to VST synths?

[@Verysickbeats]

I love the microkorg very versatile. only thing i don't like is the keybed which is why i use it with a controller

[@ilirademi2507]
