I love the struggle! (Beat making + sampling on MPC X SE)

I'm live on YT every Tuesday!
This beat making session almost went completely south but I managed to fix it just before finishing this video! Being creative is supposed to be a struggle sometimes and even though I worked on this track for five hours on my last live stream... I made a bunch of mistakes that needed to be addressed.
However... I think I rescued it and I'm happy I trusted the process and kept working on the track even though it felt impossible at times.
Love ya!

Just to be clear... I really like how this beat came out after all! The first part of the video is how the track is supposed to be and I'm really happy about it :D

what is your turntable, good sair???

[@puresoundstudios]

So good to see the Traktor S4 Mk3 still in the inventory. Love your channel man.

[@AccurateBeats]

Thank you! Yeah, the S4 is great! The crossfader on my z2 broke a while back and this is a temporary solution until I make up my mind about this.

[@deejaymkultra]

Love this video man!

[@cresshead]

whatever happens in a stream it's it's great to see and watch how it goes great or indeed goes south!

[@AccurateBeats]

Thanks! Yeah, that's the idea I guess :D It's always a bit of a risk to jump into my streams :D

[@wiggesobk]

Turned out super nice!🔥🔥🔥

Top!!!

[@justin_704]

Yoooo. This was dope to see live. Nice to hear it now.

[@AccurateBeats]

Thanks for checking in! I think it was worth the effort! :D

[@justin_704]

@@AccurateBeats hell Ya man. Just like you said during the stream... Sometimes you get good stuff sometimes you don't. That's the process.

[@harbourphotography2152]

Really enjoyed this stream. Still think you should do the occasional sample battle for fun 😉 Maybe do a similar thing where you make a track, then throw up the sample for us to mess with and then check them out briefly on a future stream

[@realjravage2871]

Dope track accurate 😁

[@AccurateBeats]

Thanks a lot!

[@pachacache5186]

ohhh yeah

[@apartcrue]

great Accurate! What phone app did you use to search for the sample? find the intonation?

[@jimshannononsounds]

Always epic content Accurate. Your on Tuesday nights now? I'm dialed in TC

[@AccurateBeats]

Thanks! Yeah, I'm live within 24h :D Love to hear it!

[@JayInTheLab1989]

This channel is amazing 👌🏻 can anyone help me please? every time I chop drum breaks on the mpc live 2, then play the kick snare and hats in, I just get massive amounts of background noise from the original sample but like 3x as bad, like it’s all building up. Literally can’t use them then, I’ve tried filtering it out, using envelopes which can work but then makes the drums sound weak. I’ve gone through lots of tutorials and it doesn’t seem a problem to anyone else. It’s driving me around the bend as I can only use a drum break without chopping it. I’m new to the mpc’s as you can probably tell haha thanks 👍🏻

[@greganikin7003]

Made a perfect beat and started adding unnecessary elements, thinking about drums pitch. Just turn your speakers on and feel the vibe and stop thinking, start feeling it’s that simple. Thinking is for science, feeling is for art!

[@fakshen1973]

Sometimes the kid comes out ugly... reassured to see that it happens to everyone, even the people I admire.

[@AccurateBeats]

It surely does! I’m not mad about the outcome here though. The way it plays in the start of the video is how it’s supposed to be. Not my best work but way better than what the live stream viewers had to deal with 😀

[@fakshen1973]

@@AccurateBeats No worries at all. You can keep making the same beat over and over and most people would be happy. But that's not you.

[@GooSe763]

Where can i get your music my friend

[@AccurateBeats]

A have a few projects on Spotify... Other than that, I guess KZbin is the best place (Yeah, I need to release more stuff)

[@MasaTheSlayer]

lolled at Katri Helena. Yes, she is finnish. Stuff that my mom used to listen a lot. :D

[@MasaTheSlayer]

Have to also add that you got good samples from there. Have been also thinking to sample finnish iskelmä, but at least yet haven't done it.

[@AccurateBeats]

That’s the thing! Great samples can be found anywhere! Even the worst records can surprise sometime!

[@MasaTheSlayer]

@@AccurateBeats True! This kinda finnish music far from my favorites, but there's also some finnish melancholy that also speaks to me. And that's enough reason to start dig these too. Lately have been sampling some japanese movie soundtracks from 70's.

[@fingaskillz]

you should scratch more in your videos...like it✌🏻

[@AccurateBeats]

Lol! Thanks for saying so! I hear the opposite sometimes too :D

[@fingaskillz]

😂 it's a question of taste. Anyhow i like different styles
