"drum selection is something you really can't skimp on and it's something you can't really teach" is the realest shit. when i listen to my old beats from 2011 i be a lil salty cuz i had some real decent chops but half the time i was using stock drums bc i ain't know any better. or random, very raw breakbeats without knowing how to mix them.

*DJ PREMIER:* “When Royce was telling me the subject matter, he said he wanted it to be like a bomb as far as his wordplay, his rhymes, and who he is represents a big explosion,” Premier said. “He told me to put a ‘tick’ in it. At the time there was no Serato, so you literally had to find sound effects. I kept a lot of sound effect records, and I took it directly off one of those.”

Premier's drum kits are iconic. Back in the day, when you heard a new cut on the radio, you could instantly recognize his hard hitting kicks and snares with his signature swing timing. And almost all the big names in the 90s worked with him at one point. Moment of Truth was my favorite album when i was a teenager, and I still own the clean edited version on CD so I can listen to the songs just like I remember hearing them on the radio. Check Premo's channel if you haven't yet, he breaks down the history behind his classic beats, he still has everything saved on floppy disks and he is saluting the floppy, plus the Akai samplers and drum machines. So 🔥🔥🔥 keep working at what you love, sista!

Duplicating what was done will NEVER be like the original, but definitely a great way to gain some experience behind creative processes. Personally, I can't listen to any of their stuff b/f I go on my MPC as it messes up my mental (I find myself trying to do what they did at that time and it kills my flow).

Just for anyone interested, I'm pretty much certain that in Premo's original beat that sample you're calling an electric piano is actually not an electric piano, pretty certain it's actually a clavinet. That super funky keyboard instrument Stevie Wonder used a lot that has that plucked sound (because the reeds inside the keyboard actually do literally get plucked when you press the keys down). Technically it is an electric piano because it's amplified just like the fender rhodes and wurlitzer, but when keyboard players refer to the electric piano they most often mean the rhodes and wurlitzer, never heard a clavinet called an electric piano. Anyway, just wanted to clarify that for anyone interested.
