They need to make a custom control surface for FL mixer with summing capabilities. It will be dope

I don't even make beats I'm just here because I grew up in the Luger era and know he's the GOAT. His songs and beats still hold up where many don't.

Lex luger the legend. He's such a chill guy I really enjoyed this video. I've heard his beats for years on hit songs , never thought he was actually a really chill person to.

[@o.v.9110]

“Lex Luger type beat” coming from Lex Luger himself! Lol😂

[@jeffreyvsco]

Lex luger was ahead of his time. He literally changed the sound of trap music

"If you can't whistle it, it's not a hit.." Thanks Lex, using this as my new philosophy, finna blow up now, let's goooo 🔥🔥

[@datboirb]

You can't even whistle most his beats lol

[@tha.vagabond3943]

Nah best advice was "stay true to you".. do the thing that you consider music, and don't chase that approval. See ya at the top my boy.. ✊🏾

[@NubtheAce1]

the whistle theory

[@p-k-musicmedia1126]

The only problem is that his sound hasn't grown much over the years but, the early 2010s wouldn't of been nothing without his production. BMF BY RICK ROSS, HARD IN THE PAINT, H.A.M BY JAYZ AND YE, HUSTLE HARD BY ACE HOOD, THAT WAY BY WALE. THOOSE SONGS ARE LEGENDARY.

[@kid5042]

His sound has actually grown a lot. He used his old style for this video his beats sound nothing like this anymore

[@jamesjr2550]

Nah he definitely advanced

[@WELCOMETODEADHAUS]

Can’t forget his work on Cabin fever - Wiz

[@KhemBoBeatZ]

Love to see Southside and Lex together. Missed those day when them two were my inspiration

[@Drugulas]

So cool seeing Lex Luger making content for FL Studio. Absolute legend.

[@jjose100ify]

He went back to his classic sound for this video. Lately he’s been evolving his sound and still getting placements

[@exavierme]

I already trust and appreciate you cause you said the truest statement to me, “I never start with drums.” I have met too many producers and artists who start w/ drums. I never got it, drums give life to a beat. In my mind how can I add drums and life to something that doesn’t have a heart yet. That’s just me! 🙏🏼

[@Llam1nator]

Lex is showcasing the power of a good Father figure without even realizing it. That's badass that his Dad supported him like that!

[@MCCABEWORLD]

Lex Luger was 1 the of the first Trap Beats Producers 🎶

[@dp.301]

Its cool seeing image line make a video with a legend. Would be cool to see them do a video with other producers like Southside

[@BLAUDA]

Big fan of the FLKey content. Would love to see more hands on videos with this MIDI!

[@SwishMajor]

Whenever producers claim that they are the best producer of a particular genre I cringe and roll my eyes, but I will have to agree with Lex Luger, this man pretty much made the trap sound as Iconic as it is today. his sound revolutionized the sound. Lex Luger is a true legend and shout out to him.

[@lillerosin2915]

"i make the best trap beats in the world .." Some of the dumbest crap ive heard all week. Dude's not even on the list ...

Good advice Start with melody Use arpeggiator for high hats Layer kick and 808

Ive never heard Lex Luger sound so articulate. Get that bag bro

[@johnw2984]

FLKey is a godsend. I was hyped when I got mine. It felt like I put my hand through the screen & touch the channel rack. I’ve been using FL for almost three years & it feels good to FINALLY have a MIDI keyboard with FL in mind. It’ll be so dope when Novation makes a 49 key version, 69 key version & 88 key version!

[@Jeffreynelius]

I was a little older than a friend of mine, just by a couple years, but to him Lex was the GOAT. I would always say Zaytoven and wouldn’t really give Alex much credit for what he was doing. One thing I gotta say is he really normalized the chopping of notes for snares and hi hats. It’s very normal now, wasn’t then. Shout out to Lex, I can say now he’s one of the Trap GOATs.

[@dvoarmah5986]

One of the originators of the new trap sound. Since early 2010s 🐐

God bless this man, he has been a huge inspiration in my music journey

[@makarand_music]

Thank you for your words ❤️

[@rapideye85]

I've been using FL since 2005. After watching Lex Luger...I could relate to a lot of what he was saying. It kind of makes me think I shouldn't have given up on making beats.

[@akogunkelvin1476]

Just started making beats. I'd like to know why you quit if you don't my asking.

[@mrreggiej85]

Gotta love the fact he called it a lex luger type beat

[@Deboe37]

I'm in my 50's I've been a FL fan since 97 and Lex Luger fan since 2012 when I felt I needed to get away from Boom-Bap to Trap Loyaltie and were two first to give free sample packs and preset plugins they also were the first to do Trap Tutorial back when FL only had the UK tutorial on how to use Fruity Loops back when MTV Generator was the first DAW on the PlayStation

[@Juicerosemusic]

I’m the same way. Melody is ALWAYS first. 💯🎹

[@HazyJ28]

I'm probably Trap music's biggest vocal opponent, but I enjoyed this video. Thanks Image-Line. Much respect to Lex as well, even though I don't like the Genre.

Lex was basically the face of Fl Studio Trap for a hot minute

[@BeatsWithKev]

I still listen to "BMF" and "Loaded" to this day. I think he might have even made a beat using that old Blake Reay "Nowhere Near" track somewhere on the web.

[@_CharlieHarper]

Extremely inspirational !!! This should be one of the basic lessons in every musician's life ... and I mean it.

[@ToT_music]

I do not want to upset anyone, but in my opinion FL Studio is the most convenient program for working with beats and music in general. It is improving rapidly and even those who use other programs are secretly working in fl studio. Soon all the famous guys will drop their masks and admit it :))

[@williamwilkinson4756]

Man Lex I was hoping you’d come with your signature horns. Hard in Da Paint is the best beat I’ve ever heard to this day.

[@2KCustomerService]

Hard in the paint at the time was revolutionary because nobody was doing their percussions like lex. Nobody was doing the octave change at the time either lol. Crazy that I started making beats at 15 and this dude only a year older than me.

[@qtippz]

What??? Lex got his sound from Shawty Redd and D. Rich. They did the exact same things years before him. Even Lex will tell you that. This is no hate to Lex.

[@2KCustomerService]

@@qtippz Im not disagreeing with that at all. Shawty redd and d rich are the ogs of the genre. Every producer/beat maker has their influences but that octave change was signature to lex. Maybe my memory is bad but lex popularized those types of hi hat patterns.

[@qtippz]

@@2KCustomerService octave change? You mean the pitch shift that usually happened? That didn't originate from Lex at all. Shawty redd started that on Jeezy's "J.E.E.Z.Y" song and then D. Rich used that as a signature for his beats. Go listen to "Don Doda" by Rich boy or "News Paper On the Floor" by Yo Gotti. Also Shawty Redd popularized the hihat rolls as well. All of these trap producers got their style from Redd and D. Rich.

[@2KCustomerService]

@@qtippz all true. Can’t argue with anything you said but you still got to give him credit for at least popularizing it.

[@kid5042]

@@qtippz Lex style was different from Shawty Redd’s and D Rich , Shawty Redd styles were more or orchestral and up tone. Lex beats were dark used different high levels of percussion and was Dark. Lex drums were more 36 Mafia based. But both Lex and Shawty Redds style come from 36 mafia / Memphis influence
