Rhythm Roulette: DJ Dahi (Serato Edition) | Mass Appeal

[@SixfeetStacks]

If you don't know him yet, Gene Brown is basically the go-to person for producers when it comes to finding specific samples. He's been hired by Premier, Q-Tip, Kanye and many others. Picking records randomly out of his van for Rhythm Roulette is basically a walk in the park. Man's a legend. Not like we have anything to worry about when it comes to Dahi either.

[@MrStaano]

What do you mean dj premier hired him ?? For what ??

[@2013_Shox]

MrStaano To find samples

[@MrStaano]

I never heard of premier or other great producers like pete rock etc... hire people to do their digging.

[@djpioneer937]

They do. You would have to, had been in/around the industry at the time to know this. A lot of stuff has occurred in hip hop that hasn't hit the internet.

[@Raphie009]

True. Anything before like...2005 really is shrouded in mystery.

[@mathres17]

That "super rare brazilian joint" is Secos e Molhados, a legendary proto-brazilian rock band from the 70s.The album sampled is "A Volta de Secos & Molhados" made in 1977.

[@NOTURPLUGBRO]

you are a freakin DON... thank you

[@sanyatesGRIA]

Matheus Resende THANK YOU 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@tacomampc7034]

Matheus Resende not all heroes wear capes 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@ronan3884]

Cheers! Came to the comments looking for this.

[@packers45678]

A year later, and I love you. Thank you.

[@Min-kp7ei]

one of the most talented producer in hiphop right now.

[@saidzuniga8479]

...and one of the most creative. Dacoury is on fire!

[@sp-uf6tx]

agreed

[@Backinthedase]

this was fire right?! I knew that first one was special would love to hear a more final instrumental

[@sloMotion1937]

of course. aspesially with loop drums pffff

[@KimarKurosaski]

Dahi is so criminally slept on

[@Billyboy2288]

how? he produces some of the hottest songs out. I feel like anyone who cares remotely bout producing knows this guy.

[@KimarKurosaski]

bmck3nney maybe but when I get into talks about producers and musical influences he rarely comes up. He's a name not many know but students of the game know.

[@xasos295]

agreed, his name never even comes up when talking people like kanye, 9th wonder, madlib, but should more. dude is a legend

[@NOTURPLUGBRO]

his name doesnt come up because he's a young nigga but real heads keeps Dahi's name in the mix

[@PuertoRicanPretto]

bmck3nney it depends on your influences etc. For example I’ve heard his name and know of some of his records but just informed myself even more today hence me watching the video. But this man’s a beast. From Kendrick to Rihanna childish etc due vrazy

[@121von]

bro he literally went thru 6 or 7 ways to flip that 2nd sample till he felt comfortable... and all were bangers... My God he's gifted...

[@SPINNINGMYWHEELS777]

that's just what you do when you have a sample loaded up with your favorite control at the helm.. you've never done this before - it's not special it's rather easy - as DJ Mark the 45 King would say.. it's just luck to even be noticed in this scene.

[@pontusblom8958]

You guys should do a vinyl collection with all the songs made from Rhythm Roulette! Would totally buy.

[@Righteousprd]

word up! This needs to happen

[@tyreekmls]

yoooo smart!

[@BigBuddyNoc]

Even a spotify playlist would be dope

[@siyagee1000]

The mission to clear that enire project would be crazy tho

[@SPINNINGMYWHEELS777]

if they got biz markie to sign them they could have had a big party

[@RaySwank225]

Ill take dahi over metro any day

[@kyletwitty6638]

Ray Swank easy

[@CarlitosWay1]

[@hypochondriac1]

Nice cool

[@miltchamberlain6218]

2 completely different styles of producing. I'll take them BOTH. Metro is just as dope

[@RaySwank225]

@@miltchamberlain6218 but you can have preference thou

[@myartwork907]

even tho this was mostly promotion for serato it was still a good episode. his creative process is tight

[@RayOrchestra]

Drug Dealers Anonymous is a God Level beat!

[@dukewonder4097]

[@NewTownKing01]

I love comin in from work and seeing new rhythm roulette!!

[@brandenapexo604]

Every track this man produces is complete fire, how is he not more recognized.

[@SPINNINGMYWHEELS777]

it sounded rather robotic clashing key even

[@lindawalters6800]

Mass Appeal, you need to get three or something producers to sample the same 3 records and then get them to show what they have at the end.... And get MF Doom on here already

[@Saientific]

i like that

[@charlierobertson8910]

Someone shared the same idea on the 9th wonder rhythm roulette. They seriously need to do this

[@cmooreHD]

Wow this idea is Gold! Get on this mass !

[@LAMEHERC1]

doom just loops shit

[@Kicksareus919]

linda walters lmao I agree. I bet they already have the episode they just bs dropping it or mf doesn’t want his secrets reveled.

[@PuertoRicanPretto]

When he looks up in frustration @4:24 I felt that 😭 Thought I was The only one. You start to see these videos and realize you aren’t the only producer that goes through certain motions 😂😂

[@donm1719]

All the time lol

[@sihaama]

best series on youtube

[@frogonaut5586]

So much creativity in this guys mind, can really feel it flowing through his work.

[@brayzbeats]

He feels this. Great session here you've captured.

[@herebefour9707]

Hands down the best producer of this generation

[@JokerCrazyBeatz]

Motivation and Inspiration . That man drums go crazy ! Opened my DAW while watching

[@rodrigopellizzaro944]

"Secos & Molhados" it's the name of the album n band, for the record. It's not a "rare" album, it's pretty popular and recognized as one of the best brazilian records of all time. Nice flip on that, Dahi is a huge talent.

[@alexandregrunwald869]

eu ia dizer isso hahah

[@revolveronvinyl]

thanks man. this record is incredible!!!

[@lucianmarcos5]

boa man hahah

[@ACOrtizTV]

Could still be rare on vinyl!

[@rodrigopellizzaro944]

TheTruth Maybe in the US, not here lol. I was kinda mad they doesn't even mentioned the artist when it has a lot of importance in the history of brazilian music.

[@LanceLester]

I didn't think this was going to turn out to be anything more than a Serato pitch for 15 minutes. Turned out to be excellent. 👍🏼

[@SPINNINGMYWHEELS777]

Yeah not bad but I did want to know why they chose that particular piece of software - as it doesn't appear to be anything special and he seemed to be a bit stumped at first there was a big edit from him staring at the screen like 'what do I do now'..maybe that was the first day he used it.

[@j.w.9122]

oh man I am so glad mass appeal called DJ Dahi back for seconds! His talent level is unparalleled!!

[@LouisDeezle]

10:11 Lawddddd! Wish he used those drums, so sick regardless tho.

[@danielricardo5350]

Estou assistindo aqui do Brasil, foi uma surpresa e tanto quando começou a tocar Rosa de Hiroshima do Ney Matogrosso. Nessas horas sempre me vem a confirmação do quão vasto é o nosso berço cultural, e o quão respeita é nossa música lá fora. Trabalho incrível, parabéns.

[@tacomampc7034]

I'm all for getting new producers on this series but multiple episodes from previously featured producers is just fine with me as well. I'll never get tired of this series

[@pontusblom8958]

Wow, this episode is among the best ones so far! So is DJ Dahi!! And I haven't even heard about him before... Shame.

[@mikethevicious]

Pontus Blom you've heard his songs jist didn't know

[@pontusblom8958]

I'm sure has!

[@R1pTheJacka]

So I've been trying to see all the different instruments/plugins/effects that Dahi's using other than Serato Sample and here's what I found so far..let me know what else I may have missed: -Glue Compressor on Serato Sample - 4:29 -Cthulhu by Xfer midi notes being routed to Keyscape by Spectrasonics - 5:04 -Arturia CS-80 V2 - 5:35 -Trilian by Spectrasonics - 8:34 -Drum Loops from Splice - 9:33 -Also not fully sure of what it's called, but I think he just has an intstrument rack with chain selector that allows him to quickly navigate through all his drum loops - 11:03

[@oooomar]

DO NOT SLEEP ON THE CS80

[@yasin1amir]

Super talented guy. Wish he continued on the beat at 10:00

[@Head_Turnah]

He's becoming one of my favorite producers.

[@goodmusiconly5603]

I remember how I was tripping when I found out dahi made the beat of kendricks money trees. How do I get to this level damnit.

[@nanayawberko3212]

Your username is the answer

[@user-wj5vp9ew5u]

how he approaches samples is insane, true creator.

[@josephjohnchombo5127]

damn how many beats did he made

[@afrosymphony8207]

Hands down my favorite new generation producer, he reminds me of timbaland not in style but maybe kinda in ideology, they always make something different every fucking time, its like everytime they make a beat they never reuse anything that sounds similar to what they made before, its like back to the scratch board start from scratch every single time.

[@Lorcsss]

7:05 can't wait for Dahi's debut singer/songwriter album.

[@5uckets348]

Such a chill vibe

[@pyeatt4368]

I met Gene Brown the other day. He’s a genius!

[@treshaunjames7700]

I really wish we could hear what he'd have to say on his own beats, cause they FIRE

[@agthaog1986]

dahi probably my fav producer of the last couple of years. hes beats transcend what we consider hip-hop and he has sum incredible hi-hat rolls
