Rhythm Roulette: Hi-Tek | Mass Appeal

[@luisescobar2367]

Everybody wants Premier and Alchemist on RR, but this man right here is up there too.

[@mstrychessboxn3520]

Chris Nichols who tf said that

[@DatTune]

Mstry Chessboxn you Buggin. He is definitely up there

[@WhosmanzYT]

Oh fasho!! Man is a Legend!! Idk if they had Grap Luva on here but I wanna see my man Grap!!

[@andrewleslie8274]

Yes, indeed. Re: Respiration

[@yoosooh_wav]

@@WhosmanzYTGrap is so underrated. One of my favorites.

[@RaheemFlowers]

Nobody is gonna say so I'll say it Hi-Tek needs to be mentioned with the Dillas, Nujabes, Dr. Dre, Premo, Pete Rock, RZA etc.

[@Peace_Productionz]

Tek has a production deal with AFTERMATH!

[@kennethdavis1766]

+telj1 Not necessarily. The producers at Aftermath nowadays get their just due

[@owens113nc]

You never lied !!!!

[@iankingcarter]

UnadulteratedRAShit Yeen lying

[@GoblinGoodfella]

spr95que I disagree. Dre has ghost producers and he gets credit from other's work, the main ones who behind those fat tracks getting their hands dirty and goes to work from sampling, MPC, KEYBOARD etc. Hmmm! *Scott Storch, Mel , Glove Taylor, Daz, DJ Quick, DJ Yells and few others. Dre is a Big industrial Producer but, he never sampled, played a keyboard workstation/instrument or work a Mpc in his whole career.

[@upularFTW]

shoutout to the individuals that make this show, it's not often you find such a great idea so well executed with amazingly talented artists and such a natural vibe. It's dope being able to see how each artist crafts their sound.

[@sagganuts]

+boy jenus neutronoid truth, best channel on yt

[@steelokey]

Straight up!! I hope we get more!

[@lukejamesbgn]

It's nice to see Hi-Tek on this because I've always felt that he's under-rated. That final beat is HEAT!

[@ETwOneE21]

Agreed

[@GTActionstunts]

Yup!

[@x313music]

Yap totally agreed!

[@PlateLive]

yeah he makes some dope vibe beats !!!!! is this the guy who mixing for die antworod tho ?

[@brazycinco5042]

The snare that sounds like a clap he uses on most of his beats is majestic i.e. Reflection Eternal "The Blast"

[@magawooh95]

BODIED.... even the first beat he scrapped was dope

[@DLesMusic]

+Magz FACTS!

[@SleepFan771]

+Magz Hi-Tek may have just become my favorite Rhythm Roulette beatmaker.

[@ransomsmith3815]

+Ocean Sage 9th Wonder still holds the "RR" crown in my book!

[@SleepFan771]

Ransom Smith I loved 9th Wonder's beat, Hi-Tek just made a little classic.

[@AmazingJayB51]

+Magz Yeah, I dug that joint!

[@vlissblisskiss]

lived down the street from his studio for years, always hoped to catch a glimpse of greatness happening but never could lol. he's def one of the top producers of all time

[@Sinosure]

Hi-Tek is the man & doesn't get enough praise as a great producer. The was one of the best in the series in my opinion!

[@leroygreen214]

Mass Appeal y'all been on FIRE lately!Just wanna say thank you and that all of us watching appreciate the work you guys are putting in. Rhythm Roulette is the best thing on KZbin and really it's better than anything on tv for all of us aspiring producers. One Love! 🙌🏾

[@itsrelativ3967]

[@christopherwheeler9462]

He just looked racist. Maybe it was his hairstyle.. idk

[@infinitesimotel]

@Terry Bacon Elvis wasn't White.

[@infinitesimotel]

@Terry Bacon Well FACTS are that he was an israeli, therefore not White. How he is regarded by some demographic doesn't change what he is.

[@AmazingJayB51]

One of my favorite producers, definitely underrated!

[@thatdudebro]

+Jay Brown agree man. top 5.

[@vernybeats]

1:14 Tek’s best beat imo and one of the greatest beats in hip hop

[@Gonzi_Supreme]

His production on that 'Mood' album was some of the best in underground hip hop history....amazing

[@Sandurz]

Man the Rhythm Roulette lineup has been stacked lately. So good. Also Hi-Tek looks like the halfway point between Jordan Peele and Chamillionaire.

[@AkilisMusic]

Dopeness!!!

[@dominickkasza8096]

Man! I've seen a lot of these videos, and Hi-Tek impressed me the most. He clearly knows his craft, and is a true Producer.

[@BIGDO13]

Hi-Tek is the man... been bumpin his work for a long while now.. not always a "busy' producer, but usually provides quality...

[@TheMrPurplePlatypus]

quality over quantity

[@goddamncynicw5906]

This guy made some of the most prolific,dope tracks in hip hop history.Real hip hop heads know.Salute

[@rob3018]

The first best he scrapped was just a warm up and still better than most songs out there! The real beat was fire from the jump!🔥💥🎵 Hi-Tek a beast from day one... Need to see *Pete Rock* up next please!

[@urbannpa]

Thanks for the idea, 66 years old sitting in my favorite chair and came across your video. I have a sh*t load of vinyl ,old cassettes and cd's, I'm going to put my Maschine to good use.

[@akabuca96]

Brandon Burrel never knew that

yeh i was surprised too. you can even try searching it on youtube. you probably won't find a video of Premier making a beat.

Hi-Tek has been one of my all time fav producers. He has a unique style, always really loved the swing of his drums and those choppy bass lines!

[@EmuSp-mb7ty]

That beat from Mood"Karma"! HI-TEK is a LEGEND.

[@ISREHL]

This makes me want to get an MPC

[@lxrdox]

That last beat is fire!

[@_ls6772]

best episode. by far. took the drums from the record. took the ghost from the record. true power. no sharing. just all uninhibited fury.

killed it. most under rated producer of all all time

[@71dhwand]

When he started walking around the studio after he put the sequence together, I do that shit everytime I feel a joint I put together too. Shit was funny as hell !

[@clarktownsend9346]

nice pick for Hi-tek. Karma is one of my favorite beats of all time and that album is by Mood is one of the most criminally slept on LPs ever. that was my introduction to Kweli and J Rawls.

[@mrjuse5470]

+Clark Townsend I got Main Flow from MOOD on two songs on my new album! Drops in 4 weeks! Your right! That Karma beat is one of my fav High Tek beats too

[@michaelmiller2858]

I love the millions of combinations you can come up with in producing beats. I myself use fruityloops and various chor progressions it has. I need to get a beat pad still. Hi Tek is such an amazing producer. Even watching this video, I felt like I was right in the studio (which looks dope asf BTW). Keep up the amazingly crisp work man!

The first beat he was working on was fire!

[@broccolihart1]

My man Tek....he kept me company during the late nineties and early 2000's

Know you dope when you have a banger and go "I'm starting over"... and still make a banger... Props

Track ID for the beat at 1:13?

Too Late by Reflection Eternal

[@ericbarnes8155]

1 of the domestic songs on that album

[@Durrutitv]

3:50 Everybody: That sounds pretty dope Hi-Tek: NOT DOPE ENOUGH

[@bert3163]

SO UNIMPRESSED when I thought he was done - I was thinking "Even I know when I'm forcing it...that's a loop I would have maybe saved, but never did anything with." Suddenly, he was like "Naw...I'm starting over." I was like oh, wait...then he came up with that real ish - I knew immediately, and so did he - you could see his head nodding, and that "real sly crook grin" (MF DOOM) creep over his face, like "Oh, I got one now!". BIG RESPECT to Hi Tek for admitting his first ish was wack, and then coming through with a banger!!!!! That's what makes him a great producer, and me a hobbyist.

[@randybdot]

A LONG TIME FUCKING COMING!!!!

[@biglebauski8842]

4:53 Stuck in my head after the first time I've heard it - sound so familiar... . That's why he's one of my favorite Hip Hop musicians - he creates one of a kind sound.

Had a friend that knew him. I remember the lab I on ravine and central. Got to watch him sit in the corner and mess with beats. Never said a word. Was way was into it!!! Dope

[@HighFlown]

Thank god he started over cuz that second beat KILLED that first one

[@antwanefort]

+High Flown I think on the first beat , he needed more time to clean it up.I bet if he had a week or so. The best would have been fine.

[@makehumanitygreatagain8128]

Both of those beats were all-time classics, to me.

[@nawfsidehtown2927]

Bring the heavy hitters. Do D.J.Quik

I would love to see that!

[@x313music]

This would beeee nice 😁

[@cooldizzle93]

not really a sampler. more live instrumentation

[@illuzeweb]

I don't think Quik would hop on since he's heavy into instrumentation

[@reginaldmontgomery7940]

Quik has actually sampled quite a bit. He adds instrumentation around samples quite a bit as well as a lot of original joints.

[@ponz6565]

Thank you I can watch this fun at home in Japan. Thanks Internet and KZbin❗️❗️
