Rhythm Roulette: Mr. Green

In this episode of Rhythm Roulette, Mass Appeal brought Mr. Green out to Green Village Junk shop in Bushwick. Then, we headed back with the New Jersey native to his home studio in Brooklyn. He put the Barbara Streisand, Dr. Shivago, and Henry Mancini wax to the needle, ran some samples through his Mashine, and created a slapper.

[@garnetbey7400]

Yo I really enjoy watching Mr Green do his beatmaking, this cat is one of the most Organic beat bangers in the game. He keeps it simple, and he reminds me to keep it simple... U don't have to have a big crazy looking set up,use what u got,an still make a crazy big project...

[@LoveMeBack]

Even his furniture is organic!

[@MrScoobySnacks23]

[@amazariegos123]

That beat switch is savage

[@tenor-haute-contre]

For me it’s Ski Beatz’ episode

[@ANT1989]

J-DILLA would MURK Rhythm Roulette! RIP DILLA

[@saucy05]

Dude could probably chop up the 9:00 o'clock news broadcast and make some bangin ass beat. I would also pay to see what 9th wonder and Madlib would come up with.

[@AYYYEEEEYOOO]

NO DOUBT HE WOULD SHUT IT DOWN

[@akhiphop_]

I'm convinced that there's a copy of that Doctor Zhivago record in every record store in the world

[@SB-xo2bx]

+AK Hiphop Ha! I'm convinced there's a James Last record in every store.

[@darrinwill1988]

Coming from a fellow producer who uses Maschine I love how every producer so far who has used it does it justice. I always see Akais MPC on here and I cant wait to get mine but Maschine will always get my utmost respect. I cant wait to get my turn at Rhythm Roulette!!

[@guillermobeats]

+1MAVHERE The accuracy

[@PSICK1234ikillallracistrolls]

Lmao.

[@omr5674]

This might be my favorite one yet.

[@Bvtman]

I'm in crown heights brooklyn, let me be apart of this. check me out. peace.

[@TronSoundsUniversal]

For anyone who hasn't seen Mr. Green's 'Live From The Streets' series, do a google search and check that out, too. He goes out with a field recording Microphone and finds sounds or musicians out in the streets and make incredible beats with very little to work with. If you can do that, Rhythm Roulette is like a walk in the park.

[@mateuspena3625]

We need dr dre, premo, rick rock, dj khalil, scott storch, jake one!

[@dhud707]

Rick Rock would be dope.

[@Streetstatusnetwork]

i pay attention to these and the first half of the beat is the best roulette yet

[@ardellroby]

I think its Static,, and !llmind a close 2nd

[@str8frmthacr8]

ardell roby Marco Polo and Black Milk had the WORST samples. lol. I gotta give it to them.

[@freelance2767]

Zeke Lopez id say brenmar. i mean he did terrible with them, but one record HAD ZERO MUSIC!! haha

[@str8frmthacr8]

Freelance well if that's the case then 88 keys wins lol. He had a comedy record and made SOMEWHAT of a hip hop beat. Lol.

[@coshannon]

Take your parka off and stay a beat.

[@Everythingforsalepro]

Hey is time to change this hip hop shit Same old thing that's why this new cats move to trap come yall we got another 30 more years to this hip hop unless some one comes with it may 40 0r 50 years more let's try to beat the rock n roll era and any other music at its peak! HIP HOP FOR EVER mothafuckas

[@MeRiJohnny]

couldn't be more dope...

[@MrStreetballer5Official]

Yo rhythm roulette peep djregireg1 he's a really good producer infusing some oldschool soul music with modern day accapella's he really nice with it peep him sometime.

[@ksper]

djreggiereg1 is one of the realest producers on KZbin. I've exchanged a few emails with him and he's such a sweet dude. Never afraid to give tips, share his knowledge and is always real humble. Not like the other "producers" on KZbin who are real cocky and swear they're too good to share any knowledge. Djreggiereg1 got me into beatmaking man

[@MrStreetballer5Official]

***** Seriously he's a real down to earth guy. Hope they really consider him.

[@mcnasty690]

Where Can this beat be located???!!!!!!

[@beatz1977]

this is embassing! could be a fatal blow to hiphop

[@1majn13]

need alchemist and 9th wonder on this show...FORREAL mr. green is dope tho

[@ardellroby]

True! but the whole Soul Counsel is nice tho

[@1majn13]

you're right

[@flipteezy]

That inspired me

[@sunstruck]

anyone else think its kinda weak when they use drums/instruments from outside the 3 records they picked? I feel they should be forced to make something with the records they picked ALONE. Anyone could do this shit by adding their own drums and bass

[@sunstruck]

that being said mr. green and young zee's album together is one of the best hip hop albums of the past 10 years. Mad respect to this guy. This comment is aimed at a lot of the producers that are playing the RR game in these videos. I like how 45 king got creative and hit the record on the table and recorded that noise (loophole - no pun intended)

[@LAMEHERC1]

god the way he was slapping the shit out of that maschine kinda made me cringe a little. take it easy on your equipment buddy

[@MrCaj2011]

You'd have to use maschine to understand, ever since the 2.0 update i feel like it has lost some sensitivity

[@MetaCitizen]

Look at the size/mass of the pads. www.illuminatedsounds.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/dsc09010.jpg And thats all really high quality rubber. Also they took into consideration when designing Maschine the tons of issues certain models of the MPC's had with horribly faulty sensors under the pads, I would bet that Maschine could take decades of that kind of playing.

[@LAMEHERC1]

yeah those pads look pretty solid

[@0xcryptofamous]

the Machine is durable as fuck lol

[@grimeylad]

he's not your buddy, guy...

[@papaproduction]

this videos are fucken sick mad insight on some of the best producers, keep em coming massappeal

[@0xcryptofamous]

Mr. Green has produced some of my all time avorite beats! Keep it up broo!

[@eppskevin]

love that horn at the beginning. he really had a great deal to work with, goodness..

[@Kentainmb]

Mr. green one of the greatest. Has a similar vibe to little man by atmosphere

[@chopituprecords3004]

Dope we would love to take this challenge !! Please let us kno who to contact !! Respect

[@chatoboy77]

Yeah that was Dope,good selection of samples,& from all 3 records too

[@Dennis_Reynolds_Golden_God]

This is top 3 from the series so far. I don't care what anyone says.

[@reginaldtarirosabeta221]

i can imagine the fugees or lauren hill by herself killing this beat

[@mentaltfladdrig]

Barbara. Harry and Zhivago. Doesnt sound so random when u think about it lol

[@RSSisWAR]

We need to do a Mr. Green part 2.

[@styopaa.z]

Get ALCHEMIST, please!

[@YG163]

Dj Muggs the best!!! Respect from Russia

[@lukaczsteiner8178]

Chilling with a winterjacket in my bedroom is pretty much the least comfortable situation to make beats in. Maybe thats a creativity booster. Ima try it just for fun haha. Love the Einstein painting btw.

[@vancasser4972]

I was so excited about this. It really seemed like a great idea to show case producers talents....But really the edits and the way they jump from a recorded camera mike to a fully mixed sample? fuck. It sucks but cmon.

[@Projekt07]

MF DOOM roulette pls. k thanx.

[@mlao.diff9rent]

I thought I was the only person that uses Maschine🤦🏽‍♂️ glad I’m not alone💯

[@x_july_o]

They gave the man lemons, and he made lemonade.

[@NME_REK]

No disrespect but meh- not sure why heads are saying this the best episode yet- just being realistic -that beat was dead -no life -same hat repeating lifeless sample sound- I mean when you watch large pro or beat miners this is bottom tier in comparison- just my humble 2 cents

[@ArcticMonkeification]

I'll be at a beat all day, and maybe not get much progress. This MF not ever took his coat off!

[@jpetit126]

I tried the same thing with a Barbra Streisand track and ended up making a Babs themed beat tape. Check it out: www.audiomack.com/album/jnfamous/color-me-babs

[@SiHargreaves]

He gets his drums from where? Jivago? (sp). Any one know?

[@djbabyj]

Dope!

[@jaseanthony6222]

Nevermind me, put My cuzin Vanderslice or siege the beat bully on this shit

[@ChiefRxcka]

Green is definitely the type of dude that would get his records from a junk shop rather than a record store lol.

[@mana_beast_beats1114]

This the dude that made "Children Sing" for Pacewon!

[@Blaisebullion]

Henry Mancini is the illest

[@heartbreaktommy20]

Fr

[@OSTeez]

Same records store from Erick Sermon's episode ?

[@LongValleyPoetics]

Green don't dig anymore. He just rips off other producers.

[@Qmayb]

the second beat is fire

[@AyeWalkingOwl]

I have very little interest in watching someone make a beat on a computer.

[@hauntedholiday7060]

Where can I find this beat ? PLEAZE 😥😥

[@Seamo57]

My man Green... Doctor Zhivago!!!!! What??!!!! Crazy Yo! Big ups Yo! BEEN TOO LONG MAN..

[@thChrch]

What has Mr Green Produced? This beat was sick, what’s his other work worth checking?

[@flumee]

Look up children sing with me green and pace won

[@mbabington57]

What genre of music would this be classified as?

[@wormsali]

that Dr Zhavago gots hela cuts on it

[@msnwav]

he got the dopest samples, he could have flipped them a whole lot better in my opinion

[@TheBiran]

i didnt think u didit likte that, mad respect green, ari ari peace n love rasta fari

[@RahimX]

anybody know what speakers are those?

[@Tr0userSnake69]

These are too dope and Green killed it, but you guys HAVE to get Erick Arc Elliott on here. The dude's gonna blow up his beats are getting rediculous

[@definedMF]

You have to somehow get madlib!

[@richwhiteboii2983]

Actually all the sounds in your maschine are samples soo

[@christopher399]

You should get alchemist to come on the show and make a beat! Madlib would be cool as well, but I think the chances of getting Alchemist to come do an episode for your show is a lot greater.

[@SavageLunchboxx]

"Ya know...that's what my goal is. 9 times out of 10 when I make a beat. To try to make something bangin." Only 9 out of 10? Greens a beast 100% of the time.

[@guitarman64100]

Which beat is it that starts playing @ 0:09

[@DOUG-E-BEATZ]

They should be blindfolded before they go into the shop.

[@jaseanthony6222]

Y'll need Jude raw in rhythm roulette!! Lol

[@telepathy90]

only a matter of time before mr green was on this. dope ish !

[@JayYoungMusic519]

This guy needs a SnapBack

[@elohkayee]

Still trying to find old Mr. Green beats. Love how street he is, dude didn't even go to a record store! And for those that don't know, now you do...

[@stathagranak]
