DJ.Fresh said he doin 7 beats a day!!! Yeah Rite
- Thread starter Fudda
- Start date
It only matter how long it takes him to make them as far as how good they are is concerned. They're not very good to me and I think there is a direct correlation between the fact that so little time is spent on each of them
Lex Luger makes a beat in 20 minutes and most of them are tight, but they are also quite formulaic. Even then, he seems to be the only one that can pull that off and while formulaic those beats are still more complex than the average beat out there.
That beats are done in so little time these days is a major reason why music sucks - no wonder beats from the 90s were so good compared to beats now given that those beats were often created by real musicians that spend a lot of time prefecting them. Yet, I am sure that a lot of the tons of really shitty music out took a lot more than 20 minutes a beat or a day for 7 beats to make and that's an even more serious problem...

making 7 beats in a day is not impossible. a beat can be as simple as a 4 bar loop that has a kick, snare/clap, hihat, baseline and/or melody or just a sample over a drumloop. it only takes a few minutes to make a beat that way and im sure that you will end up w/ good and bad beats but who is to say what someone else might like. personally i like to spend some time on my beats. i like to use new sounds, chord progressions and melodies. i like to mix my beats and arrange them with the hooks, verses, intros and outros. i just make beats as i need to or feel like it and dont really make beats for others but i have a lot of beats that i dont use and i'll let others use them. in the past i have tried to make a lot of beats in a short time but they start sounding repetitive which is alright if you have a lot of clients but since i make em for myself i need a variety and they need to be tight to me.
I could do that if i can drink a 40oz on the job

no its not. all u gotta do is work on the beats simultaneously and if u know the sounds u want and use kits with technology these days u can make a beat in twenty mins or less. im not gonna lie some dj fresh beats are jammin (the ones he did for messy, yuk, smigg) but alot are bullshit too like that new t-nutty one.
