DJ.Fresh said he doin 7 beats a day!!! Yeah Rite

[shabangstaff]

fresh can actually play piano, and actually replays shit as well as samples.

 

[8FIVE8]

all the 90 producers where real muscians that played they music out on instruments. while nowdays anybody can make a beat with a cracked version of fruity loops, pro tools, studio one, logic software

yeah man thats great they where multi talented but where r they now? as far as the eastcoast 90s producer i hear that most of them fell off cuz they be gettin sued for all the samples they use. westcoast i dont know. Battlecat is still around i guess. and we all know whats up with Dr Dre.

This is an example of one of those "7 beats a day" productions:

Not talking shit at all because I like 80 percent of Fresh production and I actually BUY Tonite Show CD's but please dont act like dude is a super hero

lol what? That's one of his better beats... complex no, dope yes. That whole album was classic.

As was said above, this is one of the better ones.

But a lot of his beats illustrate what I said above very well precisely because they try to capture the 90s feeling (which is not a bad thing and sometimes they work quite well because of that) and you can immediately tell the difference when they fail to do so, which is quite often.

I agree thats a classic album. If you like that beat, cool, I think it's a filler track simple or not, but one thing that's undeniable is that you can make 7 to ten of those beats a day.

7 Beats a day? That can very much be done in a matter of 11-12 hours with some GREAT quality tracks if you're actually THAT GOOD. Most I've done in a day is 5, all original, completely different sounding, mixed down, etc. Takes some real endurance! Doing more than 8 hours of music work in a day will take a serious toll on your ears.

If he's doing 7 beats a day and 5 out of 7 are simpleton sample kick snare bass hat, he's not doing much work and it shouldn't surprise you that he's doing 7 beats a day. Those don't even take long to mix down and do effects and breakdowns. If I primarily made beats with samples, that would be standard to knock out in a day if I was focused on just making beats. I personally take much longer and do a lot more to each track. As a working producer, if he doesn't have people in the studio on any given day he SHOULD be doing at least 5-6 a day to ensure that he continuously gets his paper.
