Hey what's up MPC Forums! Got a new tape, these are my newest tracks. Sequenced on the MPC 1000 with effects from the SP 505, sampled from vinyl records. If you dig it, you can follow me on Soundcloud & I'm @djhector.dig on IG Hope you like what you hear!

planning a trip to Toronto in april, was wondering if anyone had any record shops to recommend? listening station and staff chill enough to let you dig and needle drop is essential, looking mainly for jazz & prog rock

Hey what's up STBB! Got a new tape for you. I was planning on sending this to all my favourite DJ's and underground hip hop labels and I thought why not post it for people to hear. I'd like to say, this is not a finished project, this is just a few tracks to show range. All produced on the MPC...

Here it is! Hope you enjoy hearing this http://okjoy.bandcamp.com

Whats up STBB! I posted about this project a while back, the delay was in having it properly mixed. I'm glad to say that it's finally ready, watch for it on my Bandcamp and streaming platforms July 21st. This track is called Treehouse, which is also the name of my home studio. I'd describe it...

What's up STBB? Just wanted to let you know about this new tape of mine. all the tracks are done, just having it mixed. made from Soul, Jazz and Rock. House music made with a Hip Hop sensibility. hoping to have this ready by July.

Anyone else participate in the nautilus beat battle? I don't usually like to work with well known samples like this but it turned out decent. If anyone else competed in this battle, feel free to post your entry here

Wasn't planning on participating, just barely made it in with this Edit: Damn i just read the rules, if possible can I have the first jam as the entry and the second as a non entry?

Whats up STBB, Trying to do some research on this subject but thought some of the people who post here might have some insight as to how to go about this. If anyone has any tips about how to contact labels or artists with beats they might like, lemme know.

What's up STBB, Got 2 more beats from the same project as last time. First one is a tribute to the SP 1200, I don't own one but I think it's the coolest drum machine. Limited myself to 10 seconds of sampling time in the 1K, and made use of the Lo Fi Processor in the SP 505, prolly my fav...

What's up STBB? Got 2 new beats for you. Well, not exactly new, they're from 2014. From a beat tape that no longer sounds good to me in entirety but still got a few jams on there I want people to hear, so here's the first 2. Hope you enjoy hearing these! Terminator Tribute: Neo Soul:

Haven't posted in a while but wanted to share these. Both sampled and unquantized. Sequenced on the MPC 1000 with effects from the SP-505.

whats up stbb. just wondering if anyone has any recommendations for cool studio lighting gadgets? like a lava lamp sorta thing or spinning led bulbs. I just bought an led bulb similar to this one but yeah looking for cool lighting to inspire while making beats

Thanks for the kind words Waxramble! Here you go, extended version for download. It's great how you and Joa both picked the non obvious songs as your favs from this

Thanks Waxramble! So here it is people, Typewriter Beats. The concept is just the drum machine as a typewriter, typing up sampled messages and sending them off into the world. This time around Hashbrown and I collaborated on the album art, but the bird pic was still taken by my Dad as usual...
