damn breh u get down with those beats. i saw u sell beats, thats smart. shyts so easy and its like free money.

if u wanna double your prospective buyers, learn how to chop samples on ableton. i got a producer friend and he makes trap type beats on fl and sampled stuff on ableton and i mix and level on pro tools. its a good hustle if u know where to get the software :mjpls:
:mjpls: i got a few resources
But yea, them sample beats do sell, and nikkas actually buy them full price,they dont lease em, so ur poccets be like :ohlawd:

But at the same time, alot of people dont know them 20 minuteto make , 90-96 bpm dj mustard beats are sellin like hot cakes right now :mjpls:

True story. First beat I sold, was a beat I made for this bytch i went to middle school wit. She asked if i could make her a beat. I said "sure wat kind". She said a pop beat or a mustard beat. So I went with mustard. Made it and sent it to her. She didnt like it, so i sat on it. A couple days later I put the beat on youtube. I bullshyt u not, all I put was "DJ mustard/Tyga/ type beat and within 4 days it got 1,000+ views and someone bought it :laugh:

:whoa:

Real talk tho, all BS aside, everytiem I EQ i feel like it takes away the sound a lil bit, but i still do it anyway, just to clean it up plus so the drums hit harder. O well, ill figure dis shyt out


are you subtracting frequencies or adding them? instead of raising levels, start with lowering them.

for example: bass kick reduce treble, snare, reduce bass, hi's reduce bass. it's easier to add than to take away, keep that in mind.




IN THE MEAN TIME.....

@BrothaZay,
Beat is nice but too generic.
You should start bringing personality into your stuff. It's good to see you can copy known producers and be efficient with fx and transitions but it really lacks something and your beats end up kinda boring. You can cook, you got the good formulas and any trap rapper could spit on it without problems but there's something missing. It's technically good but it's too clean, it's too neat. We could almost picture the 1/4s, 1/8s and 1/16s bricks on your FL sequencer. Bring some dirt in it, some unexpected stuff, some craziness.

For example, @kingdizzy01's version soudns a lot better because the sound is grimy, the sample is kinda messy, the rhythm is faster (and gives more energy to the track) and the hi hats are all over the place but honestly it sounds way better. I know it's not what you intended to do but maybe when you good with the known formulas, you'll head towards your own way.
