that first tip was game changing for real! it added so much texture to the beat
Oh yeah, it's such a cool way to fill up the beat in a unique way
@@NavieD Indeed. He also used a similar method to extend the length of certain notes of a sample, especially at the end of a loop.
Yup, that was a dope tip...... it adds something was missing on my beats
@@Dubbudha the most classic example: emc2
The bass that J Dilla would usually use was his Minimoog Voyager bass which is that sub bass he would mostly use but he sometimes would take his sample and filter out the high end to create a sort of bass as well. He also did this with his kick drums which explains that thump when you play a beat of his on a good speaker.
The 90s beats from Dilla were a solid case for quantizing hi hats and snare, but keeping the kick off grid for the most part.
There's only one J Dilla but there's only one you as well
This is true. We are just an amalgamation of what brought us here.

@@24rival13 Shoutout to my man j filth, he a real one
@@all.capsss4687 he certainly is. Greatest disciple of J Dilla
On his 🥜
Dilla used the MPC 3000 at the time it was a very advanced sampler but still extremely limited, his sound Sonics and inspiration came from vinyl records 80 percent of his time was based 9n diggin and going thru tons of records in general he sampled from the root not the fruit he could flip a sample used by hundreds of people to sound unique and give its own texture if you go back and listen to the famous producers of the 80 's , 90 ' s and early 2000's that made classics they all had one thing in common a record room
👌
INDEED MY FRIEND. INDEED👌🏽
I have to admit this was a good breakdown. The main thing I have learned from Dilla is to just feel it. Turn the machine on, turn the quantization off, and go. Definitely unlimited ways to fill the background for sure!! A perfect example to hear this technique is his 'More Secrets' instrumental.
I see dilla, and navie, i click. Peace!
HU! Thanks for showing up all the time to my livestreams my friend
@@NavieD Hey man, glad you noticed✌️✌️✌️
Seems like I'm late to the party, sad to say that I just discovered Navie last night.
@@teoigi3247 youll catch up, and join the discord!
Hey Navie,
Can you please make some vocal mixing and mastering tutorials as well?
I would also be interested in this!👍
Ahhh, the D in Navie D. Stands for Donuts 🍩
Hahah would you say Donuts is your favorite project of his?
i put the d in navie
This is very helpful for a lo-fi producer like me
I actually just got finished writing a script for an upcoming lofi video! So hopefully that helps you even more when it comes out
That first technique is such a small but great way to add that ambiance that finishes a beat. Really Similar to throwing some ocean sounds or kids on the playground way in the background with some filters on it.
For sure, such a smart way to fill up space but unobtrusively
Hey, I would like to mention that I undoubtedly concur with quantizing certain notes and sounds and letting others fall where they may. Your explanation as to why couldn't have been explained better. This works for me as well; to each his own. Thanks! 👊
Fair enough!
Thanks for putting out these tips. Dilla is my biggest inspiration when it comes to beatmaking, and I try to learn as much as I can of the techniques he would use. Honestly I was a bit surprised that you put out a video about Dilla, just because from the previous videos of yours (just seen a couple of things) I deemed that you was more into a contemporary style of beats. Anyway I happy to have been proven wrong. Peace
I listen to it all honestly. I have been listening to hip hop for 25+ years so yeah.
Wow....I’ve been using these techniques for years and didn’t even know.....man being self taught has its quirks 😅
Hahah perhaps you are the next beatmaking genius
Yes being self taught is very rewarding
@@NavieD🧢🐿
selftaught is the best taught
That first tip brother!! Its what made me subscribe. I was always wondering when i would crack that code so thank you
Let me know which producer I should cover next!
Nujabes
Burial 😁
@@alexunderground829 damn burial is crazy. Even though his niche is dubstep from what I know
@@sthoughtsarchive2791 haha yeah. I’m not sure it is Dubstep. But I get lost always with the categorization of electrical music 😁
Dr. Dre
Great video , now we need another video about Dr Dre techniques or DJ Premier, late 90s beats were the best classics !
Oof, Dr Dre would be a hard one for me I think. He was so clean with all of his sound selection and project techniques. And I am a dirtyboy with how I like my beats to sound
J is one of my all time favs , man
You and me both Alexunder
Normally i dont leave a footprint on big pages, but i have to this time because the beat that u used in this video is absolutely amazing! It really sounds like j dilla collabed with you dawg fr. Keep making greatness g!
this video was very informative 👌 and sir, the beats you used as an example was very on point with Dillas late 90s style. Fantastic vol 2 and welcome 2 detroit come to mind. thanks for making this.
Thank you Kurt! I was worried that people would feel that it didn't actually sound like his beats from that era
Coming in 30 minutes early today with the production sauce. Already know this is going to be great! 🔥🤙
🍝 Lets eat up this sauce my friend
@@NavieD Most definitely! BB Challenge here I come. Let's 5 head this! 🧠💪
Navie D is creating Dilla style music in FL Studio. I’ve been looking for someone who could do that and you’ve done it. Plus West Coast G Funk style music? I’m definitely a fan of Navie D now.
His beats are ver simple yet addictive. I hear alot of sample beats but his has an addictive feels for some reason
He was one of a kind
Dilla is God. He humanised his MPC and with good reason why its in a Museum. The way he could do 7 bar loops, take 6/8 song and make a 4/4 signature track is amazing.
Yeah I still scratch my head when I listen to Take Notice. I have no idea where that loop starts and ends.
@@NavieD yeah that track is amazing.
The story about he made the Little Brother beat is the stuff of legends, and they say he would make around 200 beats a week during his peak? That's just insane to think about when you think how 9th wonder's goal is to make 30 a week
Navie 'D' for Damn Awesome! 🔥🔥🔥
In that case, what does BRXD stand for
Hmmm🤔🤔....
MY INSPIRATION IN MAKING BOOM BAP BEATS J DILLA! MY MAN NAVIE D INSPIRING US MORE! LOVE YOU MY MAN!
You will need a midi controller to play it, but the behringer model D is a truly analog desktop clone of the moog model D.
Dilla also sampled songs that were in 3/4 and made them 4/4 by only playing the samples on rows 1&3 after chopping his samples.
Yo nice video as usual bro 👌
But if you are thinking about flipping samples again ..
Think about the mask off sample that used in future song .. i know it's very common one to resample ..
but seein you dealing with sample's inspire me hella 🔥
Keep it up 💪
I would love to do a series like that. Sample reflips are the best
learned a lot from watching your videos, probably more than any other channel
🙏 Glad to be of help Brody!
J Dilla is 1 of the best. He made some classics
I agree whole-heartedly
Been binging your content lately and your channel is a gold mine my friend. Thank you for what you do!
I've been struggling with this for 7 years, let's see
😬 Hopefully this video helped even a little bit
This beat is so good. Love your channel man.
Humble. Respect. Dilla would’ve loved you I’m sure. Good job with this breakdowns.
Great video Navie. I was wondering if you could cover the underground rapper and producer MIKE. The way he chops his samples is pretty interesting. Check out his song "Allstar", which samples Nancy Wilson - If I Ever Lose This Heaven (I think so). If you're up for the challenge, I'd appreciate it 😁
Ooh I will take a look!
GREAT TECHS . I AM A DILLA FAN AND YOU REALLY NAILED THE ISSUES I HAVE BEEN HAVING. .SIMPLE SOLUTIONS . KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. .
Glad I can help Royroy
Very original tips that are not too conventional. Besides that I want to applaud your humbleness! Great video! Thanks
Just came across your channel while searching music vid trust. Props man, your channel is great. A resource like this offers a lot of value to young beat merchants starting out. First class delivery.
Navieeee, glad to See you growin. Hard work will ALWAYS pay Off. You Know that;)
man this beat is just masterpiece
Love it!
I love you 😘
the first tip dope!, filtering and compressing the bass. thanks man
I enjoyed the vid but consider this - many early Roland SP users had no swing on their devices. But they made the beats last. This is in stark contrast with what people do now.
They would make a loop using resample with their melody/bass samples - sometimes over 2 bars but sometimes to 8 depenind how confident they were.
*Then* they would lay the drums over the top of that, mostly unquantized. The drums were playing *to* the samples and not divorced from them. That was extremely important.
What you had was a final product where if you isolated the drums themselves they would sound wildly irregular and jarringly 'kick' back to the beginning of the loop - but with the samples they would still be irregular but 'in time' with them (a lot of sample manipulation like timestretch was pretty primitive).
This practice of tapping out unquantized drums in isolation and laying the samples on top and thinking it's going to make a magical beat... It dont float my boat.
Hey some positive advice. If you brick wall cut like you're doing in both examples, you mess up the harmonics. A better way is program the bass art source and then use a 12 or 24 db shelf.
Ooh did I brick wall in this video? I have a bad habit of doing that at times when I shouldn't
Just discovered your channel and am loving all your videos!!!! Amazing stuff
Thank you Andyboyyyy
That first technique i started using a couple years ago I call em sample hats or sample snares
Hahah that's a good name for them
Much Respect this is dope we are all inspired by Dilla in some way as music producers and creatives.
dont ever stop these videos my friend
👌 I'mma keep going as long as you keep watchin
super dope. preciate this!
No problem big Mark!
Have to say Navie, great content real feel like i am learning the way you present the breakdown / lessons. Thank you sir!
Very nice tricks, thank you🙏🏼
You're welcome young Suisse
@@NavieD 😊
Nice video! I also used and still use the first and mostly the last technique a lot, probably because I grew up in the '90s 😀
No disagreement with these insights! I just bought an elektron digitakt last week. Trying out that DAWless life to begin tracks. Liking it so far. You mess with any drum machines ever?
None of the classic ones. I used to use a Maschine, but it doesn't really fit into my workflow nowadays. I loved that thing though. How about you?
@@NavieD Thanks for responding (really love the channel)! So I like the Digitakt (it can do a lot of cool things), but the workflow in my DAW (I use Live) is faster for sure. I'm sure I will be able to build tracks more quickly over time with the Digitakt, but I agree with you that for my workflow, if I just really need to put something together, it's simply easier to do it within the DAW. My plan is to start things on the Digitakt sometimes, get some audio into Live, and finish tracks there. Recorded in some of my first ideas yesterday!
This was amazing, I'm glad I stumbled on this vid! Subbed
Glad to have you on board my friend
Great as always 🖤👏
Thank you Sunless!
Very nice bro...🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you big Tuch 👌👌👌
From what I understand dilla would have the snare mostly on beat but there's a theory that you can have the kick pretty much do whatever. There's a lot of drummers that have actually written theory on this that you can find on CZcams in which the kick drum can kinda do whatever it wants as long as the snare is on.
Thanks that was really interesting, definitely gonna use that moog bass preset a lot more from now on haha
There are a lot of juicy Moog presets in Omnishere
Limitation was a way to expand his creativity now we have too much way of doing so sometimes its good to turn on only one machine and play no matter what
3:53 New York had been using sine basses for a long time already...
Dude you are a boss and you deserve amillion subs.
😘 What a lovely comment, thank you kuSooooo
Nice beat! You got the groove! Thanks for tips!
You are too kind Dan
amazing tut + that beat you made is amazing as well : D
Good stuff here. I do disagree on the hihat swing, but hey, your beat sounds dope and that's what counts. If you experiment with swing, make sure to use a septuplet swing (would be 57% swing on mpc). 56% is also really subtle and adds a little je-ne-sais-quoi. cheers
Fair enough!
Watching this at work is the move
You next week:
Watching this while standing in the unemployment line is the move
Nice tips, thank you!
Awesome mind sharing bro
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Thank you my friend 🙏🏾
Great video. Thanks!
navie d i love you!!!!
Good tutorial & well explained,keep up :-)
Thank you my friend!
Hey, dope inspiration, is that Retro color which make the sample wobbly??
Sweep was the sustain in your track lol
I use Reels (which is similar to Retro color)
Hahah yeah I just found a random sample for the sustain track. Just happened to be a sweep sample
The sweep of the sp1200
What about a Daringer style video?
😉 It's sitting in my CZcams unpublished videos. Will be coming out within the month probably.
@@NavieD Nice!!!!
@@NavieD Cool, excited for that one
Hey, man... plz do a vid on Kontakt, mapping and sampling and stuff in it 😀
Any chance you’ll put that “sweep “ sound in a kit? 👀
Much respect love the videos
Thank you BernieBen!
navie you rock!
No YOU rock
@@NavieD thank you I'm really glad I found your channel made a dope lofi pattern using your tips
Lofi drum pattern that is
I appreciate the vid... big fan of Dilla love his unique stlye n sound but no one could ever re-create it.
It's like making a video of how Micheal shoots his jumper...lol
Kobe tried but there is only one Micheal and only one Mamba.
Its great to study the concept but i feel we lose our originality trying to sound like our favorites if you understand what im saying.
Nor do I want people to. But analyzing techniques and thinking about how you can fold it into your own production style is how originality can be formed. We are an amalgamation of our influences really.
50k Coming Soon!!!
It's been a long time cominnnnn
You are great, brother!
Dag, thank you young Prince
Really good Bro .......i think when you use brickwall cut on your pro q 3 pur in Linear phase Is a good idea .......thanks for all your content. Sorry foto the english i m italian
Now I know why Mac Miller considered J. Dilla one of his idols
He did a lot of really unique production techniques in his beat. I want to cover some more in another video.
@@NavieD Please do, looking forward to it and kindly cover Mac Miller as well as he's one of those from whom I learnt
Thankyou in advance bud 😇
J Dilla has endless techniques
This is true
great video, but in the end of the day Dilla was Dilla he had a very unique sense of groove, it was off and perfect at the same time, it was kind of like swing but he chopped in and out as he felt.
Didn’t have the tremolo, that’s what I came here to hear. Otherwise perfect, I just came from the same instrumental you inspired this off of. Sounded perfectly similar other than the almost manual sonic shifting sound w/ the pans
bro ur jacked damn
💪 muscle up baby
I watch your vids dude.. good stuff...GOD Bless you...John 3:16.
That first loop sounds like come get it from W2D
Great video very helpful ♥️🔥🙏
Thank you Royroy!
@@NavieD ♥️🔥
Gracias hermano, buenísimo tu contenido!
your amazing bro.
A mixing rap beat for begginers it would be great. I love your content Navie ♥.
Thank you double D! I believe I made a mixing video waaay back. Unfortunately they don't do that well
@@NavieD I found a video of you about mixing trap, but I'm not sure it's the same thing. Or not there much difference in mixing?. I like make rap beats.
Thank you Navie 🙂
Thank YOU for watching Jaoco!
helpful video but please stop skinning cats 🐈
😮 Who is spreading this rumour about me
Skinheads and cats?
Damn what a quality compliment 🥇
@@smellymala3103 what do you know about quality stinky? To bad CZcams only allows “pats on the back” and “everyone gets a trophy” comments or else I’m sure we would all have quality comments.
@@someoneelse6119 well Someone Else, I think that this is a very high quality critique of my ambivalently friendly comment and I can tell by your needy tone that you have not received your participatory award ITT. 🏆 Wearing my oxbloods and yellow laces, skin cat.
Always with dope tutorials bro ! Your channel is growing faster than corona virus ! 👹 💖 🔥
Hahahaaaaa I am excited for some of the upcoming videos. I hope they'll help you guys out
Love this video, I’m genuinely curious, do you run into phase issues with such steep filter curves? I’ve always heard that I should use 18 dB per octave maximum before I start encountering phase issues but have not ever gone above that so I’ve never heard problems with my own curves.
J Dilla is king!
Can't argue with that
What is the most common bass used in boom bap and how to get it?
I'd recommend an upright bass or a fingered jazz bass. You can also sample basses from other songs (which I have a video on)
@@NavieD Thanks I'll check that out 👍
2:50 it's basically a drone ... but okay. you are the "expert".
Word em up
