It did. In fact he had two floods. The earliest one destroyed the early albums and they had to be redone. Method Man's "Tical" was different from what was released. The second flood destroyed Inspector Deck's debut album. "Uncontrolled Substance" would've been a different album than what was released had that particular flood didn't happen.
Brethren, I felt a gut punch reading the title. Indeed, a relocation is necessary. They got the MPC & Yamaha (damn). Hopefully, You'll be able to find a suitable replacement. Keep your head up. ✊🏾✌🏾
That MPC lived a better life than most. Not only did you take care of it and cooked up crazy jams, but also through the CZcams you've inspired more people than you could imagine. I've been through periods of lots of gear, and no gear, and creativity always prevails. Keep us updated and inspired!
My soul was crushed back in the late 90s. My irresponsible brother left some of my DJ equipment and ALL of my CDs in his car (hundreds) for reasons unknown, was all stolen and pretty much ended my DJing, sampling, production career and it still kills me inside that I was never able to recoup and carry on my passion for music. People are scummy and don't understand those of us who use music in all aspects of our lives. It can ruin many. Keep your head up man...
I've had to rebuild my studio several times over the last 20 years. I went almost 8yrs without any way to make music and it sucked!! I started back up during quarantine in 2020 buying an interface and a mic with fl studio. Little by little, piece by piece, I was able to build a full home studio with guitars, drums, keyboards, etc....just gotta get what you can when you can until you have everything you need. nothing wrong with buying used gear either.
Had the same happen to me in 2017 Portland, OR. After a night of gigging I ended up giving another DJ homie a ride home. Went in his place to piss, maybe 3 minutes max. Someone had popped my trunk and took all my gear from the car. Of course he lived next to a house with no power or heat that had squatters in it... Anyway he set up a gofund me for me it took just under 3 grand to get all of the same gear that was stolen back. I only missed one gig thanks to my DJ homies and just the general goodwill of folks in PDX, the gig I missed ended up being a benefit gig that raised the last 300 bux. Long story short the B.S. can only hold you back for a little bit. Keep your head up homie!!
Homie, obviously don't know you but from all us beatmakers and producers out here, prayers 🙏 that God restores all that was taken and deals harshly with the culprits. Stay strong and blessed and remember what you said in the beginning of your video "New Beginnings". I believe that your latter will be greater than the former, stay up.
Damn Brah, Us MPC Heads MUST stick together. My 1st was a Renaissance. 3000 must be a REAL love... ❤ Find your 3000, Start a fund, I'll contribute... ✌️
This bothered me. Your vids are always helpful when it comes to getting in the zone for making music and not taking it too serious…. I can tell you really enjoy what you do and it’s great to see. Much respect to you and I’ll be supporting to get you back to the music.
That’s not necessarily true. When ever something is stolen, usually an innocent is blamed or assumed. I know, because countless times in my life I’ve been the one blamed. Amazing, important, relationships to my life were destroyed, & evaporated right before my eyes, along with my mental health. Once people fear you, or are suspicious of you, they almost never hit the undo button. Seriously, like 95% of the time, they never truly change their mind, even when there is later evidence of innocence. I know. It’s nearly ruined my life.
Such a shame, you’re gonna bounce back stronger, take time for yourself…. Thank God you’re in no harm… Peace, Security and prosperity to your new future space. Much thanks for sharing your creative sacred space… Peace up Bro. 👊🏾
Glad to see people supporting! This proves that good vibes are alive and well. Even in a world where it seems scandalous people are constantly trying to get over. You’ll have a new setup in no time and an improved view of who gets close. After I got robbed by a so called friend in this exact situation I would tell myself, “if all it cost was a drum machine to get these type of people out of my life, I’m lucky!”
Eddie! Please don’t sell any of your gear to make up for re-buying your MPC. I’ll chip in and hopefully many others from your channel will do so as well. Whom ever did it might’ve come up but not in fair terms and that’s just not right. Just be patient and wait for us to take care of you as you have done for us in many of your videos. Best of luck my friend and looking forward to your bounce back. ❤
I remember like you, working hard at the time to get my hand on a Ricoh Gr1 (I'm a photographer). I've been robbed 3 month after and they took everything but my negatives. My computer, all my lenses, all my others cameras. Gone. At least I didn't lose all my work. It's tough to start over but it got me even more determination to do. Love your content, it's peace and shared knowledge is so important for people without money or education ressources. Keep up and stay up my friend
That is heartbreaking... i had a (much less expensive) sampler stolen from my space and.. just the violation you feel is sorta overwhelming. I'm gonna donate what I can so you can get up and running as soon as possible. Be sure to take as much time as you need to get your head right, sir.
damn bro! the studio getting hit is the absolute worst! Been in that situation twice actually with computers. Cant imagine dealing with it for hardware cause its all blood sweat n tears with um. Bounce back bro u aint got no choice but to do it!
God bless Brother just remember the story of Job, may you be blessed three times more. You still have your health, your family is alright and things have a way of working out. Take care.
You have a great Channel brotha. Sorry for your loss it’s like loosing a piece of yourself. If you have renters insurance it may be covered. Like others I’d contribute to helping you get another one. You have a great channel. Stay on track even through this adversity.
Damn! Sorry to hear it. I always had this fear. I keep my 3000 and SP-12 in storage because I'm primarily using the MPC-X right now. I'm being real selective about who I bring to my spot. Ya never know. Keep your head up bro. Praying for your strength to get through this.
Totally so sorry to hear this. I had an inside job studio robbery. They got my samplers ... computer speakers...etc i had like all the electribes which especially the sampler one had it's own charm. It's such a brutal specific feeling for us.Seeing your video title brought back those feelings in my gut.Im definitely down to chip in. Its definitely a catalyst.... kinda alchemical transformation moment which sucks and i didn't see it at the time but they left my turntable and records . I eventually got an mpc 500 and 1000 which was whole new era for me. God bless. 🙏❤️✌️
So saddened to hear this news, so sorry this happened to you eddie, you inspire me a lot & I appreciate you heavily, I made a donation and I hope it can help out, be safe
Sup Eddie, I appreciate how you’re handling this. You ain’t lettin the theft and loss of it overshadow the experience you had with it. If I have anything left over from my used gear shopping I’ll send sup’m to your GoFundMe to help replace it.
First time ever seeing your channel, man but we know how sentimental these machines hold and how meditative they can be. Hope everything from here on out is nothing but blessings brother. My advice would be to keep checking eBay, other listing sites and pawn stores in your area.
Wowwww, I’m absolutely gutted for you. I’m so sorry. Sent you a lil something… Your chill, humble demeanor and positive energy have made this channel one of my favorites. Will miss watching you work but hopefully you’ll be back up and rocking in no time. 🫂
Yo man, I’m so sorry to hear this happened to you. I remember the first vid I seen of yours with the Allen & heath quasi mixer you had. Been watching ever since. I can tell that you’re a humble dude and it is disheartening to hear this happened. I will definitely donate. Would like to see you continue your craft and expand the knowledge that you already have. Bless up 🙏🏽
Peace. I’ve only watched a handful of your vids but I have gotten value out of everything I’ve seen. Your outlook and mindful approach to this setback is commendable. I’m headed over to the go fund me now. I’m sure the beat maker community will help accelerate your comeback. Hopefully you’ll be back on the pads soon. Stay up. 👊🏾🫡
Really sorry to hear this. Thats awful. Dont know whats worse losing the physical items or that feeling of being violated snd having to change the way you move.
i send prayers to you brother i’m from oakland as well and it’s just getting crazier and crazier everyday in the city i hope you find peace and bounce back my studio got broken into 8yrs ago it still got me noid and sad.
Yo… sorry this happened to you. I’ve never seen any of your videos this just popped up but, I know the feeling. Sucks!! Stay positive and keep keeping on.
I’m sorry to hear this man, those thieves will get what’s coming to them. At least they can’t take your raw talent and I know you can bounce back from this.
This happened to me in 2003 and I was devastated. I wasn’t nearly as dedicated as you are at that time. I’m terribly sorry to hear this. I’m happy to donate to your cause. Hopefully we can all throw in a bit and get you back to creating!
I have learned a lot from you and your content in the short time I have been subscribed. It's time for Me to pay it forward. Things will get better from here because this is one of those painful cycles of life. The equipment is gone but your Spirit can NEVER be stolen.
My heart brakes for you. A machine like that is part of your soul. I will keep you in my thoughts and hope that another one will find its way to you. 🙏

@@willmcelroy6376 I could be wrong. But it's a private studio in a private residence. How a stranger break in and only take parts of the studio . But like I said I could be wrong.
@@ramsey4630 I’m just saying. Statistically, human beings are more Wrong than right, (we just don’t keep track of how often we’re wrong), and not always, but usually, our first suspicious instincts are wrong. I lost a job, lost several friends, and never received a $3800 pay check I was owed, because the boss was so confident, that it was me who robbed his apt a few weeks after I stayed there. It wasn’t until a year later, they found out it was actually the head of building security/doorman. He was arrested, and confessed to robbing several other apartments in the building, while the residents were out of town. Even when the true culprit was discovered, my old boss, STILL, believes I had something to do with it. He & my former coworkers spread such horrible gossip about me to other people in my industry, that it was hard for me to find a job after, which led to me becoming homeless. The Security gaurd even cleared my name, admitting he did not know me, and STILL, boss hates me, and is partially responsible for turning my friends and co-workers against me. (Some I had known for years). See? He never hit the undo button …in his mind…in his heart. Human beings almost never do that. We mostly march thru our lives…not realizing where we were wrong…or who was hurt because of it.

I'm SO SO sorry to hear about you're misfortune. Man this is horrible! My heart goes out to you that some low life would what to invader your space. Glad to hear your positive vibe. Rise above my friend!
Yo bro my heart goes out to you i have an MPC 3000 i purchased brand new in 1994 and it was my second peice of equipment. It definitely was an inside job the average person couldn't care less about a drum machine; someone who knows the value and importance of that machine…stole it! You mentioned Bruce Forat he's a great dude and he worked on my MPC60. If I'm not mistaken he helped Roger Linn design the MPC3000. Again my apologies- only people who understand the connection one may have with history of a machine like the MPC300 will have empathy. Youll get another one no doubt.
Guaranteed that it’s someone who has been in your studio to begin with that’s how they know what they want to steal!💯 Hope everything ends up on a positive note my brother I know the feeling I been there before!✌🏽
was devastated seeing the thumbnail, I know how spiritually fulfilling it is to have a machine that becomes an extension of yourself and how dark it gets when your tools (and compositions) are stolen! but you will be back up its always in you 🙏🏽
Dude, I am sorry this happened to you man. Your channel and work here is what inspired me to create my channel. Terrible news but I feel like things are going to be really great for you.
Ah, man, I'm so sorry to hear that happened to you. I hope you will get a new set up asap and also wish you strength to move on, brother. Also hope the thives will step on really sharp legos for a long while!!!
This is heartbreaking man! I’m just finishing my studio and that shit is always on my mind. That’s why I got myself cameras and a whole lot of boomsticks
First time on channel bro. Been in it for awhile and amongst all the great things I've done and people I've worked with, I acknowledge the personal relationships built with the tools you create upon. Working to get them, working to learn them, and working to find a sound as you use them are all a process of their very own. Sometimes those processes take years. I've ran 3 studios myself in my time and when someone comes and disrespects the grounds that you hustle upon, it cuts deeply. I'm sorry to hear about your recent events and hope that your new space brings you even more success moving forward. Prayers up - Peace
The people who stole your equipment are low. I lost a lot of equipment and irreplaceable items in the past. It's devastating, but like you mentioned, bouncing back makes you stronger and more resilient. Much success in the future.
This is honestly my first time seeing you or your channel, but I wanted to express my condolences for what happened to you. It happened to me here in LA, not long ago, and I am still trying to replace everything that I lost. At least your insurance is kinda helping you, I had to file a civil claim, and still didn't get enough to even replace my mac pro, let alone all the rest of the gear that I lost, I lost my MPC 5000 then. And when the guys were caught, they were just deported back to their home. Stay strong, keep positive, steel sharpens steel, make sure you learn from this situation and make the necessary changes to prevent this from occurring occurring again.
I've had all my gear stolen in the past so I feel the pain. It's not just gear, it's a part of your soul but you will come out of this better than ever.
I was so down to hear you lost ur mpc, your one of my favourite channels and inspirational beat makers..sad you also lost the yamaha aswel..i like ur vibe on it...hopefully as you said it could be a blessing in disguise ✌️
Damn that fucked up bro. I just posted one of your video on some other sites today. I'll post this too & hopefully get you some more donations. It's the least my broke ass can do. I'm glad you & your family didn't get hurt. Peace
This is absolutely horrible, been through something similar. Hope you get another one soon, it won’t be the same but hopefully another unit you can gel with. Watching from Hong Kong.
Just came across your channel randomly. So sad to hear you got broken into... not the mpc, out of all things😟.. mann I wish you all the best I'm pretty sure your next mpc machine will come faster than you think 😉..
please return this mans machine and equipment back to him
Yes Lord!!!
I'd be happy to contribute to the next MPC! I think RZA said his studio got flooded once. Life's crazy sometimes.
It did. In fact he had two floods. The earliest one destroyed the early albums and they had to be redone. Method Man's "Tical" was different from what was released. The second flood destroyed Inspector Deck's debut album. "Uncontrolled Substance" would've been a different album than what was released had that particular flood didn't happen.
It’s crazy bc Primo’s spot flooded too. Im going to contribute as well. Producers are resilient and need to stick together.
I’m willing to help as well. Bro
QTIP lost records in a house fire
RZA had two floods.

Seriously, like 90% of the time, they never truly change their mind, even when there is later evidence of innocence. I know. It’s nearly ruined my life.
@@willmcelroy6376 I could be wrong. But it's a private studio in a private residence. How a stranger break in and only take parts of the studio . But like I said I could be wrong.
@@ramsey4630 I’m just saying. Statistically, human beings are more Wrong than right, (we just don’t keep track of how often we’re wrong), and not always, but usually, our first suspicious instincts are wrong. I lost a job, lost several friends, and never received a $3800 pay check I was owed, because the boss was so confident, that it was me who robbed his apt a few weeks after I stayed there. It wasn’t until a year later, they found out it was actually the head of building security/doorman. He was arrested, and confessed to robbing several other apartments in the building, while the residents were out of town. Even when the true culprit was discovered, my old boss, STILL, believes I had something to do with it. He & my former coworkers spread such horrible gossip about me to other people in my industry, that it was hard for me to find a job after, which led to me becoming homeless. The Security gaurd even cleared my name, admitting he did not know me, and STILL, boss hates me, and is partially responsible for turning my friends and co-workers against me. (Some I had known for years). See? He never hit the undo button …in his mind…in his heart. Human beings almost never do that. We mostly march thru our lives…not realizing where we were wrong…or who was hurt because of it.

damn I am so sorry to hear that man, couldn't afford much but I chucked a little in, hope you can afford to get it back in time.
I'll go back and watch your MPC 3000 videos
Sorry to hear this 😢 this seems to be happening to a lot of CZcamsrs lately. I hope your equipment gets recovered
That's so messed up, and a lot of us have been in your shoes, most of the time it's an inside job, stay safe my friend
I'm SO SO sorry to hear about you're misfortune. Man this is horrible! My heart goes out to you that some low life would what to invader your space. Glad to hear your positive vibe. Rise above my friend!
Yo bro my heart goes out to you i have an MPC 3000 i purchased brand new in 1994 and it was my second peice of equipment. It definitely was an inside job the average person couldn't care less about a drum machine; someone who knows the value and importance of that machine…stole it!
You mentioned Bruce Forat he's a great dude and he worked on my MPC60. If I'm not mistaken he helped Roger Linn design the MPC3000. Again my apologies- only people who understand the connection one may have with history of a machine like the MPC300 will have empathy. Youll get another one no doubt.
NO!!!!! Sad to hear this man. This world has some horrible humans...smh. Stay positive and hopefully your equipment is found and returned to you.
The people got you right in no time!
Eddie, I'm very sorry this happened. You have supporters all over the world who are rooting for you
Guaranteed that it’s someone who has been in your studio to begin with that’s how they know what they want to steal!💯
Hope everything ends up on a positive note my brother I know the feeling I been there before!✌🏽
was devastated seeing the thumbnail, I know how spiritually fulfilling it is to have a machine that becomes an extension of yourself and how dark it gets when your tools (and compositions) are stolen! but you will be back up its always in you 🙏🏽
So so sorry Eddie to hear this, but you'll come back better and stronger, good men can't be kept down.
sorry to hear what happened man, hope the future looks up for you ASAP, and if theres anything i can do to help out, feel free to reach out 🫡
Dude, I am sorry this happened to you man. Your channel and work here is what inspired me to create my channel. Terrible news but I feel like things are going to be really great for you.
Ah, man, I'm so sorry to hear that happened to you. I hope you will get a new set up asap and also wish you strength to move on, brother. Also hope the thives will step on really sharp legos for a long while!!!
This is heartbreaking man! I’m just finishing my studio and that shit is always on my mind. That’s why I got myself cameras and a whole lot of boomsticks
First time on channel bro. Been in it for awhile and amongst all the great things I've done and people I've worked with, I acknowledge the personal relationships built with the tools you create upon. Working to get them, working to learn them, and working to find a sound as you use them are all a process of their very own. Sometimes those processes take years. I've ran 3 studios myself in my time and when someone comes and disrespects the grounds that you hustle upon, it cuts deeply. I'm sorry to hear about your recent events and hope that your new space brings you even more success moving forward. Prayers up - Peace
The people who stole your equipment are low. I lost a lot of equipment and irreplaceable items in the past. It's devastating, but like you mentioned, bouncing back makes you stronger and more resilient. Much success in the future.
This is honestly my first time seeing you or your channel, but I wanted to express my condolences for what happened to you. It happened to me here in LA, not long ago, and I am still trying to replace everything that I lost. At least your insurance is kinda helping you, I had to file a civil claim, and still didn't get enough to even replace my mac pro, let alone all the rest of the gear that I lost, I lost my MPC 5000 then. And when the guys were caught, they were just deported back to their home. Stay strong, keep positive, steel sharpens steel, make sure you learn from this situation and make the necessary changes to prevent this from occurring occurring again.
I've had all my gear stolen in the past so I feel the pain. It's not just gear, it's a part of your soul but you will come out of this better than ever.
I hope your new studio is even more blessed with beautiful creative vibes and freedom.
Man that sucks, i would donate if i could , i always love your content and the good vibes you share with us, hope u will be back asap
I was so down to hear you lost ur mpc, your one of my favourite channels and inspirational beat makers..sad you also lost the yamaha aswel..i like ur vibe on it...hopefully as you said it could be a blessing in disguise ✌️
Damn that fucked up bro. I just posted one of your video on some other sites today. I'll post this too & hopefully get you some more donations. It's the least my broke ass can do. I'm glad you & your family didn't get hurt. Peace
Damn sorry to hear that homie I hope things get better. This has definitely opened my eyes to who I collaborate with
This is absolutely horrible, been through something similar. Hope you get another one soon, it won’t be the same but hopefully another unit you can gel with. Watching from Hong Kong.
That’s terrible and hope people can club together to help out in some way.
Bro, I feel your pain. My car was broken into and hearing you speak is an absolute fact copy of my mindset. Start over and do better. Best wishes.
Gladly donate. Oakland is tough. Seems like thieving is a way of life up there. ✌️
we rockin w you eddie! Thx for sharing your story..."The greatest thing you can do in this life is to inspire"-Nip
This is heartbreaking brother. We shouldn’t do this too each other and what makes it even worse is it’s people you trust that did it
MPC for life brother. I hope that 3000 gets returned back to you.
Just came across your channel randomly. So sad to hear you got broken into... not the mpc, out of all things😟.. mann I wish you all the best I'm pretty sure your next mpc machine will come faster than you think 😉..
Dang, my bro, my studio was broken into and equipment stolen as well. Very painful and frustrating feeling, wishing you justice and recovery 🙏
Damn Bro Bro, so sorry to see this but I respect how positive you remain. God Bless you and I pray that God's Blessings stay with you
Man I remember when they got me for my chromed out MPC 2000. I feel your pain brother.
The worst feeling! Sorry to hear. God bless
