  • Here is a video that I created showcasing a ton of Todd Edwards samples that I found in my own time ever since around 2017. I've been a pretty big fan of Todd's music since around 2014, but it wasn't until 2017 when I randomly stumbled across the Steely Dan 'Josie' sample that he used in 'Perfect Love.' I've been finding more 'Todd the God' samples ever since! UKG is such an outstanding artform of music.

    As a hip hop beat maker it’s stunning to see this level of sampling in another genre. Watching this video is like being in a classroom. Thank you for all the hard work you put into this. It will be studied.

      Thank you so much! I really appreciate it, I've been planning on making a volume 2 and 3 sometime as I've found several samples since. I believe that finding samples also leads to discoveries of awesome music, not just for sampling, and that's the art and beauty of it

      You know, what’s really crazy, is a few days before the ZIP Disk was revealed, DJPasta showed his mom Jisco Dazz as an example of similar sounding drums to Face to Face. They were seriously right in front of us this whole time 😅

    It hurts my brain trying to figure out how Todd is able to mix all of these samples together to make something completely different. I love all the work you've done with locating his samples. There are a couple samples from his others songs, which I'm pretty sure I've heard before while crate digging, but I need to do more research.

    • @dannyshazam
      @dannyshazam  Před 3 lety +9

      For this video, I put all of the audio files into my DAW, cut out the samples, and compared it to where the sample appears in Todd’s music. In terms of finding the samples, I’d go through many albums and just ended up finding a lot of these by listening in on the textures especially. I’ve found a few more samples ever since I made this video, so I might make a Volume 2 possibly by the end of this year depending. :)

    • @najjanidkwhat
      @najjanidkwhat Před 4 měsíci

      He used to use a drum machine, but advice from someone (I think around 94?) changed his drum style to sampling of drums. Lots of his newer stuff is a mix of sampled drums, drum machines, and sometimes random objects from around the house. I know he’s made a TikTok about this topic too!

    Is it really a sample if you take off so little? I mean, it's basically smaller than a dash of salt. Just manipulating sound.
