Bout to sponge it up! So insightful and inspiring! Check out my improvised drum and MC work while my buddy plays bass! Keep in mind we don't write songs, we just play them.
AL been in the game 30+ years and is still killing
The King of Sampling 🔥
FACTS!!! A dope producer 👊🏿
@@AulartI don't know about that. Alchemist is definitely dope, but the king of sampling (imo) would be Premier or Dilla.
He's still killin' the music while his former partner in rhyme is killin' the film industry and has a hit show out on Fox that was put together by Tyrin Turner (Menace II Society) and Jamie Foxx.
@@SPAlNKY DJ Premier and J Dilla 🐐
That beat lit. Music is timeless. Vintage equipment is timeless
That bassline is the real sauce in this beat forreal!
It is 🙌
Alc rockin the ASR 10 !
🙌🔥
In 2007, he said he had to get it working which means he hadn’t turned it on in a long time
GOD LEVEL GRIT
These are the sorts of Alchemist beats that I really enjoy.
We feel you
so many classic tunes alc has done; he def a top 10 producer
Benny the Butcher - 5 to 50 (and just to name one of his hardest beats)
*Top 1
This has always been my favorite unreleased Nas song of all time..... Blessings alchemist if I can get a whole album that sounds just like this from you and Nas it will change my life forever.
Bless ui brotha
Crazy thing and I literally just found out myself 10 mins prior to seeing your post is the song isn't unreleased. It's on Alchemist's "The Cutting Room Floor 2" album

That Trition clap mannnnn
So legendary and I hated that clap 😂. Everyone used it.
@@PorchTalkwithLORENZO It is a classic!
Infamously used for Clipse “Grindin’”
Which one kit is that?
@@schvartzniger the Korg Trition keyboard
Al a beast for rocking 16 chops on the ASR 10 without a choke group or mono mode. I could never get myself to use more than 3 or 4 chops on the keys. The MPC spoiled me with that capability once I graduated to one. I love my ASR 10 though.
Oldskool forever baby 🎉 I do my best to recreate the vibes with what I have, much like how the artists back in the day were doing the same thing. There’s so many tools we can use, but I’m almost 100% stock logic ,and use a ton of the legacy sounds. That, and some good ol sampling 🎉
Just got myself an asr10 so to me this is like new technology 😂
@@mic9check i knew exactly what i was buying thank you very much.
Very happy with it, currently exploring the transwaves you can make with it. Sounds excellent just as a synth! Effects are awesome.
Always wanted one finally found a good deal that i could afford.
Not exactly sure what your problem is?!
@@mic9check whats so funny, they sound great, legendary machines.
Best investment in your art you will ever make, don’t let no one talk you out of it
@@kirkstate appreciated 🙏
glad someone knows where its at!
I knew they were great samplers but its actually surprised me how many tricks its got under the hood...
Loving it 😃
It's normal, it's like when you took the training wheels off your bike as a kid 🤣
I remember Alchemist and prodigy in studio making beats on the ASR video
RIP Prodigy forever missed 🙏
Amazing. Been a pleasure to work with the Alc
AL + ASR = God Level 🙏🏽
Definitely yes 🔥
Oh the ASR10, my first workstation/sampler! I loved this machine. I had to sell it under duress..
I" designed it, rhymed it, flow classic
You askin' who am signed with?
The real deal's Ill Will"- Nas
I think I heard this on Off The Cutting Room Floor,I'm glad I bought a copy of that.
Thank you for bringin Uncle Al
Thanks for watching 🙌
Alchemist is the KING of "underground" East Coast beats. I don't think anyone else chops samples as good as this dude does. He's the CHAMPION - the GOAT🐐🥇🏅
Dope!!..Super Simple!...Yes let the Artist finish the building the track!..Nice Frame Work of the Beat!
🙌
love that synth and string combo!!
🙌
how much yall paying this man to reveal his secrets
yeah especially showing how he does his intros. Examples: still feel me, we gonna make it
The secrets are found in the crates. Nothing to see here.
Right this is good inspiration.
Peace to Alchemist and Nas! Tru Masters of the art and thank you for sharing this video! Peace & Blessings🙏🏽
Thank you ❤
I really miss these type of Alc beats
❤
this is soo dope... i always loved this joint.. beat is flames.
Dude is playing the ASR like an instrument! 😄
And he definitely does 🔥
All these type machines are instruments 🙂
wyd with your gear if not play it
It is an instrument. What are you talking about?😂😂😂😂
Layering the snare with a clap is fundamental but very effective 😮
I didn't even pay attention to da song, now I gotta listen to it, that beat is killa.
Loved the ASR
We love it too! 🙌
Thank you for this. Shout out Alchemist. Flipping the ASR
Thanks for watching! 🙌
We literally still sample like this but in FL. Edison into Fruity Slicer. Very simple but effective
beat is insane
It is!
Simple beauty.
I remember buying this mans CD when I was 14 years old first infantry change my life
Just another one of those……..ALC Thing’s!!🔥🔥🐐
Alchemist Mad Scientist on the Music💯💯💯💯💯✊🏽It’s Crazy
🙌
Omg that beat is crazy! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Definitely 🔥
A genius!
he is 🙌
nowadays #1 hiphop production bangers today mane, nasa needs his sounds for alien communication them fools would be here in secs for his sounds
It took 2 days for my asr to come back after jumpstarting that just the other. Day it’s ok now it hadn’t been on for a few months so it needed exercise
The mighty Alchemist 💪🔥
Legend
Also made a beat with that sample a very long time a go
That beat is crazy
It is 🙏
pure qb sound this is my will
Amazing I love this guy
Alchemist is an… Alchemist. 👌
I wish Alc went into the origins of this song since it didn't make any album. It was definitely album material. I kinda wish we were getting Nas +Alchemist instead of Nas+Premo at this point in time.
Still rock mine as well but i will never be as good as he..
Sidenote does anyone have a scsi kit for it that you would like to sell???
More of these !!
You can watch the full Masterclass here: bit.ly/Alchemist_Beatmakingsampling
genius
He is 🙏🏼
Anyone know who services asr10s? Mine is in great condition, just no sound coming out…..I’m looking to get it serviced
AOne ft. Berner - Quarter Mil [Prod. CheezeOnDaSlap] where it originally was sampled 😉
alc is mandatory in my top 5 no question
Larry june would go hard on that track

🙌💟
One of the best
Legendario
Timeless!!
You’ve said it! 🙌
SHOUTS OUT TO MY UNCLE DOING BIG THINGS IM NEXT UP KEEP AN EYE OUT UNC WILL LINK UP SOON

How long is each chapter video for the masterclass?
There are twenty-three chapters, each with a different duration, but they usually range between 5 and 10 minutes! 🙌
Real Dope 🔥
🔥🔥🔥
Very. Cool!
Thanks 🙌
Genius 👑💯
The Sampling King 👑
Dope Thanks!
Thanks for watching!
Sick beat
🔥🔥🔥
dope
"Mic, stand, booth and an ASR; pantyhose from my mama clothes and I lay a bar"
Every time I see an ASR10 EV pops into my head
What a combination Evidence and DJ Premier make!
Evidence is definitely team Ensoniq along with Joey Chavez, RZA, True Master, Bronze Nazareth, Prince Paul, Jake One, Kanye West, El-P, Blockhead and MYSELF amongst a few others.
Nice job.
🙌
Great video, who’s excited for the upcoming alc x mobb deep album? 🔥🔥
Havoc and Al are sure to crush it, RIP Prodigy 🙏
Anyone that makes tracks, when you do that “nose itch” you know you’re cooking up…you can smell when it’s a hit almost, if you know you know
Yo I just put somebody on this song about 2 weeks ago ❤❤❤
YeAh
Triton drums 😎😎😎😎
Dope 🔥
Thank you 🙌🏼😤

ALC strictly HIP HOP
Definitely!
👍
🙌
This the Alc I know
🙌
Mistakes are what makes humans' music beautiful. I don't want perfection in music (same as a good woman). I want to love the flaws. Similarly, I want my guitars to be worn down in the places that weren't done by a relic specialist in the factory; And my jeans' holes to tell the stories they were torn from. These artists are the relics. Ppl say that (insert genre here) is dead, but when is the last time you peeped the scene? When AL was talkin about slowing down the keystrokes to swing the beat the way he wanted, thats the stuff that seperates us from them. I joke with my bass player all the time that we are only ever out of tune with each other when we stop playing! So my prophetic pathetic ass sees real MF will be pitted against the computers, and thats when we will bust out the schwifty style music that resonates with all heartbeats, and is simply just an expression of presence in the moment! Long live the groove
Working on a theory that the reason all hip hop snares have that crack comes from hip hop heads school days mc’ing while there mate bangs out a beat on the desk with a ruler playing the snare 🤔
Dont let them convince u to give up the ingredients to your cooking
That's it!
I miss when producing was this straight forward. Now you literally need a degree😒
Nas made a song for Will Smith?
yes nas has written for will smith, including "getting jiggy wit it"
@@tapedlocks that's why I purchased that single on CD.
4 tracks…..let that sink in…..4 tracks!
This beat wasn’t even properly tracked out most likely 😆
All these years of my own productions I have heard about how important it is to have everything on its own track.
I guess not lol.
A great beat can stand on its own obviously.
I've been making music for many years, so i gotta say, I don't know exactly when he started, but I know a couple of the earliest records he did, and I read he went to NYU to learn recording (possibly), but what I appreciate about his talk is a couple of things. 1- he's an established hiphop producer, yet he doesn't seem to be acting like a $#!@ , he seems more humble and cool to offer advice on producing. 2- he doesn't talk like a hood, hardrock,thug or whatever but More professional and better educated. Sincere thanks
I don't know how old you are, but old people love ignoring the content of the video to focus on random stuff like "thugs" and "hood rats" and I guess most established "hip-hop" producers are "shits" or whatever you censored.
It's not even that you comment is "racist" it's just randomly skewed negative for no reason with an emphasis on black people in just a general sense? Like, you make it sound like a common occurrence, you didn't even mention the track or the techniques. This is what I'm getting from your message
"This very casual white dude who is speaking completely normally is way better than those usual hip-hop hood rats thugs" he isn't even being super professional he sounds relaxed that's why your comment is so weird, it's like your perception is skewed or something
I like truncated parts of that sample which I think he could’ve flipped better - I don’t really love the whole sample
Something about his production doesn’t do it for me. It feels like it should sound good but it doesn’t.
Who is your favorite producer ? 🤔
