Bob James - Hands Down (1982)

sorry for lack of updates, aint really find good shit to flip but now im back with great shit "Bob James - Hands Down" from 1982.

A nice litle set from Bob James -- thanks to a good degree of warmth in the keyboards, which still include Fender Rhodes alongside acoustic piano and some more advanced 80s keys! While other artists of his generation were really schmaltzing things up by this point in time, Bob still keeps things pretty laidback and cool -- mostly using smaller instrumentation on the tracks, and going for a lean mode that retains the best focus on his keyboard lead and solos. Some of the tunes are mellow, but still nice -- and titles include "Shamboozie", "Spunky", "Macumba", "Roberta", "It's Only Me", and "Janus".

Tracklist:
1. Spunky
2. Macumba
3. Shamboozie
4. Janus
5. Roberta
6. It's Only Me

more public domain music

seeing mc random's post i decided to post some more stuff that's public domain.

check out www.musopen.com for a huge collection of public domain classical music. public domain basically means that something has no copyright, patent, etc and is free to be used (in the case of music) as a sample without any royalties. a lot of it might not be easy stuff to work with but nevertheless, there are some gems there.

i like to use the shuffle feature to see what stuff i can find that sounds good. plus the info they give on the people you find are interesting.

more hip hop album samples

hey it's smiley again,

got some more of those hip hop album samples. should have some cool stuff up soon.

sorry about the lack of stuff on here. been caught up with school and such so i don't have much time anymore to do tons of stuff here.

Album Samples!!

hey, sorry about the wait. as i said before, i'm really busy so i've not been able to post up as much. hope some of you are still reading!!!

here are some collections of samples for three albums (graduation, american gangster and fishscale)

the fishscale and american gangster samples were downloaded off XXLMAG so the quality is pretty crap but they're sample-able anyway.

i might upload the donuts samples, just too lazy to find it.

Bobby's Pot O' Soul

sorry about the lack of updates. i just started a new series of sample flip threads on futureproducers. check it here

Tips for the lazy piano player

Running out of ideas when you're trying to make an original beat? Well i got some good solutions that will help you make some dope shit.

TIP #1:
Use Midi Files: to find some, a simple google for "midi files" will suffice, i found this directory of links: http://www.harmony-central.com/MIDI/files.html

After i get some midi files from video games or whatever, i will drag them into fl studio and mess around with different parts to get a new song. Usually i try to not make it really obvious what i sampled. That's why i like finding midi files for random video games.

TIP #2
Use kozong (http://digital.hollmen.dk/?koZong). This is a random chord generator. i usually pick the key, and press create song and you will be given chords for the Verse, Chorus and Bridge. Usually i will then input these chords using the chord feature in the piano roll of FL Studio and then mess around with them sometimes changing the timing, chords, etc to get a good song.


Hope all you "composers" got some good ideas to help make some songs. These are particularly helpful for when you're feeling lazy or just having a creative block.

ps: i think in addition to posting samples and such, i will post tutorial type things like this on occasion.

R&B Hits of The 50's

time to hit you guys with another collection of soul songs. they're not all amazing samples but they're still good for listening. i enjoy it. don't just rape the music. enjoy it too.

enjoy!

please feel free to hit me w/ email (bobhellbringer@gmail.com) if u want a tutorial, help, etc. i'll happily help u out. it's no problem.

My blog & FP

Well the moderators from fp have contacted me and they had a problem with all the samples i was posting on fp without encouraging some other point of the threads than downloading samples. I understand where they're coming from and i'm going to stop posting new blog posts on FP. I'm going to keep my blog in my signature just so people remember the link.

I'm setting up some more updates too. Dont forget to check the blog. I'm working on my drum kits and i'll post up a demo kit sometime soon i guess.

Two R&B Songs i've done recently

i feel bad that i didn't post these here but i forget that people actually read this (i think).

well anyway, i've been working with a talented singer from the UK recently. We've done two songs, one where he's singing and the other he wrote but his friend Jack White sang.

Check them out and tell me what you think:

Jack White - Let Me Prove My Love: http://www.soundclick.com/bands/songInfo.cfm?bandID=503831&songID=5711801

Daniel Cooper - Walking In The Rain: http://www.soundclick.com/bands/songInfo.cfm?bandID=503831&songID=5714742

I got a few more songs in the works with him plus some other songs i've done with other rappers. I remixed a song my friend did (shout out to Dots/Chilla) and i'll post that sometime.

I bet people probably just want sample and don't care about posts like this about songs i'm doing with rappers but whatever. I'm just gonna post whatever on this blog.

I'm thinking about switching over to wordpress because it has more features but i don't want to repost all this and blogspot is easy to use. I might try to make the layout more attractive atleast.
