THE UNFLIPPABLES (sample exchange thread)

CHANCE RANDOM · Post by **CHANCE RANDOM** » Mon May 06, 2013 4:14 pm

YO! I'm trying to come up with some interesting thread ideas to breathe some more life into the Sound Lab. This is thread number one.

Do you have a sample that no matter what you do, you just can't flip? Or a sample you've flipped but want to see how other beat makers fuck with it? Drop 'em here.

This is a track called Penicillin Penny from a group named Dr. Hook. I think I sampled it at -10% pitch on my table. The guitar riff at the beginning always caught my ear but I've never been able to chop it into anything I like. What can y'all do?

i don't know the only way i hear something is if you did like a old school big daddy kane beat.. i wouldn't try and chop the sample up except maybe the part with the sliding guitar you might be able to do something with that and make more of a wu tang beat.. let's see i'll try and actually do what i described in a bit..

EichTurner · Post by **EichTurner** » Mon May 06, 2013 6:30 pm

yeah this is a rush job i just used the big daddy kane drums for raw matter of fact but you could swap those out for some harder drums with similar feel..

i'm not sure about something more modern sounding.. cool thread idea though .. i got one haha..

this track just has so much energy there's got to be a good sample in it.. it's 3/4 though so it's kinda tricky.. i tried chopping it up to get those low horns but it really wasn't that great.. keep coming back to it though..

I had a lot of free time today, plus I'm broke at the moment. So I made this:

Yeah I took the easy route with that one. I'll be using it some more for sure.

http://limelinx.com/eueea my take on the dr. hook sample

EichTurner · Post by **EichTurner** » Thu May 09, 2013 2:07 am

^^ nice.. yeah i definitely see what your getting at i tried to get some of the crazy vocals on there as well they're singing there ass off..

here's mine put some drums to it yesterday.. http://www.divshare.com/download/24088085-afa

i dont have a rip at the moment but i've been sitting on this 7" for years and have tried to flip it. the horns in the beginning, the bassline etc... never to my satisfaction

EichTurner · Post by **EichTurner** » Wed May 29, 2013 1:38 pm

^^ that's definitely a tricky one as far as my skill set goes cause i'd have a hard time getting around those already prominent drums.. or it would take me a while to figure out how to make them hit harder. i might try to sample the middle part actually the doo doo doo part..

intuition · Post by **intuition** » Mon Jun 24, 2013 1:33 pm

i will probably never remember to return to this thread...but is the Dr. Hook sample what RJD2 flipped for this song "clean living?"

CHANCE RANDOM · Post by **CHANCE RANDOM** » Tue Jun 25, 2013 3:05 am

Nah, RJ sampled a group called Pure Essence for that one. Pretty straight loop jack of it too.

been on here for a while and i don't think i've been in this forum until last week. i guess i never scrolled down far enough... checked out some of the stuff on here and was enjoying more than i expected. i'm not sure why i had such low expectations. the internet in general, perhaps. anyways, just started making beats but i may try to join the next beat battle. i liked the format from what i saw and the beats that were still posted.

i tried to mess with the dr hook song above. needed raps and so i did this, raps and instrumental:

that's Extra dope^^ great ear for the chops! it's weird sometimes when your just starting your at your most creative in someways.. i'd be happy if i made that now though..

Ned Ryerson · Post by **Ned Ryerson** » Tue Jul 09, 2013 9:42 pm

much appreciated. yeah i know what you mean. bought a maschine like 8 months ago and used it ton for a month or two. then i got busy and didn't end up picking it back up until a few weeks ago. today i listened to some of the first stuff i did and the chops are crazy. they're mostly awful, but i like a few of them and i definitely wouldn't think to do em like that now

EichTurner · Post by **EichTurner** » Wed Jul 10, 2013 1:00 am

yeah.. had the same experience.. i think it's cause you'll try anything then and you got something to prove

I've been letting this beat dwell in my cabinet, not really knowing what to do with it, figuring I'll leave it alone and return to it with fresh ears and an initiative to add or change something, never do either of those things, and then just close the session again. So what the hell, hear it is. The moment I played the clip, I started flipping it, and this is more or less the same beat as the draft I started weeks ago.

This right here is super tough, I like it better without hearing Mos wax poetic on it.

thanks man. a friend of mine asked how one would go about rapping on it and that was the first decent acapella i could find that was the same tempo

been meaning to try to flip this for a minute, did you find an mp3 of it or you rip it off youtube? really like the chops at the beginning

Captin Planit · Post by **Captin Planit** » Thu Aug 22, 2013 11:20 am

Ripped it off Youtube. What's the difference these days? Drown it in details, and it's all the same.

Ned Ryerson · Post by **Ned Ryerson** » Thu Aug 22, 2013 11:47 am

yeah i think it depends on what you do with the sample. for the most part you're right, it doesn't make a difference. but i have gotten a slight buzz on some stuff i ripped from youtube. if you use the sample as is or just change the pitch slightly it can sometimes be noticable. or maybe i'm just being paranoid...
