Built off of “stock” hip-hop drum samples
It’s obviously going to be almost impossible for you to create really groundbreaking music that gets you noticed as a producer in the ultracompetitive world of hip-hop if you’re running stock hip-hop drum samples just like everyone else is.
At the same time, most people just don’t have the money for recording their own drum samples in a studio (or the time), so they are forced to use stock drum sample kits.
So long as you maximize your drum kit and really tinker with the sound you’re getting out of it – remixing and chopping up different elements of the samples – you’ll be able to spend something unique out of pretty stock and standard soundbites.
Gran inspiration from your favorite tracks
Another amazing way to get your hands on some pretty groundbreaking hip-hop drum samples is to pull the drum track out of your favorite hip-hop singles, remixing and integrating that interesting sound into the music that you are producing.
This is one of the fastest ways to really elevate your production abilities, but it’s also a great way to learn the ins and outs of a production studio software like FL Studio.
By chopping up your favorite tracks you’ll learn how to navigate this intense piece of software, you’ll learn how to tweak and modify preassembled sound packages to create something new and unique, and you’ll learn how to peace everything back together to spin the foundation of amazing hip-hop tracks.
It really doesn’t get much better than that!
Use the tips and tricks above in your music production and you’ll be making a name for yourself in the world of hip-hop a lot faster than you ever could have thought possible
