Beat 732 – “Pop Off”
Built this one with Sky King drums (loops + one-shots), percussion from @ajhall89, and dusty samples from the Soviet Freestyle pack. Raw boom bap, straight underground.

Beat 730 – “Bukie Ain’t Like That”
Built this one from a @skykingdrumlibrary Patreon break + clap from Vol. 5. All synths by @cherryaudiovst and a vocal chop from @output. Gritty boom bap heat, cooked fresh.

Beat 729 – “Illberto”
Dusty boom bap vibes with Skyking drums, Soviet Freestyle sample, and a warped vintage piano I played and processed. Strings on top for that cinematic feel.
This one hits.

Beat 725 “Ol’ People”
Cooked this one up between teaching in East Oakland and hitting juvie in San Mateo. Sample chop, looper, sub bass (headphones highly recommended), SkyKing 005 drums. Raw, quick, boom bap.

Beat 714 - “Caught”
Quick sketch after teaching in Oakland—used @karanyisounds #LofiKeys for piano + bass. Chords & bassline vibes on the Ableton Push 3. No AI, just me.

Day 682 #beataday - “Jazz Forest”

For this one, I was going for a different vibe—a more slumpy, chill J Dilla-inspired sound, influenced by some of Dilla’s slumpier beats.

Pimped my ride out with a brand Padlife skin from @Styleflip , n’ dug in on some old samples courtesy of @todaysfuturesound

This is the cockpit view from my little padship, where I’ve made my home for the past 20 years almost 😳😱😅
