Hi! I'm Lee. Welcome to my blog. Here we talk music: news, reviews, interviews, tips, tutorials and more. I'm also working on the upcoming podcast Influenced as a guest, writer and researcher alongside music aficionado Mark Williams and friends. Watch this space! I have been a lover of music for as long as I can remember, an amateur lyricist for 25 years, a music writer for 15 years and a hobbyist musician and blogger for almost 10 years. My tastes range from jazz to house to hip hop and I love helping artists from all genres develop their sound. My music, videos, reviews and interviews have been featured in a variety of magazines and websites, including: B-Boy Tech Report Gimme That Beat Humanhuman Audio Skills Dream House Beats Where Did the Road Go Beat Tape Co-Op Push Power Promo Drum Magazine You can find my music on Bandcamp: Monkey Mind Sounds AKA LeeTNB And you can find me on Facebook: The New Beatmaker page Lee's personal page
Jake One shows The Drum Broker how he came up with one of the greatest beats in hip hop history: 'Rock Co. Kane Flow' for De La Soul and MF DOOM.
This is one of those tracks that I can never play without bringing back to the beginning at least once.
On top of how hard the beat is, and how quotable the lyrics are ('...He eat rappers like part of a complete breakfast / your rhymes ain't worth the weight of they cheap necklace...'), this is one of the most well mixed rap songs every IMO. This track sounds great on every format or system I've heard it on.
This great video is in honour of Jake One's 'Snare Jordan' drum kit. From the good folks over at The Drum Broker:
