Two kids, sitting in bedrooms making beats with an MPC1000. Jaisu is in Edinburgh and noBru is in Brazil. Notice any other similarities? There's something quite wonderful about this, I think. (via 16 Pads Music Producers Cinema)

Other similarities? The user defined mpc1000 version 3.0? Wait until the 2500 update.
I thought that was rather torturous. Also , the brazillian kid sounded way better. .. though it's not saying much... and , umm . . that's a pretty rudimentary beat..
I wonder if he is part of the wikkid Edinburgh hip hop kru, the Fountainbridge Collective (FBC)? They're always a-body-poppin' and a-rockin' the blockin' and whatever youngsters do these days... judging grafitti contests and souping up cars no doubt!!
wtf? if you want to see some REAL MPC skills then check out "Jel" on Anticon records ... these kids aint doing shite proper. I agree that the kid from Brazil is better than the Scottish kid, the Scot boy is tone deaf.
Just goes to show... it's talent that makes a good hip hop track, not how much expensive equipment you have. Could have whipped that same beat up in Acid in 3 minutes.
i am amazed nobody has written a simple mpc software clone for windows. it is quite a fun way to work. you could spraypaint over your 98% of your monitor to make it more authentic.
haha, y'all fucking buggin'...Jaisu's beat was a quick throwaway, he don't even use an MPC 1000 - anyone actually been to his myspace? obviously not... and to gearjunkie, if you actually watched the whole of the Jaisu vid, you'd see the sample is mentioned at the end. jeez..... and wot do i think of "two kids making the same beat, 6000 miles apart" - surely that brazilian kid watched the first vid, and thought he would re-enact it for us, big deal. 1
"And here we see hip-hop in all its naked weakness: totally dependent on the real musicians who cut the vinyl grooves. "
wow. i havent heard something so dumb in a long time. first off, you ever here of i dont know...the entire 90's hiphop scene!!? all of it was keyboard beats, very very little sampling. and if you dont think sampling is a viable form of music then i guess you dont really listen to anything past roots blues. because a great arguement ca be made to say that all music after blues if just reworkings of blues. loser.
