This week I wanted to work on a beat with a positive vibe, which made me think back to this flip. This was probably the first beat I made with a happy vibe, back in 2016 when I first started producing. ( https://soundcloud.com/tapeheadloops/mic-masters ) I found some really nice Ramsey Lewis sample, and chopped it up into loads of pieces, each one was under a second long. This was definitely a big step for me, because I wasn’t chopping a loop to flip it at a different BPM, all of these sounds were from different parts of the sample, which I chopped into a completely new melody that I made myself. Because of that I remember being really gassed off the flip at the time, it just felt crazy to make something that sounded completely new, made the beat feel more like my own creation. Being an old beat the mix is pretty bad, and I’ve been wanting to improve it for a while. I added more low end to the sample, and completely re did the drums, although I kept the original drum groove as an additional layer this time. 

At the time one of the things I was most gassed on was how the Microphone Master Acapella sounded over this beat, so I kept that pretty much the same, and I think I’ve done a better job at doing the verses justice, I think they fit the vibe and tone of the beat really well. Das EFX tracks always have a different kind of energy, and I think the upbeat style to this beat fits that attitude nicely.
