I just don't feel Black Milk's drums too much, they sound too trashy rock to me. Hey, they even sound "white" like the way rock went. I can dig some early 60's/70's rock, but Black's stuff don't remind me of any of that. Sound like some rock band performing on a football stadium with some "whatever" soul samples pitched too much up. Not my cup of tea. Like some of his stuff tho'. But I think his chopping and sound just sounds like a wall of sound, no "beat" to me, just hyped chaos. Sound very squashed, like most stuff. No dynamics, just a loud wall of everything. And I think he sounds like a little Jay Z when he raps which, again, is not my cup of coffee. No balls on this one.

Black is dope. Listen to his 2 beat cds. They are so dope. His kicks hit mad hard they're punchy as hell. He has that raw detroit sound that I love.

Black is one of the illest and most gifted hip hop producers around. His music (at least Tronic) is melodic and intricate, a nice evolution from his beginnings. I think he now uses alot of drum plugins, addictive or BFD...something to that extent.

EQ won't polish a turd. its about the core sound. In messing with BFD i've learned its mostly about the dimensions of the snare for example 6x14 snare has a deep boomy kinda sound where as a 3x14 has a snap/crack sound. Once the core sound is close then you can use EQ and noise gate to shape the sound.
