favs are prog rock and old jazz. dont care much for loops, vocals, drums or air, if its dope i'll use it - that said i love me a good loop.

EDIT: and drums!! i know its a cliche, but finding breaks is the BEST feeling

Mostly 8-16 bit nintendo sounds... still have my snes wired up! <3
I also like taking samples from movies and political debates on tv and downsample it and use a lot of reverb or echo in certain parts.

also a sucker for the start and stop fade in logic... need to stop using so much, but it just does the job :nod:

Anything that reflects how I am feeling at the moment.....if it's dark, it's because I was feelin like that, so I'll dig for dark samples. If it's jazzy/moody, I was just diggin for chilled stuff that day. It's easier to make beats that way!!!!

If it feels green and ill then thats what I use. Its gotta feel like an old wooden house by a dingy harbor rocking back and forth with the basement flooded with black water and little whales swimming. If it don't feel like that then I massacre the shit out of it by chopping it up, reverse frequencies like turning a high pitched piano melody into a bassline and basslines into bell chimes, I come like Merlin on samples.
