2 for the intro

4 - 6 for the verse

2-3 for chorus/ hook

2-4 for the breakdown

2 for the outro

repeat verse sequences and chorus/hook sequences

Though sometimes i'll throw a completely different beat in for the second or third verse, just to keep shyt movin'

when i first got started my shyt sounded so repetetive, so my mission since then has to do mad changes

track7: breakdown drums(dont know what to call it)
track8: chorus drums
track9: chorus melody

of course some beats require less tracks and some require more tracks. Just make sure you name your tracks or it will get confusing.


For the list you gave me, for Track 1 you said kicks, on that track im going nothing but kicks? and if so how many bars should i make?


How ever many bars you want? :? Whatever fits the track.

you is making the music... so you decide. All these standards are making the scene boring. Just My 2 Cents (and madlib's) :wink:
