Good buy and Good bye. This record is different , but its dope too.
THEM DAYZ ARE OVER WIT. BEAT CONDUCTA VOL 1-2 IS A END TO END BURNER. I WOULD LIKE TO BEGIN BY SAYING AFTER READING A LOT OF REVIEWS ON AMAZON.COM I GLAD TO KNOW THAT THEY ARE STILL PEOPLE OUT THERE THAT KNOW WHAT REAL HIP HOP IS. BUT CATS LIKE MADLIB, JDILLA, AND A HOST OF OTHER CATZ STILL KNOW HOW TO PUT OUT GOOD ALBUMS AND WHEN U BUYEM U DONT FEEL LIKE U JUST GOT ROBBED FOR YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY. THA PRODUCTION ON THIS ALBUM IS TOP NOTCH AND NO DOUBT TOP SHELF MATERIAL. NOT THAT GIMMICKY GARBAGE THEY PLAY ON RADIO NOWADAYZ. NUFF WIT THAT LET ME BEGIN BY SAYING I AM A 34 YR OLD HIP HOP JUNKIE AND I REMEMBER WHEN U COULD GO OUT AND THEY WOULD BE SO MANY DOPE AZZ ALBUMS OUT THAT U COULDNT BUYEM ALL AT 1 TIME.
you can't help but get a sore neck from this collection of goodies one of the best at what he does - choppin up beats & sounds and making us all nod our heads to it.
If you don't appreciate samples, music production, incomplete tracks, etc this CD is not for you.You have to respect Madlib for sharing his samples/creations because he puts a lot of time and heart in his productions and I had to get this to hear what he has in the pipeline. 3 out of 5 stars in my book. DISCLAIMER - If you are looking to purchase a CD with lyrics, full music tracks, etc then pass on this CD.Beat Konducta is a compilation of SAMPLES that Madlib created and if you are into sampling, producing, or freestyling then this CD is for you. I enjoyed some of the samples on this but would rate the CD as average since I like complete tracks to listen to. Respect to Madlib, Stones Throw, and Lootpack. Lots of tracks on this CD, but they are short. As a producer you can use the tracks and loop them on Pro Tools to create your own beats or have an emcee flow over the beats.
In fact i think this ranks right up there with endtroducing.This is great for kicking back and headnodding- many classic soul samples some old school hiphop and a little funk- Great cd- has a lofi vibe thats perfect for the style- Madlib is certainly one of the best and stacked with old lps as is evidenced in the sound. Its funky slow hiphop soul at its best- well-produced without silly overindulgences- much better than many of the instrumental hiphop albums ala shadow.
