[dnb-prod] Re: spanish guitars- how to think fer yerself

[OTIS]

I agree with what you're saying but not it's cynical undertone, although there are bandwagons that people tend to jump on, it seems that only the big producers can make a sound trendy if it were a little guy adding an upsnare to a capoeira beat it wouldnt get looked at too closely, but if the Bristol guys do it, it gets more attention naturally. So don't blame people for not being too exploratory or unique. They're just trying to explore the sound. You CAN be original and still be trendy.   I do agree with you on the idea that if you are going to add guitars please do produce them in an original way. Besides, you can't put your tune out unless you get sample clearence and in the meantime someone out there can rip off your tune and you can't do a thing about it cuz it aint legally created to begin with.   ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Drum & Bass Arena Discussion List Sent: Tuesday, November 26, 2002 3:54 AM Subject: [dnb-prod] spanish guitars- how to think fer yerself I find it laughable that rather than take this spanish dnb trend as a reminder that "anything goes" in dnb, and using it inspire their own creativity, amateur producers are instead slavishly hoping the bandwagon.  This is made further laughable by the fact that by the time alot of these dudes get pressed, the trend will be long gone.  Its only natural that the "big" producers set styles and trends, but the fact that kids who never in a million years would have thought to sample a guitar yet alone a spanish one, are now scrambling to download Tito Puente records of Kaza is a testament to sheepthink.  --- Drum&Bass Arena Producers Discussion List http://www.breakbeat.co.uk You are currently subscribed to dnb-prod as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- Drum&Bass Arena Producers Discussion List http://www.breakbeat.co.uk You are currently subscribed to dnb-prod as: archive@jab.org To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
