versatility and variety? dilla beats mostly all sound the same. the samples aren't very obscure either. hes good. you corny amillion people make 'dilla beats' but who out there is making something like endtroducing? because it's original and creative and not formulaic to the point that 'fans' can do the same shit.

yeah... shut up
>>
>>73628083
you already did my friend

>>73633086
Not all of Endtroducing's are THAT obscure, there is even one song that sampled Orion or whatever that Metallica song was called and I'm pretty sure there are some other popular songs that were sampled that am also forgetting too

>>

>waves, hi,geek down, airworks, workinonit all sound the same
these are only 5 songs off the top off my head, i simply cannot believe someone would say this. Just because his beat making is repeatable doesn't make it bad, but it definitely does show he has a distinct sound.
>Donuts isn't original or creative and is formulaic
more people also know about Dilla than DJ shadow. Also Dilla died so they could make a similar beat as a tribute. Endtroducing is good dont get me wrong but donuts has more going for it
>>
>>73633162
i'm not claiming they are obscure samples dumbfuck you are
>>73633189
i'm not pulling the guys sound down or saying it's uncreative or bad wtf is wrong with you idiots? he stumbled onto his own flavor. it's very repeatable. not many people are able to repeat endtroducing's sound. it's not as creative as endtroducing. dilla was always mainstream and major label. shadow is mostly indie.

yeah but >everything I said already you not engaging with

>thanks for pointing out my own words to me
yeah i wrote them

dilla was already very well known and his sound was all over major labels and radio airwaves years before he even released donuts. he wasn't some underground dude. he was mainstream as hell and so was his sound. people didn't just clone his sound after he died. he makes good stuff but it's not that creative if every dickhead with a DAW can make it. it's cool it's just simple. i think it's fine people want to recreate it just as long as they learn from it and grow their own flavor. 'reputable'? you don't know shit about reputable. shadows sound is entirely his own you don't know what you will get from his releases. endtroducing is way more creative and it came out years before donuts too.

Maybe I associate hip hop too strongly with rap style vocal delivery but synthesised, rhythmatically pronounced music doesnt sound like great instrumental material either unless its fused with another genre to the point where its not fully hip hop anymore.

Beatminerz released instrumental versions of Enta Da Stage and Dah Shinin. While you can tell the instrumentals weren't made to be stand-alone without vocals they're still incredibly well made, probably the best producing the east coast saw in the 90s.

Everything is just, so intricate and raw, there's nothing like it. The looping may throw off the traditional music enthusiast, but RZA, Tru Master and 4th Disciple truly poured their heart into it and created an amazing soundset for the Wu to rap on.
