It's J Dilla month!

In memory of legendary HipHop producer James Dewitt Yancey aka J Dilla and the legacy of incredible sonic offerings that he blessed the world with in his short time on this planet. I salute the King of Beats by not only listening to his music but also listening to the music and fellow producers that influenced his greatness.

DillaVolts - Ghetto Gandalf

This month I'm going back to my HipHop roots, digging through the vinyl vault to pick out some of my favorite songs that J Dilla sampled. The challenge is to flip the samples in a new way and add on to the Boombap tradition. To push my beats in a different direction I'm using my modular synth, Akai MPC60II and Elektron Machinedrum for this series of beats, in a style we call Modbap... modular synth boombap.

Inspiration:

J DILLA - Zelda

Mort Garson - They're Off To Find The Wozard
