Let The “Son” Shine In…

Charles Dickens:
“This is a world of action, and not for moping and droning in”
Musicians, artist, mothers, fathers, sisters,brothers, family and friends…please be inspired! If you are feeling discouraged in life, it is time to re direct that negative energy into something positive. This quote is a simple way to do so. The energy it takes to think about what you are lacking or to replay a depressing occurrence can be turned positive with effort. Do something active…go for a walk..clean the back yard..write..read..do some jumping jacks..do something to take your thoughts off that dark “blotch” in mind….stay active, stay positive,…stay inspired…

I want to have some fun this evening and do a basic Dirty South Style Beat Tutorial. I’m not doing this to go over the top with all the brass and progressions…. I’m doing a basic beat for tutorial purposes. It may help new producers or anyone whos new to Fl Studio….

I am using Fl Studio version 8. I have saved a template for my default start up containing a kick, hat,snare, and clap. I load that up and make a
basic drum pattern.

I am using a 16/4 Grid because its easier for me to do breaks when I work with 8 bar patterns. In Dirty South Beats you’ll notice the Hi Hats are usually twice the tempo of the actual beat. This can easily be achieved in Fl Studio. I started this tutorial at 143 Bpms, which will sound like 71.5 once we spread the kick and snare as pictured above. I right click the hat channel and select “Fill each 2 steps”, place a kick on the 1, 7, and 13, next I add a snare on 9, and 25 active steps/squares. Next I repeat the same pattern again to fill my 16/4 Grid. Now I have the “overused” basic pattern for a Dirty South Beat…..

I finally watched the movies that were made from the two cartoons, “Tranformers” and ” The Fantastic 4″. My friend never saw the original cartoon versions, so I decided to blast you with a lil throw back entertainment …Most cartoons always have some intellectual plot that keeps them from being “mindless” television…Hmnn if we took the time to discuss the lessons with children, how awesome would that be…enjoy

Rapper/MTV host Xzibit lost his son, Xavier Kingston Joiner yesterday May 26th. I always respected Xzibit because he was one who thought about his kids. I remember he teamed up with DJ Quick on ” Sorry I’m Away So Much”, from his “Relentless” Cd released in 2000. A song written to their kids about why they are away from them so long…

Happy Memorial Day to all… remember the true meaning is a day to honor the fallen soldiers who died for our country and freedom. As a child, my family always attended the annual parade. There were always barbecues,plenty food, and even more fun. As an Adult I understand the importance of this day, and that it’s more than a day to have a barbecue. So today I send uplifting thoughts to families who have lost loved ones, and I’m having a moment of silence for the fallen soldiers….

Here’s some yahoo answers of what it means. Outside the small remarks ending some of the post, there is some history included.What does Memorial Day mean?
