For anyone who wants to start making beats.

Do it.

I thought about it for a long time and was always put off by my lack of confidence. I thought I would suck. And for a long time after getting my Maschine, I did suck. Some would say I still suck.

But it's probably the most for-filling thing I've ever done in my life. I've enjoyed every minute of the time I've spent making beats and being an engineer for a dope MC/long time friend.

Together, we've made our debut album which is currently being mixed and mastered as we speak. It's due out this month. 13 tracks of smooth/mellow/hard/positive hip-hop beats. With real lyrics about real shit that you can all relate to.

I just want to say, you should never not do something out of fear that you might fail. Accept that failure is a part of the creative process and strive to be better every time you hit those pads or keys.

Peace and love to all on this board, and to all those who post banging beats on a weekly basis.

Special shout out to Chief Bob who's style resonates.
