whats the oldest form of media you have music on [e.g tapes, vinyl?
mine is cassette tapes , i have 3 with a bunch of songs on from 2k3/2k4 , ebcause i couldnt afford cds, i had to listen to the radio whenever i wanted to hear a song, i was listening to 8 hip hop radio shows a week and that was just to hea new songs let alone when i jus randomly listened to the radio in the day, and knowbody used mp3 players [lol] and i didnt have internet , so if i got lucky i had to record the songs onto tapes lol .
What route should I take?
I am 16 and and aspiring hip-hop and R&B producer, I know a lot of old and rare music and I want to get into sampling. My influences include 9th Wonder, DJ Premier, J.Dilla, Just Blaze, Kanye West, 88 Keys and many others. My question is should I use FL Studio or should I save up the money to purchase an MPC-1000 and go cratedigging and buy vinyl records? And also which one do you think is easier to pick up and learn? Thank you ahead of time for your advice.

What should I ask for them? Thanks!
What is this old school hip hop song with the saxophone?
Does anyone know the name of the song in the first 15 seconds of this YouTube clip?
I remember it from back in the day. I had the record when I used to spin vinyl and I can picture the label but I just cant remember the name of it.
Thanks!

Why is hip hop not dead?
- Because there are still cats all over the world who couldn’t care less about record deals; they just want to be known as the best at the local open mic night.
- Because while the masses spend time seeing the next person to get knocked off of Dancing With the Stars, there are still kids everywhere who spend hours each day practicing new ways to contort their bodies and defy the laws of gravity.
- Because while ringtones and MP3s generate revenue for talentless one-hit blunders, there are still people who love nothing more to spend hours digging through old vinyl records just to find that one three-second sound bit that they can loop.
- Because there still artists who dedicate their time to transferring that image in their head to the page in their notebook and then to a wall on that abandoned building in their city that no one previously cared about.
- Because there will NEVER be a day when these aforementioned groups will cease to exist, hip hop will live forever.

Brotha Lynch Hung
Music career
Lynch was born in Sacramento, California and grew up in an unidentified area he calls the “Gardon Blocc” (29th and Meadowview)in his songs. He started rapping as Ice Cold in 1986.[citation needed] He joined a local gang, and rapped about living a gangster life. He established a reputation in high school as a freestyle rapper who could “execute” his opponents lyrically, prompting his half-brother Sicx to dub him “Brotha Lynch Hung”.
He described his style as “I’ll say what I wanna say.” He appeared on X-Raided’s first album Psycho Active in 1990. As the “Street Talk Crew” Lynch, X-Raided, and Sicx recorded Niggaz in Black (1991), according to Lynch “some of my best work”.
In 1992 Lynch signed with Cedric Singleton’s Black Market Records and recorded his first EP, 24 Deep (1993). The album reached #91 on Billboard’s R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, the first of the label’s albums to chart.
His 1995 album Season of da Siccness depicted a life of drug abuse and trafficking, promiscuity, ultraviolence, and rape, with themes of cannibalism. In 2000 he appeared in the film Now Eat. In May 2009, he signed a deal with Midwest rapper Tech N9ne’s Strange Music label.

how do you tell if your vinyl record is a first pressing?
I have a bunch of old hip-hop records and I want to sell some of them, but I’m not sure how to tell if a record is a first pressing or not?
The evolution of headphones
Music has changed enormously over the past few decades and with it the way we listen to it has evolved.
In the 60’s we had the record player, playing vinyl records (we had moved on from 78’s by then). With the advent of stereo the record players came with 2 speakers. As music moved on and technology with it, the onset of surround sound started with multiple speakers for better sound quality. By the 80’s personal music players were starting to make an appearance. Notably the Sony Walkman was the leading portable player. The early ones were either radio or radio and cassette players. Cassettes were small tape players for those of you not old enough to remember! These players came with flimsy headphones that really didn’t do a lot for the sound quality. The compact disc arrived and so did high quality sound. And so it continued until we get up to date with the ipod. Even that has evolved and improved until we have the high quality sound that we are used to today. The kind of audio systems available now can reproduce live sound as it was meant to be heard.
With all the better ways of reproducing sound the demand for better quality Headphones began. At first, they were just a convenient way to listen to a portable advice. Only real music buffs would own a set of full headphones.
Music has changed too, with the advent of R&B, hip hop, and drum and bass the sound quality needed to be a bit different. These types of music have a lot of bass and therefore need a lower frequency in the headphones to get the true sound. DJ headphones were invented that were particularly in tune with this kind of music. To cover the wider range of music we listen too more technology was required. The engineers needed very strong magnets to give better sound reproduction. The Neodymium magnet features in many in-ear headphones and so another breakthrough came. The in-ear headphones have evolved and got better. In fact, Sony holds a library of 17,000 ear moulds so that they could come up with the perfect shaped in-ear headphones!
It is not only sound quality that has driven the evolution of Headphones but our life styles. We now want music with us wherever we go, mp3 players are very popular. People want to listen to their own play list whilst working out or jogging. Not only that but they want to look super cool with it. Earphones have become a fashion statement to a wide section of the listening public.
Of course there are still many music buffs who just want exceptional quality in their headphones. There is a wide range of headphones to choose from for as little as a few pounds to hundreds of pounds. Whatever you choose to listen to or how fashion conscious you are there is a great set of headphones waiting for you!
