They would play the same vinyl on both turntables and switch between them to create a continuous song.
Hip-hop originated in the early seventies when DJs like Kool Herc and Grandmaster Flash started looping short drum solos or other parts from existing records. First, we need to understand how these old-school beats were made. But there are other ways to achieve the same kinds of effects, so don’t worry if you only have access to FL Studio (or any other DAW for that matter). So this can be a lot of additional work and maybe not within your reach. But you will need the right equipment and you would also have to start crate digging for the best vinyl records. This automatically gives you that old-school vibe through the hiss from vinyl and ‘choppiness’ of the samples. Indeed, the easiest way (and probably most popular way) to produce an old-school hip-hop beat is to sample old vinyl records through a sampler. It’s probably a good starting point to get an idea of the exact sound you’re aiming to recreate lined up. So today we are going to embark on a journey to see what elements make those classic hip-hop beats sound the way they do, and how we can build them ourselves using FL Studio. Most of these beats are actually quite simplistic, compared to contemporary beats, but that does not mean they are easy to make. There’s a lot of nostalgia for recreating classic sounds these days, and a lot of producers work tirelessly to recreate the vibes and feelings of the beats from yesteryear.
