Concept: There is a part in every man's heart that is taken up by a love for something; whether it be love, money, women, a woman, music, travelling, etc. When things obstruct your love for it - you want it even more. I want the song to capture that feeling without explicitly saying what it is - which is the first verse. Second verse: The vocals say "Want to go back with you" - this verse is directed towards going back to that emotion. For example, if you have just met someone, that exciting feeling of whether it would be right to be with them. The fact is, you want it / them so much that there is no question in your mind.
Is that even Hip Hop I am making anymore? I think I managed to reach one of my aims when I first created this blog. I saw that someone wrote "I just went back through all of my old updates and it's funny to see where I was back then" on their Twitter. So I decided to re-read my first blog post. I said that I didn't want to make beats, that I did not have the impetus. I think I proved myself wrong - I've made at least a beat a day, if not more, everyday since.
I also think that I have finally managed to transcend "Hip Hop of our generation and breaks into something unique and uncontaminated by comparisons". Which is a really cool Christmas present to myself, one that I will keep for life too. I guess my skewed genre affiliation has come in handy here. I am not trying to say this is my best beat, probably not by a long way, but it serves as a landmark for my evolving production style.
I guess I zoned out again. I keep listening to the drums and I'm out.
So, this is Merry Christmas to you all (again). If you like the song then let it be my gift to you. And you. And you. Annnd you...
I am a 21 year old Hip Hopproducer from London. Currently my beats are ONLY 50-80 USD and I will be posting all of my new instrumentals on this blog as they get finished. Stay tuned, make comments and enjoy.
I have recently completed my first ever mixtape, "Good Food", and I will be keeping you posted on upcoming projects via this blog.
