3 Little Digs Presents “Any Given Monday” Episode 8… Drake & J.U.S.T.I.C.E League from 3 little digs on Vimeo.
Spotted over at 3LittleDigs and I have to say I’m really impressed with this footage. Most studio clips will be a producer making a beat, explaining how a track was made, etc. but I’ve never seen the members of a team go head to head battling for the unofficial title of best ear when it comes to samples. The “interleague” battle as it was called, consisted of Rook vs Colione vs Barto with Drake crowning Colione as having the best material. I personally like Rook’s selections but what do you guys think? Was Drizzy right on this one?

Midi Mafia “Get Made” Series Continues Episode 4
October 22, 2010
Midia Mafia continues their making beats from scratch series “Get Made”. What’s different about this from other vids I’ve seen is that they get their ideas from the comments left on their youtube page. The one criticism I have though is that they use only one object for the drums and then turn to the keyboard. For more vids of producers using everyday objects in beats click here and here.
