Sample or use live instrumentation for making G Funk beats?
Posted by adminFeb 7
I really love the G Funk rap of the 90’s, stuff like from Dr Dre, Above the Law, Snoop Dogg, Warren G and so on. But Im not sure if I should use live instrumentation like actually playing a real bass guitar,drums, synthesizer, and maybe guitar and so on or just sample like everyone else? Please put your input in this because I want to make some great G Funk beats, especially original ones!

I’d do both. Start out sampling, but play along with the samples. Eventually when you start to get your playing chops up, you will find that when you mute your samples, the beats are starting to sound on point.
