Instrumental Mind Control
A type of music of black American origin characterized by improvisation, syncopation, and usually a regular or forceful rhythm, emerging at the beginning of the 20th century. Brass and woodwind instruments and piano are particularly associated with jazz, although guitar and occasionally violin are also used; styles include Dixieland, swing, bebop, and free jazz.

Chill and relaxed, is this jazzy hip hop beat. Cymbals ride in the back during the verse sections.
Not much to this but a smooth sample and some filters.
Enjoy.

Here is a jazzy hip hop beat. Repetitive drums over a filtered sample. There are delayed DJ scratches in the hook.
This time I actually sampled some record noise and chopped it up like any other sample. The noise is actually good filler for empty space and can be used to layer with your drums. So I played around with the noise chops and used some of the pops behind the drums.
Enjoy.

I named this beat after me and my wife’s favorite park in Manhattan — Bryant Park.
For this instrumental, I used an old sample that I had that was pretty short. I cut it into a few pieces and created a loop with it. I then found a cool old break beat that I thought fit well over the sample and programmed my own drums over the break.
I took it back to my old sampling and filtering days with this one. There’s not much to it. The sample switches back and forth between the normal and filtered versions, and follows this pattern throughout the beat. Enjoy.
Tempo: 89 bpm
This is a more mellow beat that has faint automobile effects throughout the beat. Not much to this one, it’s got some organs in the back as well. I have a long commute and sometimes I get frustrated, so the best thing for that is something mellow. Enjoy.

This is another hip hop beat that I made with a Brazilian samba sample, the first being Mato Grosso. The sample was pretty short so I tried to make it work as best as I could. Hope you like.
