In this live cookup I’m just in FL Studio cooking up a melodic trap type beat from scratch, straight off the vibe. You’ll see me digging for the right sounds, pulling up Electra, and then dialing in a melody idea I literally heard in my head in the moment. I’m moving quick, but I’m still making the key decisions that matter—like dropping the sustain all the way down so the notes don’t wash together and the groove stays clean. After the melody, I start hunting for 808s and testing options until something actually hits. I’m picky on purpose—I’ll scroll through a bunch, say “I don’t like none of them,” and keep going until it’s fire. When I find one that’s hard but a little off-time, I adjust it (like taking out the hold) so it locks in with the pocket. Then I’m arranging it up so it’s ready to bounce—once the bounce is right, we Gucci.
