Can You Make Hip-Hop on the Tracker Mini?

This is the first of a series of videos that I'll be doing this year, making beats from scratch using different samplers while exploring different genres. In this video I use the Polyend Tracker Mini to make some Bossa Nova jazz influenced hip-hop.

I tried to strike a balance between entertaining and educating. I talk through what I do and what I'm thinking but I also sped up a lot of the process to not make the video boring. Let me know how I did? I'm hoping to do more of these and to figure out what works best for you guys? The next one will be MPC most probably...

Thanks for watching! If you have any questions, please drop them in the comments.
