aphex twin or timbaland
dr,dre is overrated af

>dre is overrated af

nah, but timbaland is.

owes everything to hundreds of studio rats

owes at least half of his career to danja

youtube.com/watch?v=ZQPvgHEMCFs
find me a dr.dre beat better than that
i'll check out danja now!

>better dre beat than that

just listen to the chronic

I used to dick ride Dr Dre pretty hard and then I heard the actual song he sampled Nuthin but a G Thang from and it made me realize just how little work he had to do. It's practically a karaoke.

The answer is obviously Kanye and anyone else is just memeing for attention

>anyone else than Eno

...

my main man Rez-dog here

Quincy Jones

Kanye West obv

Steve Albini

he just has a bunch of great people around him who do all the work

Andy Warhol

Yep.

Dr. Dre -- 2001 [Aftermath/Interscope, 2000]

It's a New Millennium, but he's Still S.L.I.M.E. How Eminem survived all the misogyny conditioning to grow into the sensitive spouse we know today I'll never understand. A "family man" when he's explaining why he fled the 'hood, on the very next track Dre drips contempt for the wife he's dogging and the other husbands' wives he's sodomizing--apparently because his real-life wife told him that would be commercial, rendering him a liar more ways than Eminem himself could comprehend. For an hour, with time out for some memorable Eminem tracks, Dre degrades women every way he can think of, all of which involve his dick ("the whole eight," as this master of poetic license puts it). Best friend S. Dogg, bad speller Kurupt, and Dat 'Ho Ms. Roq are among the hangers-on who'll take his (really Eminem's) money when (and if) he writes the check. And just when you thought it was safe to discard your vomit bag he goes out on a tearjerker about a dead homey. Wottan innovator. C

Most of those people say that Kanye completely changes it up and makes it way better.
I'd say Nujabes is the best producer though. Hes a one man masterpiece.

The Chronic [Interscope, 1992]

The crucial innovation of this benchmark album isn't its conscienceless naturalization of casual violence. It's Dre's escape from sampling. Other rappers, as they are called, have promised to create their own musical environments, usually without revealing how much art and how much publishing fuels their creative resolve. But Dre is the first to make the fantasy pay out big-time. The world he hears in his head isn't the up-to-date P-Funk fools say they hear--that would be too hard. Instead he lays bassline readymades under simulations of Bernie Worrell's high keyb sustain, a basically irritating sound that in context always signified fantasy, not reality--stoned self-loss or, at a best Dre never approaches, grandiose jive. This is bell-bottoms-and-Afros music, its spiritual source the blaxploitation soundtrack, and what it promises above all is boom times for third-rate flautists--sociopathic easy-listening. Even if it's "just pop music," as some rationalize, it's bad pop music. C+

nujabes is a one man elevator music maker

you shut your darn mouth

where does pick related rank?

>hurrr durrr Kurosawa is not a genius filmmaker he has great people working for him

Does he really count as a producer in the hip hop sense? His albums with SOAD and RHCP is enough to make him god tier, but I don't know how much he actually does to produce those.

>loudness war contributor
>can't mix worth a shit
>made one of the worst sounding albums of all time
>gets schooled by smaller name producers like Sylvia Massey, even with the same bands

>can't mix worth a shit

Give an example

>made one of the worst sounding albums of all time

Which album is that?

he really isn't
but keep sucking on his nut dumb weeb

Death Magnetic is a perfect example of both

so is californication

I thought his work with RHCP was pretty highly regarded?

>“Let me give you the f–king truth of it. Rick Rubin showed up for 45 minutes a week. During that 45 minutes, [he would] lay on a couch, have a mic brought in next to his face so he wouldn’t have to f–king move. I swear to God. And then he would be, like, ‘Play it for me.’ The engineer would play it. And he had shades on the whole time. Never mind the fact that there is no sun in the room — it’s all dark. You just look like an a–hole at that point. He would just stroke his huge beard and try and get as much food out of it as he could.

>"About half way through our precious 45 minutes, he would bring in this plate of shit. I assume it was food. It was bluish green. It smelled like someone had just plunged a f–king toilet somewhere. And he would eat it as fast as he could — just get it in there, all over himself.

>"I will say this: I respect what Rick Rubin has done in the past to get to where he is now. But … the Rick Rubin of today is a thin, thin, thin shadow of the Rick Rubin that he was. He is overrated, he is overpaid, and I will never work with him again as long as I f–king live.”

-Corey Taylor

the early stuff maybe, but californication is well known for being a really really shit sounding album
jesus christ

I don't know how much Ruben contributed, but Blood Sex Sugar Magic was pretty good.

>During that 45 minutes, [he would] lay on a couch, have a mic brought in next to his face so he wouldn’t have to f–king move.

kek

>sociopathic easy-listening
The is the single best description of that album. It's a shame his last line gets it so wrong. The reason that hating it is justified is because it's incredibly good pop music.

DJ KHALED obviously

All wrong. The best producer is Culprate.

>he just has a bunch of great people around him who do all the work

>implying choosing talent isn't THEE kino talent

just because you (You) everyone and doesn't make you right idiot

By the end of his career, he will have had produced more top 10 singles in the united states than any other producer.

The RZA, if only for Long Kiss Goodnight, curious what the original version sounded like before Puff glossed it up, and Dark Fantasy.

...

*it

sup fellas

Underrated producer incoming.

WHERE'S THE HERBIE CHARTS REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

...What are you talking about? This isn't what the thread was about.

Either way it was the HIP HOP charts I'm re working on. Sheesh.

Hip Hop: Dre
Rock/Pop: George Martin
Heavier Rock or whatever: Trent Reznor

I raise you a Madlib

You're forgiven.
For now.

Dude...
What if MadlibXBlaze collaboration.

That would be fucking amazing.

I found out today that Reznor is Timbaland's favorite producer of all time. Which makes Reznor calling Timbaland's remix of The Hand That Feeds 'laughably bad' kind of sad.

Also, Aaliyah was apparently a huge fan. And Danny Brown likes him a lot. And Trent did a remix of P Diddy's Victory.

Top 5 for sure

I don't know, are producer collabs really a thing?

Ironically the only one I can think of is Madlib and Dilla, which was pretty good though...

how come someone so revered and respected produce something like Death Magnetic?

well Death Magnetic was kinda decent.
at least compared with Load and Reload.

Death Magnetic doesn't sound like the disaster most people make it out to be, but neither does it sound like something that was produced by one of the greatest producers of all time.

>well Death Magnetic was kinda decent.
Have you heard the production? It's probably the biggest loudness war offender. YouTube some comparisons if you haven't.
Not a bad album in terms of composition.

what's wrong with being loud?

it's metal after all, isn't it supposed to be nasty af?

>its a niggers who never listen to anything but rap can only name rap producers thread

Is that Christopher Walken on the right?

When the loudness ends up compressing the music and remove the dynamics, then there's a problem. Master a song well, have the CD play and then turn the volume up on your speakers or whatever. Then you get the nasty effect whilst actually having the song sound good.

where to start with Culprate
I remember I liked his Make It Bun Dem remix years ago

What is great about this copycat douche? By simply stealing anything George Clinton done and than call it as his own?

It's amazing actually how many great albums these three have been involved with.

I feel that Bowie (Bowie without Eno that is) is a pretty underrated producer. Transformer and All The Young Dudes are great albums. Props to Ronson as well.

I just listened to some Death Magnetic stuff on youtube and yes, you're right. It sounds bad. I'd never heard it before and didn't imagine it would sound this terrible.

I wonder how it ended up the way it did.

>I wonder how it ended up the way it did.
I think pop music does this because radio/TV signals makes shit quieter or something but Metallica was hardly pop music in 2008.

His album Deliverance. Or Colours if you want to go way back. All god-tier sound design.

lol no
tears for fears blew the fuck out of bowie in the production department

youtube.com/watch?v=EoAXc9Rm8Z8

is this a good remix in your opinion? He reportedly did it for money.

its pretty good. could have been better if trent put some effort like he does his soundtracks

youtube.com/watch?v=xL8m9x6j4cg

Both obviously sampled the same track, but this preceded The Next Episode by a few months.
Dre is the DJ Khaled of the 90s

yeah, its pretty good, trent has produced all of his own albums and was literally the only reason masons albums sounded good at first

Phil Spector changed the face music production forever with what he did in the 60s. Pet Sounds and Sgt. Pepper's arguably wouldn't exist without him.

hey i just started to listen to hip hop 1 year ago and only know dr dre because he produced eminem

you can't honestly call dre the best producer of all time, are you retarded

he was also the original OG, waving his pistol around n shit

wrong

in terms of actually producing, not just beat making, Quincy Jones probably

can't think of someone with more influence in the producing world

What happened to Nujabes? He hasn't released anything in years

>you can't honestly call dre the best producer of all time

well why tf not?

he ded niqqa
Yeah, if only for producing Thriller.

GC, despite the allegations by various p-funk members, most notably Bernie Worrell, that he was a great big thief, was truly a GOAT music producer

There's A Riot Going On is the best produced album of all time

based spector

Phil Spektor
George Martin
Brian Eno
Rick Rubin
Trent Reznor
Nigel Godrich
Danger Mouse
Max Martin
Dr Dre
Kanye
Timbaland

Using discography as main factor

Forgot Alan Parsons

>When the legendary New York punk band hired Spector in 1979, they didn’t know they were getting two producers: Nice Phil and Evil Phil. Nice Phil wore sports shirts and cracked corny jokes. Evil Phil wore a cape, dark glasses and was abusive and controlling. When an exhausted Dee Dee Ramone said he was going home one night, Spector reached for his revolver. “You’re not going anywhere,” he said.

it's like a fucking Simpson's episode kek
