Hip Hop Music Production - The Key to Creating a Good Track

Hip hop music production is not complicated. Like a recipe there are particular components that must be added into the track to create it complete and good. A few of these components aren't essential but using them your track will be that much better sufficient reason for all the components as well as your own unique style of production it is possible to make a good track. So what will be the components to a good hip hop beat?

Hip hop beats are constructed around two main parts; the actual beat and the vocals within. This might seem simple however the beat can be cut into smaller pieces:

The drum beat or loop
The bass-line
Orchestration
These three components make the instrumental good (like the recipe). It is advised you don't cut anything out because the bass-line may be the heart of you track, the orchestration helps it be unique and the drum beat keeps everything with time and together.

The vocals will be the other area of the track that many people omit. It is OK to omit the vocals as they are that bit you don't have to add to your recipe but with vocals added in you could create some really good music.

hip hop instrumentals is quite popular so you need to try and create your personal unique method of creating tracks and achieving this you set yourself apart from the others. As you progress through music production tinkering with different things you won't only make you a lot better but it will provide you with that unique style so don't give up.
