RJD2 Interview: Talks Sampling And Live Instruments

rjd2_01.jpg

Ohio native RJD2 talks about creative experimentation, digging for samples, and the occasional use of live instrumentation.  He has a very interesting standpoint on the sonic ideal that he’s looking to create by drawing his inspiration from Hip-Hop records from ‘88 to 93 era.  Was also refreshing to see him list MF Doom as one of his favorite producers… another artist that doesn’t receive enough credit.

RJD2 is a man beast … too bad his newest album (this interview is a few years old) was terrible … he decided to get his singer/songwriter on. Ugh. I saw him live touring behind it and the songs were just bad.

His first two albums, as well as his work with Blueprint as Soul Position is all QUALITY.
