When I found Redda’s music for the first time I instantly fell in love with it. Redda’s style of music consists of dark synths, futuristic 808 basses, lots of low hi hat rolls and alien-like sound effects giving it a dark futuristic feel like he did in his song called “goin.” Hearing this style of trap made me incorporate these elements into different genres. When I make Drill I like to use Redda type 808s, Low hi hat rolls and dark synths. Redda also inspires me by showing all the opportunity that comes with music production such as his beats being used at an off white fashion show and beats by Dre advert.

Only recently I started listening to flume again and he really helped me implement a more creative approach to my sound. Flume's sound consists of glitchy effects, ambient melodies, hard hitting and off grid drums as used in his song called “sirens.'' I like to use similar glitchy effects as flume in my drill and trap beats on the drums, bass and the master taking them to a whole new level. This has been the most unique characteristic about my sound so far. Another reason why flume has a big influence on me is because seeing someone from the same city as me making constant hits really motivates me and shows how possible it is.

On generation music Redda's interview on youtube Hakeem mentioned that Metro Boomin was one of Redda’s influences which Redda agreed upon. But after he did not talk about how exactly Metro Boomin's style influenced him. Listening to Metro Boomin beats you can hear very similar characteristics to Redda’s such as the dark synths, punchy 808s and also crazy Hi hats. An example of this would be the song “I'm the plug” by Drake and Future produced by Metro Boomin.

Futures has a very unique vocal style that is very auto tuned to help create a different sound. Not only that but a lot of the beats that Future uses include a lot of dark synths possibly leading to the influence as to why Redda uses dark synths.

Saying that “that man was such a visionary” (Redda 2022) You can see the influence from Virgil on Redda mainly with his fashion style with Virgil even sending him free clothes. Virgil was the reason his beats got played at the off white fashion show and even got Redda to do the model walk. Redda even sent Virgil a message on instagram further proving his influence on Redda by saying “Yo bro I appreciate you for everything you inspire me” (Redda 2022) after receiving a follow from Virgil himself.

J Dilla has a very unique style consisting of crazy drums that are off grid that influenced flume “break out of the 4/4 house mold he grew up on, and helped him to begin to imagine a more fluid form of electronic music” (Danny Schwartz 2016). J dilla's off grid style also helped flume find more “beauty in the rhythms, textures, tones in experimental hip hop” (Harley Streten aka flume 2016) so without J Dilla is it pretty clear that we wouldn't have flume.

Flylo has had a similar impact on flume to J Dilla with them both sharing the off grid drum style that Flume does to this day. A song by Flylo that influenced flume is “zodiac sh*t.” Flume pointed out that the “zodiac sh*t.” “was in a different key” (Harley Streten aka flume 2022) for the second half of the song. This led him to try it as well in one of his new tracks, showing how strong the influence of Flylo is on Flume.

Flume even said that getting in the studio with Damon was a big moment for him (Harley Streten aka flume 2022). They even released a track together called palaces. There is not too much information about how Damon influenced Flume production but judging from Damon Albarn music you can hear a few similarities such as the filled in live percussion in the drums in the song “Heavy seas of love”.]]> 2023-06-18 12:05:41 UTC https://padlet.com/1031423/ee5z2pwxtrjhi6rn/wish/2626283361 Timbaland #2 1031423 https://padlet.com/1031423/ee5z2pwxtrjhi6rn/wish/2626310364
Timbaland has a huge impact on my production style. What I love about timberlands music is the rawness and the unique bounce it has with the use of his wooden style percussion. I tend to use a lot out of timberland sounds in both my trap and drill beats giving them a very distinctive feel. Timbaland is also a huge influence to me because he also uses the same daw as me and his workflow is very similar to mine with him creating most of his sounds from scratch even from his own voice.

Timbaland has previously mentioned he implements new jack swing into his hip hop style which helps timberlands sound really stand out. Teddy Riley is even credited as being the person that “discovered Timbaland'' (MasterClass 2021) and really put his name out there.

Dr Dre is well known for his west coast G funk style which you can hear a bit of in timberlands music as well. A main characteristic that can be hard in timberland music that is inspired by dre is the slow but effective feel which timbaland even said he admires himself. Timbaland respects the way how Dre can make his arrangements so simple and can make all his sound effects robust and “action-packed.” (Timbaland 2021)

Pharrell Williams is a music icon in today's world with most super producers being inspired by him. Pharrell is well known for his simple blend of hip hop and funk. Similar to timbaland “Pharrell grew up in the Virginia Beach area in the 1970s and 80s” (masterclass 2021). Not only that but Pharrell and Timbaland were also both members of a group called S.B.I. Pharreles main influence on timbaland is his mastery of bounce with timbaland trying to implement Pharreles bounce is his style of music.
