I hear you. I am a drummer and I used to be opposed to the whole beat
sampling thing and all of that. Jam live with a drummer as much as you
can ind it will help the relationship between the live groove and the
print. I just hope that the live shit will never be forgotten. It
already has been in the new R&B tracks. It is too bad. It's live Stevie
Wonder (I'm a big fan)......when he used to have his R&B soul jams with
live drums that shit was soaked with feeling and swing. Today's drum
loops nod my head but I loose the feeling, the honesty of the groove.
Anyway, I dig playing with live DJs......I have a lot to look forward to
and learn with them. Do the live jam again.
