Young Guru Wants To Teach College

Here’s the final clip from my sit down with Mr. Keaton. In previous conversations, he’s expressed a desire to teach at a college or university. But before you fill out that FASFA, listen up as Guru schools you to some game. You’re welcome Y.G. I made you hot nigga! Ha!

    Hes right about people not experimenting with Synths.

    would be interesting to have him as a professor. Def would
    learn a whole lot.

    I enjoy listening to Guru speak about music; he is passionate about it and he breaks down the music making process into simple terms. It is refreshing. I also liked his candid thoughts on what it’s like to work with Jigga.

    He has a lot of practical knowledge about the music making process , which is a good foundation for a quality proffesor. I always preffered proffesors/teachers who had been practicioners of the subject they were teaching.

    Great stuff. Thanks a lot for this. Looking forward to more…RR is now a regular site for me.

    If he wants to really teach an online course would be ideal. Post system and program requirements and run it like any other online class offered by a university. It may take some ingenuity but it’s a way to reach the most people without going through an exclusive university. MIT has a great open course ware interface that could be used as a template.

    I’m interested in making beats, but I’m unsure which program is best to do so, any advice?

      Logic is the best overall, from my past experiences with different DAWs. But what works for me might not work for u. You should ask yourself:
      What type of genre I plan on composing?
      What type of equipment do I have or plan on using?
      How serious am I about producing?
      I suggest going to your local Guitar Center or Samash and ask questions, the employees usually get a kick out of answering music related questions. You can also go to some forums (No Opinion Based Ones). I suggest Gearslutz or ProSoundWeb. Please subscribe to receive TapeOp Magazines (ITS FREE!)

    good piece, but audio is too low!

    i would mos def enroll in 1 of his classes.

    BOHA go a a guitar center or something and ask them what is right for you. Also what would help is if you can find other producers you know and get a feel for what they do before u go spending money. I made the mistake of buying too much before i mastered the game.

  9. […] switched to Reason. Next on his to do list: Logic. Sorry, but I’m lost in translation. Has Guru started teaching […]
