"As a musical process, beatmaking
beatmaking can be broken down into three separate--
but equally important--spheres: the Technical,
the Logical, and the Creative. The Technical sphere

things like sampling, chopping, looping, sequencing,
recording, mixing, mastering, and such come into play." -Sa'id
