In this video, I take another look at the Master at Work, Kenny Dope. I look at techniques he used when beatmaking in the late 90s and put together a Kenny Dope type beat in the Isla Instruments S2400 drawing influences from the Broken Beat, Afro and DnB genres.
Shout out and respect to Kenny "Dope" Gonzalez.
