Reading a book is very easy but writing one is very tough. Anyone can read it but very few people can write it. Similarly, listening to music is easy and entertaining thing that also helps in relieving stress but composing music could be really stressful. Moreover, reader would read your book if it keeps him hooked, if story is good in beginning and becomes nonsense somewhere in middle; it would not get good response. Similarly, a song would not get the deserved success if only lyrics are good but hip hop drum beats are weak.

Making drum beats is an art and it begins with understanding the drum kit (instrument that is responsible for generating them). Whether you use live or online drum-set for creating hip hop drum beats, parts as well as functions remain same. Core drums have three most essential parts: Snare, Hi-hat, Bass drum (biggest and most bad).

There could also be some other parts but you are going to use these three over 90% of time while making drum beats. You must understand how all these works and you can do that by listening to sounds that are produced by them and then distinguish characteristics of their beats. You need to find what each of them may contribute while you’re trying to make good music. If you are searching for an affordable as well as convenient method of making hip hop drum beats, then you would be glad to know that you can find one online. Live kit is also very good but you need more time along with money as well as practice.
