I don't think we've ever seen such an in depth view of Thes making a beat... great!

Blindfolded Thes acting out and feeling his way around the record store, the shocked/semi disgusted expression on his face when he took off the blindfold and realized what he'd just pulled, "young Saddam Hussein singing"...
It's always great to see more of Piecelock70 HQ, but despite the nice little 2 bar loop he found I kinda wish Thes had found some better source material to work with and there'd been more footage of him chopping things up and constructing/layering a beat rather than "just" applying lots of different filter techniques. Those of you who've seen the Large Pro RR episode will know what I mean when I say that's one of the top episodes for me, simply because he really seems to get into it and wants to push himself to get as much out of the records as he possibly can. (IMO XP doesn't get nearly enough credit for how consistent he's remained in over 1/4 century, but that's a whole different story right there...)

Either way it's super cool to see how a mastermind approaches beat making.
BTW Twelve, Large Pro's episode was awesome! Very underrated no doubt...

By their very nature Rhythm Roulette, Crate Diggers & Co. don't go particularly deep, they just provide a few short minutes of entertainment (with all the pitfalls and "modifications" that entails)... That being said it's cool to see Thes getting some well deserved recognition and all the more impressive he's once again going above and beyond to ensure whatever he's involved in doesn't simply meet some average requirement but actually setting a new standard.

We know Thes is always SUPER busy, so he may not have gotten around to breaking it down as planned - or perhaps he did and I simply missed it..?I certainly wouldn't want him to feel obligated to shoot a video if he hasn't yet either - we've already been totally spoiled these past few months with all the dope stuff that's come out...
