    The MPC movies crack me up. The prerequisites are:
    - as much "hip hop speak" as you can do
    - baseball cap (preferably backwards)
    - nodding as you hit hunch over the MPC relishing your musical genius creation when all you've really done is slice up someone elses creativity and re-ordered it
    - hit one pad at a time when layin' down a beat (i.e no REAL talent needed).

    The only one worth it's salt is AraabMuzik's video.

    Compare these to what Jeremy Ellis is doing for Maschine or the other NI promo videos out there. No comparison.

    With Akai launching MPC headphones they are now REALLY taking the piss and diluting the brand.
