The Brooklyn-based beatsmith has been cranking out heat on the MPC for over a decade. From Masta Ace, to Torae, Ruste Juxx, A-F-R-O, Organized Konfusion, Rakim and more, Marco Polo is a great name to follow if you believe in the power and endurance of underground Hip Hop.

For those who are familiar, what’s you favorite productions of his? Have you learned from his production and use of the MPC? He’s very generous when sharing tips on how to get busy in the studio.

Here is a PDF study I created which outlines his MPC production technique and list of gear. This study includes everything from how he picks his sample to the final mix and master. You can read it here: https://gamma.app/docs/Marco-Polos-Production-Techniques-A-Deep-Dive-ejbk7hotz9i2qdw
