Hudson Mohawke’s Butter might not have been a chart-topper, but it ended up quietly shaping the sound of hip-hop, R&B, and electronic music for years to come. In this video, we’re diving into how it all came together — from HudMo making beats on a PlayStation to signing with Warp Records. We’ll look at his creative process, the gear he used, and how you can inject some of his sound into your own music! ⏰ TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Intro 00:44 - The Kid From Glasgow 02:53 - The Making of Butter 04:15 - Drum Programming 05:48 - Creative Sampling 06:48 - Bright Synths 07:41 - Influence Is All Around You 08:30 - Sample Yourself 09:03 - Laying The Blueprint 09:52 - Outro
