Hip-hop production
Hip-hop production is the creation of hip-hop in a recording studio. While the term encompasses all aspects of hip-hop music creation, including recording the rapping of an MC, a turntablist or DJ providing a beat, using samples and "scratching" using record players and the creation of a rhythmic backing track, and using a drum machine or sequencer, it is most commonly used to refer to recording the instrumental, non-lyrical and non-vocal aspects of hip-hop.
