I was recently introduced to Boonie Mayfield’s beats when I purchased the Fundamentals of Neo-Soul DVD from Jamal Hartwell at Gospelmusicians.com. In the DVD there is a section about making Neo-Soul beats by Boonie Mayfield and I was very impressed. Note that I am no guru when it comes to making beats so I’ll leave that up to the Beat experts and critics out there who do all the ratings. For me though, as a Neo-Soul enthusiast, I find Boonie Mayfield’s beats, samples, and tutorials to be highly inspirational and quite relevant for that Neo-Soul sound I like. I also must say that unlike some music tutorials out there, Boonie Mayfield articulates himself exceptionally well on video and is easy to follow when watching his tutorials. Some guys on Youtube can be really hard to follow.

Also Boonie Mayfield has two Drum Kits for sale at http://www.booniemayfield.com/fr_intro.cfm . I am currently looking into those and may pick them up. If I do, I’ll write some comments about them.
Boonie Mayfield a/k/a Boon Doc returns for the year 2009 with 2 new beats.. one original and one sampled.
I really like this article and I am a big supporter of Boonie. I really want to get that Jamal Hartwell DVD when I get some money. I am going to support this site as well. Great Article.
