i predict that this topic is going to turn into an argument.
but i'd say Sunshine Anderson - Problems

Too many to name. Obviously Dogg Food but pretty much the majority of Aftermath albums have anywhere from 50 to 75% of the songs mixed by Dre. Well, scratch that. I'll have to go to the credits but I know he do a shit load of mixing on a lot of them albums.

That's very true. How about other than his own label? Like I Wanna Rock by Snoop (I think he mixed that)?

yup, compare that to the joint on Fat Joe's album where Scoop uses the same drum loop. the difference in the sound is huge.

Why should Dre be given production credit anyway for mixing a record? Jimmy Douglass doesnt get credit for mixing all of Timbalands productions, and Guru doesnt get production credit for mixing all of Roc A Fellas productions. They get credit as a MIXER, as do all other mixing engineers, which is what Dre should get, not producer credits

Mixing, in my opinion, has been one thing through out Dre's career that has been flawless.

That is the realest shit ever spoken on this forum
put that down to Dre's attention to detail... even his old shit sounds crisp today

Yeah, maybe best the mixing in all of music, not just hip-hop... I haven't heard the clarity + rawness anywhere else
He mixed most of Dogg Food as far as I remember, and most of Documentary.... can't remember how many songs he mixed on Em and 50's albums, but some
If he had stuff replayed over, then that's co-production, like on some of those mentioned on Documentary, but for mixing only then you'd only get mixing credit, like on Dogg Food

I totally agree with you

Didn't Dre mix one of Jay-Z's entire records?

Kingdom Come...and it sounds great. Quik also needs to be mentioned when it comes to masters of the sonics/engineering/mixing side of things. Right up there with Dre and generally on a much lower budget.
-
yeah I agree with everyone, Dre's mix game is second to none
-
I think Dre mixed Multiply off of Xzibits Weapons of Mass Destruction. The track is credited as produced by Denaun Porter from D12 but that shit sounds like Dre co produced it to me

Candy Shop
Just A Lil Bit

Why should Dre be given production credit anyway for mixing a record? Jimmy Douglass doesnt get credit for mixing all of Timbalands productions, and Guru doesnt get production credit for mixing all of Roc A Fellas productions. They get credit as a MIXER, as do all other mixing engineers, which is what Dre should get, not producer credits
This is the only intelligent post in this thread. Anyone who knows anything about music production know that when you mix a track (check: not producing, composing, writing the music etc) you get credit for MIXING the track.
I can't believe you people need to be spoonfed information like this.

Who even said he should get production credit?...

I agree too. You can't fault a Dr. Dre mix for a record in making it sound sonically damn near perfect.
BUT, let me just say that I believe Quik's Rhythm-al-ism is the best 'sounding' record that I've ever heard. Even though it's from '98 or whatever, it still sounds perfectly crisp and clear in comparison to many other records released today. Quik had a brilliant mix with that record. That and 2001 are the two best mixed in my opinion.

i think Street Gospel is way up there too, possibly even better sounding! but i don't like Suga Free enough for it to get anywhere close to Rhythm-al-ism in my book.

Tha Dogg Pound's What Would U Do? and Who Got Some Gangsta Shit?. Dr. Dre mixed those songs.

He definitely shouldn't be given "producer" credit for a mix but "production credit", yes. I'm guessing this was either a type-o on your part or you misunderstand what production credit is. If Dre mixes down a record, he shouldn't be credited as a producer but should get the rightful credit for the mixing.

Which he get's 99% of the time+++.

As he should but I was establishing the difference between "producer credit" and "production credit". If someone is listed as playing the keyboards, that's "production credit". So someone should get production credit for mixing a record.
