The vocal sample is dope, but I don't think you should run it for as long you did in the beginning.

This beat is way dope, that piano loops and all the ambient sounds you add are sick.

The guitar that comes in towards the end is well-placed and compliments the main harmony very well. cool stuff.

One more full loop of this beat, and you'd be set.

One thing that sticks out to me is the kick, dude turn up the bass on that so it hits way harder, otherwise it just sort of is in the background.

Cut out that part of the vocal sample that you could use for the hook or whatever, from the beginning part. Save that for later use. It sounds cooler if it's heard for the first time later in the song.


I'm impressed man :grin:

word about the vocal sample....and the drums, and mix in general, need to be turned up. this was sequenced very well, it moves nicely....though the ending is a little abrupt. overall though i'm digging.

im liking this. I really like the piano in this. very melodic. sound like raindrops when the vocal samples goes away. i think the drums are ok. they could use a little more work. preferably on the snare hits. otherwise good work.

who is that at the start?? sounds a bit like saul williams, but not like saul williams

this is pretty dope, i'm liking the piano rif and the sample that comes like 45 secs in is tight, the change at like 1:25 is also tight and a verynice progression

this is smooth, i'm feelin it, could be a juicier mix imo though

Beat is truely sick. word about turning the low end of the kick up. That piana is clutch....but I dont too much care for the added keys played over the beat around 1:25. Sounds off key at places.

Its real nice tho. Its somethnig Id listen to again.

This flows nicely from one section into the next and everything fits well. It is a little unpolished though. Def turn the drums up a little or do something to give this more oomph. In parts it sounds like there are drums all around me. If you are going to pan drums try and keep it uniform (ex - snare always in the center, hi-hat a little to one side,... don't let the hi-hat switch from the left channel to the right channel).
