Just extracted them and put them in a playlist. Going through now.

Idk what order they're in, but a lot of these bass drums are crunchy. Like maybe they're clipping because of levels, but none of these mixes are very clean. LOL so I'mma just let that slide then.

On my 5th beat and this is the first sample that's caught my attention. "Cold Stare| it says. This shit is clean. I love the sample and the drums work really well.

Further listening is making me think this has been pitched a little too much. Might be what was throwing you off to where you didn't finish this. Some of these notes are clashing in my head. When you're pitching you gotta watch what key you're throwing it into. I've noticed that although my program may have a different idea of what a pitch semitone is, if you pitch in intervals of 8 in Reason it keeps the original key. Yeah, it's pitched but it comes back to the key it was in originally.

I'm digging Cooking Some shit. This is nice. I like the 808s. I can tell that snare. I could see this with more low end bass for the kicks and just take out the filtered bass. The bass line isn't very strong, so that would sound good with just some raw 808 BOOMS in there.

Etched is smooth, but the whole beat is crunchy.

LMFAO Here's the beat battle.

Scanned through the next few. MIDNIGHT BREEZE IS TIGHT, YOU SHOULDA KEPT GOING. Ohhhh... I actually want this one. lol

WTFFFFF Preach is going in toooooooooo. You just STOPPED.

Preach definitely you would wanna take the filtered bass out and just do a single low sub bass line with MAYBE a single note variation. I could see this literally just being a BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM BA BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM bass.

Piece this one out for me and I'll fuck with this FOR SURE. That's a banger.

OH NOOOOO

WTFFFF Soul Open is crazy dope too if you had different drums. The drums are fucking with me. That just needs a BOOM BAP as raw as you can make it. I want these chops too.

OOOOOH and then hook too?! FUCK YOU this shit dope.

LMFAO I did this sample once too. "Foolish Games" is nice. You went for the flute part and then vox are tight on this. I just grabbed the intro. Your chops are nice on this.

Lights down low has SERIOUS potential. But I'm not a fan of the organ for the main loop section. Just too scratchy to rap over. But the drums are nice on this.

FUCK YOU AND YOUR DIGGING SKILLSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

I want STRANDED, this shit GUTTERRRRRRRRRR. Yeah that's the best so far.

OOHHHH TEDDY PPPPPPP GOT POTENTIALLLLLLLL

OOOOHHHHHHHH OK THIS SHIT GOT ME HYPHEY. This shit is my favorite sample you've used. Drums are really good, but the filtering is off. If this were mixed better I could use it right now but those strings are SCRATCHING my ear drums. As dope as they are that shit's shattering the highs right now.

You LOVE them funks. I will say that, if you're holding onto all your soul samples I feel you but you've got at least 6-7 FUNK ass beats in here.

I liked like 4. LMFAO

Good shit tho.
