let me know if the mix sounds alright i'm deaf from banging this way too loud in my headphones for the past 30 minutes lol

edit- edited in new link turned the sample and bass up WORD

Inno · 04-16-2015, 10:11 PM

Nice listen. Very laid back vibe to it diggin that

Im not to keen on the technical side but my ears ain't complaining lol

only issue i have maybe that intro could be a little more uptempo
But thats prolly just my preference.

Keep working bro

uh-oh · 04-17-2015, 06:46 AM

word thanks wise

and word inno i know what you're talking about. its the last segment of the intro. the only way to chop it clean was to take more off of the end of the chop, but then time stretching it to fill the space makes the tempo seem off.

like the intro is 8 bars including the needle drop. 2 beats of needle/record static, 2 beat horn thing, 2 beat horn thing, and 2 beat horn thing.

the last 2 beat horn thing is the one thats off. the other two sound fine because i didnt have to clip anything off them to make it work.

if you listen to the sample i used, the horn stab comes on before the kick drum in the sample. i took it to the kick initially, but it sounds weird with the horns dropping a split second before the drums, so i just chopped the section where the horn starts before the kick out, and stretched it to fit

the stretching causes it to slow down in relation to the others.

the intro took me the longest tinkering wise lmao. i'm thinking i'm gonna go back in and not time stretch it, and just drop it in relation with it, but it might make the beat come in too soon. i dunno lol

this might sound like technical mumbojumbospeak but word thanks for checking

Mutilate · 04-17-2015, 07:57 AM

I would chew this beat. If I ever get put on I'm making you my exclusive producer/beat maker whatever you call yourself. This made me really want to buy a mic and record. Thank you.

dead man · 04-17-2015, 09:56 AM

dope

some of your samples sound mad familiar just arranged differently

but yea, loved the overall feel of it. good shit. that little break from like 1:50 - 2:00 was ill when it dropped back in.

Destroyer · 04-17-2015, 11:20 AM

Witty · 04-17-2015, 08:10 PM

I will listen to this. I could listen to it now but I won't, not because I am not interested, I am, I like what you do, i dunno why but i regularly think 'i want to listen to that' and then i just don't.

It is very much a problem with me, not you, my brain is broken.

Hush · 04-17-2015, 08:19 PM
