Beat needs some breaking up, its too simple atm I think, hats could do with some more emphasis, theyre too quiet at the moment i think.

1st beat? tis awesome :D nice choice of sample, what is it? Maybe rather than just playing the whole sample thru the background, errr cut the trumpets out, do something with it, dunno :< experiment, otherwise it just sounds like u got this song and just put a heavier beat over it. Like u said 15% done tho, so dunno what u r planning :)

Yeah, great use of sample.. jst my kind of music... of course, it needs a lot more work, but as you said only 15% done... Good work so far though, but I would have used more organic sounding drums, just my 2 pennies.

Nice sample, I think the beat has too much swing though, it doesn't quite mesh with the vocals when it first comes in.

that's a really good song! I would download it if I could. Is there anyway to download it?

your beat is fire for being your first track. Kinda reminds me of "kanye west" stuff, but nowhere near as cheesy or sped up. I disagree with only being 15% done. I think it is a solid beat waiting for a solid mc to get busy on it. Obviously, it would need some re-arrangement so the vocal samples would integrate with the mc, etc.....but i think you have a keeper. Although, this track definately needs some change ups/slice ups in the drums and maybe a few new sounds if it is to stand solely as an instrumental. keep on rockin.

I think it's pretty solid too, at least after the aforementioned adjustments and variations to the drums. Keep it up.

You Finnish btw, mpc2323?
