Not really what I play, but it was definitely quite good in producton value. Nice quirky and kind of minimal and groovy. Overall man, good shit. :clap:

yeah not bad, altho took far too long to kick in proper, i must admit i got a bit bored listening to it, that congo is far too dry sounding as is most of the track i thought.... a good start definately

[eyes without a face]

just had another listen and it needs a hook definately, a synth line or sample or something else to keep it interesting, sorry to say it but im enjoying the sounds that are there but as a whole track it did get a bit boring mate

very interested to hear it finished!

yeah, i quite like it when the bass is in proper, but boy is that one dry conga, and the offbeat hat is a proper ear-bleeder.. smooth it all off and add a few bits of ear candy hear and there and it could be cool i think :)

what they said^^^^^^, also the shaker is very dry

cheers peeps..

theres very few fx.. a few delays & a couple of filters might add some depth..

maybe a few strings, def get the thing kicking a bit earlier..

cheers for the tips peeps :clap:

[slavestudios]

right. dunno what to do with those congas lol

any suggestions ? other than bin the whole track & start again lol

easy, add some nice warm reverb, maybe some delay, maybe change the pattern a little so its grooving a bit more?
