"revelation"

the mix might need a little bit of work. also, are the changeups too abrupt?

thanks fellas.

:ohsh:

unreal. professional sound. all instruments fall nicely.

changeup is ok but it sounds too choppy. melody is weird.

drums are nice and crisp.

i enjoyed listening to this.

I dig the change-up a lot. Not enough lows in the mix. Nothing really drives the bottom half of the song. Added to that, the drums are a little too tinny for my tastes. The melodies are probably the nicest thing about this cut. And the use of the guitar clip to keep the rhythm of the drums moving, I like that a lot. Good work, through and through.

Is the acoustic loop live?

Wow.

This is real tight dude.

Both the guitar samples are fresh.

The organ sample that comes in is real nice.

And the change-up/breakdown part is fantastic.

This is really nice work.

red scare-- nice ass beat my man. sounds like a sublime song or something. solid.

I can't say anything about the mix cuz i'm listening on my really shitty laptop speakers.

you have remarkably good quality on your ish,would love to hear how a proffessionally mastered album would sound

not totally keen on the vibe of this beat,definately 'alternative' if you feel me,but definately feel it for it's intended vibe,it is probably rhymable,altho not by anyone i can think of that i'd probably listen to,haha


the drum work is intricate as usual,the kick seems a little fragile but not in a interferring way,just seems 'acoustic' i guess that's alright

digging all the subtle changeups,and the hook is especially nice,the funky yell definately eases it into the change up without seeming to sudden



good job man,nice work
