    @Marc Duncan - The beat has good deal of energy in it. I feel what you're going for my drums could be crispier for better effect imo. The arrangement is good, keeps the vibe fresh. I like the percussion you've used. Nice one. Logic x Busdriver

    @SPmusic I don't like the main synth, sounds casio-like to me. The drum programming is nice but I'd also use different sounds. Where did you get these samples? I'd keep stuff as it is but change sounds. @tomkillsjerry That's nice, I like how wide the pad is. Drums hit hard. Nice one!

    @tomkillsjerry Solid, conventional D'n'B. Well executed beat. @DEEZ BEATZ Man, that chop is solid, really good exotic vibe. Drums sound good but I think that something less conventional could also work. Solid trap beat, maybe just a bit too much distortion but not a big issue. @ClosetDrawer...

    @Johni Cleveland Man, perfect chops. The change was unexpected but I end up liking it. Respect for doing it live. No critism from me. @Drago Zetić I really like the vibe but I feel that the piano is clashing with the vocals. It kind of reminds me of Cage with he'd rap on lo-fi stuff. Overall, I...

    @Marc Duncan First of all, I'm gonna say that I don't like vibes like this. Anyway, arps and pads definitely work nicely, you've got some trance-like mood going on here. Production wise the sub is too loud and with limiter on the master channel it drowns everything with it. Also, the keys that...

    I've uploaded this beat some time ago. Dark eerie vocals and processed harp sound started it of. Let me know what you think. @DEEZ BEATZ Your beat has a dope vibe, I like the arps that are going on in there, leads are nice. I'd just hope that the beat would be longer, now it's hard to comment...

    @O'neil - Jesus, what you did here is beautiful. Minimalistic in the best sense of the word. I love the short vocal snippet a lot. That rim shot with loads of reverb on it is a nice touch. Great beat! @TeeJay - Cool vibe. Snare sounds great. When you've got piano that comes around 1:20 I feel...

    @Joe I wasn't feeling your beat until the guitar came in. If you'd add something to the section with lead only the beat would be 100% fire. I am thinking of some percussion or simple clave playing some polymetric stuff. Nice work nonetheless, the tone you achieved with the guitar is amazing...

    Beatmaker vs Producer - Thoughts by Just Blaze

    Wise words. I had the same problem with compression before. Now I use really light ratios like 2:1/3:1 and just put few compressors after effects, on busses etc. - I've read about this technique somewhere and it has helped me a lot. Regarding the producer vs beatmaker I definitely agree. The...

    What Beat Types Do You Prefer

    I am big fan of psybient (think Shpongle or Ethnogenic), psytrance, IDM - basically synths with a touch of organic sounds. It greatly influenced how I perceive Hip-Hop. I like anything from sampling (like on latest Bada$$ album), old vibes mixed with electronic sounds (Impossible Kid). I also...
