[King Drew Xlll]

@KDVS oooh thats smooth. Really has a westcoast vibe to it. I may be bias from Cali lol. Nice track wish it were longer!

Anyways here's my new track, inspired by some old kick ass cowboys.
As always all feedback return and appreciated! Looking forward to your feeedsss

 

[KZA]

Nice work, but it's a little too loaded for my taste. Other than that really cool.

 

[namesi]

Nice eclectic beat. You have a lot going on but its dope! How many samples do you have in here?

Here is one of my latest:

 

[sweltobeats]

@KDVS Original sound, I apprecciate that. Mix is ok and I don't have critique, just I'm curios to know how do you develope this beat for the refrain. I think that a melodic refrain can work, I see something completely different with other instruments. What do you think about it?

@King Drew Xlll man I have already listen and comment to this beat in another forum, you know my suggestions

@KZA Nice classic boom bap beat. I like the drum.
However, I have some critiques. The beatneeds a better bass line, and the organ on the refrain doesn't work IMO, I think that the problem are the notes that kill the original riff.

@namesi Super smooth beat man. This is the best beat IMO. I love this drum. You can add more arrangement man, the chords are fantastic, you can develope lots of world on that beat, you know?
Voices are perfect added and processed. It's rare that I really love a beat so much. Nice job man.


Here something mine:

 

[Charles]

@KDVS very cool track. It is unique and has some good uses of samples and mixing but i couldn't get in to it and enjoy it because it was changing direction too much for my liking.

@King Drew Xlll This beat is killer man the samples work perfectly and the bass and drums compliments the samples very nicely. The track doesnt get boring so good work there.

@KZA Its got some very nice elements to it but i only could get into it at the 1:00 mark when that synth comes in and changes the mood of the beat. Also very nice work with the piano.

@namesi love this beat. especially like the drums they have a nice 90s feel to them all though one of the kicks seems to be off and kind of out of place. if you fix up this kick then you have a very nice track.

@sweltobeats Very nice use of the sample. this beat goes very hard in an aggressive kind of way. really like this beat, good job man.

Here is my latest

 

[@WalkerGodsKid]

@KDVS i like how you mixed it, but i think it was a bit busy. i was feeling the initial vibe and your samples were so clean, i think it would benefit from having fewer of them though. listen to my beat though it will be the pot calling the kettle black lol!

@King Drew Xlll that bass was so crucial, mixing was very clean. instrumental shouldve been on django

@KZA really like this beat. reminds me of a day when bars were important. as a southern boy i was feeling the organ action. it seemed so intentional def changed the feel of the beat a bit. nothing bad to say about this

@namesi thats probably my favorite drum sample ever! i like what you did here. its just tough, hit repeat a few times actually. even like the mixing it complemented the vibe well. thumbs up from texas

@sweltobeats it is very early eminem. it got a bit repetitive after a while. i could clearly hear everything you had going in that beat so your mixing was on point. it just wasnt my cup of tea

@Charles i really like your choice of snare and kick drum. i think you arranged them well. i think the bassline could use some work but i like your samples and your use of them.

that said here i go. thanks for taking the time to listen

 

[tomkillsjerry]

@KDVS Really diggin on that bassline real smooth feel to dope

@KZA pretty dope thought it could use a little change up but i see you like the minimal approach cant hate on that

@King Drew Xlll That was Some Fire dope beat

@namesi Listend again yep still fire haha

@sweltobeats That intro was dope af. thought the track could use some sub def got some potential

@Walkergodskid that shit was dope drums were bangin and those phased out synths were nice

my new one

 

[King Drew Xlll]

@sweltobeats stop following me lol. nice track here, def can hear em and 50 on this. Has that aftermath aggressiveness to it. I really enjoyed your transitions on this one. Your visuals are too sick, i need to learn how to do that shxt!!

@Charles Thanks bro Appreciate it! Im loving that big snare and your percs, real chill vibes here. For some reason this reminds me of my wife Jhene Aiko "Sailing Souls". Real mellow. Good work

@walkergodskid thanks fam, def appreciate the listen. Woo! Django pplacement would have been nuts!

Woo! I like your work. That bassline + those glitchy synths is sick!

@tomkillsjerry Thanks bro bro!

ooh that drop at like 6 secs was tight! and I love how you panned that snare roll. its like perfect lol. that breakdown at 1:19 was dope too another quality track Tommy boy!

 

[TheRealAGE]

@KDVS this sounds nice and smooth. the drums are a bit too soft in my opinion. I feel like they could hit harder. The sounds in this are real nice tho.

@King Drew Xlll this sounds like some future western shit! ha i like the synths. the build is nice. I was gonna say you should layer that initial clap with a snare and then you did when the beat dropped! Excellent! Only thing I'd change is maybe have the drums a little bit higher. Or the synths lower. I just feel like the synths overpower. Otherwise good work man! I dig it!

@KZA I like the piano. Drums are pretty good but would sound better if they were more "dusty" or "rough" they sound too clean in my opinion. The mix could also be tighter. The elements dont mesh to all. They all sound too separate from each other. Like the organ, strings, etc. Keep working!

@namesi they gone have to start doing Namesi Type Beats soon!! haha...As soon as your beats come in the vibe is tight and recognizable. Ahhh I love the drums minus the kick! Something is off about the kick. It sounds like their is phasing going on. Something is off man. Other than the kick this is sooo nice.

@sweltobeats good to see you in this forum as well. I like this beat more than the Cypress Hill one. Could definitely hear old Eminem on this. Very dark/intense vibe. Mix is clean. I like your percussion.

@Charles The synths seem kind of basic to me in this. I think you need to pick better sounds/samples. The drums are just ok to me. This has potential. But needs to have some things executed better!

@@walker Drums sound nice. Snare is tad too loud. I dont really did the synths in this. Sounds a bit to crazy for my taste. I could hear certain rappers doing well on this tho. Like Danny Brown.

@tomkillsjerry You always come with unique production so thats dope. I like the snare rolls on this. I think the clap is a little weak. I like the build so far. I think your song needs to be Mastered tho. Idk if it is?? I feel like the song is always climbing! I need some resolve in the beat and I feel like i never get it!



Thats everyone! Here is my latest beat guys!!

 

[sweltobeats]

Thank you for your impressions


@Charles I like the main atmosphere, but I don't approve the snare, especially in the passages when you use more snare. My advise is to check the notes of the pattern when enter the secon Keys (at the end of the beat), because there are some dissonances.

@WalkerGodsKid This beat is crazy man. I like the main groove but not so much the arrangment on the refrain part to be honest. Overall I think that this sound is really interesting, but probably is not so easy to write bars or singing part with so much variations.

@tomkillsjerry I personally don't like so much this kind of beat, but man, it is well done and it sounds ok. The synth in the second part make me think to a song of the Prodigy

Dang, that is dope! I love the changeups and FX on that track. Kind of a new age soul vibe going.
