Had a little time this weekend so I decided to try some improv over Pharrell's "I Really Like You" instrumental. Had a lot of fun with this, gotta love Pharrell's beats


I've never heard that song but I know Pharrell Williams is one dope producer and unless my ears have decieved me, you are a beast with them keys, I wish I could play like that, how long you been playing?

@Matt-D Good playing over the instrumental. I really enjoyed the beat and honestly for me it was new stuff. I will check the original song for sure.
@.introspective I tried to listen to it but with my phone speakers I can't hear it well honestly and my PC still broken... I'll try to hear later when my headphones come back from guarantee. However honestly I don't know so much about remixing so I can't say what to improve.

Here is some of my first beats that I never received a feedback before. I don't have new stuff since my PC is broken so that's what I can upload for now.

@.introspective thanks bro! I have been playing on and off for about 7 years I wish I practiced more consistently. Your J Cole remix sounds good up until the singing hook it's out of sync and out of tune. But the concept is good though. Yeah I love that song and it's definitely worth checking out.
@Alejandro that melody is very catchy however I think better drum sounds would work and bring it out, but it's headed in the right direction. Nice Work.

@Matt-D I like how you just do you, your remix game is on point and I really enjoy a lot of your work. That harmonica was super dope. I really respect the fact that you are on the keys. yeah anyone who does beats has got to give it up to pharrell. I remember when I was in high school pharrell produced that clipse record. I was like Brr!! What happened to that boy!! Keep it up.
@Copyno I pay attention to drums a lot and I like the way the kick pops in my headphones, and some of the synth/melody sounds good sonically. Im Really not in to this style of music so I cant say do this, that and third, but this ones sounds good to me. Oh, lose the 3 808s at the end haha peace.
@introspective you've been doing them chill ass beats that I like, heard you last week and was kinda vibing. As for this remix you got, it all sounds good but I think the timing or something is off with the hook, but other than that I think you got something there. Keep working on it and you'll find what you want.
@Alejandro yeah the piano sample is not bad, but I would definately lose that snare, not to offend anybody, but stock sounds should be off limits. Invest in some drum packs or even dig for drum breaks, find a snare that sounds good with your beat, and just work it. You dont need a whole lot to make a dope beat, you just need the right sounds. Keep working at though, you'll get it.

I won't post anything but I see some battles coming up, I'm getting in all of them. All you boom bap kats who do the 90s sample style come through and listen.

@The Thrillz : Wow nice dark beat bro! That drop goes hard af w/ the bass and drums. Honestly this seems professionally done, even the mixing is perfect. It does drag on a bit as the main melody gets a bit repetitve, i wouldve shortened it to like 3min, but yea other than that its dope!

@sithproductions : Lit hi hats, nice intro and dope ass bass! I dig the arrangement, that first part hits hard af. And that ding sound fits so well aha. Not a fan of the static noise on the 2nd verse but good work, keep it up!

Would appreciate it if you guys could check out my new beat I just posted. Took a while to finish but i finally did it! Lmk what you think :)
