A whole project that I'm trying to carry on trying to combine a bit of music styles together, the overall result is not bad this is a preview, the video I stole somewhere on the fly, tell me what you think and see who can get the acapella

 
@Traim That's nice man, sounds like good idea for a project. I love the vocals on this (could have some more body to them though). It sounds like you're trying to connect vibes from 'Velvet Underground' and 'The Beatles' with modern Trap rhythms. Really curious about your project tbh. Mixing wise there's some work that needs to be done. The whole track sounds thin and backing track doesn't blend with the vocals that well. Great demo though.

@Slikz Universe I love the sounds used but I feel some trimming and panning in upper region (mid to high mid) could help with fitting potential rapper there as well as clearing up the mix. Piano has a gorgeous tone. With proper spacing rapper has a lot of freedom to experiment with flow. Nice one!
 
@producervibes This has a nice bounce and great mood to it. It's always nice to hear a beat that sounds uplifting. You did the positive vibe without coming off as corny, which is always a challenge. Only thing is maybe make the piano melody a bit 'softer'. I could definitely hear snoop and wiz spitting some 'it was a good day' smoker version type of shit tho. Good job man.

I took some led zeppelin vocals and flipped them into a spacey trap kind of track. Not usually what i do, so wanna hear what you guys think

Thank you brother unfortunately I downloaded the vocal from youtube and the quality is low this was a test and I'm having good feedback thanks again

I also leave this experimental piece

Love that expermintal piece bro, is that the Alan Lomax prison hollar sample?
If so I liks what you did with it man, all the lil percs in the background and the drums give it a real eerie feel man its dope! Love the vid as well man how'd you made it? Subbed and liked bro.

@John Wallstreet
Yo good seeing you on this as well bro, love the vibe you got in this track man, all i'd say again is the mxiing could do with improving but only on some samll details like the kick and snare could do with some Eq'ing in my opinion and some small reverb maybe but thats just me man. Great work tho man its good! Threw you a follow on Soundcloud man

@producervibes
Good beat man, a bit repatitive but I can see how an MC could fill it in well. That synth and bell give it that Snoop Dogg feel so I know where you coming from on that. Only thing ill do is maybe alternate the main melody, add some variations or some counter melodies throughout, but like I said if you get an MC on it you'll prob won't even notice, great work! Subbed to your channel man!

An old school BoomBap type of track I made a little while back, let me know what you think :)
 
@MickMain Sup dude! Trying to be everywhere, y'know lol

Thanks for the feedback, my man, appreciate it.

Your beat's smooth as hell bro. Really nice 90's type of feel, like a RZA joint or something. I have no problems with this at all, except the ending is pretty abrupt. Maybe have it fade out, this is a nice fadeout type joint. But with the right lyrics the ending could definitely fit tho, just right now it's a bit jarring.

Ain't no thing tho, great stuff!

Thanks man, really appreciate it. I know what you mean about the ending tho man but been playing around with the idea of trying to get all my tracks to stand on their own as a singal musical piece just in case I dont get MC's on them so each track I make gets an ending based on what the track is like so this the story behind that lol
I like to get other peoples point of view tho thats the point of these places isnt it, thanks for the feedback man.

Since im on the old school vibe ill leave this second piece here..

@Traim the sample is so dope i wish u chopped it up a bit 808s were cool couldve doubled up on snares n shit. I liked it alot but i felt you couldve been a hell of a lot more creative and killed this sample

@Traim the sample again man so fire. Is that keys or xylophone on there goes good with the sample. Again good 808s. I wanna hear you chop up the sample tho.
