Hey everyone. This is the slowed down version of a song that I'm writing to be a vocal piece. I'm getting my good friend DJ to vocalize, so expect that soon. But, here's the original mix. Enjoy!

Derrick

p.s. should this be in hip hop or trance? lol

Sweet.

Ok, now for some actual info.

This is like trance basically... with a hiphop backbeat. That's all the hiphop influence here... I'd say trance.

Ok, now you want Tips too?! Fine :P

Instruments: Nice sound. There's this arp that I noticed around 1:40 that I thought was a bit simple sounding for this thing. The bass is very nice, phat and round. Lead synth at 2:07 is a bit loud, seems to be stealin' the basic lead's thunder, if ya know what I mean. If you don't, then I mean it's too loud, and has a touch too many mids.

Percussion: Freakin' sweet. Gotta love dem 909 claps. Kick could use a bit of hiphop fuck-ery if you know what I mean, in the sense that it could use a bass booooooooooooooooooo... like the commercial hiphop songs have. Aka, a 909 kick lowpassed underneath.

Arrangement: Is good. And basic. And short. I say extend it. Make it DJ-able. That build leading into the second 'main part' is quite nice. It starts and ends kinda abruptly, though. Definitely not DJ-able if someone wanted to. So maybe you could. Then again, I can't see where this would EVER fit into a DJ set, unless it was like a Trance-Fusion set, with interludes. I saw that once in a happy hardcore set, some of the songs had like... house-y or hiphop-ey middles and happy hardcore outsides...

Anyway, pretty kewl. Few issues.

9/10, 5/5

Yeah, good point about it being mixable. Vocals will soon follow. :)

Thanks for the review man.

i like the heavy beat!
it started kicking in and i started jumping with the beat immediatelly and the music melodie after that was pretty good too!
i'm not really into hip hop... but i like this somehow!
