nice work
Cool man, those rhythms are really excellent. You get a really energetic pulse outta those hihats. And the wooden, hollow kind of sound playing the riff gives it an upbeat kind of clubby house feeling.
I was really hoping for a cool bass to come, but I guess its just a taster. By all means, finish it. But dont go overboard with those fx though! That kind of crashing sound would be best for the transitions I reckon. Or maybe once every 8 bars or so?
