You got a little while still but keep learning. Composition needs improvement
needs more layers
i thought it was gonna be some goofy ahh beat when i saw the name but its good
i liked the piano part
i like the hat pattern, and the overall bounce that you went for. i think you forgot to tick the "cut itself” box on your 808's because they seem to bleed into each other. i'd also play with the snare, seems underwhelming in the mix to me. you could try layering other sounds on top of it or maybe changing your selection of snare. good bones on it i'd say.
Thank you, what parts do you mean? Too simple of a melody? Kicks need more variance? I’ve considered these and def gonna change up the drums some more.
And I know it needs more than that as well there’s a lot of stuff I haven’t learned yet 🫡
Is there another type of synth or sound that immediately comes to mind for you?
Thank you! Yes I see what you’re saying. Maybe I should pull down the hats just a tad too and make that snare stronger as you said. Also I do have a strong droning bassline throughout so maybe that’s part of the 808 thing? The actual 808s I used with the kicks are pretty small so maybe it’s more of the way they blend with the bassline? The two quick successive kicks only have an 808 layered on the second one. You’re prob right though as I didn’t know about cutoff box. Just learned something new so again thank you!
Something that has low ends
You can just go through presets and one shots till you find one
Sound selection is the most cruicial part
no problem! i’d also be careful having several different components inhabit the same area of your mix. you’re having a bassline run though out and putting 808s on top of it and those two, both being bass (low end) synths, fight each other in the low frequencies, which make them clash.
needs ride(s) and brass hits/light brass melody for a good rap game. nice works so far.
