Diggin it. Definetly thinks it's needs some vocals and mess with some hi hat  rhythm

Very cool! I think the snare could use a bit more weight though. It has a nice buzz on the high end, but I would try layering it with a snare thats heavy around 200-500hz, see if you like it.

Really digging this! To expand on the female vocals idea, you could totally throw a female vocal sample into a sampler with some looping and portamento and play a nice lead melody over this to give it some emotion and something for the listener to sing along to.

this is pretty cool. the bass is great and carries good weight but i think the kick sample or processing could be a little thumpier/deeper..it kinda sounds like the kick is a little distorted as is. Hi hats could be a little brighter/sharper as well. the little plucks could be mixed a little bit more to the front, i like them

sounds like shit compared to this new version. thanks for the heads up!

I think using female vocal chops for a simple melody, and then getting male rap over that as the focal point of the song would be sweet.

Chill sounds! Only suggestion is to adjust that kick some. You might have it distorting /poofing on purpose, but I feel it is a bit awkward for the vibe of the track. Def needs a deeper punch regardless. Looking forward to more from you.

great ambient sound. i agree with the snare needing some work.
