      I really like that sound you introduce for what I assume is the chorus.

      The drumline is nice, but it seems like it's missing some bass in there. I think some bass would change this from a nice beat to a strong beat with life.

      Oh, just listened long enough to hear the bridge in the beat. Nice hesitation there.

          Judo Chops is nice 3rd, all it needs is a bassline.....

            Not bad at all, I have a friend in radio and he told me before if you are a producer and you want to get attention of other producers or a record label try to have a rhyme to go along with it like buy jayz accapella black album and put his verses to the beat, It makes it stand out more.

              I can agree with this. A lot of instrumentals sound bland without lyrics. Sometimes, the words make the instruments stand out more.

              If you can't find lyrics to put over the beats...just make your own. Really.

                I'd love to do some tracks with some vocal acapellas. I just need to know where I could get them from. Plus, it would take hella long to figure out what the exact tempo is supposed to be.

                My favorite of my recent beats is Judo Chops.

                  I like that one too. I especially like the second drum kick you used as opposed to the first, it added more punch to the beat. You could also add a nice bassline to that to really make it bangin.

                    It's actually pretty funny how I came through with that idea. I was listening to it, trying to think of what to add to give it some variety. I messed around and just turned down the pitch to some instruments and that's why it sounds like.

                    I like the airy feeling to this beat, so I think a bassline would be forgotten if I had someone rap on it.
