Sorry if I'm perhaps being pedantic but I wasn't suggesting changing the drum tempo (though you could ) but, instead, the drum groove as well as the drum kit used. So, you could have the same tempo but swing the drums on an acoustic kit that would make it jazzier rather than housier. This could fit well with the piano too.

You're good at doing melodic electronic music and there's lots to like in your tracks. Yet sometimes I feel they're a little too genre-based ie do things that I've heard too often in the particular genre. Trying to get some other flavours in there might help and would probably make the tracks stand out more.

As I said, I'm really making suggestions based on what I might do. But I only have my ears and ideas and do try to think differently. It's all just music anyway and you really can make pretty much anything fit any other sound if you work at it. Sometimes it's a lot easier than you might think!

Good luck.

I really like your idea and I meant not making the drums faster but with more syncopation. Its been a millenium since I studied music so my terms can be way off the mark compared to what I mean! I'll get Superior Drummer on the job! You are right with the genre-based stuff as its easy and not so time consuming however I should get some experimentation going. Appreciate your feedback as always.

Hi, really glad you enjoyed this one. I had a lot of fun with it as it evolved from the sombre start to the almost anthem end....I was eager to keep it going but as awlays less is more.
Thanks for the great feedback.

Yes, I certainly did hear the crackle intro as record scratch rather than rain. I thought it suited it really well.

Maybe you could also add some rain or small amounts of other atmospheric FX - perhaps almost as fills at the end of the bar.

That piano is cool too.

I like the drumless drop on 1:32 and how the delayed note fades out.

I find the rest is pleasant though I'm generally not such a house fan. I think I would have preferred the main style to be something else groove-wise - funk grooves, d'n'b, whatever. Or swing jazz would be cool.

Actually I'd really like it if you had swing jazz acoustic drums and kept the same other instruments as it would be the kind of genre crossover I'm into. And would be unusual.

Just an idea based on my preferences. You go with yours...

Hi, thanks for the good feedback. I didn't start out as being a dance/house track but as most of my music, mood took control!I like your suggestion of changing the drum tempo basis and wil have a go at it, a nice challenge!
Cheers

Hello Steve ....

The rhythmic "beaches" used here, once again demonstrates your mastery of the subject muiscal. High quality hearing also.
This production is very good, and very catchy. As it brings a pleasant feeling of well being, even though the vinyl is a bit scratched .... Hahaha! I like it.

Description : It was one of those lazy Saturdays and I was like "Lemme open FL Studio and see wassup", and this is what I came up with. It was an experimental track with MychMych's acapella, but I ended up enjoying the vibe.
I hope y'all can vibe with it!

I found that sample; I don't remember if it was the Mandrils or not, but after chopping, splicing and dicing, the painting sounded amazing! I had to put pencil to paper (it was 2010). Before I knew it, maybe 20 mins went by and I was done.

I created, wrote, recorded, arranged, mixed and put a small master on it in about an hour. I added a good music friend Jus J. to the end about a week later.

You won't be disappointed.
