GUIT ACT HIP HOP BEAT AND NICE VIOLONS - Jacquesdemers

This is not hip hop, but it's AMAZING. I love it.

Also try not talking in all caps so much ^_^

Hi.

I remember you from many months ago.

I'm not really hearing any hip hop in this. Maybe just a little.

Instead, I hear what could be a hit pop song, if you get some good vocals. Simple strummed guitar is well recorded and it has quite an uplifting feel so perfect for an emotional ballad to be played in stadiums all round the world.

Strings help give it that uplifting feel. They get stronger, with more melodies, towards the end (from 3:21).

It's the sort of thing I've heard many, many times before but it's well done and I can't really criticise anything or suggest a different way of doing things as it's quite a standard type of song composition.

Congratulations...

Ooops! Sorry. I thought my post hadn't gone through.

OK, Jacques. I don't hear this as hip hop, but as a really nice backing track for a ballad type pop song. Yes, the violins are very nice! I really like it when strings don't just play accompaniment chords, but provide a bit of a counter melody. That's something I need to do better on my tracks.

Both are fun tracks, Jacques, although for different reasons. Yes, the first one is tacky, but actually I think if deconstructed and with some changes in lyrics, it could be a really good one for somebody like R Kelly. The sax part is great. Who did that? You know really good musicians!

I liked the second one as well and I don't really get into heavy metal much. Wanted it to be longer and posted as a separate track.
