Word up, WordyBro, says me.

So sorry for not yet sending you any demos to rap over. I keep putting it off but do still have some initial ideas that I keep meaning to send. I'm also putting off sending someone all my stems so he can do a remix of a track dedicated to him. That's a lot more work than just sending you a couple of MP3s.

Anyway: foreboding intro. Piano and some added buzzing pads. Then the drums are pretty tight and powerful. 0:35 how are you doing that drum fill? Other good and varied drum fills keep popping up.

People can groove to this and your assured and mature vocals lead us through the slightly dark, haunting journey like a good master of ceremony. Interesting lyrics, as always.

My only real complaint is a lack of an obvious change. That would really make it take off and give us a bit of a break from the incessant nature of the track. And then you can have fun returning to that main groove and idea.
Mix sounds pretty good though I guess you know the end is chopped off too abruptly.

Good Wordywork...

P.S. New sort of chillout hip hop track from me:

thanks for the great feedback on the track, Static. the drum fills were done very patiently lol. they are midi drums in Logic. i took some basic hand percussion fills and moved them around and as tightly together as possible. i also used some filtering and other fun stuff to get that sound. i'm a novice with production and mixing, so i just play with different effects until it sounds good. i wanted to break up the pianos for a more emotional piece, but i just figured the drums would tell the story behind my words. maybe i'll play with remix and have fun with chopping up the keys a bit.

i'm gonna check out that link you posted in a moment. it's good to hear from you, brother!

Cool track!

Very intense and tensioned...I'm not good in rap so just wanna say thanx for being part in this number!

Respect, Danke

Danke, i beg to differ. i think a lot of your loops can be rap oriented, just as long as the narrator is able to think outside of the box and get creative with the music. i am highly inspired by your work. don't be suprised if i drop a few more songs on here using some of your work :)

thanks again for the inspiration. Bless.

I have to quote MrSkinny: awesome!
Your vocals flow very nicely, liked the short "doubling" parts (again, I have to quote MrSkinny).
The drum-beat is powerful at the right point: liked.
Very "dreamy" piano part which sits very well in the mix. My only suggestion: try to use the piano only for the parts where you are not singing (or at least use it only for some of the parts). While I generally like the idea of a "sad melody" going on in the background the whole time, I think in this case it is not strictly needed: your flow alone can for sure bring enough energy and interest to this song (please, consider that this is my-very-humble-opinion).
Overall: great track!
Ciao, Domenico

Thanks a lot, Domenico. i appreciate all input, good and bad. i totally agree with you on the over use of the piano loop, but after trying different ways to use the manipulate the sample (cut it and delay shorter peices of it, texture it with reverb for a more faded stretch, etc...) i just decided to run with it and put my best lyrical foot forward. i'm so happy that people are hearing the vision and enjoying it. thanks again for the great compliments and constructive criticism!

Awesome! I love the smooth steady and fluent groove of your vocals. Nice doubling them up as well. Also loving the lyrics. Keyboard and beat bed sways sweetly behind the vocal. Nice work!

Not my lyrics.
The experiment began with asking GPT to write lyrics for a 3-minute house track; I ended up with way too much text, and I don't sing that fast. Next, I started coming up with melodies for the vocals, recorded the vocal parts, added instruments, and reworked the melodies, drum, and bass lines over and over again in an attempt to create a cohesive whole.
I made extensive use of JS: Vocoder (by Geraint Luff).

I hope you enjoy

Description : Ah this track. There's a little something for everyone in this, including some EDM inspired stuff. The Sewer Maawb's vibe is meant to invoke the hip hop and trap sound from 99-2012, and there are many influences in that timespan, one of those is Timbaland. Hope you enjoy it! Additional vocals by Rob Fame of The Monzder Squadd.

Description : This is cyberflares track nightdrive. He was kind enough to let me jam out with it. Which is what I've been doing the last two nights. So huge thanks to him for letting me. All I did was add some guitar that hopefully sounds like guitar but also doesn't... ;) I've been experimenting with pushing the sounds I can get from guitar to blend with electronic music.
