Ooooh! Danke! First of all, love your music... And the dotdotdots everywhere lol...Thanks for the listen though! I'm glad people are actually taking the time to listen. It really does mean the world to me (: And with the drums, thanks! I knew I was taking somewhat of a risk putting upbeat drums onto a not-so-upbeat-melody. But I'm glad it worked out! Much love man!

handshake, Nelephant

I like it.

I really enjoyed the listen to this nice and lovely melody.
And then i found myself singing -oh i like it- and that fits very well to the music. :)

So the refrain is already there but i don't have any other words right now .... maybe i will find some

Great work Nelephant

stay tuned

Great work , I agree with static nomad At around 1:07, I like how it pulled itself together.

I felt like you were taking us to church with some interesting organ chords. and then the choral vox just reinforced that. Almost as this song is a prelude to something bigger coming later on.

Thanks! And oooh, listening to it again, I see what you mean! Actually puts a pretty interesting spin on things lol. And trust me, there's a lot more to come. I'm only getting better with Logic pro x (Which I got about a week ago), so I hope to make more interesting tracks with much more of that atmospheric sound. Thanks for the comment by the way, It means a lot to see that someone I admire on this website is taking a listen to my music! Much love man!

Hi.

This is some quite pretty and definitely mega chilled music.

1:07 I like what sounds very distant vocals. And then that melodic, gently bouncing lead that enters. This is building nicely and the layers are locked well together.

2:28 some percussive movement and a new synth to push things forward a bit.

Maybe the groove is a bit too straight and it sounds a bit too much like old computer game music now but I do like the way you build those drums up to something quite powerful at the end. Almost a bit like metal there.

And then back down to the slow, legato, dreamy elements to end things.

It's accomplished work so well done.

Thanks! I appreciate the listen (: Yeah the track was supposed to be (in my mind) this whole build of emotions, with the swelling synths leading up to this explosion of drums and cymbals at the end. But, honestly, thanks for leaving a comment man! It means the world (:

Description : Underground sample-based hip hop with overdriven low-end, broken-beat swing, sparse funky piano chops and heavy turntablism. Beat gaps and sudden mutes create hard-hitting drops, with a raw, dusty, low-frequency sound.

Description : Sorry to bombard with the same track. Here's the final version of the track I made using an Acapella from Looperman by JakeBuzzard. Now remasterd and with sub added plus scratches and more independent equalisation on drums / doubling up on a few instruments. I've also increased the volume on the samples used and the main vocals - as mentioned before, I'm deaf in 1 ear so struggle to get a good stereo mix, honest feedback is welcomed please
