Description : *[Used to be "Because she'll pretty much have to]*

please bear with me if i mislable the genre. thsi is my first attempt at anything raeggae/caribbean-esque...or at least thats what this started out as. somewhere, it took a wrong turn down a dark alley in the not so nice part of town lol [as do so many of my tracks]. this has got a sister track that i may put up later...its a bit darker. any suggestions are greatly appreciated [as long as youre not suggesting i dont quit my day job]!

Haha, great description. Yes this is darker than most laid back Caribbean music, but I could almost see a daring and serious couple taking this to the dace floor. I like how you pair up the bass with the steel drums. Speaking of which, Love those steel drums and the shakers are ill. Nice work oasisduke!

What's really cool about this (imho)is how you've taken inspiration from the location, and then interpreted it into something that's really your own.

This is solidly grounded in Caribbean influences, yet it's no longer Caribbean music. I'm a percussion fiend, and I'm really digging what you've done here. Certainly motivates me to listen to more of your work. That says much.

Very, very nice. Cheers.

I don't know much about this genre, but I can tell you've created a very cool and interesting piece! I really like the groove created by the shakers, it's awesome! In fact the whole drum track is very cool! Catchy tune my friend, great work!

*["BEACAUSE SHELL PRETTY MUCH HAVE TO" REVIEW]*

I was diggin it. Low notes on a piano part somewhere sound outta key but other than that pretty smooth yet busy track. Cool stuff!

i didnt notice. thats what happens when you make a track in 15min, then post it immediately, cause you want some quick feedback. i ll have a second listen and see if i cant tweak it.
cheers for the listen adn the review!

Description : I wanted to produce something as close to conventional trap as I could, while still keeping the Mindway sound. The verses and bridge are as close to rapping as I will probably ever get, and using 808s is kinda growing on me. Maybe could be better, but I am liking where it is.

Description : This is a complete redo of a Jazz track I wrote a while ago and uploaded earlier this year. I attempted to remaster the original, and it bit me. So I bit back and here's the result. Jazz with a Latin flair. For those interested, I mastered this using the HUM JAAL mastering limiter. I'm loving that BEAST! Take a listen and share your thoughts Enjoy!

Description : What up LM family, next up is a track we put together last week, and one of my current favs. I got the stems from Nea Mera's remix of 'Make Em Feel This' and made some dope samples that really accent this track. He said it's hard for him to hear everything that I did with his stems, but I also know that LM is full of audiophiles who will pick out everything in a heartbeat. So Remember, this was your suggestion, Nea Mera LOL. I remembered to list the personel this

Description : "Tears of the Moon" is just a melody practice of mine, so that's why it sounds a little sloppy, as always Don't forget to share your thoughts and ideas with me. They help me a lot with improving myself. Special thanks for KayOs2.
