I like your whoile jazz style going on try and take that clicky sound out of the piano loop u cut at the beginning maybe wack a subtle reverb on it. Your drum beat is nice and the vocals really go with the tune, bit more low frequency on the bass give it that sub level if you get me. Also id personally wack a bit more delay/reverb on the vocal"s when you slow it down and drop it back in. I look foward to hearing the finshed product.
Nice first try, you got the elements of what it is all about, now it's just a matter of fine tuning those elements. I agree with Numberjack about maybe phattening up the bass with some dark, grizzly stabs and maybe reign in a few of the high frequencies on the percussion. Overal good first attempt.
Btw EQ everything... slap everything, the kick, snare, hats, bass, samples... each element through it's own EQ and apply some sort of High Pass and Low Pass filter to filter out all unwanted frequencies. Just check with a frequency analyzer. It's amazing how clean it will sound even with some basic filtering. :-)
ok so there are some nice ideas here brother i like the whole jazz thing you got going on here.. it's nicely put together but maybe it needs a bit more mixing up.. some trumpets maybe a sax... just to take away from the monotone minimal sound.. me I would have added a upright bass every say two bars to add to the thickness of the over all bass sound.. if this is your first try at drum and bass congrats you got it just right there really is some roni size type sounds going on in there for me it just needs a little more variation.. nice track keep 'em coming
