Your voice pisses me off but I like that because I can relate to it. Cool concept.

i loved the synth you had panning around in a slow 360 around the track. it was the perfect piece to hold it all together. the track just builds and builds and you get this sense of frenetic desperation for about 4.5 minutes. When you changed it up, I got the sense of being one of those people having managed to escape only to watch his home self-destruct before his eyes.

really nice track, man.

Damn dude, this is a fun track. You flow nicely and you ride a good balance between lyrical technique and humour.

As well as you handle the mic, your production here is the true star. This is probably one of the most intricate and creative hip-hop productions on this site. Props.

Yo, those samples are actually just stock ones from GarageBand and/or Logic Pro.

I like this beat and what you did with the sitar loops here. Maybe play around with the effects on the hi-hats. They seem a bit louder than the rest of the drums and overbear them. A bit of reverb or compression...i dunno?

That percussion loop you brought in towards the end was great. Get that puppy involved earlier. It works. Overall, you got a hot track in progress here. Props.

Really interesting to see the variety of different sounds being used by peeps here to back Zach's vocals. This beat was definitely nothing close to what I expected to hear but it is brilliant. I never thought such a dark beat would work backing Golden but it definitely did. The beat is great, love what you did with the hook and it's mixed very well too. Great stuff.

If nothing else, I have to applaud your use of The Warriors sample since I used the same one on my instrumental here called Junky.

The drums hit hard here but for some reason, I can't really feel the piano until towards the end of the beat. Regardless, I was able to ignore it for the most part because of your solid flow. Nice track, all three of you.

I can't decide whether I love the skittering drums or just wanted a reason to type "skittering". Either way, it's a great collage of melodies over the skittering drums. Skittering. Skittering. Skittering. Skittering.

Requesting coordinates. I need to visit planetjazzbass for research and inspiration.

I liked how this airy melody just floats over the hard drums. Good job on making it drum-driven, it really worked well holding the piece together during the changeups. Almost heard an electro freakout about to happen for a few seconds (almost). Nice track.

Digging the flow and delivery. The start-stop perfectly matches the piano melody. Gotta check out more of your stuff, man, I'm feeling this.

You know, this song had a disconnected feel to it but I was really digging that part of it all. I love the drums during your verses, how it's all banging and flying along before the synth pad sweeps in and slows everything down.

The synth leads in the verses sound like they are very slightly off-beat but that could just be the reverb or something or you might have even done that on purpose. It doesn't take away from the song but I thought it was worth mentioning.

Cool track, man.

digging the rap, man. i whipped up a beat real quick while I was waiting for someone at the bus stop and upped the mix to looperman. enjoy.

I heard my name...sweet!

I really like how that background sound texture comes out for a peek during the silence between your words. It's too bad actual radio shows are dead. You have a voice that would make Orson Welles think we were being attacked by aliens.

Well played, sir.

heard this in an earlier form. sounds great and the vocals are mixed well. catch-22, you did your thing on this.

a simplified instrumental version of this would be awesome. Catch brings enough to this track that you don't need to do all this added stuff on the beat such as the scratches and constant percussion changes. They don't really add anything that isn't there and they take away from the lyrics a bit.

As a whole though, this track turned out great. Solid on both of y'all.

great piano roll sample. i liked how you swung those horns in after a bit. just solid work all around here, excellent sample usage and layout, man. props.

For a beat that is so busy with sounds, it actually sounds easy to flow on. I don't know if you meant to mix those vocals that low but it adds a nice effect to this as an instrumental, intentional or not. haha. peace.

can't believe no one who listened to this reviewed it yet. sick guitar sample and the drums just remind me of early-90s rap. simple but probably my favorite of everything I've heard here so far. Hope you got more here man. Peace.

you certainly aren't hurting for confidence. keep grindin' man.

Yeah, this sounds like some runnin from the law stuff at first. then the sax kicks in and i'm thinking it's more from the point of view of the fuzz chasing the bad guys. great piece all around, especially the sax before the breakdown around 2:30 and afterwards.

man, do i ever hate rihanna but this track is hot, dude. i can totally see a bunch of dilated eyed kids jumping around in a lightshow to this. conversely, i can see myself jigging about in the club with some Black Label to this. Downloading this. Catch track. Nice.

Hey Cynical, you're on the grind, man. Beats all day!!! Hahaha...

Truth be told, I like some of your older stuff a bit better and this one seemed like a step back. It's not terrible, the melody itself is pretty good (especially the flute sample) but I might have used a different synth stab (or something completely different in it's place).

Anyways, you are right, you are getting better and I see that in your tracks. Just stay on your grind cuz you're on the right path. I'm sure you will find some great influences in your music collection as well as in the online community, including looperman.

stay up, bro. BC unite!

As someone who's frequented many a belly dancing establishment, I must say, this track is official. Great use of the samples and stop/start rhythm. Adding this to my faves.

This sounds like an electro band from the swamp. This beat is ridiculoid, dude. The vocals work great too. Adding this to my faves. Nicely done.

Dark piano sample. Feeling your drumwork here.
