Pretty cool man! I like the nice ambient tone. A few change-ups would be nice though. Pretty good overall man.

DJEPITOME responds:

Thanks. It Could Use Some Change Ups, I Made It For Freestyles.

[Nighttime]

I really like the ambient tone that it's got going on. Nice and chill, with a touch of a haunted feel? I also really like the subtle use of vocal samples throughout the song. I do have a few suggestions though.

First, the intro could have been around the 15-20 second mark, as opposed to 40 seconds. I think people would get interested a lot easier if they didn't have to listen to as long of an intro.

Second, I thought it could use a little more variation, or maybe some more instruments at parts. For a 5-minute song, it doesn't really change any. Maybe at some parts at some smooth brass melodies over it, or something similar? I think that would be a good addition to this track.

And lastly, I didn't care much for the drums. They just weren't present enough for someone to rap over this, and it made it sound to me more like an ambient track than a hip hop track. I think making the drums stand out more would make this a much more interesting track to listen to.

Overall, this is a good song, but with some tweaks here and there, it could be a GREAT song. I really dig its ambient tones, and it is a nice track to chill out to, but it needs a little more substance to really stand out.

Hope this helps dude. Keep up the good work!

[-GM- Melter]

Hurray ambient! I love the way you mix those sounds with the hip hop beats and the brass. This is going to melt some ice caps for sure!

B-RadGfromOV responds:

Hurrah! Thanks for listening to my shit Jack :D

[-GM- Hark!]

I love the way you accentuate everything with the brass stabs here and there. But what I really like is that bassline. Nice and smooth, with a light funk to it. Nice work, dude.

B-RadGfromOV responds:

I knew the bassline would go over well! Still trying to take Red&White's advice on finding what key the whole thing's in. Well, thanks for listening, glad you like!

[Kami | Tryptophan]

Something nice and smooth for me to nod off to. I really like the echo on the lead instrument(is it a guitar?). Real chill, dude.

[Kami | Rest In Beatz]

This was an amazing one dude. Short, sweet and to the point. I really liked the vocal samples a lot.

[That Time (Again)]

That was damn awesome dude! Great piano melody, very much in the spirit of Christmas! Great work dude!

Stavier responds:

Thanx mayne, I tried my hardest to make it of the X-Mas spirit!!! :D

[K & B | Tulips]

Awww, yeah, that piano. I'm really loving this one. Nice and chill. I like your drums a lot bro.
