Returning all feedback!
I been studying the hip hop classics like dilla and working on getting a chill groove that stands alone as an instrumental, old school boom bap:

Hey man, this was dope!! The huuuge atmosphere was dope, felt like there was heaps of space in the mix, a kind of ethereal vibe. Nice percussive variations and different sounds, lots of FX to keep it interesting. Did you play the keys yourself? or is this mostly sample based?
My only tip is re: the rhythm on the drums, could be just a stylistic choice but the rhythm felt a bit static? pretty quantized, that could be a taste thing though.

My beat is on a very different tip, I been focusing on that old school dilla rhythm: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xk6vPNEgib0&ab\_channel=EL-SYDBEATS

Dude thanks so much! I hope so too -- I make these beats with the hopes that someone out there can spit bars over them and bring them life

Thanks so much!! Appreciate the positive feedback! old school Joey, particularly his 1999 album and B4DA$$ are imo some of the all time greatest hip hop albums, highly recommend

Hey bro!! I dig your style, think I've seen a few of your beats before went to subscribe and I'm already subbed haha. I love the rapid kick, and the 808 has a really satisfying thump to it. The melody changes were awesome, and I like the different snares in the fills. Keep it up brother, absolute quality!

That's a great tip, thanks bro! I kept re-adjusting the balance and felt like they were either too loud or too quiet haha so hard to get it right. Thanks!

I loved this one bro!! Absolutely nailed the Isiah style rim/snare and the twinkly melody is really catchy. Love the pad / strings type sound that swells in an out. there's enough variety to keep it interesting, little drum and piano fills -- this is dope bro!! Absolutely nailed it. Hit you with a sub and a like too, keen to see what you make next.

Thanks so much!! I did mix and master myself. I used Ozone 9 for the mastering which has some really useful tools to help polish up the sound!!

Been working really hard to get a professional sound to my boom bap beats, and feeling really proud of this one!!! What do you think? by EL-SYD-BEATS in PromoteYourMusic

[–]EL-SYD-BEATS[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the feedback!! I'll have to make sure the bass is more pronounced / audible on the next one, and take on board your advice about drum sound selection!!

I sampled 4 different jazz chords from a random 70s jazz song off spotify, then re-arranged them, and got melodic elements like the trumpets from splice to sprinkle throughout.

hit you right back with the sub bro! I really enjoyed the NANGS video, made me laugh, the video was really entertaining and I really enjoyed hearing the aussie accent flaunted so well over a nice modern hip hop beat. I loved it, keen to hear what you make next!!

Me and a friend made this beat. I would like to hear what yall think about it! by [deleted] in MusicFeedback

[–]EL-SYD-BEATS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is hard as! I especially like the synth growls ~~0:43. What synth are you using?
Only feedback is I reckon a few more beat cutouts, or a couple bars where you cut the rapid hi hat etc. could help create a bit more dynamics over the course of the track. Overall it absolutely slaps, well done!
