| yikes, sorry men. you're best off with using cbd oil rather than bud, but you build up a tolerance rather quick, and full spectrum cbd oil is not cheap, and you also have to expirement with different carrier oils and it does happen to matter. I know there is some hemp varient cbd extraction which is cheap but you need some thc in there and the costs add up quick, you might be lucky for a tax deductible. |

Although I can appreciate the composition and (semi) arrangement, I do believe this track needs..help.
I am finding your sample selection a bit redundant. Yes, in parts of your composition there are "breaks" and little bits that break the monotony of the song. However, the samples themselves need more "tonality". They need life in them. There is no wave shifting, non existent filters,no panning,not even any cutoff.
Percussion is flat, needs a lot more attention in the kick. Not sure if any EQ has been applied or compression but highly suggest it. You have different individual percussion stems that are seemingly with their own volume levels.
Sorry man, hope this doesn't come off as negative. Not my intention.
On a different note, this track does have potential, I just think you need to rethink it. |

I decided this year on attention to detail and not just creating for the sake of creating. In years past I have just been creating and creating but majority was not anything to really be proud of. I found myself liking "elements" and pieces of songs I created but could never gel them together. So, I kept on trying to make something that really was nothing. Not this year...
Now, if I am in creative mode I am giving myself 24 hours to fully engage in a track. If by then I am not feeling it, it get's tossed.
Going in with that mentality has allowed my workflow to speed up. I don't waste unnecessary time on a track that isn't flowing.
With that said, I have managed to pull a few songs out in a goal to make 4-5 tracks that would possibly attract label interest.
Out of about 8 bodies of work I have about two so far that I am liking, and this is one possibility.
Needs alot of work still and very much a wip with no mix, especially in the percussion,808 and sub regions but I like where it is going and very different for me.

Just curious but have you tried CBD? |
yeah but didnt have great effect.. from the oil at least...
I tink im more a fan of cannabinol (cbn) which you get if you don't store your weed properly :P gonna hopefully have access to kush&cookies which is a heavy cbd variety and a cbd cross of amnesia. although the second is an auto.
i like all the cb's really..

tried cbd oil, but it was foul and worked poorly. i've had a few oils that were very good, the owner of my spanish dispensary/club had one that was woooooot, and made me feel so good but never had any luck re-creating it 100%. And neither did he haha. He had burned the weed accidentally, like a bit, so it tasted foul but the effect was insane. Basically just cannabinoids fused into high fat veg oil.
I also did make some pure extracts for a period, which was fun, but meeeh.. Tried iso, qwiso and diy'd a rosin press lol... i had some african hash that i had cured under moon light that i pressed that turned all red and tasted like menthol which is a suretell sign for cbn, which is yummy-sleepy-feelokay and not insta-space-jam.. but yeah, need some thc in there too, for sure...
but dude, tax deductible? i live in norway lol, i pay taxes on my taxes!! :P |

| Very nice Gordan, well done. Those pads reminds of the days of Flying Lotus was on repeat in my iPod, good job. If It were up to me I would try to make the bass drum more authoratative to lead the synths, pads and percs etc.. |

Starts big. Interesting vibe with the oldschool breakbeats. Too much in the high end going on, pretty harsh at times. I would like the kick to be more upfront. Although the mix is far from great it has something quite magical in those pads. Well done on that.
------------
Second track with the new neighbour taking a different turn :D. The latter half probably will be maintained for a full track.

really digging that second part, I have no crits because I suck and dont have monitors anyway, sounds pro on and clean on my boombox, but so does everything.
i has some new mud, I might rip out all the mids and leave the bass maybe. |
