Hi Douglas

Nice workπŸ˜ŠπŸ‘.
You're using good sounding samplesπŸ‘.
Here is what I think is missing before it will be super good:

1. A little more variation and buildup. I'm also missing some elements that make the groove flow a little better.
2. I don't know if you're using loops or you have programmed it via midi? If it's midi, maybe try to make a bigger difference in the velocity, because right now it sounds a little static, like everything is around 100-120 all the time. It could also be too much compression, it's hard to hear😊.


All the best...

I appreciate the encouragement and tips and have made some updates.

What elements are missing that could help the groove?

Thanks a lot!
Doug
It sounds a lot better and more organic now, great job:-).
