Howdy Aimusic Listen to the song and sounds really good not to have anything done to it. Don't know if I could dance to it but sure dose have a mood. But I don't know much about hip hop. Hope this helps.Take care and be safeTim

Top o' the morning to ya, nice sounding track but I don't know if it's Hip Hop, sounds more techno to me. I think you need a punchier drum track. Also you might want to expand the break section @ 1:50. The melody doesn't change that much throughout but an expanded break would address that.Welcome aboard, poke around and have a listen (and comment) to other members stuff, it's much appreciated.... GeoP.S. While I found the Greenpeace song funny, it's a coed forum, so not cool in this setting.

Hey All,Thanks for the feedback... yeah I will definately work on the song a lot more, just basically bashed it out in 30 minutes and was soooo stoked about it, just wanted to hear a general idea of it. yeah I do apologise if Ode To Greenpeace wasn't cool to put in this forum, dunno where else to ask some people about it

Hey aimusic,The track is veering towards being Hip-Hop and less towards Techno IMO. The synths are kinda cool, but the beats need to be slammin'. I would concentrate on getting a better kick pattern, and I would also work the hats a little toward 32nd note syncopations. The snare sound could benefit from a clap sound on top of it.One thing that has to go is the intro. Come straight in with the hook synth riff. You also need to add some flavor in the verse sections to keep it going, especially if you are making this an instrumental. Without a killer MC rhyming over this kind of track it can get old really quick if you don't have some ear candy to keep us interested.Best of luck,Cisco

No sweat, like I said I found the song funny, sans photo (also funny) everythings cool, IMO.Peace out ... GeoPS The track needs a counter/second melody, something to play against the main riff.

Hey,COOL! I will mess around with it some more... See I've just basically gotten into the whole concept of writing electronic based music (always preferred to do things ala BAND style) but absolutely LOVING IT!!!!So a stronger beat, will mess with the hi-hats and change the electro snare to a clap, was also thinking about for the verse part, using the pitch modulationg wheel to get like a hi-pitched scratching sound, but like I say, I'll mess around a bit and let you all know when the update is up and running....You guys have been exceptionally brilliant with your input. Thank you!
