what do yall think of my beats?
- Thread starter bigdicdaddy
- Start date
the beats are ok... they just sound too empty,like all you using is a drum machine and a keyboard....plus all of them got slow tempo...sounds like wu-tang beats from 1993...anyway since you from brooklyn and do music like me,i sent you a friend request.....keep doing ya thing and keep promoting ya self!

absolutly right , i get the same feelin, besides speedin my beats up , what do u think is missing in my stlye , generally speakin with out goin the sample route
use fruity loops to make them less cartoonish. The sound good but they sound plain.

im using reason 3, tried to dl fruity loops n protools but it neva goes threw on my mac- i just started , like 4 mths ago, i know i aint dr. dre, im just tryna teach myself - not even familiar with all the technical
stuff like 16/8/16/8/16 - would like to get better, so all opinions n pointers is well appreciated-- also these r just lil samples of my stuff , i neva claim these were finish products that im shoppin to the majors, just tryn buildThe percussion on all of them sound way too basic, and unless you're going for a specific sound, you should utilize cymbals a lot more...
As far as the rest of your arrangements, you never use any chords, and the melodies are too repetitive.
Jazz Fest shows the most promise...if you put a decent beat behind it, it would actually sound professional. My advice to you would be to sample a drum break, loop it behind the track, and add two more different types of horns playing the same notes as the first one to give the track a "fuller" feel...

so add more chords spice up my melodies some different horns- what are lows, like when i bring in the song ? n end it , am i right , might sound stupid or out my league

go to futureproducer.com and read up. listem to a dre intrumental and see how he does things, count his bars, see how he brings things in and out of his tracks. and take what you learn and flip it. and it's cool that your not sampling but listen to some old records. old classic soul, r&b, and hip hop. because your beats are a little wack but you have the drive to be good. i been producing for 6 years and I don't have my mysapce page up yet. so dont stop until you get enough.
one.
