Beat tape...sorta

i burnt these to CD and been driving around with them lately.
these beats are dope as fuck man. the sound quality is amazing, completely professional sounding. you can tell you've been making beats for years.
aside from the slick mastering, the beats themselves knock. they each sound individual and interesting, very musical too.

edit: here's the link to Blockfish for anyone else interested in how Frantic got these beats so crispy

Can almost feel that 'Miami Bass' heritage in your sound - very fat indeed!

frantic, these really are very good. well done, dude. the tracks remind me a bit of Populous. you heard his stuff?

but yeah, you've got a really nice separation of sounds in here - which is to say a good mix. but its not so easy to pull off, especially if you are working in the 404 exclusively.

good work. i'm enjoying these.

that tape is really nice.

the drums are really cool too. really classic and on-point.

good work man.
