hey, just wanted to give you some feed back. try to stay away from just looping the sample. Its tempting but you guys should try and do some more resampling and chopping.

Its dope, I like how it is. You took a minimalistic approach and thats cool, as long as you get dope samples to loop, this was chillz.

But chopping can make certain melodies sound totally different when sliced and diced and thrown together like a frankenstein experiment.

I like to tell peeps I'm going to the butcher shop when I get the urge to make beats.

Dope Comp!!!

Ha :D

I just finished listening to this tape. As said before by pretty much everyone, you need to stop looping one sample so much. Don't be afraid to chop; you'll be surprised what stuff comes out when you chop right and rearrange well.
Nevertheless, this is okay for a first tape.
I think you chose the drum samples(all samples, actually) pretty well, but I think you also needed to add more swing.

You wouldn't let me know which sample you used in Stuntin' Like Abraham Pectus, would you? :D

Some dope loops you've got there. Im loving the distortion in those tracks too. " To Dust"s my favorite.
But how dare you use "The House of rising sun" sample :D Anyways, with this sample, even superproducer solar got my props
nice tape!
