    I relate to this on so many levels. Very close to my own situation.

    @2GooD Productions not being lazy but I would echo pretty much everything @Hadoq said. I'd highly recommend not quantizing but don't force yourself into making it compulsory. Do whatever you think is needed for each individual beat. I prefer 'A New Age Rises' mainly because it's less busy and...

    Brainstorm - "Journey To The Light"

    Nice one @2GooD Productions ! Really diggin' what you've done with it. Didn't take you long either. I think I'd drop the vocal segment of it or maybe drop the drums when it comes in. It sounds just a little off / busy when it comes in - but that's just me nitpicking. It's still great with it...

    For your first beat this is great. Just need to add a bit of variation. You could drop the vocal part of the sample and have a change up of the keys part for a verse..no point delving too deep but yea this is very good for your first beat. Nice one.

    @Rah.sool This is quality from the get go. The sample intro with the cassette insert is a really nice touch. Got the drum break bang at it. The sample shines through at the right parts and is executed really well. THEN the bassline kicks in at 40 seconds and just takes it up another level. 10/10...

    100%, thank you. It's a work in progress but I will change it up a bit in the chorus. I do have the electric notes cutting through, so might drop the main melody / guitar and have the electric riff with some added noise. Appreciate the feedback!

    Man it's been busy today! I'll get feedback on everyone's tomorrow. Here's a remix of Guilty Simpson I've just finished.

    @Nfinity beats "In The Clouds" is head and shoulders above the other beat. It's actually super nice and sounds very original too. You could sell this beat or do something productive with it I'm sure.

    Hey @DPrezd Beggar . Massive thanks for this. This is brilliant and every little helps when it comes to mixing and mastering. Last night I had my mix sounding really good and it did come out just about on point with a few tiny discrepancies on other listening devices. However I'm hoping this...

    Cheers @Fade . Appreciate the info on the ear pads too. My last pair weren't great so the wire thing isn't really an issue for me.

    @DeadBassRecords Hey, this isn't really my vibe either but I appreciate the effort put in to making this. I feel there should be a harder hitting snare or clap in there as it feels like there isn't a pay off from the hi-hats / drum. @Rah.sool This is nice. I like the drums but would have liked...

    Headphones

    Hey, couldn't find a thread for headphones or at least a recent one. Just got myself some Sony MDR 7506 headphones and just thought I'd shout about them. They are comfortable to wear but the sound is just so nice. For producing and in particularly mixing and mastering these are exceptional...

    @Rah.sool This is really, really nice! I love it. You've got this down really well. I'll need to get a proper headphone / car speakers listen to this because I can't identify the flat that @BlackSwanFly spotted. I actually love everything on this. The sample flip, the drums, everything. Nice...

    I've thrown Cappadonna's Slang Editorial over this beat just to bring out some of the elements. I've still to get round to breaking it down and adding in an intro / outro but would be nice to get some feedback on how it sits at the moment. Nice one. Hosie

    @sole-element Very difficult to give feedback or critique this one as it's not really a style I resonate with and I would agree with most of what @3ternal said, but as you say it's all about personal taste and feeling. It's well executed and professional sounding and like @BlackSwanFly said I...

    Brainstorm - "Journey To The Light"

    Video isn't working for some reason but I managed to get the artist and title from the image that shows for a brief second by constantly refreshing. This is a nice find. I've attached a working link below hopefully. I'll get to work on this. Might even use it for the Olympics beat battle...

    Just a quick one to show appreciation to @Fade and everyone at illmuzik.com. Site is really well maintained and it's nice to see the beats / battles section is healthy. I'll try to put something together for this. Nice one Hosie
