    @deanscott Not sure what to say really. I don't think any of them are hip hop and the way you've posted is a bit frustrating. Just looks like you've signed up and dumped your tracks in the forum. No information, background, nothing. Maybe they're not supposed to be hip hop? I don't like coming...

    Cool. I will look at perhaps changing it up then. I may have trouble with a release of that particular acapella as it stands too. I'll keep you posted. Thanks again!

    Thank you dude. Appreciate the feedback. I'm going to look at this again as that's a couple of folk mentioned the beat not matching up with the vocal but I spent a while aligning with the original beat. Perhaps I've moved it slightly when mixing down or something. Feedback very much appreciated...

    Another great beat and a nice remix. Nailed the vibe. Nice work. The only thing I'd add (which is probably a personal taste thing) is analog filtering to give the whole sound a bit of texture. It's just a little too smooth and clean...but I love it.

    I would return to this sooner than later. It sounds great apart from the snare which sticks out. Regards the remix. Its basically just my beat with the MED / Guilty acapella over it.

    Argh! Get that snare sorted!! Keys and hi hats came in and I was really vibing. Nice bounce to it. Waiting for drums to hit and then that snare obliterated my ears! This has bags of potential to be a brilliant beat. All the other segments that come are in really nice but I would like to review...

    Heres another remix I've done of MED & Guilty Simpson - Face Down.

    This couldn't be any further from my personal taste and yet I weirdly enjoyed it. Probably from a technical perspective as much as anything. Well worked and enjoyable listen. Nice work!

    Really vibing with this one. You've really eeked out the goodness of that sample. Drums are on point and the mix is nice too. Lovely beat!

    Nice idea with getting feedback on unfinished projects - might do that myself. I'd say there's legs in the Synths & Roaches but definitely cut down and I like the idea of the mash-up. I think the different / heavier drums at some point would be a nice addition.

    Hey @TjombaBeats . I couldn't get into Muneshine unfortunately. It felt a bit tired and uninspiring. Like it's been done a million times before. One of the kicks is off-beat too which throws the listener. I enjoyed Synths & Roaches though. Not sure anyone would listen to the full 7 minutes...

    Here's my remix of Emskee's "Everyone in the Place" featuring Large Professor. Still needs a little iron here and there but you'll get the idea and vibe of the track. I'd like to get this one on a 7" with some others. I was also considering using the beat as an original too. Will see how it...

    Hey @Sole Element . Hard at it and as interesting and obscure as always... The Now Effect - Love what you've done with this. You've made that vocal sit so nice under the beat. Drums are great. Snare hits lovely and kicks are perfect for it. Synths just cut through enough without overpowering...

    That's amazing!

    Do I REALLY NEED an MPC?

    Absolutely! I don't see alot of reviews but what I've seen have been very positive. I'll maybe even do a video or 2 if I get time.

    Do I REALLY NEED an MPC?

    Thanks again for all the comments and feedback. I'm glad I didn't invest in an MPD as everyone as stated how bad the pads are. I've just went ahead and purchased the MPC Studio. It arrives Monday.

    Do I REALLY NEED an MPC?

    I think everyone just finds what they're comfortable with. I tried Cubase years ago but I think because my House / Techno friends loved it I figured it was geared more towards that type of genre. So ended up on the FL trail.

    Do I REALLY NEED an MPC?

    Yes, that's my thinking. I spend alot of time fine tuning my samples. FL actually has "Declick in" and "Declick out" for all chops but I still find myself fine tuning that little bit more. Perhaps alot of MPC'ers make it look easier than it is but if it's half as easy as it appears in terms of...
