Man, this is a kickin' track.

So good.

This is the kind of music I love to make when I get the chance.

Love the horns. Love the synths that are there.

The sub line may be a tad loud. I'd give it a bit of movement and stick an envelope on the volume/cutoff or something, but I love it.

I think the drumline could be even skippier in the second half, but once again, it's pretty flippin good. Lovely track.

Consider yourself followed.

These claps annoys me much. Would write more, but reviewing the sound itself is not the best idea, since I'm pinned to the notebook with integrated onboard sound. Built-in speakers doesn't make it any better.

Pretty nice tune, after all.

I'm not too sure how to make it a more garage sound, mainly with the claps/snares, can anybody help?

Thanks for the comment though.

Real nice track, I agree though the claps need switching up.
wouldn't mind making a remix of this, maybe a slightly darker version

I dont know garage at all. I think its a swing thing. If it is then youve got it. As for the tune its very sparse, I would add a string sound.,

Really impressive sound you have there. I can't really find anything to fault (based on my limited knowledge :p) I'm just getting back into writing myself and I would be incredibly happy to produce something to this standard. Thanks for the inspiration :D

Cheers for all the good comments here!

Its all about the changing of the claps. Think I might have to do a re edit of this. Is it more of a rimshot than a clap you want to be using for a garage sound? I mean, the clap sounds a bit too "full", and a typical garage beat feels more skippy, this feels sudden. If that makes any sense?

Anybody got any tips for a garage beat?

I'm always down for helping others too if you like my sounds....

i reckon you could swap the claps for a rimshot and use the claps for offbeats and fills, also the hats sound a bit straight, a bit of shuffle and swing in there would do wonders... tracks already sounding tight though man, im feeling that bass a lot
