Yeah... I just like throwing stuff out there myself too. Always surprised by what people think. I do it for myself and if they get it then cool, if not well hopefully they can take something away for themselves.

Thanks for providing some context around the tracks too. Putting this stuff out there who knows what you'll get.

I've done a few collabs with a DJ buddy of mine and we've made some (at the time) nastiest hard electronica we could, and almost nobody appreciated it. A 'scene' out here is pretty much non-existant, so what can be expected?

Hey, I'm completely over the place with my music... ambient, electronica, drum n bass, techno, house... whatever floats my boat at the time, that's what I do. I wasn't sure if I came across disrespectful or anything... was just giving my quick thoughts. Keep sharing and feel free to take or disregard anything I post :P.

Feedback is always welcome (good or bad). I've been making beats for about one and a half year now, the 500 being my first MPC. I sample from vinyl. :wink:

I appreciate it, that means you took time to listen to the stuff, which I don't expect anyone to do. So that's cool. I'm gonna keep releasing stuff no matter what the response is, it's what I do. :D

"BattleCry [ReMiX]"

http://www.myspace.com/hiphopsense1990

made this beat tonight, i used no samples. played both synth tracks from my microkorg (first time in awhile i've used it lol) and the rest is done all inside the 500. except i did a bit of touching up inside SF9. decided to put the Shing02 "battlecry" a capella with it cuz i like remixes and i thought it sounded kinda dope. lemme know watcha think. peace!!

Thnx.

BTW: I dont know if it was your page or someone elses that I tried yesterday, but I cant get any songs on Soundcloud to play!

I turned of my popblocker and everything.
Not sure what the problem is.

@ DPM, I like that sound. Its got a good vibe to it.
Assertive but smooth.
