Thanks man appreciate the love I look forward to giving your track a listen. Regarding the drum selection I just went through my custom drum library, loaded a selection of stuff that I thought might work together and layered 3 hi-hats, kicks and snares played around with level, attack, decay, release till I got them sounding just right.

Oh I forgot to say, welcome to the beat battles by the way

Thanks man going to try and get involved in the battles a bit more this year, to be honest I've been struggling lately to find any motivation. I've spent the last 5 months or so just basically going through a Groundhog day experience of switching the MPC on, feeling meh, don't bother to save, switch off.

Not sure what happened but some think clicked yesterday, I felt alive again and was good knocking off the rust again

Yo welcome back Oskarr and Texasrida1 hope your both doing good

Cool if that's what you're going for... but felt a little over done... even just having a part where you just barely moved the record and used your fingers to add some flutter with the strings could be sweet as hell...

But what do I know... I don't have tables anymore...
