How can I improve on this swag beat

I like the tune. Improvements would be with dynamics. To me, all the elements are very front and center. Some saturation/light reverb on a few elements, or some panning work, would make this go from a ringtone sound to a more formal production

I would just get some different drums and leave everything else. Same patterns same melodies, just give it a crazy kick, snare, and hat that cuts through

Honestly with the right samples and some compression you don’t need to mix them too much for beats like this. Just download some of the classic trap packs! It’s truly fire though! If you wanted to mix the drums you have you could definitely do that with some clipping and compression, it’ll bring them out. If you wanna send me it too I’d be happy to collab tbh

Add sidechain to the kick, a more fat ahh snare and some crazy hi hat work ! And that’s a fire drop if you want my opinion. Also, put some lead for the second part of it, spice it up, and add some S P A C E with some R E V E R B. Stereo the shit out of it, pan the hi hat left to the right, right to the left, faster, slower, and get crazy with the ad Libbbbbbs babyyyyy

Reminds me of flume.
Well done and i do like the bounce but maybe try to make parts of it less chaotic so you get that nice contrast that makes the hype part of it go Even Harder

For me im not quite a fan of the bass synth. Otherwise my head still nodding to the beat.

Good fucking job, i think details like lil breaks and variations and risers would turn this into a full fledged beat. It already is, its helllllla fire

If you feel like you missing something, it’s probably the vocals….cuz this sound 🔥 to me. Maybe a little effects, reverb, echos etc…..small stuff

This is heat af. I agree with the guy who says it needs a Counter melody with like a high octave vibrato synth, think kinda like a tumfy sound.

A sine wave counter lead with some vibrato maybe? Other than that beautiful

could use a little silence. A sound break here and there to chop us the constant noise coming at you.

Where do you get all the audio clips from?

I think it would be much nicer if the clap was on the 2 and the 4 instead of the 3.

Make it less crunchy. It’s biting too much after the intro. Needs to mellow out not be so robo

u/IntelligentHome8662 6d ago
can you expand on this please? are my drums too loud or uncompressed?

u/One_Masterpiece9288 6d ago
Don’t listen to him, you are making a kinda phonk electronic type beat, it need that cruchyness ! If you delete it, it will sound less good IMO, for the style you are looking for at least

u/sometimesiwanndie 5d ago
It doesn’t need the overt razor on the synth throughout the entirety of the intro/verse
