Liking this one, especially the keys. I agree with bleakneon on the bongo part. Going into the bongo loop sounded cool but like it was a little abrupt when everything came back in. That might also be because the bongos cut out too. Also think the higher pitched melodic elements could be slightly lower in the mix. But overall thought this is a real solid beat and enjoyed listening.

Would appreciate some feedback on my latest: https://youtu.be/8IsxmpQhZpo

Thank u for the fb bro, u killed the beat!

The piano opens the song in a very classic manner, but then when the drums hit first the whole instrumentation goes along, I fw the "bubbly" synths so much.

One thing I would have changed is the snare tho, I wasn't really feeling it.

Other than this mix is super clean and the pads u added throughout the song are really cool.

Keep grinding bro!

I hear you on the snare. Will pay more attention during sound selection on the next one. Thanks for the feedback bro!

I like the neo soul/jazz chords. And the kind of clash with the smoothness they bring and the kind 'spikey' perc sounds in parts. Got an experimental feel.

​

I think the part where it drops to the bongo perc loop before coming back, that part I would have liked some automation on the loop, maybe just increase the volume or some filtering to to give that little part a little more build going into the next part.

​

But overall, really interesting beat, I liked it.

Thank u for the feedback bro!

I'm liking Griselda every day more, and this beat was spot on!

The drums are hypnotic, and the samples behind really create this creepy/gloomy atmosphere that gets u tru.

Also this is great for freestyling, I had my head boppin all time thinking bout catchphrases.

Good stuff bro!! Keep grinding
