If you have time take a listen and give wordybum some feedback.
thanks so much for the positive feedback, brother. I really enjoyed putting the beat together, and i lost myself inside of it when i wrote the verses & the hook.
So sorry for not yet sending you any demos to rap over. I keep putting it off but do still have some initial ideas that I keep meaning to send. I'm also putting off sending someone all my stems so he can do a remix of a track dedicated to him. That's a lot more work than just sending you a couple of MP3s.
Anyway: foreboding intro. Piano and some added buzzing pads. Then the drums are pretty tight and powerful. 0:35 how are you doing that drum fill? Other good and varied drum fills keep popping up.
People can groove to this and your assured and mature vocals lead us through the slightly dark, haunting journey like a good master of ceremony. Interesting lyrics, as always.
My only real complaint is a lack of an obvious change. That would really make it take off and give us a bit of a break from the incessant nature of the track. And then you can have fun returning to that main groove and idea.
Mix sounds pretty good though I guess you know the end is chopped off too abruptly.
thanks for the great feedback on the track, Static. the drum fills were done very patiently lol. they are midi drums in Logic. i took some basic hand percussion fills and moved them around and as tightly together as possible. i also used some filtering and other fun stuff to get that sound. i'm a novice with production and mixing, so i just play with different effects until it sounds good. i wanted to break up the pianos for a more emotional piece, but i just figured the drums would tell the story behind my words. maybe i'll play with remix and have fun with chopping up the keys a bit.
i'm gonna check out that link you posted in a moment. it's good to hear from you, brother!
Danke, i beg to differ. i think a lot of your loops can be rap oriented, just as long as the narrator is able to think outside of the box and get creative with the music. i am highly inspired by your work. don't be suprised if i drop a few more songs on here using some of your work :)
I have to quote MrSkinny: awesome!
Your vocals flow very nicely, liked the short "doubling" parts (again, I have to quote MrSkinny).
The drum-beat is powerful at the right point: liked.
Very "dreamy" piano part which sits very well in the mix. My only suggestion: try to use the piano only for the parts where you are not singing (or at least use it only for some of the parts). While I generally like the idea of a "sad melody" going on in the background the whole time, I think in this case it is not strictly needed: your flow alone can for sure bring enough energy and interest to this song (please, consider that this is my-very-humble-opinion).
Overall: great track!
Ciao, Domenico
Thanks a lot, Domenico. i appreciate all input, good and bad. i totally agree with you on the over use of the piano loop, but after trying different ways to use the manipulate the sample (cut it and delay shorter peices of it, texture it with reverb for a more faded stretch, etc...) i just decided to run with it and put my best lyrical foot forward. i'm so happy that people are hearing the vision and enjoying it. thanks again for the great compliments and constructive criticism!
Awesome! I love the smooth steady and fluent groove of your vocals. Nice doubling them up as well. Also loving the lyrics. Keyboard and beat bed sways sweetly behind the vocal. Nice work!
thanks so much, Skinnyboyslim! i'm super happy that you enjoyed the vocals, they are some of my favorite rhythms and wordplay to-date. it was so fun to write over this beat, and i'm glad you enjoyed it as well.
cheers!

Description : Hello everyone! EYEDYE back again with a rap track! I think I outdid myself on this one. I tried a more modern style of vocals, stacking them up and adding my own style and I love it. A little short for my taste, but I've just got so many projects. Solo stuff, My metal Band, and providing vocals for other loopers. (I didnt forget about you Danke!!!) So, for now, take it as is and maybe I'll return to it one day. Let me know what you think!
Since yall showed so much love, i uploaded a cleaner version.

Description : The rapper is BadgaNFK. One of the drum loops is cg5music. The rap is about Genghis Khan when he was a young man known only as Temüjin, living on the steps of Mongolia. These were rugged tribal peoples living as part of nature in what could be a very hostile environment. I tried to capture that in this, hence all the nature sounds.The ending is Mongolian people singing.
Description : in recognition of the King's coronation just reminding him there is another King in the UK :)))
cant publish lyrics because there's more than 3000 characters. :((
its a banger, all bars. 6 mins+ seatbelts needed.
Description : To make up for my absence, I decided to upload something you've never seen from me before. For the first time on this site, I did not make the instrumental of this track. The instrumental is a generic rap instrumental I found on youtube. I wanted to focus my energy and time solely on the rap and its lyrics. Hopefully, in doing so, the track is better off for it. Let me know what you think.
Description : Hey just produced this 100% ORIGINAL hip hop/rap beat. Haven't given it a title or cover pic (you can choose both). Would love it if any rappers spit fire over it. Free to use how ever you like, just add (Prod. Equinox) or something to that extent in the title. If you do use it, definitely send me a link. Would love to hear some of the talent within the rap community.

Description : I heard a synth loop by Keishh (see link below) and liked it. I though I would add some piano, trap beat, and other instruments to it. What do you think?
Description : I love this German Rap Style from Mr Tadeus. . They shared the Accapella with us here on Looperman and I immediately went to "work". At the end I made a mixture of Rap, Hip Hop and Lofi. The lyrics are about someone who is always edgy, irritable and short tempered. He found out that at the end is must have been the stuff in the Internet that winds him up all the time. You may listen to the original song on Spotify
Description : When it comes to Hiphop, i'm all round. i can produce underground hiphop beat, real rap, trap, cypher. rnb... anything about hiphop music... this beat is made from an old soul music... THE DRAMATICS - BE MY GIRL... just put on your headphones or turn up your volume and bump to this... what i love about this beat is the ending.. enjoy people!!!!
i'm glad you enjoyed it.
Bless.
