Hey your beat is super nice. I feel like I have heard this one before though. Was this your Beat This entry?
Not Beat This, posted it in Showcase a few weeks back.
@BiggChev
Wow man! That composition is cool, loving those jazzy vibe to it
Giving me some beatnuts kind of vibes with this one
It has something mysterious, but also laid back
One of the better ones i heard from you brother!
@Kane the MOD
Also with a dope entry, i'm really liking those drums you put on there
Drums are matching nice with the sample
Both very dope!
It's gonna be a bitch for voting on this onen

@Kane the MOD - The intro had me thinking this may be a big orchestral type beat. The choppy/janky feel I can dig, but the synth around 0:30 seemed a bit out of place. I did like the string/synth bit around 0:44 however.
If I could make one suggestion, entirely based on my personal taste, is that there should be at least one rhythmic anchor. In the case with janky chops and asymmetric drums, maybe the bass-line could serve to be a bit more centered and give the entire beat a rhythmic center. I love the Rick bass tone and the bass line is really cool. Having the other elements playfully dance around it would be cool imho.

Thanks man. Really appreciate the feedback and I agree. Working on some new stuff with a different and less off the grid approach.
@BiggChev Very smooth! Love the syncoped piano stabs, woodwinds are a great add on to keep things interesting. Nice touch on the snare rolls. Solid beat!
@Kane the MOD Sound selection is dope, all the ingredients are there... But I do have to agree with @BiggChev here. For me it's the rhythm that puts me off. I feel like it needs some kind of continuous groove in order to work.
