    @Fade - nice. Always wanted one but will probably get the MPD as I don't slice much samples.

    I'm planning on buying an MPC style pad controller. Was thinking of getting the Akai MPD 226. Anyone got any experience with it?

    What Kind Of MIDI Controller(s) Do You Own and/or Use?

    Evolution e keys 49 - I didn't even buy it. It was my mum's and she didn't need it anymore (she used to be a music teacher). Very basic but has so got a lot of mileage under the belt and I like the feel of the cheap ones. It does have pitch bend and modulation. I actually trigger a lot of drums...

    @EffectProd_ - Very cool. Goes hard. Industrial. Like the bass and piano arrangement. @slimegreenbeats - Nice vibe. Nice melody. More bass! @DeadBassRecords - Nice track like the vibe. Nice drum rhythm and hi hat programming. Bass is good. I think the piano and plucked strings should be...

    Really liked Beat#1 - nice job whoever did it! Beat 2 I could see Weezy on and it would be cool.

    Thanks dude. You're track is really nice. Definitely nailed the latin vibe. Drums and bass work well together. I thought you should have the brass a bit louder in the mix? I thought a bit more presence and punch would do it good.

    Cool track, I like it. It goes pretty hard. Drums are well sequenced and the kick is nice and punchy. Like the other sounds and textures. I felt like I wanted the bass to be louder though!

    This is pretty cool. Got a French house vibe. I like all the synths and melodies, I think the levels need a bit more balancing and drums could do with some more treatment to sound more punchy and unique.

    @stcbeats - really great tune. Liked it all. Only thing I thought was the main arp key melody doesn't change in tone. Try messing with the ADSR and automating it so at some points the sustain or release becomes longer, or go the other way and make it more clippy. @Therapy.strumm - nice tune...

    What rap sounds like in 2020

    @thedreampolice - love that video, I think part 2 is better! @OGBama - yeah not really a fan of those guys. Future has made a career out of being almost unintelligible!

    What rap sounds like in 2020

    Yeah it sucks. We're a long way away from 3 stacks. Everything else has been dumbed down in popular culture so it follows rap too. At least UK rap / grime is still more lyrical. (most of it).

    This is awesome but they're not wearing spandex and there's no silver glue stains around their nose.

    @Memento Beats - liked the track. The description says hard trap beat but I found it quite relaxing? Don't know if that says more about me! But yeah liked the melody that weaves through the song and the strings support it nicely. It's well put together but I find it hard to visualise someone...

    @Yogi Beatz - thank's for the feedback - yeah left it unresolved which I know bothers some people! I listened to to Drowning. Really nice. You definitely left lots of space to let the track breathe (and space for artist). I think the production is very warm and ethereal and has a bit of a Noah...
