It's not even strings though, it's any Airy sounding Pad. I did that to give it an eery sound. I didn't use any strings in this beat actually. It's all synth pads. The only "real" things are the drums and Piano.

i'd take out the 1st airy pad then. it doesnt sound errie, just outta place. the 2nd set is hot tho

I really don't know what's so bad about it. "Musically," it fits well. It gives the track an atmospherical sound that the beat can follow, just as strings can do.

sounds a little dated to me, not sure if I can actually hear somebody on the track. Maybe kind of movie background-ish, ?? Can't really explain, just not very polished sounding.
Just giving my 2 cents!

not everyone is gonna love your shit tho, I'll make somethin I think is the hottest shit, and people wont give a fuck about it, lol

lol, true, but it is dated. It's not neccessary "NEW" like I said. I made it a few months ago actually. I was just searching through my beats and thought it sounded cool enough to show you guys. It was one of my lost beats I completely forgot about. It ain't my favorite of course because it doesn't POP like I usually like to make them, but I do like it's atmospherical-ness. Like you said, might sound cool in a movie. I won't post up my truely favorite beats.

He meant dated as in like, 8-10 years ago dated.

You don't need to explain yourself or say you wouldn't post your favorite beats or that the track is this many months old, if you post a track, take the criticism and move on, no need to explain yourself homie. Don't post your music if you can't take criticism properly, some people just aren't going to like your shit!

Your on the right track. You need more practice, but don't we all?

Peace.

Where I'm I not taking the criticism? I see no problem in explaining why I did something or not. I wasn't getting mad or anything. See I thought he meant dated as in low quality, no need to get all upset because I mis-understood that. As far as being dated like 8-10 years old, I actually like that better, I can't stand new Hyphy/Crunk/Snap shit, there's really no real musical elements in that shit.

The real truth is I wouldn't post up my truely favorite beats, too many fools jack ideas and you know that. I see nothing wrong in saying that. It still doesn't mean I don't like this beat I just posted up. It's just a different style of what I've been doing lately. This beat is a darker style.

BOO BOO....this what Im talking about..its Robotic

Please explain that robotic-ness. I don't fully understand that term. Does it have something to do with the sounds, is it too digital sounding, too quantised or what? I really wanna know. This the 2nd time you said that, but you don't explain how it sounds robtic.

Here's some more beats of mine that I posted in other threads if you guys want to hear them. Feel free to critize, I don't give a fuck. Sorry for sounding like a bitch in my previous posts.

1. http://www.zshare.net/audio/28087003404a50/ (uptempo, newer style)

2. http://www.zshare.net/audio/2762157400f769/ (atmospherical,thinking shit)

3. http://www.zshare.net/audio/1762937342f577/ (Bay Area Mobb style Funk, 90's style)

4. http://www.zshare.net/audio/1762937342f577/ (Just a fun sounding G-Funk beat, simple)

5. http://www.zshare.net/audio/27659556fc76a6/ (Late 90's G-Funk, needs a deeper phatter sounding bassline I think)

6. http://www.zshare.net/audio/20574815a20766/ (Just a collection of 6 beats, I was trying to show how I use the Lounge Lizard Electric Piano VST plugin)

I know I think Zshare has been fucking up lately on certain shit. But if you haven't heard the entire thing, I think you need to, different elements come in. I noticed that on some other guys link that he posted in the Producers thread. Just download it.

BTW, what do you mean that you can't hear the bassline and Piano now? Whatever, I guess it is repetive, but ain't most hiphop repetive? I mean it ain't jazz. Most hiphop is loops anyways, turning them off and on to create a bit of change and introducing a new element here and there. I think I added enough though (I don't want to create a fucking orchestra, lol), if you can tell as the track plays on, I build it up by introducing new sounds.

Listen to that beat #4 in that list of my beats I just posted above. Now that shit is repetive. But I like it cuz it's oldschool. haha :cool:

I think what he means by repetitive is that it loops after one bar instead of a melody that lasts longer than a bar...Also the melodies are simple, which is not a bad thing at all, its just a matter of taste...Musically your beats are str8, theres no conflicting pitches or anything, i think if u changed the instrumentation your beats would sound a lot better...Alot of those synthesized instruments sound like those polyphonic ringtones...good work tho man, like the other dude said, work on learning piano chords it should help alot..
