Kind of reminds of reminds of DJ Shadow or Dan The Automator with a Pete Rock vibe. I think the lowpass on the sample gives it the Pete Rock vibe while the bassline reminds me of DJ Shadow and the sample reminds me of Dan The Automator.
Yeah I know lol. Ive been studying his music/ technique for a while. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who's noticed that kind of stuff in his music. But Idk. I don't want to mimick his style EXACTLY, ya know? I kinda wanna take in my own direction. And thanks about the drum kit. I sampled it from a pretty dope drum break on a record I found in my gma's collection. It's a secret which break it is though hahaha. Anyhow, all in all...Thanks for the feedback, man. I'm glad you like my shit.
If Pete Rock's your main influence, you gotta make it a bit faster, quantize your drum track to a 16th-note triplet, and make those 8th-note hi-hats tighter! Still really feelin' it and lovin' the drum kit, bruh. Peace.
this beat is nice for reals 5*'s

Actually...DJ Shadow wasn't really that much of an influence on me. More Pete Rock than anything.
But thanks.
