@V.J. Retro nice sampled beat. The drums feel a bit off but nevertheless somehow work really well.
The chops and the beat stops are great. I am a sucker for soul samples so this really hits home for me. Nice variations and the texture is coherent, but that said the drums knock as hard as @P.A.T. s beat. To @P.A.T. s beat: I appreciate the melodies and textures of the track. It works really well together.

@V.J. Retro I agree with @Kane the MOD about the drums but they work. Good chops and the scratches are dope.

@P.A.T. Really smooth. Drums fit really well in the mix. Dope shit.

I really like the sample and that early 2000s style flip. The scratches are cool and add a little extra flavour. The transition into the second phrase sounded a bit abrupt, but still works. Did you sample this from vinyl or use a vinyl sim on it? It's hard to tell if that 'crackle/pop' is baked in or a plug in of sorts sitting on top. I really liked the 404/DJ style FX, but felt they cut a bit too hard. Even the kick felt a bit over compressed...which is weird because it does kinda suit the era of this sound. I fucks with it!

@P.A.T.

I dig this vibe. It has that pseudo-horror vibe that a lot of trap has. But then that lift at 0:47 -ooooooweee! This has a blend of Mannie Fresh, Modern Trap, and Neptunes....really cool! One of the better mixes I've heard from you overall.

Again, you have a great sense of melody. I don't think we could ever collab on a beat, because we have such different tastes in sound/sample selection lol. Overall, really enjoyed this, especially that dubby outro.

Thanks. I used a vinyl simulation. I forget which plugin I used because there is a variety of them.
