Dizzayummm!!!! omg The re-recorded vocals on this are fire compared to your first draft. I still wanna steal that beat from you giggle Sounds like Timbaland on an excellent day. I meant to ask you last week, what is that sample at the 2:34 mark? Is it Jimi Hendrix's 'Fire'?

This sounds a little different for you. I do like the beat but I want more changes. One word to descibe it to me; dramatic

Thanks for sharing

Well you know you got the slamminest beats on here. Its good to hear some synths and chords. I like them movement. I can see where the mmelody is going, but I think your natural voice should be moe upfront. It will showcase the melody more. Overall very experimental and explorative. You guys are really branching out doing creative stuff!

The heavy echoed and systematik vocals and dramatic tone is also inspired by u.

I wanna bring out the vox alot more! Thank you! I think it does sound drowned.

I use MTV Generator.

I take bunches of samples of a snare, hi hat, bass, from different CD's & LP's and just make SOMETHING out of the things I have put together.

I then record them on 2 VHS Tape..then I take the Line In wire and plug them in2 the computer and record them like that.

*saluations 2U paisleypark4...this one found your DreamBoi refeshing...its always Beauteous 2 hear an original expression...when i worked n radioland years ago the programmers would say if a track doesn't grab yo ear n the 1st 15-20 seconds it ain't gonna fly~u got what u need 2 fly bro!!!

this track brought some thoughts i'd like 2 toss at ya since u said u wondered about some new ideas...just somebody out here n the world speaking like its friends n the room brainstorming...afterall, ya got somethin' here/hear...

don't know much about tech aspects, my thang is more from the write/sing/play vibe...that run @ about the 1:43-1:47 moves, i'd drop that somewhere u've got space n the 1st 30 sec (@:22) draw folks deeper n...definately agree with Littlewing, put the natural up front & make it warmer...the echo feels 2 tinnie with treble on it 4B, fatten the bottom=bass line/accent drum(everybody grooves 2 a fat Bottom)...that Black Ivory, mercy, dust B off & spin @ 33RPM=that works (thought i was the only one who still had that album), does it seem it could fit somewhere else 2? absolutely love that fade...Bgins & ends with resonance; stays with ya...

totally co-sign 7salles, get a true instrument n yo hands 2 C what comes...
check with a school n your area that has a band, find out if u can rent an instrument from a music shop, sit with it 4 awhile & C what feels right B4 u spend yo cash cuz~u already working what u got...don't know 4 sho' But seems there is somebody u know now that could help u get going down that road or assist/collaborate till u get there....

hope i didn't go on 2 long: i heard it, i felt it, i spoke on it...as u Believe so u receive so work yo vision DreamBoi cool

WWOOWW! I havent recieved such a review and critique that seep in a long time!! THANK YOU!!! Wow!!!! (Picking up my mouth from the floor), I don't know where 2 begin!!!

'You are SO right about the space in 1:22 I didnt know what to do with that, so that's a great idea to add the sped vox in the middle. I should add a fatter Drum bass track in it. I sampled that from "Heart Of The City" by Jay-Z, whom Kanye sampled it from whomever he took it from... lol

For the Black Ivory Sample I am planning on adding more of that in an extended album version of the song which I have already recorded some at least. That album actually was re-released last year so I hurried and got it on CD smile

I really do wanna just pick up a damn guitar and just go at it for a while! LOL. I have a keyboard and harmonica but that's it falloff . I did'nt know that I could rent instruments! I will be looking into that one!

Once again thank you so much for slicing it up so I can hear every aspect on the song from your pov. I actually pulled it up again and listened 2 it reviewing the time scales you were mentioning on.

This is so so cool. Thank you again.
