Yo, so I haven't posted much in a while cause I don't like to upload most of my stuff anymore, but I am still working, today I just finished up 2 beats that I've been working on, on and off for about a month. I decided to post one of those up and it's different style than I usually have and the reason for that is, now I don't just go and work on a random beat and hope to get something good, I usually wait till I get a concept in my head, like this one that I'm posting, and then create a beat around the concept. I've noticed this way has been working better for me and it helps me get out of my norm and comfort zone. Anyways, enjoy and please give honest feedback.

Song Title: One Man Army
Listen/Download: Here

*Intro strings are sampled, rest is my own composition*

Thanks,
Tash8

I actually love the gun-clicking.
The melody get stuck in your head, and it's not a bad melody, but I think it gets just a little repatitive.
And I reeeally love the drums man, great job on that! :y:
Wouldn't mind using this for something in the future!

Great job Tash! :y:

man that intro is epic as fuck, sick job on that.

Verse 1: its all good till 0:45 when those strings? come in its to loud to like, fucks up the mood alittle. definitely should lower that, its annoying. (btw just relized there's also a orchestra in there, that shit suits 100% the strings are loud)

chorus: fucked up, sounds very homo, way to happyish to be considered a military type beat. no matter what chorus (vocals) you lay on that, it will suck, because that shit sounds like some disney play school shit lol.

verse 2: your trying way to hard to make the beat not repetitive, because i think you thought the mayne melody is to repetitive, but that's wrong, you should of done something to the main melody, not switch up the beat and fuck up the mood.

snare is weak, makes it sound not professional. bass pissed me off to, way to soft man. Changes though out the beat pissed me off, cause you over do it. Its seems like you got to paranoid when making this beat, so you made changes and shit in the verses cause the main melody was to repetitive. Point of making a beat is to make it catchy in a way, and from that beat all i got was 20 seconds of catchiness and the rest was pure homo. Intro is to good for this beat, sounds all dark and strong, and then beat plays i hear some jungle fever shit lol what the fuck?

the intro is good :y:

the verse is cool too... altho I'm not too sure if you wanted to have a dark army vibe, but the main melody wasn't that dark... like xray said, the strings at 0:45 are little loud and they change the mood of the beat, but it's not necessarily a bad thing, if you wanted the mood to change, it's fine like that IMO.

as for the hook, a part of me likes it, but I can understand xray's opinion, it has a somewhat happy feel so again, if you wanted a dark army vibe, I'm not sure it was the best option

but you still did a good job overall, I liked the orchestral instruments you used, they sounded nice :happy:

thanks man and i was necessarily going for a Dark Vibe. i was just going for a militarish vibe and in the hook i was trying to say something along the lines of "we are going to win, a lose is not an option, each battle won is inch closer to victory" not those words obviously but that MOOD... so i figured it had to be somewhat happier...
