Definitely cool--and an interesting vocal quality to the bass synth line.  Formant filter?  Or were you actually singing that part with a synth inflection?  Impressive!

dat hi hat pattern, really interesting work here. It could definitely do with a little more variation but maybe the unique quality of this one is just how minimal it is. The (sax?) part is a nice addition but some of the notes just feel a little off in timing. Are you using a grid for all of this or is it all played out live and unedited in a DAW?

Thanks, no singing here, all just instruments I "found" synths and brassy type synths. Glad you enjoyed.

The lack of variation is because I modeled the structure after a hip hop structure (leaving 16 bars for a vocalist), but I have no vocalist hah. I call the part a "lazy trombone" you're talking about, it's supposed to be brassy but it's cheap. I played live with quantization on, but this is something I'm trying to get away from for the reason you stated. I agree there's more fine tuning that could be done. Thanks for listening!
