Not at all sure about this one. Had a lot of technical challenges with this one. Slower beat required more consideration of instrument selection and placement. Also had to get various samples to sound 'good' at this beat and discovered the muddiness that can be introduced by tweaking the sample frequency. Not a great tune, but a great learning experience.

Novation Launchpad, Thor, GarageBand provided the tech and zing. Cafe.mp3 sample courtesy of moson on FreeSound.org

Thanks. I love that I'm learning with each track. And even more by listening to other's tracks!

So chilled... The percussion is really nice too.. Maybe change it up a bit sometimes?

Good suggestion. After listening to it a bit more I quickly got bored with the beat. Yeah, a bit of changeup would help. Thanks!
