So cooooool!! I'm honoured that you chose to remix my track. I love the direction you took it, it's heaps more trappy than I know how to do. Love the way the beats develop through the track. I really enjoyed listening to this

Went back to check the "Tricks" track (say that fast three times): both versions are great; outstanding re-work on your part!

I'm really glad you enjoyed it, Avarine, specially since I wasn't able to keep you properly posted on the progress due to lack of time. I must admit I'm pretty relieved

I've been working on it today, adding beats and pieces here and there (it seems that my main reverb was off the whole time when rendering because of me updating macOS and not updating Max for Live accordingly). Yet still I haven't got a final bassline

Never thought of those beatbox beats as "trap" (maybe the rolling hihats?). Guess I'm getting old and keep thinking about "dirty south" when I hear a flaring 808

Again, thank you very much for letting me use your song and take it to a new different direction.

Thanks a lot, Jim. It means a lot that people like you continue to give a steady feedback. Also, I'm happy you enjoyed both versions. Hope I did not digress from the original too much

I just checked out Avarine's original tricks track and I can see why you wanted to remix it.  The cool opening arp line is very inspiring.  Your remix builds on that and has a nice underwater feel cuz of the slowed down trip hop feel.  I think it's more trip than trap imho

Thanks a lot for both checking my version and Avarine's original. I really love the "underwater" remark, and personally I'm completely out of touch with the current "trap" thing. Guess I'm old enough to consider it just plain old 808 hip hop, though I still dig the occasional Hudson Mohawke track (he's really imaginative and good)

Thanks again for listening, man!
