Well, I thought they didn't sounded punchy enough, as always... Maybe I'll raise the pad a little bit, because as I said, it all started as a very minimal, almost melodyless drum jam

Thanks for listening and commenting, Jim!

Nice job, drums certainly don't sound lame anymore, have to love YouTube for finding some last minute vocal samples or soundbites

I personally think the pads are at a good volume since you have the trap-like drums with their dancing hats.  It's like the drum kit is the center piece and the pads are just lightly holding it up   A cool laid back track!

That's exactly what I was aiming for, man! I built the track like a beat from a drum machine, even letting some moments without any pads. In fact, I added the pads because it sounded too "dark" and minimal, so maybe those really simple chords would add some emotional warmth to the whole piece.

I wish I had your skills to build great chord progressions
