ukulele beat

This week i grabed the ukulele.For recording i used a Tascam dr-05. I think the sound is quite nice, given that it is maybe the cheapest recoder you can get.
Drums and synths are all done inside the DAW.

Hope you enjoy...
Have a nice week!

I like how you've been mixing these organic sounds with the synths and beats.  I'll take all the ukelele and acoustic guitar tracks you want to offer!

Solid composition while not straying too far. The ukulele is a nice touch, even if it's not doing too much work.

Melancholischer HipHop ist Dein Genre wie mir scheint, da passt die Ukulele prima rein. Sehr chillig und schön. Weiterso.

i like the tascam dr-05 smile. also digging the blend of acoustic instruments and digital instrumentation (especially when the subs come in). i feel like a few parts get a little empty and could use more mid-range sounds to flesh out, but i like the hip hop grooves you keep dishing out. the only other thing that comes to mind is maybe send your drums through a compressor to fatten them up a bit?

Satisfyingly crunchy...and great choice of minor key uke in there. Well done!

One of this week's best. Much appreciated!

yaaaaa!  really nice!

Nice job of mixing the different sounds together, simple melody with the ukulele, but adds so much, nice scratches, keep it going, I’m really enjoying all your music

Sweet uke strums with that deep 808 kick!

Fun chill song, creates nice mood. Love that Uke! Was playing around with one this week too. Good job putting it all together!
