ok, here you go mate

basically all you have is a nice kick and bass combo and some samples dropped on it. i like the result as i like minimal arrangements..but you should add more elements nevertheless..

first thing with minimal offbeat is to not get boring, i always struggle with that, anyway this is what i would do:

- some more percussion to make the groove more interesting. try "alternating" percussion or one shots with character every 4 or 8 bars to make an "extende loop" effect. you could listen to

for good examples how to make minimal yet driving percussion and lead/sample variations
- drop in some chords or distorted saw/fm lead notes with long delays to give the track more depth.. and drive
- create some sort of "story" for the listener to follow to, melodies, arpeggios, 303 riffs, chords, percussion progressions whatnot..

anyway, i really like it as it is already: good.

thanks alot for the feedback mate

.. it's nice to finally get both good and bad feedback from someone + some adwises on how to make it better. You have absolutly right in some of the things you say

but it's my first real song so i'm still a neewb, and that makes it hard to produce a really interresting song

+ i'm not so good at using all of the things in the program yet, so it's a bit difficult to produce really good sounds that flows each other and it's hard to hear the things it needs to be better. But I deffinetly will try some of the thing you have said

cheers
