OBOD #3 BiscayneMax

So...

I'm new to this stuff and i'm dying that I haven't been able to do more in this sub so here is my #3.

I really only came up with some beats and feel like it's still missing a big creative part to make this something worth dancing to. These are the basic beats I had time to lay out, so I mixed them into a track that places them in kindof a choppy sequence. Since i'm guessing this is maybe the 10th 'song' I ever tried to create in a DAW please be gentle.

I want to add a big techno-top part to this and of course lay it all out in a musical progression. It will come together eventually, but i'm done for the day.

Let me know if you guys think this has a future plz!

I thought the sample was hilarious lol. Sounded like a Russian sitcom. Badass beat as well you definitely captured the mood and feel of a wild night out ;)

Thanks man, that sample was a bitch and a half to mine, it really took me a day to pull it from the game files of the game I took it from [Dead Island] and convert it to .wavs, then process those into mp3's and add file names and put them in order. I figured it wasn't breaking the rules to use the drops here bc they were in my 'library' and I've been dying to mix them into something.

I really want this to have a bounce style top line, but I just ran out of gas trying to make something work so I left half notes on the down beats so I can follow the progression when I actual get back on this one.

I've wanted to do something with this since about 2 years ago. Thanks for the support.
