Rhythms, speeds & skanks

Actually, I decided to simplify, so I got rid of that second beat and simply doubled up the first one. I also added some bass and effects and am now well on the way to finish my track. I uploaded a snippet, so you can hear for yourself.

Is this proper technique? <BR> <BR>I have a whole set of slow regg...
