Greetings The Interruptor,
Thanks so much for your feedback, it means a lot to me
I definitely agree about the drum fills, to be quite frank it's the first time I ever play drum fill from scratch so I was already pretty happy to reach something not completely off, I did notice what you mention (some inconsistency, I literally played different grooves on purpose thinking it would give more diversity, but that did sadly decrease the overall quality and don't quite match the general groove).... then was not in the mood to improve it, but I'm training specifically on this for the next riddim, I hope to get better on that!
Just to be sure we are talking about the same instrument, as there is two guitar-like synth sounds in the mix:
- The riddim sound, which follow roughly the bassline
- The skank, sometime the sound alone, sometimes with horns and hammond.
Which one are you referring to? Intuitively from your mention of "glass-like texture", I would guess the riddim one, is that right?
Glad you like it, and thanks for this fantastic website and forums.
