Catching up with some old tracks I've been working on. I made a track for the 303 assignment - am keen to hear any feedback:

I did most of the ground work for this track a few months ago. Found it incredibly challenging keeping to 2 samples. Am really happy with the sounds I managed to create from this.
Was a bit of an issue with the drums and also ended up falling back on using some inspiration from the Nikki Nair example.
Feel I did an OK job in the end although wish I made some different decisions with the drums earlier on to make them punch through better in the end. Sometimes you just have to draw a line and move on from things though.\
Thanks for any listens and feedback

New Track - 303 Challenge
Nice work! Have commented on the track on your page, but overall it's a great job. The main groove is excellent and certainly got me moving! Some of the cymbals are a bit out though timing-wise, and the levels are a bit loud too, without many effects so they kind of jumped out a bit. Other than that though, everything's working pretty well together and in general, you've nailed the simplicity and made it work well from just a few samples, which is the aim of the assignment, so nice one!
