Had to do some serious rework on the original sample. Separated the samps form the melody and forced them both into stereo in Audition, rex'ed it up in recycle, threw in into Reason, turned it from 3/4 to 4/4, increased the tempo with no distortion (My secret way... hee hee) Kicked the drums real hard and put my stank on it! Watch for my drops in the verse.
UPDATE 3/31/08: I've put a nice ending on this one now. Also, I have done a little sample work to introduce each verse

Killer bro! nothing more i can say...

ONE
Would I be able to put some vocals on this track ?
Actually I was thinking about getting two or maybe three MCs if I can't get into a booth myself anytime soon. I figured MakeTunes.com would be my first stop. So lay something down to it, 1-3 verses, and send it to me via E-Mail. C4PR1C0RN.0N3@Gmail.com. So the long short of it is yeah go ahead.
It'll do what it do till it done

NIce one bro. Great sample usage. I know they said it but I gotta too! Everything sounds classicly smooth. Old school is right and this right here is what it is all about. Props bro! Props to you Capricorn One!
