    The coolest thing about drill is for the first time I'm getting to watch subgenres be created and grow. Being a teenager this shit is awesome. Honestly, I don't really like a lot of drill artists all that much. But goddamn are the beats and all are interesting.
    Also good job J. Rent! This is one of the best beats you've made imo

    @TheDuckPhail 4 роки тому +27

    I mean it’s Nice to see j.rent improving a bit on the drill genre, but still, the beat is more a trap beat than a drill beat
    1. The kick gotta be like hitting super fkn hard (use the melo kick 1 and put a soft clipper on the master instead of a limiter)
    2. The 808 does not need to be distorted, but should be more of a bass line/sub bass, and then let the kick do all the work.
    3. U need a kick on every downbeat. The kick is also wayyyy to busy. Keep it simple.
    4. The 808 is also too busy, plus it needs to be sterioized.
    I would def look at 808 melos dior deconstruction on genius to get a better idea of how drill beats work/are made

    What you told about the future of Drill is what I also feel but the same thing was being predicted for screamo trap and I won't consider screamo trap to be super famous. It was liked by handsfull of audience. Drill can be next trap but it is still in its' initial stage.
    Anyways would love to have drill incorporated into billboard chart topping songs.
