    Hello, I'd like to present you my newest beat:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1iYe1XL8nzk

    edit: soundcloud link - http://soundcloud.com/japabeatz/lazybeat

    Could you give me any advice on mixing this song? So far I used loudness maximizer on a sum and then did provisory mix using Sennheiser HD 280 pro headphones.

    Thanks in advance!

    Mix seems fine to me, the 'beat' needs more.. um... variety... drama, some automation?

    Sounds more reggae than Hip Hop too.

    snare could do with a bit more attack and a bit of distortion on the bass ....be nice to hear a bridge too :) just my 2 cents mix is fine
