There’s a lot of layers to this beat, there was so much good stuff in the sample I really wanted to capture the upbeat vibe and there was so much to use. I built it up gradually, started by working out the flip that plays from 0:31 and then added more chops ontop that fit the more positive vibe ( 0:51 ) and then combined them both to give the track more weight. Cause of that I knew the drums had to hit hard otherwise they’d be drowned out by all the layers of the sample, so I chopped drums from Get Out Of My Life Woman, and went crazy on the layering to make sure they were on the same level as the sample and cut through the mix. One of the main things that stood out to me about this sample when I was digging was the ‘Don’t Cry’ vocals, made me think of J Dilla’s classic off Donuts straight away so I knew I had to chop them up to layer ontop of the beat. I was going to make them a bigger part of this instrumental version but I decided to keep the structure of the beat the same, I like the way it builds and then the vocals become more prominent at the end.

Overall I’m definitely happy with how this turned out - hopefully people like the positive vibe, always feels good to make music with this sort of energy. Peace!
