Tried to not sound like I was biting Bullion's shit from the "Key of Dee", haha.

really dope beat. Drums are a little dry, but overall it's really good. Nicely done.

Like, not enough reverb?

or just not anything...just sounds stock. Couple lil tricks you can do is double up the snare with even a different snare every other hit or so, add a lil reverb, a lil distortion or just EQ em till they sound nice n punchy. Same goes for kick. Putting an accent on alternating hi hats can give a nice, more "real" effect too.

I find the first beat pretty boring, and I think a lot of it has to do with the drums. I think it's more than them being dry. They drain something from what would otherwise sound like a dreamy, ambient track because the sample and the changes are great.

I like the 2nd beat a lot more, although you could vary the drums a little, even if it's just the occasional fill or drop. But the vibe is very cool.
