I realize I was blissfully ignorant f this part of the forum. Cabracan, I just checked out a few tracks of yours and I like it. Sometimes I thought you were emphasising some words too much, but well, it's all a process. I like it, just heard what you did with Ol Evil Eye - one of my favorite tracks on Riddlebox, and I think you did a fairly good job! Even with the lyrics.

One thing, because I read that you were glad to find a rhyme for twelve in german (it is difficult in german, won't argue about that) - for me, that part didnt work so well. zwölf-Gehölz seems to me like a rhyme just for the purpose. But maybe it's just me. And sometimes, I think, you're putting too many words in one line, in those your rap sounds kinda rushed to me.

Keep up the good work!

on a side note: It's funny. In Germany we're usually watching movies translated (/dubbed?) in german, so every US actor has got a german dubbing actor. As a child I thought for years Arnie sounds like he sounds because I watched those movies knowing he naturally speaks german. (Normally every german actor acting in US movies dubs him- or herself.) But wrong - in Germany Arnie's got another dubbing actor than himself - because of his Austrian accent, that nobody would've understood in a natural way in Germany.

Thank you very very much for checking me out Digga! A german feedback!!

I´m in training with the mixing stuff and i didn´t know hoow to cut breath out at the time i did Ol Evil Eye but i´m glad you like it, The lyrics were a challenge. To get the story over well was harder than i thought. 

The Mixtape should sound alot better now.

Ok i´ll try to remeber that with the words. You got an example track for me so i really know what you mean?

And yeah the zwölf gehölz rhyme is pretty much for purpose cuz i was thinking hard about htis one haha.

-Interesting side note. Didn´t know that.

Would you say that i sound like Arnie(In American dub though) too?

Haha, no, I didn‘t think of it until it‘s been mentioned and even now I don‘t think you sound like Arnie – neither like his real voice nor like his dubbing actor. :D

I am searching for an example and I must say, maybe I got it wrong. Look at »Abracadabracan« for instance – to me your rap seems kinda rushed (also etwas gehetzt, nur dass wir uns nicht missverstehen), but I guess it‘s just the style of this track. So I cant say if it‘s a technical flaw or just me, who dont like this style. At first these lines came to my mind -
[...]Ich entstamme aus dem Zeitfluss des antiken Maya-Reiches
ich habe großen Einfluss auf deine Gedankenreisen, lass mich […]
but as I said, I guess it fits, it‘s just this kind of style of this track that I don‘t like that much. After listening to a couple of tracks being more focused on this aspect, it‘s nothing I noticed more than once or twice. Listening to "Medikamente" for example, there‘s this line
[…] und baue Sprengsätze in meinem Keller
und immer wenn du es rumsen hörst, war ich wieder schneller
die Nacht leuchtet viel viel heller […]
In »war ich wieder schneller« are too many syllables I think. Same in "Welcome to the family" within the line "und wenn ich untertauche, ist es die Polizei, die mich sucht"  (btw, where's this sample "welcome to the family" from?). But dont worry, especially »Medikamente« is a really good track with a great hook and an awesome beat!

Maya Maske is newer than the Mixtape »Abracadabracan« is on, isnt it? Sounds a lot better to me, I must say.

Overall – good work!

 

I wish I was more talented musically, but that's not my business. I‘m into writing instead – a couple months ago I wrote a short story based on the track "Prom Queen" just for fun. If you‘re interested (or anybody else of course, if anybody wants to try or test his or her german... :) ), you can read it right here: >click< it‘s six pages long.

(Once, I also wrote a short story in english that was based on »Headless Boogie«, but I was ~14 years old and did it as a homework for school. I had to read it to the class and everybody was disgusted with the details, my english teacher underlined it saying »well written, but a very weird imagination«. Haha. Ah, I didnt think of that in a long time, I‘m not exactly sure where to find it, I‘d have to look for it. Anyways, if someone is interested... ^^‘)

Awesome man thank you. The too many syllables Problem is something i recognized too and i'm working to fix it for Future tracks. Thanks for the Props i appreciate that.

Yeah Maya Maske is my New Project i'm working on and i'm glad that you recognized that, i guess i'm doing something better there. Also it's all own beats. No More youtube jacking (the Medikamente beat is From yt too so props to that beatmaker and the welcome to the family Sample is from avenged sevenfold - welcome to the family)

Not everbody needs to be musically talented and Your Story about prom Queen is a good read! I just read a few lines but i'm hungry for More now. Keep doing it. I bet you could give my Abracadabracan back up Story a better touch than me.
