Does this not count as a cover track?
Anyway, quite decent, I think it's generally got a nice sound and vibe. I'd tune that conga up a bit though, it sounds a bit flat (in a pitch sense) to me...I guess I'm the only one who's disturbed by that though!
I automatically play sounds with slow attacks slightly ahead of the beat, otherwise they will indeed feel out of time...and the feel is what it's all about, in the end, is it not? You can of course do the same thing in a sequencer by just nudging it a little bit in the right direction (it's especially good if your software will allow to nudge backwards and forwards by the millisecond, you can be very precise about such things then, if you feel like it).
I have to say, I rather hoped that some kind of melody would come in as the piece went on, but as I've felt that with a lot of your compositions, and nobody else has mentioned that when commenting on them, I think that's more indicative of my own preferences than anything else. I get into very analytical moods at times, and start seeing (or hearing) everything else in terms of what I'm working on at a particular time, and that's I think exactly what I'm doing here. So, go your own way and don't mind me!
This is a style which I've never quite found a home in myself, so it's always interesting for me to hear what people are doing with it, especially with regards the kinds of beats and types of sounds used. I like the sound and mood of this one, and it was very interesting to hear.
