Hi GMCers!
Just finished recording a short demo. It will be remixed by a friend of mine who will use some parts of this demo for a hip hop kinda song.

He said he would send me his version tonight. It will be interesting for me to see which parts he will use and how they will sound in a hiphop'ish song.
So what do you think about it?

Well rock and hip hop have a mixed history, Living Colour, Bodycount etc all tried it with varying levels of success. Theres no reason why your demo wont work in a hip hop context although hip hop tunes tend more to rely on beat and basslines rather than melody. Nice demo though mate!

It'll be interesting to hear what your friend does with that! I can see/hear all sorts of possibities!!!

As for the question of Rock + Hip Hop, does it work?
Aerosmith + Run DMC. 'Nuff said!!!

Cool, it can sound good with some cool hip hop beats, it's simple enough. Let us know how it worked!
