Flo Rida Vs. Matt Price

This is a remix I did with the Flo Rida track Low. I like the chord progression that I used because it uses elements from songs like 'For Your Love' and Bobby Darin's 'Spilsh Splash.' I was having a hard time with the drums but then I got a new program called BFD2 and it had the sounds I was looking for. I hope you like it and feel free to leave a comment!
