You can cast up to 10 unique votes. 8)

No, but if it turns out we don't have a clear top 10 of winners, we might have to think of something. For now though, please cast all 10 votes if possible. It seems we have a clear top 8, but a few draws below that.

mans - this took FOREVER!
looking at the results, i realize my tastes are not the same as everyone else's!

here are my comments on everyone's stuff. very cool pieces guys, congrats to all. stars next to the dudes i voted for (my fave was IIIII):

Adru – solid beat, epic tv show theme
Amable – really like the heavy 'break' part & FM synth-style keys
Antee – great sounding drums, nice little hi-note-lo-note break
BlackSnow – mixed a little quiet, but I like the phrasing.
Computers – holy disco! Boozy and crazy.
Count Sierackula – dark and thick, that's a menacing kick mans.
*Creep Nasty – fuzzy stuff, I really like that chromatic descending scale
Dibiase – nice pace, dark head-nodder. One of the few trax that created a song rather than a beat IMO
*DJ Just Jeff – hey that's pretty hot! I like that second beat coming in over the chord drone. Harder head nodz! Also, a good length to the track, and good pace.
*Dman – just like candy drum riff! Veeeery dark and creepy, cool. This is a simple beat but I dig it.
Doctakay – good pace, good subtle sounds in the background. Woah, fast end!
Elhuana – cool change up after the intro, sloppy in a really good way. Also created a song rather than a beat. For some reason reminds me of the old Rastan video game (that's good, btw).
Ellaguru – woah, heavy comp on those drums. Very cool. Hectic track.
Fauna – i'm actually pretty happy with how this turned out. Which is rare, LOL
IG9 – crazy stutter / gated beat. Fuck man! Its like you're mad at us! lol
*IIIII – cool abstract intro to a metallic head nodder. Hm. And I really like the melodic break. And a slight return!
*Jaylost – drunken cowboy intro, very cool warpy melody, solid beats.
Jgriz – huh. Totally different sound. Cool. Minimal electro.
Jmoki – techno horror movie. Solid.
*JonWayne – cool phrasing, like the gutted samples. Like the acid dose that kicks in bout half-way thru...crazy structure
Juxt – hard drums mans. Simple beat, but very cool.
*Kel – where is the voice sample from? Very understated beat, stripped down with good shots. Cool.
Lazyfoot23 – good, straight beat.
Oaxaca – sloppy head-nodder. Like the beat and how warped everything sounds.
Ormo – digital sunrise. Very gritty. Cool stuff, but goes on a bit long IMO
Project Waxwick – pretty cool stuff. Like the miami vice intro and how you bring in the drums.
*Sp404beatz – stuttery, fragmented, I like it when it gets going. Cool outro too.
SteveC – a little too D&B for me, but cool you were able to get this from the samples
*Teewok – great pace, good melody, solid head nodder. Good piece, mans.
Timfromtexas – good piece, solid shots
Wax Inspector – cool pacing, kind of a Massive Attack feel with the grinding drums and Dub shots, more of a storyteller feel.
*Wundrkut – didn't like the intro, but really liked the beat right after! Very cool pace, good filters on the keys, and like the little guitar cutz.

the faces next to it means it got a vote. props to everyone

8) adru- nice flip, nice beat
amable-cool, i thought it could have flowed better though
8) antee- dope beat man. good job on tweeking the drums
blacksnow- not bad, but drums wernt hitting too hard and were a little too loud in the mix
8) computers- dope melody. i like the way you combined it with the drums. has a nice boom bap sound.
count sieracula- rugged drums. and cool synth
8) creep nasty- i liked the way you did those drums. dope melody too
dibiase- dope beat but you were arguing with my mans dru so you didnt get my vote. nah , i gave you a vote:lol:
dj just jeff- dope beat, i maby melody could have been a little more solid. dope job on the drums
dman5000- close call but it just sounded too strange too me
doctakay- dope but still missing something
8) elhuana- nice, i like the way you did the melody
ellaguru- dope but it sounds too wild and unorganized
fauna- pretty good, if there wasnt so many dope beats you would get a vote
ig9- this is why you dont do drugs kids.jk just a little too out there
8) iiiii-nice bass melody and drums.
jaylost- dope, but i have a limited number of votes
jgriz- pretty nice, but a little too simple for a tuff battle
jmoki- a little too abstract for my taste. i though it could of bit more solid
8) johnwayne- nice, i like you way you did the melody
juxt- what the fuck is wrong with you? first you unsucessfully try recreating someone elses drums and then come with a wack melody over it. how bout you stay retired from the arena?
kel- good but you gotta come harder than that with this tough competition
lazyfoot- i thought the beat have been a little more solid
oaxaca- i wasnt feeling it so much at first. after that switch up it got more interesting.
ormo- sound like a exteremly lofi wild, you got some cool stuff going on there though.
project waxwick - sounded interesting
sp404beatz- not bad i thought it could have flowed better though
steve c- cool fx
8) teewok- plain old boom bap. probably my favorite beat here
timfromtexas- nice but too much dope competiton
8) wax- pretty dope melody and drums. the pitch makes the drums sound cool but also kills the drums punch.
wundrkut- dope. i like the way the bass and kick hit.
