Hoodie: didn't really transcend the original imo... tempo plods, really basic chops and an all-too thick layer of vinyl sim.

Asha C: A lot airier than hoodies and I like that you got the synth in there, some really choice layering, but tempo is still a little soporific and depressing, like a funeral march.

PARKER: This I like a lot more - beat has a bounce and the filtering really makes the chops come to life.... took the sample and made it more than the original. I'm curious to know what the sample is too... was a nice slice of soul.

gis-sverige: this is sooo under the radar... man - i really don't know what to say it just gets under my skull and tickls my brain

l i f : If i'd had a bit more time I wouldve passed this thru the sp one more time to boost the volume/compression to make it pop a bit harder... hope you can all find the volume knob/slider and crank it up that way.

orange: heh, i'm smiling... some kinda kung fu vibes slipped in here from the other battle mbe..? enyways nice beat... sounds better when I crank the speaker-volume.

vote: ! G i S !

asha! real nice drum processing, but give that shit a little more swing next time and get my head bobbin!
PARKER be on that 'exactly what i wanted to hear' type shit,, every time (also appreciate the good looks g)
gis got the best drums in the game for sure, on that avant-garde-lofi-trip
l i f; the synth layering is kool for sure, but the lack of variation gets hella sleepy
orangee, glad to hear someone used that TC sample !

goin wit PARKER JORDAN

Yeh cheers hood, yU know i think i kno where you're coming from referring to the vocal sample, but if you really think there's a lack of variation then you're really not listening ;-)

Rock on, rock on brother

Hood: Liked that you just used the sample straight without using the drums, real lofi sound!!nice!!!

parker Jordan: Nice drum sound!! all round lofi goodness!!

GIS: Niiiice man!!! that sub kick is sweet and the subtle drums give it a sweeet chilled vibe, real atmospheric too.

LIF: NIIIICE, enh=joyed the elements coming together like the synth over the top and the vocal sample, like a classic 8 bit remix!!!

Orange line: NIIIICE, loved that pulsing feel you got going on with the drums and compression! good work

Faves are Lif and GIS, gonna go for GIS !!! nice work

@Parker Jordan: All the drum sounds were from your clip at the end and timestretched to match each others tempo, used the good mama synth and Yubas piano sample. Looking forward to the next one !

Parker- i suspect that this type of dope shit is expected from you. i cant imagine you disappointing anytime soon. a real head nodder

gis- ima have to agree that these were the tightest drums my hats off to ya

Lif- that layering....i wish i was ill like that man lol

all in all i think your all pretty freaking rad at this. while i only started useing the 404 within the month or so the learning curve has been really fun as well as my short time on the forums

No! I missed the voting on this round. Been busy trying to sell a car. Covering rust and make the dashboard shine… You get a lot of – odd – mail, text and telephone calls.
I let HøøD R∆† slect samples. I will probably not take part in #5.
SORRY!!! :cry:
