Battle 117 - Beauty/Ugly

[Unfolding]

Hey fam, here's battle 117. Comp runs until UTC 00:00 on Thursday the 12th of July. Samples for this round are:
Horseback - Blood Fountain
Blavatsky - Hallelujah Sister Drum Loop

You can grab a few more of Blav's breaks here. The pack contains some awesome, super compressed breaks. I picked the Horseback sample because I love it when ugly bands make beautiful music. Get sampling!

Good choices! I'm on it!

Nice tune Mellow! Good to read you'll have a go too, Chopperman. Pity you were a bit late on the last battle, that beat was gnarly!

Think I might give the next few rounds a rest. Getting sick of seeing my pseudonym on so many threads around here! Time for someone else to take the lead, I don't want to look like a total dicktator.

Here's my entry. I'm getting far too intimate with reverse. Hope you like it x

Ill miss your beats. A SP-Beat battle rest can give some new energy.

This is my beat to Battle 117

Love it. Good work asha. This bass and the riff are deep and soulful

New guy here! I've been lurking and admiring the output of you guys for a while, and finally decided to take the plunge. Here is my contribution. It was made with Ableton, as the SP-404 (as awesome as it looks) is a bit too costly for me.

Lemme know what I can improve on! I'm new at this

Thanks for having a go, dude! Really like what you've done- its got a sweet 90's shoegazer vibe. Kinda like Slowdive when they went electronic (but with more drums). Great stuff! But I'm probably the wrong person respond objectively to a track like this.

Only catch is that seeing you made it in Ableton it won't be going in the poll. Your track will be given an honorable mention though. You're also welcome to keep submitting tracks for battles but as long as they aren't done in an SP they aren't elligible for voting. Its probably worth checking the rules here. Failing that you could always start an open challenge & set your own rules for the round!

Edit:

Ill miss your beats. A SP-Beat battle rest can give some new energy.

Cheers, Gis- that's pretty much the idea. Seems like battle beats are all I do these days! Time to re-evaluate the motivations.

Got a beat coming, Chopperman?

[mustacheninja]

Ah, I guess I should have read through the rules first!

Thanks for the feedback, though; shoegaze was actually what I was kinda going for.

Cheers!

Its been a busier week than I anticipated but I've got one almost ready. I haven't spend as much time on it as I would've liked to but it should be half-assedly finished here in a few hours.

[Chopperman404]

Not my best work. Hope y'all dig it though!
