IMO this is the illest battle so far- every beat is sick.

mostblunted- real sick flip. you made the most out of this ill sample I like the way the drums and sample sound together and I like the layer of grime too.

drewzle- good isolation of sounds. you really flip it from the original - that drum solo shit is crazy around 1:20. really sick beat.

Doc- nice calm beat- def has an effect on the mental, it made me more chill. your signiture style on the timing sounded sick on this flip.

jbl- nice track. It could have been flipped more but it was a nice arrangement- you def took advantage of an ill sample.



sp404beatz- cool track man. I remember you said you were a noob, I see your making progress on the SP. My only advice --simple loops aint always bad, but it dont look good in time of battle :wink: . glad you joined the fight.

olerud- sick beat man. i like use of flutter fx (i think i hear). it has sick unquantized sound too.

IIIII- very proffesional sounding. very calm vibe too. Doesnt sound like the original at all. real sick and original track.


All these beats got there own ill steez, def a tuff decision but I guesse I'll go with mostblunted.

mostblunted- awesome beat, great use of the vocals! you seem very comfortable sampling this style of music... i can hear your influences 8)

drewzle- like how you isolated those guitar riffs, very clean sounding. it's also VERY catchy, its running through my head again and again

juxt- great atmosphere, sounds like a beat for a retrospective 'all the bad things i've done' type rap

DR.Sample303- very smooth with the guitar samples, sounds like something i almost made! love how you layered the samples but they don't sound like they are out of place at all

jbl- cool beat but when it comes to the battle i want MORE, transitions between samples were kinda choppy too

sp404beatz- sounds good, a little bit more variation with the drums could lead to something even better

olerud- my fav beat, very smooth and clean, simple but things are switched up a bit to keep me interested

IIIII- this mother fucker doesn't know what he is doing

QuoteunQuote- sorry but your beat wont play! everyone else's is working fine... soooo i'll check it out later

:shock:
Again thank you guys... great beats in this battle, but most blunted catched me most. Drums sounded really good plus nice chops on that sample. What else could I say ... I just love it ... :oops:

(btw. where is the "forum-compilation" ?)

hey y'all. well fought.

can't get quoteunquote track to play.

i'm going with IIIII - more to my tastes, a little more washy and abstract.

howevs, i liked some of the others in there, esp, most blunted's use of the vox, and drewzle's use of the guitar parts.

still, IIIII for the win.
