ALL SYNTH SPBB#05

Post by Sweat One »

ALL SYNTH SPBB#05

RULES
-Beat style hip hop, underground, lo-fi, or downtempo

-Must use synths as the main instruments and sounds (definition of “synth” to include all soft-synths, virtual synths, or general synth/electronic-instrument setting on any sound module, groovebox etc.)

-Time limit 2:00

-Must use synth drums/percussion. Either make them through synthesis or use drum machine samples. Any thing you consider a drum/perc hit maybe used. Glitches, bleeps, whatever.

-Vocal samples allowed. (rhyming, singing, vocal stabs, one liner loops, scratching, accapella etc.)

-All sounds, drum and synth sampled into and sequenced on SP's. If you need to bounce out to other units that is fine, just be realistic.

-Outboard/DAW mastering allowed. (EQ, Saturation, Compression/Multi-Band, Limiting)

SPECIAL RULE

-Use a text-to-speech app to generate some humorous dialogue and add it into your beat somehow. Make a funny skit, one liner, a few random words, some oddly placed obscenities, use multiple voices to create dialogue, etc. Just make it comedic. Any text-to-speech phone/computer apps allowed.

Here's a few web page based ones, to help you out.

Hit me up if you have any questions. Make some dope shit and happy battling!

Due by Sunday, March 4th.

I know cats are probably busy with springtime rolling around. Shit, I know I am. Let's go ahead and extend this until next weekend. Let's move the deadline to Sunday, March 4th.

I was just going to bump it as well so some beats would be put up.

March 4th is a good extension for me.

Yo! I started riffing with the text to speech app and ended up with something not the least bit humorous. This is MC-307 + SP-808.

Damn... that joint is synth'ed out nicely.

Best text to speech song ever imo... El-P’s Stepfather Factory.

That's sick! Dope ass drums. It's all good, it doesn't have to be humorous. I just wanted people to use speech synthesis in a all synth battle.

That track is awesome and had a crazy animated video too.

Got another jam out of the mc-307 / sp-808 combo. I think I'll use this one for the comp, but it might be a game day decision. :lol:

tried to sequence a roland D2 with the sp505 into the sp404 this is what I came up with and yes the special rule has been spudge all over the track.
That text to speech shit is awesome.

Bazz your two beats are like comparing Whoopi Goldberg to Zhang Ziyi. The latter is clearly the best choice and has my vote dependant on what The Hungryman brings to the table.
