"Only use the above samples"
so im thinkin no bass, but
Im new to battles.....
Ill move fwd,
no bass....
just in
case.

Your
last beat
was fire by the way
man!

[Teewok]

Thanks Sharris! No outside bass. Made this one a bit challenging with an inconsistent sample interrupted by vocals and sound effects. There are a few bassier notes towards the end.. Lets see see what ppl can come up with...

It's been quiet in here.. hopefully ppl are busy makin beats!

[Sharris]

Sounds good!
Im just finishin up my 1st beat
for the heros vs villians battle
(maybe thats why its quiet?
Like 16 people battlin) then
im workin on this one

Yo, this was fun! Sweet theme here, Teewok!

Although, if i'm brutally honest. This season has been terrible IMO. It's been really tough to follow. I've skipped most of it. And I just heard today the show runner Scott Gimble was fired/replaced. Great, MAKE WALKING DEAD GREAT AGAIN! haha I kidd. To each is own

Anyway, I took samples from the last "intense" episode(s) of TWD that had me on the edge. I believe its from the episode leading to and thee episode of Glenn's and Abraham's death. With a clip of KRS ONE from a LORD FINESSE track. Had a few beers and then tried to add DJ scratches using high hats and the DJFX LOOPER. haha

p.s. Simon is a madman. A pretty well played character on the show.

edit: used the sprovided sounds and my own voice bounced between 404sx and st224. happened to learn at different hospitals the last couple months so the sample gave me a comfortable theme to start off with. had fun. cheers

[LoopmantrA]

All of these are awesome, shit, now I feel bad for spending only 20 minutes making my track lol

Oh well. But it was fun nevertheless.

[Sharris]

20 minutes???
I need to up my sp skills
Your beat blew mine away &
I spent like 3 fucking hours on mine.
I voted for your beat, I liked it a lot.
I normally don't like a lot of djfxlooper,
but I really like how you handle yours.
It didn't sound excessive to me, I liked the vibe.

These battles are teaching me a lot.....
Helping me see my bad habits & the things I need to improve.....
Also limiting myself. I make beats on my sp all the time,
But I also bounce around & depend on a lot of gear........
I normally don't use ONLY my sx when making a beat,
so I'm lovin these battles....
I'm forming a deeper bond with my sp
