SHUT.


DOWN.

[formal]

Damn, I gotta get down on this. Been a bit since I battled. Good thing I checked the arena. How much time is left?

[ghost bazz]

I think Wed (tomorrow) will be the official 2 week measure that was originally mentioned. How long do you need? I don't see a problem with waiting another day or so.

[formal]

Here, just threw this together. Don't got much time to make beats in the next few days so it is what it is....

Gameboy Color/Gameboy Camera, Roland MC307, Roland SP404, Akai MPC 1000

Vinyl: Flash Gordon, Alan Parsons Project: iRobot, Jean Michael Jarre: Les Chants Magnetiques

That was quick... dope beat too. I like the gameboy sounds. It all gels really well. Is the bass line from the 307?

wasnt gonna make a beat then i changed my mind last minute came frome this album i found for a dollar. Technics SL-d303 sp 404 recorded and converted to mp3 on ACID

[a.D.]

Shit,lol-I had such bigger plans for this beat, just ran out of energy & time...was gonna have a change up & a bridge, some mutes & some drum varriation,& I was gonna add strings to the hook from another record-BUT looks like I'll have to maybe do all that for a beat tape,'cause I might wanna use this.possibly.

99.9% vinyl-played the bass from the 202. Got my kicks,hats,crash, and tamborines from 70's soul and jazz records,the snares from a mid-80's raggae record. Processed & sequenced the drums in the sampletrak,then put them back into the 404. Used 2 records for the musical samples-a mid- 80's synth record,and some mid-70's jazz/soul fusion.

All sp,st, & dr. 202,Everything was sequenced in the 404..then recorded into the br-900(not tracked out).

Respect to everyone involved,everything I've heard so far has been crazy,this'll definitely be interesting. Btw-if nothing else,please let me know how the bass levels sound on this-I'm working in a different room then I have been for a while,and the sound's all over the place,I'd appreciate it.Peace

Story of my life man - I see songs unfolding with layers and parts and variations but time constraints and work/life always come in the way , and i end up doing a "for now" mix usually.


Nice beat! I gotta update my vinyl collection, you guys obviously have some deep and dope sources.
