gis_sweden - Really cool collage feeling here, the panned delay made me feel like I was being pelted with samples, structureless and indulgent in the best ways.
ATLS. - Two solid flips here. first one had me bobbin. I really favoured the second one, I like how you used the Saikouba percussion as a place for the snare. those microsamples too...
Chopperman - The longer I stay here the more familiar I become with your work. It's hard not to let your lyrics take forefront on this joint, positive addressive rhymes, the wu-tang/bird verses had me smiling like a goof. Thanks for this.
l i f - Next. Level. Definitely a headphone listen to get the full effect. Stuttery and futuristic vibes. Disorienting. felt like
this the entire time.
FreshSerfPro - Short and sweet. Straight forward purposeful flip. Enjoyed the flip switch when the verses dropped. Very cool class/school retrospective lyrics, felt genuine and raw.
ℳusicα - Well this is just a bouillabaisse isnt it? I love the beat that kicks in at 1:30, ish is B00MING. This is just a great variety of flips though. I'm partial to the last one, that endless kick..
rak - DUUUUUUUBBY vibes. That bass is relentless.. LOVE the flam snare sample on the latter half of the beat, fat. This track is incredibly vibing.
9 Beat Combo - ATMOSPHERE. I enjoyed the repetitive nature of this track a lot, it was pulled off really well and dragged me along for the ride. There were a lot of subtle variations you pulled as well to keep me engaged. I got some sweet surrealist RPG game vibes from this joint.
asha c - This one has a VERY special place in my heart. I got huge stoner rock vibes from this track, like if colour haze or bakerton group decided to make an SP album. Psychedelic. FEEL it. You're on my watchlist.
yon. - Love the ringy lofi.. sharp and metallic, but that bass is so subby it softens everything. Joint's like a crispy doughnut. "Where is the ginseng hidden?"
Fuck I'm hungry now.
Doogs - Upbeat straighforward flip on the first joint, felt very jamsessiony. Loved the transition that lead into the second joint, very wonky feeling and had me bobbing. Very impressed from that second half. Don't need those training wheels any more
Lo Fist - Kicked off really well, impressed with the amount of swelling you got out of that track (was this all on the sx?). Solid chops, once again like a lot of people, the recording really shines on the second half, the flip felt incredibly familiar. Really competent work.
Self Taught Astronaut - Hey! Very straightforward flip, sprinkled with flavor samples and goodies. This is the kind of joint you listen to walking down the street on a sunny day making friendly gestures to people. Hey!
So much variety and solid beats on this battle. It was really cool to listen to all of it one after the other. It was like a compilation.
This is a hard choice, but I have to hand it to
asha c for kicking me right in the stoner rocks.
