allot of tracks this week. good sample. alright give these contestants a listen and let us know what you think..

Voted for Krakenjunge by mistake.... great beat though!

I-King was supposed to get my vote this week...!

Saadyah.... so much energy...maybe a bit too much, but behind all that sound was a really good beat!

Sickthe D-god: solid intro and 1st verse... didnt feel the vocals though.

Voted for Mattman. No specific reason, just the beat I liked best.

Good week, quite a few people used the same sample chop as me too



MA Beats Nice chops, had me head nodding to it - its often hard to ‘judge’ a beat when theres an acapella on it though.

No-FVCE Nice knockin non-quant drums - liked the additional vocals you added in

SICK - Full sounding, liked the plucking you chopped up and the phased/flanged effect.

Krakenjunge - Choppy nice, definitely another head nodder!

Rockin’Doublz - I think the beat is great, but without the acapella - its a little too distorted for me

Keith’s Lard - Nice drums and overall arrangement

Martian Heights - Percussion elements in there are fresh, not the usual kick snare hat routine

JnB Beats Nice use of vocals, snare and hats might hit a little hard in the mix?

Saadyah Tzvi Huge sounds! loved this one!

ProtoOne’s beat isn’t available for me

Don Blake A little short / loopy for me but a good starting point

Emwu23 Such a different flow than all the others, refreshing. Sounds almost like a battle record I could imagine Qbert cutting over. Additional elements are fantastic and takes this one to winning status for me.

Reefer I wondered if someone would use this acc! - Sample seems a little quiet in the mix?

Mattman121775 Real nice overall sound, executed well with good “special rule’ elements

Ivoryviking Chops great, arranged well, drums hard! Close between this one and emwus as winner

I don't know where it went wrong. But perhaps, when I had a re-entry of the beat with vocal.

yes sir, you must have done the repost after i posted this thread.
i can't change it or it will erase all votes. sorry brotha.

and it looks like don blake pulled his track.

every body will need to use your post here to hear your track now.

what up yall

man i voted Krakenjunge

with mattman a close second

kraks beat was plain dope

matts drums almost did it for me tho

good work for most everyone else

peace

My vote goes to IvoryViking, dope beat!

Good job to everybody this week!

Good beats all around, the theme was evident in them but what stood out for me was ma beats, it had the club bounce vibe that makes the ladyz bootyz shake! Haha...peace out..

Loved MA Beats, very soulful. Thou it was Harem vs Haram.


My vote goes to Keith Lard,


The built up reminded me of MCLyte's: Throwin' word at you.

Hey peps.
i almost were "trapped" by saadyah tzvi again : really strong energy, but i went with mattman finally. Nice group work all!

One question on how 2 do: how you guys work with an acapella? Of curse you pitch the bpm, but do you chop for example a whole acc into pieces if it doesn´t fit here or there? You can take mine as example- the start sucks and the end fits...

Nice beats all. Found it a bit hard to choose just one, ha. I ended up voting for Mattman with Saadyah and ma joint second, dope work.

Lots of very good beats this week.
I really had problem with who I will vote for.

My favourites:
MA Beats
5XVT
mattman121775
Ivoryviking
Reefer Madness - this is really good beat and as 5X I think the samples sounds too quiet in the mix

My vote goes to saadyah tzvi ,that is what I like

Mattman did it for me this week.

I really dug listening to the tracks this week. Not much to disslike.

.

I don't chop unless I'm only using pieces. I really listen to the original and how the words landed on the snares. Then slide that thing around and listen a hundred times.

But I just started trying it out myself. Kzee and saad would have better tips.

Went with Ivory viking. So much good in this battle. Best one I've seen on this board.
I'll try to do more analysis later.
