Beat Battle - I give you the sample, you make the beat

hot sample. i'm working on something atm. should we just post it when we're done or should we wait for the deadline?

Just post when you're done!

well i put something together. kept it pretty simple.

tell me what you think: http://www.soundclick.com/bands/page_so ... ID=6103011

if the deadline is still jan 13th, i'm in... but just let me know wassup... i'm not gonna have time really until after new years, but that's a nice track to sample so i'd like to participate...

oh... and does the winner get to choose the sample for the next round? is that how it works? just curious...

I thought of that idea too, but MoonBased said that he would provide the next sample, so.... If he wants to provide it, he van otherwise the winner does.

well u can count me out the battle.... my laptop got fried... and im on my freinds pc right now....

but ima try to fix my PC asap i might even make it on time to be in the battle...

but if needed ill deff throw out a sample for people to mess with...

or like you guys said the winner can provid.

The winner provides then!

cool. deadline is still the 13th, right?

Yeah sure.

heres mine. id like to make a whole song, but i havent got to learn song mode, and my trip was postponed so i wont be near an mpc till after the deadline.

so its a 2 bar loop. my 2nd beat ive made so far, so be gentle

i will enter every single one of these, its a great way to learn, cause i'll get to see how everyone else flips it.

bobsmitt: yours was pretty dope. you made great use of the flute sample... the way you layered it over the piano was well done... also the way you chopped it later on was cool. the drums were nice & gritty and fit well with the rest of the track. the only thing i'm not too sure about is the hihat... it sounded outta place at times. i still liked it though.

foenetik: for a 2nd beat that's pretty hot. you should have added just a little bit more than just 2 bars though... some copying and pasting and making slight variations can go a long way... still some good shit and it shows potential.

thanks! im going to try and make more of it if i have time before i go.

I'll drop mine in a couple days---I got it sequenced in mpc--just need to track it out to the eight track--

i threw a lil something together today...i decided i wanted to use strictly samples from the song posted and no external sources... i also tried not to use any loops that had already been used in this thread so far either. this was all done 100% within and directly recorded from the mpc1000.

here's what i came up with... it still needs a bassline, which i may add if i have some time later on... and the drums could have sounded better if i'd used something from my breaks collection, but these were what i could chop from the paul horn track... in any case, it was fun to lay down... lemme know what you all think:
