My boy Thaddeus Gincig and I did a split beat tape. Thad's up first, I bat cleanup.

Teaser beat off a split beat tape I'm doing with a homie. Peep peeps!

That beat is great, Od. Good shit.

Good game, gentlemen.

Yerp, theme possibilities really are endless. It's dope to see so much interest. Next battle should be real good.

It's also kinda rough making a beat from such a busy sample. But hey, if seven motherfuckers make a beat from the same source, it's gonna get boring. Just roll with it.

I voted #5. Super creative with what was given. I also liked #7 a lot.

Oh yeah, thanks for recommending me for mod to whomever did that. Holler at your boy. We takin' over.

i didn't listen to all of the album, and i didn't listen to it chronologically, but i noticed a few things -this was mixed down and mastered better than Goblin (no Syd involved??) but still Tyler has some rough spots on the way the beats sound -not even an Earl or Mike G appearance can save this -l...

He re-recorded and remixed the entire track. Huh.

Remixed a track I haven't even dropped yet. Just a chop+raps. Enjoy?

Man I've been posting here so long I think I can ID everybody's beat off general style. Pretty cool.

Everybody was loving that weird pitched cymbal crash, huh? Off top, #2, #6 and #7 are my favorites. Might have to marinate on this one for a minute.

GodsDad wrote:#2,#3,#5, and #9 sound the best to me but why is there no voting option for 8,9?

A very good question indeed. I call shenanigans.

Sent off. Woop woop.

This album is pretty garbage as far as sampling. Made three beats and I don't like any of 'em. THE SHOW MUST GO ON THOUGH.

I'll have mine in by tonight.

Eich, it'd be rad to see you level out your samples and drums a bit more. I do the same thing sometimes, but I find in a lot of your beats that the drums take full and center stage and drown out the samples. Notch those EQs and make shit sit in the mix, bruh! Do you have any good guides/advice for ...

Good call.

Soundcloud works on minutes of audio uploaded not size of the files, so it doesn't really matter how big the files are if I remember correctly. MP3 would take a shorter time to upload though, I imagine that's what you're getting at.

Dope shit. The kid puts words together very very well.

Sounds like the best thing would be to send a .wav to one person and they upload all of them to one soundcloud account. Too much work?

Word. Can we standardize a delivery method, either picking Soundcloud or Divshare over one another? Just to make sure the people that signed up can actually compete and whatnot.

Damn, 5 and 6 are too slick.

Also decided to not vote for myself.

Welcome to hip hop shows in 2013.

These are some pretty amazing records for samples. I'm taking this in an interesting direction that I hope won't turn most folks off.

Just remember who won last time we had an Italian horror soundtrack battle.
