SoundLab Beat Battle: The Inugami Family (DUE 3/13)

[CHANCE RANDOM]

GET DOWN WITH THE GET DOWN

Welcome to yet another wonderful Philafamalam beat battle. Eight producers enter. One producer leaves with the knowledge they make hotter beats than seven random motherfuckers on the internets.

The Source: The Inugami Family OST https://www.dropbox.com/s/k2mmrnyd6hwyv ... y.zip?dl=0

The Rules:

- Contestants will have ten days to make a beat.
- All sounds (except for drums) must be sourced from the provided record. I'm willing to let accompanying synth sounds/lines pass but they better not be the focus of the beat, you cheater. Make your own synths by looping short samples/sounds from the record.
- Contestants will send an ATTACHED .MP3 of the beat with an IDENTIFIABLE TITLE to me at chancematic[at]gmail[dot]com.
- I will upload them to the Sound Lab's Soundcloud account as a playlist.
- The day after the deadline, voting begins and will take place for four days.
- You cannot vote for yourself, dummy.
- Once the voting time ends, another beatmaking time starts.
- Rinse and repeat for three rounds until a winner is declared.

QUESTION FOR Y'ALL: Should we do bracketed face-off rounds or our old style of vote tallying?

[Captin Planit]

Only reason I vote for tallies is because (1) it keeps everybody involved until the end, even if you don't have a shot, and (2) it gives everyone the opportunity to weigh in on the whole collection.

Also, can we list the deadline as a date instead of 10 days from when you posted this? I'm bad at calendar math.

[CHANCE RANDOM]

Tallies it is.

Was waiting for a bit more engagement on this thread before we mark a hard date. Errybody ready?

[the dead poet]

i'm ready bros. Gonna probably start listening/choppin shit up tonight.

[Ned Ryerson]

let's do this

[Jesse-velazquez]

I'm ready to go in.

[CHANCE RANDOM]

Cool. Ten days from today. Beats due at 11:59 PM PST Friday, March 13th.

FRIDAY THE 13th. SPOOKY.

[CHANCE RANDOM]

I'ma tell y'all right now: WORK HARD. I'm already done with all my rounds and I GOT HEAT.

[Jesse-velazquez]

Working on Round 2 now. And Still tweaking 1 also. Is it 10 days for each round? or no?

[CHANCE RANDOM]

We'll see how we're feeling after round one, we might be able to shorten the time period if people are on their toes. More often than not people get busy/forget about the battles so we'll see.

[Ned Ryerson]

started working on something the other day, hopefully will finish this weekend

we using the same album for all 3 rounds?

[Captin Planit]

Probably won't submit something until 11:50 PM Friday night. But I'll be there.

And I'd bet in Sound Lab fashion, we'll have a different album for each round.

[CHANCE RANDOM]

Eh, I think the album is packed with enough shit we could do three rounds but we can switch it up too. Whatever's clever.

[Jesse-velazquez]

I don't mind using the same album (Started 2nd song recently). But I wouldn't mind messing with a different album too.

[CHANCE RANDOM]

Reminder: shit's due on Friday. I've received exactly one (1) beat so far.

If the Soundlab is anything, it's consistent.
