Beat Fight #400

Let’s gooooo!!!

Love this beat @M.I.ndless

I’m hammered as fuck at the pub, but will circle back and drop proper commentary soon. Or not. Depends on how drunken this weekend gets lol

Also, Quantum Leap is a dope ass show. I myself preferred Sliders, but I rate the track title.

geez @BiggChev what a bassline. nice insert of the drums sample at 2:58. Everything pro here. It has a soundtrackish feel a like very much, something luxury, like playboy in Montercarlo.

@M.I.ndless man, no doubt, my fav of yours this one. The hi-hat in sixteenths fits perfectly, the effected drums or whatever it is at 1:24, brilliant choice, horns on point, pads, the deep bass, everything... in short, the beat would already be a gem, and then the vocal sample makes everything shine. If I didn't like the sound in your last beat (you said it was an old work), I would say it's no longer a problem at all for you.

@BiggChev , fucking love this shit. Everything right where it needs to be. As always, without a doubt, worthy of a win on this one. You really know how to structure a beat that keeps it interesting throughout, love the change-ups. The organ and piano and horns all have their time to shine. Great job!

Thanks @attila, I should have put this one in round one for Battle That, would still be in the comp...maybe...I went up against a beast in the first round. I really appreciate the feedback!

@BiggChev - Listening again after some Saturday morning indica and loving that single mellow piano stab that hits throughout then you put that echo on...dope.

@M.I.ndless

Sorry for the delay on the feedback. Worked all day Saturday then headed up to a friend's to watch the fight. Ended up having a lazy day yesterday just vegging on the couch watching Community.

This is a very polished piece of music. Great sample choice and treatment. Rhodes and guitar will always catch my attention. Bringing in the horns behind the vocals was a clever way to sneak them in and build depth without an abrupt change. What I didn’t catch it at first, but certainly felt, was that synth/sub bass. I would've gone for a traditional upright or electric bass - but the synth bass fit this really well and filled the low end out perfectly. Even the glitchy synth bit fits well and a cool creative decision. I love how well this beat flows and seamlessly moves from one theme to the next. Very dope!

@BiggChev this had my head bumping from the beginning, love the vibe you put in there, very laidback style on this one!

@M.I.ndless
One of the more better works i heard from you man, love those vocals that's cutting in between

And i thought that last one would be hard to decide....

Congrats @BiggChev on the win! In the lab now working on round two.

Thanks!

You had a great beat too.
