    New Beat Tape by SwayeeBoogie & K-waz "FULL METAL BOOM BAP"

    Yo..salute to both of you on this project. My only critique is that I wish it was more subtle in a type of way where certain tracks we would have to guess whos who....but even with that at the end of the day that may not have been a factor at all. I guess Im left longing for a bit more dynamic...

    My Jamuary Attempt: What I Learned Making Beat Videos

    Been ruminating over this the last few days... My man, I gotta disagree with you on this one. Look, Im just some random dude in this community thats lurked for years. Ive heard some of the different phases here on the ILL and many a different beatmaker - also how the voting has rode that wave...

    My Jamuary Attempt: What I Learned Making Beat Videos

    Great fuckin post, and nice read. Many facts - and I think this will do many a people good. I know that was really refreshing for me to hear as Im basically at stage 3.5 of what you told of your journey. That big part of just fuckin do it. I appreciate this post.

    Good shit @Earsblower well deserved. Lots of dope joints. I missed the voting times but this shit would have been rather difficult. Shout out to all the runner ups, super solid tracks and they all fuckin knock.

    Warzone Beat Battle - January 14-18, 2025

    Nah man, yours definitely shoulda won. As far as your mix - I like shit like that. I feel like there coulda been a bit more swing at some parts with the sample but overall I still feel like it shits on mine. I also know that mine is often at a lower level than everyone elses...I just try not to...

    Warzone Beat Battle - January 14-18, 2025

    Thank you peoples... At the same time - Im right there with you @Iron Keys. I did not hold high hopes for winning this, and in all honesty kinda confused about how certain tracks advanced. @BizangoNigma I thoroughly thought you would take the W against me... @K-waz this is where I thought I...

    Warzone Beat Battle - December 3-7, 2024

    Shiiiiiit did not see this coming at all..fuckin rushed to submit this. Thank you peoples. @Iron Keys lol man, I thought for sure I would have been out first round specifically because of the mix. I guess the element of grime shopping with choice of sample kinda made it work. But that it is...

    Linda Perhacs - "If You Were My Man"

    I kinda think with this one...theres so much to choose from but at the same time, all still pretty identifiable. I really really struggled with this one until earlier today where I was like man fuck it lemme do whatever. But yeah, as smooth as this shit is, it somewhat put me off at first. I...

    Warzone Beat Battle - November 5-9, 2024

    @K-waz I definitely voted for you, thought that shit was ill and I had never heard the 50 and Kid Cudi version. Was never super into the mainstream style artists save a few, so theres a gang of songs/beats that I would have no knowledge of. Yeah, pretty close to that beat but yall....this is...

    AKG K553 MKII

    @Fade yeah man you cant really go wrong with the 7506. @Iron Keys yeah man I definitely feel you. As much as Im loving these, just a tiny amount of a boost in the low end would indeed be perfect. From what Ive noticed so far, it kinda seems like you need to crank em to get the whole picture...

    Beat This! Competition - October 30-31, 2024

    This was an interesting battle...salute to @GuttaTennekey. Wished I was a bit more prepared for this one (will probably drop in the showcase). But super shout out to @K-waz man...legit the only one that made me nasty face whilst fitting the theme. Not to take away from anybody else -...

    AKG K553 MKII

    Just picked these up yesterday and goddamn - already one of my favourite pair of cans that Ive used. You can hear everything on these fuckin things. Super flat in a sense - no unnecessary bass boost and I dont notice them being too tinny or thin in the highs. Also - the design and the materials...

    I don't understand the concept of live beat battles

    Oh what? Shit, I mean I feel like its a concept that still needs work, but, from the battles Ive seen - which isnt many, the contestants are producing a loop on the fly, but actively playing it throughout their time. You got a link to some of the joints you talkin about?
