    James Vincent - "Waiting for the Rain"

    @2GooD Productions Yo, another solid flip mang. Thoroughly enjoyed the added instrumentation. Nice way to flip it @Dusty B Yoooo, definitely was not expecting that at all - love it mang. A mix of grime and some slim shady shit. Loving the percussion in this, and everything is sitting nicely...

    Barbara Jean English - "You're Gonna Need Somebody to Love You"

    @Dusty B Yeah man, with certain things I try to minimize the amount of plug-ins for the sake of not putting too much icing on the cake. For me, the end goal is to have a mix that sounds like its mastered already using minimal techniques. Most drum packs/instruments are already eq'd and need...

    Barbara Jean English - "You're Gonna Need Somebody to Love You"

    @Dusty B Well, in this instance just on the individual channel. I try to keep the master as clear as possible. Only thing I really like to put on the master is a parametric eq to chop off either end of the frequency spectrum, and in some cases a limiter. Other than that for some quick glue I'll...

    Barbara Jean English - "You're Gonna Need Somebody to Love You"

    Thanks man. And honestly, all I did was do a little EQ and then use a limiter to help boost levels. One of my things is to ignore the loudness war - everything is always pushed to the max but I find it unnecessary sometimes. Depending on vibe of the track, you my not want to participate in the...

    Barbara Jean English - "You're Gonna Need Somebody to Love You"

    @SwayeeBoogie I dig the direction of it, overall its pretty cool man. Just kinda agree with @2GooD Productions as far as the smoothness of chopping and placement. @2GooD Productions Both of these are super solid man, heat as always. I think I may like 'Lord Knows' a bit more, but both are two...

    Thanks man, appreciate that. lol, that beat is actually almost 100% sample from Interstellar, and I typically go for more of the soulful stuff. But I wanted to be one some Vinnie Paz shit lmao.

    Battle That! Competition - September 13-16, 2023

    @Fade Just to clarify, we submit one beat to see if we are chosen, and then upload the other 3 beats after we are chosen, correct? Apologies, in all the years I've been lurking here Im entering for the first time lol.

    Sampling is fucking hard

    Sometimes when I've run into that problem, it was because my chops were kinda off - like, in a way that was of a different timing even though it still technically fits. What can give you more freedom to achieve what youre hearing in your head, imo, is chopping smaller. Sometimes it lets you hear...

    Sampling is fucking hard

    Well, my man, you gotta figure out what method suits you best. Like how you are gonna go about it in the first place. As others have mentioned, practice is number 1. BUT, its hard to practice when you dont have a method down. Some people chop a loop and then use that audio file in their DAW on...
