One add to a few of you ---
Distort your bass!!!
There's a few people whose records sounded without bass until I listened back on something with low lows - at which point there was a lottt of sub, but inaudible on a lot of playback systems.
Really gorgeous bass, don't let it go missing!
Fascinating --- the beat I sonically liked most you thought was mine, and you know/like my sonic signature.
I also often a fan of Bandia's stuff.
You / Arvin / Bandia all commonly styles I dig.
Congrats Ears, my g!
@Earsblower
Liked the ninja vibes
my top two were @Bandia Gotach and @Armani - Bandia had the production 'sound' and feel I liked, but Arvin had that well composed Storchy shi. Voted for Arvin, but could have gone either way. Think I had brother Earsblower as my third...
it's between two or three beats for me.
Having a difficult time between two of them, have placed my vote.
If one had the same production value as the other, it'd win pretty easy. But the other. I dunno.
Think i'll stick. The production is good 'enough', just less to my taste. But I fuck with it
MAKE IT MAKE SENSE.
My only thought at that point is it possibly could be down to the composition and arrangement itself - obviously our comps and arrange would have improved with experience too, and people often overlook how the arrangement impacts the final sound.
I'm tempted to re-try and...
I tried that once...
I remade an old banger with new better sounds, better mix plugins, better experience and skills.
It sounded near enough identical.
The anticlimax was immense.
I thought they all sounded good... I'm listening out of phone speakers but still, sounded like they had something. (I also was only just skipping in to get a quick quick glimpse of process and the beat itself)
The thing I was least a fan of was Timb saying type beats are the future and wanting...
I think I either voted for @Delta Skeltah or @DJ Excellence -- both similar vibe I can remember both beats but can't remember which I chose.
Winning beat was one of the ones I quickly skipped past as wasn't Jazzy enough for me
As always if anyone wants any individual feedback @ me
A lot of...
Not checked who's who yet, but wanted to do something different and give a kind of 'review' of the entries as a whole.
To try avoid calling out any individuals or whatnot.
When it comes to 'other music' themes, there seems to be 2 common mistakes, or difficulties that present:
I'll use in...
It's because people don't understand music.
Any kid can ask mom for a 100$ mic and interface bundle and stuff their presets in their cracked fruity loops copying some YouTube vid. Then just say random words. Then other kids listen and do the same.
There weird hepatitis fortnite 'rappers'
Best line is that, if you open old hip hop it's gonna be something different... (I.e LL, vs Luda, Vs Nas, vs Fab) but today everything is the same beat... People making love song on the same trap beat and same kill ya mom trap beat.
Great point...
I can't even really hear it, so all good to me. Great work
Wow, the kick stacking - do you chop em all up to match the parts you want or? I never get into that. Spend hour crafting perfect kick, then play it back don't like it
Fairplay.
Feel you. Fair
Always and anytime, bro. Just a DM or...
I think first time round there was something i didn't like, i think R2/R3 I was like 'what didn't i like?'.
I think maybe there was a thin freq somewhere (maybe not). Love the kick, love the compositional work (was any of this 'stolen' type ish - or all just your own doing).
It's a bit mono...
It could sound quiet because you're compressing it - a very real possibility depending on how you're compressing it
OMG - so, I came to my computer to listen to music whilst responding. Anyway, just finished typing the above and was like 'ou what's this playing, gonna go add it to my saved on...
