The next competition will be from February 24-25th! See the information below.

Signups

The signups will be on February 24th at 12pm ET (New York time), and end around 8pm ET, or until we have enough contestants (whichever comes first - depending on the theme). Voting will be for one day, on February 25th, where the results will be posted the same day.

Check out the Beat This! ranks: https://www.illmuzik.com/beat-battles/?cat=bthis

*Note: check out https://time.is/ to find out the correct time difference for your timezone.

The Signup page is here (it will open up on the signup day)

Theme: NONE
Time Limit: 2 minutes
Vocal Track Allowed?: NO


===========
*NOTE: From now on there's a criteria called "vocal track allowed?". It will be yes or no. If it's "yes", this means you can have a full vocal track with your beat (acapella, for example). You can still have occasional vocal snippets (but don't rely on them too much).
===========

You can use whatever sounds you want, samples, synths, just remember to read the rules for the rest of the restrictions. What the judges will be looking for is originality, creativity, mixing skills and overall dopeness!

Voting

If you are competing, you will be able to vote but not for yourself. DO NOT TRY TO CHEAT! I will be watching for cheaters. This means you cannot sign up under different names or get your friends and family to sign up either. If you are caught cheating you could be banned.

Beats

All the beats will now be displayed in a random order and without any names. All you will see is: Beat #001, Beat #002, etc. This is so that there is no favouritism when voting.

Rules

If you're not sure about the rules, read this thread.

If you have any comments, suggestions, or questions about the competition, please post them in here.

This entry will be my first Maschine mikro mk3 production.
The thought of not having to use my laptop keys in the piano roll anymore is almost making me cry sweet golden tears of joy.
Nice! It really makes a difference when using something hands-on and with your ears.
I can totally relate @Vossi Beats , for years I was banging on qwerty keys haha. Getting an mpc standalone so I'm getting away from the pc for good. My daw has been trusty but I'm ready to move on. Congrats brother!
Which standalone do you have now?

DAWs are great with a controller but I think it's because I'm on the computer so much to begin with that I need something away from the PC to make beats. It makes a big difference for me.

That’s great man I am excited for you. I have been using and getting better with the MK3 once I made the switch from the MPC I don’t see my self using anything else. I have been using the MK3 with ableton trying to get my work flow down.
