Dope, you used that travellin sample well.
I'll try to put up my beat soon, but I used "Boom" acapella and the quality is garbage

i got mine up. i made one beat, then two like side beats. it's not meant to be a change up or anything, but just rather me messing around with the samples.

thats quite a pallete your working with sheik.

i like how the drums come in after the intro.
They drop nicely again after the chorus

Henessee Williams · Post by **Henessee Williams** » Wed Mar 09, 2005 2:37 pm

Fiend,

you sequenced that beat well at times (intro/end)

i like the drums and bass by themselves, the way you took it out.

BIzzle's bass line was pretty hot. i got to listen to it again, I already forgot it.

i like cadence weapon's the most so far. i think he and i went for similar vibes with the samples. of course his sound way more bugged out. mine's more straightforward.

2root2s is dope too. it's on an El-P cannibal ox vibe. i'm feeling that.

no other way to keep it on an even playing field. some people have brought pre-made beats to previous battles.

that's just not cricket.

word, contests like these show how good of a producer you are....not how dope your keyboard is or how deep your crates are.

Henessee Williams · Post by **Henessee Williams** » Thu Mar 10, 2005 3:10 pm

2root2 this is real tight.

sounds like Cinematic Orchestra.

big ups.

The quality of the acapella is garbage

so try to focus on the beat.

Very nice. The acapella is mixed to high I think. Turn it down a little. Dope beat.

Henessee Williams · Post by **Henessee Williams** » Fri Mar 11, 2005 3:56 pm

good looks dawg.
much appreciated.

Nacho Vidal · Post by **Nacho Vidal** » Fri Mar 11, 2005 6:34 pm

Okay, Henessee takes this hands down. Tayo is second. maybe Iron Sheik a distant third.

I'm sorry, but I lurked the sample-pack (i'll re-up if anyone needs it), so I know what you guys had to work with, and Henessee absolutely killed it. Tayo was dope too, but came with a more obvious groove, in my opinion.

Props to everyone who participated. Those samples weren't easy to fuck with.
