    Showcase - May 17-19, 2011

    The beat is called Astral Plane, check it out: http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=527200 Dac: Not familiar with the contest or sample you were talking about, so just listened to this for what it is, and what it is is a nasty beat! Really like the sound of the bass, it sounds...

    Yeah man, not happy with what I got either but I'll put it up anyway... EDIT: Actually, forget it. Thanks for the sample Dac, but I'm not gonna subject your ears to the horrible mess I made! Hopefully I'll have better luck with the next one. Here's my feedback for the other beats: Ferret...

    The Boxettes - Free (All-female beatbox vocal group led by Bellatrix)

    There was a beatboxing conference at a venue called Contact in Manchester last year where I got to perform with Bellatrix, Kid Lucky, Hobbit & local sick beatboxers Drase and Jason Singh. Gotta say, Bellatrix had some bass to her voice that shook the building! Very dope live act, though I've not...

    Showcase - May 12-14, 2011

    Not gonna be able to upload anything this time cos I'm away from home :-( But thought I would drop by & leave some feedback. Rav3: Absolutely sick! Raw beat man, great job, only thing I could suggest is adding more varitaion - maybe a different sequence of chops leading into the hook? But...

    Hiss in my vocal recordings

    As peeps have already said, sorting it out at the recording stage is your best bet, but for existing background noise, a free, easy to use noise gate plugin I recommend is ReaGate: http://www.reaper.fm/reaplugs/ I'm sure the Waves & Izotope plugins are amazing, but the Cockos plugins above...

    Dac: Thanks for another quality sample, I've been busy as hell but got it imported into the sequencer, ready for the chop! As for your beat, bloody amazing. Polished sound and very nice chops, drums and bassline on point, nice change-up. At first I thought it seemed a little busy in parts...

    Yeah good advice, guess you gotta be really precise if you wanna start editing little sounds out, cheers. In the bass sample I used there was a kick drum clashing with my snare, so I put a little volume envelope on it & faded it in. Think I was too lazy to deal with the space drum, haha.

    April 23rd - May 7th

    Thanks for the feedback pal, by space drum do you mean the "whoo" sound? I hate that myself to be honest but had a hard time trying to filter it out! If that's the sound you mean, I'm with you 100%. Anyone else get that problem, where there's one sound in a sample you can't get rid of? That...

    Thanks to everyone who gave me feedback, really helped to break me out of a production ice age! Got some new beats cooking for the next showcase now. And yo 2good that track is class, a lot of people forgot about those fast Hip Hop tracks! (Apart from grime/double time). Another fast rap classic:

    April 23rd - May 7th

    Thanks for the feedback people. Listened to all the other flips & was very impressed. Dacalion: You actually managed to use those wobble sounds! I couldn't make those bastards fit in my beat at all! Very professional sounding beat, don't know why you're bothered about it being a "half ass...

    April 23rd - May 7th

    Yes yes, Thanks for the sample Dacalion, not made a beat for ages so this was my 1st port of call for some inspiration. Ferret: really nice mellow beat, all gels together well. Especially like how you've made the vocal part of the beat, an MC could bounce off that - like how in some tracks...

    Yeah that doesn't surprise me, they've got a worldwide following, got mates in India who are long-time fans. I was in NY last year & soon as I said where I was from had the same reaction, "ah, Man U, Bobby Charlton" haha. But City, Manchester's other big team, are actually richer - just not as...
