Fatality FIGHT! Battle #226
Beat #1 - Wish the piano was louder. Great vocal sample. Love the drums. Beat #2 - Cool Heatmakerz vibe. Hats are cool. Was expecting the drums to drop sooner, but then I realized the kick is actually mixed in very low.- Dusty B

How often do you make beats and how long does it take you?
Excellent post, thank you. Great quotes! -
How often do you make beats and how long does it take you?
That's the one I have actually. When I ordered, the white one was actually $20 cheaper from a 3rd party, so for $70 I really can't complain since it has everything I need. I may have to also get a standalone keyboard to practice with though too. -
How often do you make beats and how long does it take you?
Akai MPK Mini. It's cool so far. Keys feel kinda cheap and they are smaller than I realized. But a few pads, keys and knobs is all I use right now. -
How often do you make beats and how long does it take you?
That makes sense. I'm still in the honeymoon phase of relearning and playing with my new controller and headphones. -
How often do you make beats and how long does it take you?
I'm getting back into it after a 10 year hiatus. Over the past couple weeks, I've been spending a few hours in my office after the kids are sleeping, and then wrapping up mixing and fine-tuning the next day in between the work day. Right now I'm at like ~0.5-1 beat/day and probably ~6 hours... -
Mini controller
I just bought the Akai MPK mini. Keys are a bit small for my liking, but overall it seems pretty good. I ordered from Amazon for $70, the white model was $20 cheaper than the red and black models for whatever reason. -
Fuck AI
I have a different opinion on this. I've been using ChatGPT at work since its release, and I have the premium version to access the GPT-4 model. In my experience, while AI excels at generating run of the mill content, it falls short in producing truly innovative ideas, which still requires human...- Dusty B

What Do You Want From Me - Instrumental w/hook
p.s. any tips on your mastering approach? I like how loud it is (yet still clean). Gotta play the loudness war to stay competitive :p -
What Do You Want From Me - Instrumental w/hook
Solid. It immediately reminded me of a Immortal Technique vibe, but modernized. Can definitely see a lyricist ripping this up. I like the reverb or whatever effect was put on the bassline around 1:50. Great beat. -
I flipped Bruce Springsteen's "I'm on Fire"
Mostly wanted to experiment. Let me know what you think! p.s. there's a free/legal FLAC download on archive.org in case anyone else wants to sample it. -
'Human Trafficking' - InsideOutBeats
My favorite part is that guitar/synth that comes in around 0:45. I think there could be opportunities to make that feel more full, i.e. some more panning or layers. I wasn't too big of a fan of the bass line, I thought a lower sub-like bass vs. that "bubble" synth could bring out the lows... -
Ghetto Brawl
Cheers, man. Thanks for the feedback. It's been fun getting back into it after a decade hiatus. I'll actually have real headphones and a midi controller this week, more to come! -
Ghetto Brawl
What's up, folks. Beat #2 to share since getting back into it. Looking for any and all feedback! Was watching Monsters University with my kids and got inspired to play around with a "real" drums feel. Let me know what you think. -
The Otherside (Rapper Singer Type Beat)
Funny enough this was a T Swift inspired beat, so I also think it's probably better suited for a singer. I might have to play around with the >1:20 flip into it's own beat too since that part seems to be getting good feedback. Appreciate the feedback. Great to get some solid feedback... -
The Otherside (Rapper Singer Type Beat)
Sweet, thanks for listening. I'm working with just cheap PC speakers and headphones, but just ordered a pair of Sennheiser's :cool: @2GooD Productions appreciate the feedback on the reverb. I was playing around with new plugins and wanted to test some of the extremes, so thanks for letting me... -
The Otherside (Rapper Singer Type Beat)
What's up, folks. New guy here. Made beats for about 7-8 years straight, then life happened and didn't make anything for about 10 years, and now I'm having fun tapping into an old hobby and creative outlet. Check out my latest rapper singer type beat. Leveraged the famous chords from... -
[FREE] Playboi Carti x Pierre Bourne Type Beat - "0PIUM"
I like the abstract feel. It's chill and could definitely see a rapper/singer type on this. The hats and clap could use some reverb, or perhaps something else as they sound flat. But overall I like it. Good stuff! -
Pulp Fiction "Gourmet"
I like it, catchy sample. My only recommendation would be a more lows. In my opinion, a nice bass line would really complete it.
