    @DEEZ BEATZ That's some fancy stuff right there, almost voted for this one because I love that melody. The vocal (?) chops are an excellent touch, though some are a tad bit off pitch (this adds to the charm in my opinion). It's great to hear you excel in so many styles. My blend/beat tape is...

    @DEEZ BEATZ "Twisted" is a pretty fly beat with lots of space for vocals, so spitting to it is a no brainer. I'm a bit iffy about the slap/snare sample, but the Rhodes line is nice and it all just ties well, both sound-wise and composition-wise. @Joey Phillips Not a big fan of the melody (heard...

    That's what the template says as the default rules. For this one, your beat has to be up to a minute long.

    Help Me ... I Need songs like this ...

    "Speakin' So Freely" and "Get Away" both have beats that convey suspense with long notes played by some kind of pads, so I guess you're aiming for that.

    Fantastic Youtube page for sampling (MrHITCHER65)

    That's a blessing, though it would take hours to find a drum track suitable for hip hop. Here's a half decent one from a track everyone knows

    @Matt-D I don't know what is it with your beat making procedure, but a lot of the samples in your beats in general have a weirdly oscillating volume and a bit of distortion, as if they've been time stretched using a really bad interpolation algorithm. The intro and main parts don't mesh well at...

    Welcome to the forums, nice tape you have there.

    @Johni Cleveland That's a fire sample choice! At first I though the drums were a bit weak, but they actually go well with the rest. I also like how the camera shakes - do you really pound the pads that hard? @DEEZ BEATZ I've heard this chord progression (iv V i) a lot in trap, but didn't mind...

    @AtomicBeats Aye, I'm also from over there! That's a very well made beat you've got there, I love how much space it leaves for vocals to "breathe". Sounds ready for a light, poppy guy to spit to. @unorthodoxbeatz At first it had me scratching my head, but then I remembered DJ Mustard is from...

    Have you ever had a second thought on that nickname?

    Beat Breakdown (reposted in the correct thread)

    There's like four samples in there. Also, the way he flipped the beginning of "Eazy Duz It" is brilliant. https://www.whosampled.com/Logic/Under-Pressure/samples/

    Digging Wudge-U-Cop-While-Digging-Today?

    @The Knoxvillan Doesn't seem to be anything special really - some radio station slapped a sticker on it and Discogs listings suggest that the promo copy isn't more valuable than any of the retail copies.

    80 bpm acapellas

    I've got a ton of a cappella tracks, some of which have been tagged with very precise tempo values, PM me if you're interested. Exactly 90 BPM can be achieved easily by adjusting the speed accordingly.

    @Rodas It's always nice to hear a full rap track built upon a beat. The lo-fi vibe came out very nicely and not contrived like some such tracks tend to do on SoundCloud - well done flip. The only suggestion I'd make is to put a bit of reverb on the snare, but the beat is already fine...

    @Chad I think you should put less emphasis on the bassline and make the main synths louder. The drums fit well. Maybe ease off the detuning on that one instrument. @Matt-D Don't really care about the vocals (I'm just a bit surprised you got a hold of a Chris Brown a cappella), but this beat...

    Glad that many of you also liked that early 2000s Alc-ish beat... Pretty much any Mobb Deep weed carrier would sound excellent over it.

    I'm hearing Arsen Dedić (R.I.P.) in one of these beats... crazy how far some of you will go when digging. Great to see more spots for the battle, there's some real heat in here.

    Weekly Workshop #1

    @Klypse Wix is great if you want more than just beats on your website (there's a risk of clutter if you end up doing that). Otherwise, go with MyFlash- I mean Airbit. You can even do both, as the player can be embedded easily.
