The next competition will be from July 10-11th! See the information below.

Signups

The signups will be on July 10th at 12pm ET/EST, 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 July 11th, where the results will be posted the same day.

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

Theme: Drum Loop Sample
Time Limit: 2 minutes
*Vocal Track Allowed?: NO
**Vocal Snippets Allowed?: YES


  • You must make a beat with THIS DRUM LOOP.
  • The BPM is 88.
  • The stems are provided OR you can use the loop.
  • You can alter the sound of the loop and stems, but we must still be able to tell it came from the original.

===========
* VOCAL TRACK ALLOWED? This means you can have a full vocal track with your beat (acapella, for example).
** VOCAL SNIPPETS ALLOWED? This means you can have vocal snippets in your beat (very short vocal parts, for example). This is where you can also have an intro with talking (like from a movie).
===========

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.

Voting Criteria

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!

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 favoritism 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.

...maybe add the rule in that you must use each of the stems (if that's your intent), before we get people using just one hi hat one shot.

Maybe that's covered enough in "we need to tell it's the came from the original."

Yeah that's why I put that because the last thing we need is someone saying they used the hat at 1:42 in the background behind some random sound.
 
Booo don't tell them the BPM let them figure it out
I was genuinely considering downloading the loop and changing the tempo to whatever the fuck I want until I noticed bpm was mentioned. I haven't even heard the sample yet but ig now that'd be illegal.

The bpm and drum loop worked well for mine, Im happy with how it turned out :D This the first time where I was really messing with effects too
