Working out, listening to a DOOM interview. Bout to work on some music shortly.
Chillin, man. Bout to work on some music. Yeah, it seems a bit quite here.
Mines one with a shitty mix lol. Everytime I try to learn about mixing add kicks in and I quit after like 5 minutes.
Here's a good approach.
Just balance your levels. (Volumes of tracks)
Just do that. Don't do all this eqing and compressing. Just balance the levels so everything kinda sits together well and nothing is too loud or quiet.
Only then if something can't be heard without making it too loud do you maybe compress or eq it.
I think most people here mix would be insanely better if they did nothing other than get their balance right.
And honestly, the shittest + best advice: just listen. Use your ears.
Most people doing eq and compression with no idea why. Listen to the track... what's wrong? Then find a solution to what's wrong. Many are trying to apply solutions before knowing the problem. And so just end up with problems.

Doing life admin stuff, sorting my gaff out. But had these tunes blasting in the background and working my way through a 4 pack so all good.
The beats tonight are seriously good!

I want to say you're being cheeky but it's probably true
Gd you @Iron Keys i almost had this one. Congrats tho fareal. You deserve it.
Congrats @Iron Keys - really good work. You won in spite of my vote cos I voted for Pappas Beats! There was like 5 beats I really liked though and yours was 2nd.
Congrats @Iron Keys ! My favorite of the lot, and it was a good battle with quite a bunch of darn good entries imo.
Second on my list was @Face Valid, I really dug yours, that old school Nas vibe, just sick !
Then Rakim shown up. I felt he was a bit off rhythm... which is a shame, 'cuz it's Rakim.

Congrats @Iron Keys
I liked @Andante the most, but my vote went to @Jamal. Caught the "The Thing" atmosphere best for me.
@levithareal beginning was really dope, mid somewhat unharmonic to me.
My first beat battle, really cool to see the different approaches everyone took.
