    this is the first beat ive made since i got back from malm??. made on my laptop, it butchers anything you record into it so i havent used it for much before. but i thought the sound was just right for this beat. it says its 16bit but pretty clearly isnt.

    ako - i am feelin this one! the drums are crisp as hell

    jaymack - not too bad but not really my thing , drums sound a little too digital for my tastes

    mcdee - this is gritty as hell.. I'm lovin it . . dark vibes

    not just a 'beat' , but something that is coming out soon on 12"

    it's cool, but it doesn't have an original sound or anything. i mean it sounds like something cut chemist did in '97 or some shit.

  • mcdeemcdee 871 Posts

    Just some ol'shit I've been messing with. The sample should be quite obvious, let see who can actually guess it. Just a rough mix so please go easy on me.

  • mcdeemcdee 871 Posts
    ok sorry, should probably not go too offtopic here, but that cover bugged me and i didnt know where to post it.

    TrueStu that beat is nice, kick is kinda strange sounding but i like it overall.

    catalist great track, hypnotic grooves. whats the rest of the 12" like?
  • catalistcatalist 1,373 Posts
    the other track on the 12" is more in the vein of a Verve remixed track, it's Billie holiday - Crazy he Calls me

    check it out:

    Crazy

    "whipped up" this quick little sequence, using exclusively that record:

    Damn, I've been ill (meaning sick) lately, so I don't have anything fresh to add myself this time. Just some quick feedback:

    McDee - Love that distorted danger feel.

    Catalist - , although it's a little unfair since those two tracks are done and mastered, not just beats. And you know you're going to get A LOT of comparisons to Alex Gopher 'The Child' for that Lady Day sampling track, right?

    Upskiboo - digging the mellow vibe, but the 64 kbps encoding is not doing your track any kind of justice. Sounds muffled and I know that wasn't your intention. Don't be stingy with the bitrate, mate.

    Ako - Never going wrong. Sweet, but very short.

    nice beats everyone. blaz - i particularly like "rainy" with the fucked, off time drums. contort- very heavy shit. killer drums. i read about museum stuff ages ago in grandslam magazine (r.i.p.) have to try and pick some up.

    check out my beats:

    m dejean

    thanks for the feedback

    I didn't know about that track, I just checked out the video, I'm glad I didn't use the same track as him, because then I really would have gotten compared.. His track sounds totally different than mine, so it's cool, plus this is on some white label limited release steez as of right now

    blaz i'm about to check your myspace
