Elektronauts Hiphop Beat Battle #13 Shostakovich Edition

I’m totally down with extending the deadline a few days if people are struggling to make the deadline, real life has a great way of dictating how much you can get done in day… I’ve been lucky in as much as I’ve been on vacation from work this past week… so yeah @polarfox how about a stay of execution?

Last two days I thought I’d mastered mine ok then when I stick my other Bluetooth phone headphones on the next day all the levels don’t sound right, so it’s third time lucky for me later lol
But if we are having an extension for submitting I’d rather do it in a day or two with fresh ears rather than today.
If not I’ll send it later and have to live with it :joy:

Also down with prolonging for a week, I’m happy with what i submitted but the more the better!

What do you think @polarfox?

Another vote for extending the deadline, if @polarfox and other folks don’t mind. I’m about a third of the way through mine after a heavy two work-weeks, and while I think I could finish it tonight, it’d be a rush job

I’m down for extending as long as you all don’t mind, I was just trying to squeeze it all into August lol. More beats are always better.

If there are no objections, let’s push the deadline out to next week September 7th at midnight PST.

I’ll edit the original post.

Haha yeah, I spend about an hour making and sequencing the beat, then about a week tweaking a snare drum :joy:

tweaking the parameters on one day, and back to their original position the other day. Repeat.

That’s how it looks like when my mixes take long :sweat_smile:

I remember one happy time…
I spent hours getting a mix sounding good on Digitakt, only to find, once I had finished that I had been doing it with the bass accidentally turned all the way off on my amplifier.
That was a fun day.

Good call on the extension:). All I had was a very annoying phone beat that I mixed on a hotel TV over Bluetooth. I was trying to work up the nerve to submit it in the next 30 minutes. Glad I decided to check the thread first.

Too late to hop in on this one for me but I’m very much looking forward to participating in the next one. Over a decade of boom bap production under my belt and loving this community. I just found this thread a few days ago and I’m looking forward to hearing what you guys are cooking up. Cheers.

Edit: Diving into the last few rounds right now. I’ll definitely throw some thoughts up here after I peep a bit. I’m hyped.
