Interesting rules for this month. The GIF is perfect

Congrats again on the win!

Congrats on the win joa and gd!!!
NICE Rules... This makes us use the four weeks.
Usually i would have started with the melodic part... That brings up one question for me... are we allowed to make changes in the drumloop in week four like for breaks or replace some kicks?
Either way... Count me in...

thanks mr. nbtbl!
glad u dig.
yes, the challenge is to make your melodic samples fit with your drumbeat made in week 1.
it's cool and I think even desired to eventually customise your drumbeat for the arrangement of the track.
I'm not sure what you mean with replacing kicks?
once you've chosen certain kick you gotta stick with it.
I can imagine you'd wanna maybe pitch it a little, to fit the key of your melody.
if you mean, adding or removing a kick or other hit here and there to create a variation, that's a yes.

have fun!

[mr. nbtbl]

Thanks for clarification J.
With replacing i meant to find a a new place for a particular drumhit in case it has troubles with his new neighbors...

[JoaGymshoe]

that was fun!..

do you guys wanna make suggestions for the melodic sample for Sunday?
we could have a little vote to decide which one to use.

[Soul-Jutsu]

Congrats JG and GD. Cool idea to split the month up like this into beat parts. Enjoyed focusing on drums.

How about least votes in drum round gets to pick sample? Or is that too out there?

[Soul-Jutsu]

Ok, I messed up!

Didn't properly read the post or even realise there was a sample pack for the drums.

Joa messaged and was like where did you get that vocal from?

I Just got to chopping breaks as per usual when I make drums.

Copped my first DQ!

I'll have something else up by Saturday because this is a dope idea.

[waxramble]

Haha that was a dope drum beat, looking forward to the next one

[BettyChopper]

So.... clearly the length of said drumbeat can change.... yeah? I sometimes start with drums but often with melody so..... Changes can happen. Just clarifying to make sure I'm reading correctly..
Thanks!
Oh, and I'd asked elsewhere, but no collabs... correct? Unless otherwise specified as in regular battles?

yes. you can make the drum beat fit to your desired arranngement
collaborating is fine.. I think that was just in GD's wrestle battle that it wasn;t.

[waxramble]

Ha I would have thought the opposite, collabs are fine unless stated

[Soul-Jutsu]

Had another go with the samples this time.

Ugh. This quoting thing... anywho, Waxramble is confusing me (again! (Totally joking) ... but to clarify , we can ALWAYS submit a collaboration (being the 1 veat we enter, no side best on our own) in ANY battle unless stated?


P.S. does this forum make anyone else feel totally computer illiterate

haha.. quoting is tricky sometimes :p
collaberating is always allowed unless stated in the ruleset at the top of the specific beat battle challenge

pz!
