Hey All, Thanks for the votes :D
Vangelis Tribute Week
Image
Here are the rules.
I have posted 2 tracks from the Blade Runner soundtrack by Vangelis. Vangelis had a big impact on me as a kid so I thought we should pay tribute since he recently passed. Feel free to use another Vangelis track if you want.

Outside anything is ok.
The single rule is there must be an 8 count break (can be much longer if wanted)where the kick and snare stop and it creates a mood that is all up to you.
Other percussion is fine but just no kick and snare beat going. The break can be anywhere in the song.

Have Fun and Peace!

I believe Blade Runner Blues - Vangelis file is broken, it's only 944KB. Could you please check on your side?

Hey White Mane Horse and everyone else,
Sorry I put that up in a hurry. It is fixed now but with just 2 tracks. Look forward to hearing what everybody comes up with. I hope I left it pretty wide open. Thanks, Hugh

Im big fan of Vangelis but this songs were a real struggle to sample from and make it groovy. But with some help from Tha Alkoholiks i made it through the struggle
