Theme: CLASSICAL (SAMPLING)
Time Limit: 2 minutes
Vocal Track Allowed?: NO

• You must make a beat by SAMPLING Classical music!
• If you are not sure about Classical, refer to this post.
• Time limit is 2 minutes.
• NO VOCALS

===========
*NOTE: From now on there's a criteria called "vocal track allowed?". It will be yes or no. If it's "yes", this means you can have a full vocal track with your beat (acapella, for example). You can still have occasional vocal snippets (but don't rely on them too much).
===========

You can use whatever sounds you want, samples, synths, just remember to read the rules for the rest of the restrictions. What the judges will be looking for is originality, creativity, mixing skills and overall dopeness!

Voting

If you are competing, you will be able to vote but not for yourself. DO NOT TRY TO CHEAT! I will be watching for cheaters. This means you cannot sign up under different names or get your friends and family to sign up either. If you are caught cheating you could be banned.

Beats

All the beats will now be displayed in a random order and without any names. All you will see is: Beat #001, Beat #002, etc. This is so that there is no favouritism when voting.

Rules

If you're not sure about the rules, read this thread.

If you have any comments, suggestions, or questions about the competition, please post them in here.

It's not working tried it a couple ways so far. Might have to sit this one out

I really can't do this sample nonsense least not in the way I'm trying to!

Why @Iron Keys you hate classical? I dig it in the form of when orchestras play video game music. Try listening to some Black classical

Please let this be about the battle itself and not about how certain people can't do something.

 

[TWU]

Count me in. Theme is lit.

It's not that deep, i just said i had a cool idea. Didn't work out. I laughed about it. Dunno why such overreactions.

There's just hardly any I like. Doesn't resonate with me. I love some and some orchestral stuff. Just not keen on in hiphop beats.

Like i said, I'm sure many will love it. So dunno why the tears.

 

[Face Valid]

I like this concept I'm in!

Because the last few you kept complaining and then couldn't make up your mind!

Didn't complain, just said I didn't have a battle type beat ready.

It was everyone else up in arms at the idea of me not entering it.

The previous one I said I had a great track.

So really this ain't on me.

 

[LiveLargeBeats]

I work with crooks, its never their fault they got locked up.



Not sure if ill enter since i already dropped two (selfmade) orchestral beats..still have a buzz in my ears from the strings on loop lol
But very curious about yall entries! Wanna hear some dope shit!! You sample mofo's better be coming real hard on this one.,i expect nothing but fire

 

[Iron Keys]

Attempted again, mayyy be semi-submittable. If it's decent enough I'll chuck it up.

***NOTE

Just remember that you have to make a Classical beat by SAMPLING Classical, not making your own composition.

 

[l2iceKooKa]

im new to this ..which is why im asking u a question......sooo for this next battle...i have to sample a classical song? or just something classical ..like...for an example...chop sticks?...lol.....or like beethoven kinda thing? do i have to use the actual sample or can i compose the the song as long as it sounds the same??
