ROUND 3 IS OVER!

The two beats that advanced to the FINALS: #26 and #27.

Make sure to stop by tomorrow for the FINALS and vote for the beat beat!

What's you guy's approach when you struggle to decide between two beats?

My inclination is to not vote so it serves as a kinda 'vote for both', but it's the final so deserves a vote.

I've scored them about even.

How do you guys decide when stuck between two beats?

go to mix, instuments used, like if they did MORE in their beat which = tougher, stuff like that

I've done all of that. And one beat may lose out in one place and win in another.

I wouldn't say that doing more necessarily equals tougher or better --- using less can actually be a lot tougher or require more to get it sounding like a complete thing, as an example.

Having lots going on can sometimes detract from a beat. Equally, it can offer lots of rich and interesting textures.

So both a minimal and a, erm... "maximal"(?) beat can be equally as tough/good.

I might have to have yet another listen on a third set of speakers to decide.

It doesn't matter to me what style the beats are, I'm voting for what sounds best to me. I'm always looking for the mix, if it has a full sound, whether there's a bassline or not, and the overall vibe. Some beats are dope but are a bit repetitive so changeups are good but some can be too much.

I'm just looking for that sweet spot!
