Beat This! - April 24-25, 2019

[Fade]

The next competition will be from April 24-25th! See the information below.

Signups

The signups will be on April 24th at 10am ET, and end around 8pm ET, or until we have enough contestants (whichever comes first - depending on the theme). Voting will be for 1 day, on April 25th, where the results will be posted the same day.

Go here to signup (click the "signup" tab - it will open up on the signup day)

Theme: REMIX

Time Limit: 3 MINUTES

• You must make a full song using this Travis Scott acapella.
• The BPM is 155.
• The zip file contains the acapella and the instrumental so you can match it up to your beat (just to make sure you're at the same tempo).

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 favoritism 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.

Do we have to use given instrumental in the remix too or is it cool to use just acapella?

 

[Armani]

Holy shit, i just found the beat that i thought it was really good for this acapella, when i checked the bpm out it was 155

The instrumental is just so you can match it up to your beat so you know you're at the right tempo. It makes it easier to line up the vocals too.

Why wouldn't you be? Just figure out the correct time to sign up.

Ok cool. I'm in

Wow, this is really disappointing. There doesn't seem to be much interest in this theme I guess. Not many signups so far.

maybe I'll finally win a Beat This! Competition. Not so hard when it's me VS me :biggrin:

LOL. Usually themes bring in less signups and something like this with vocals is even harder. But I thought maybe a bunch of people would be up for the challenge. This is why the "no theme" ones are best since it's so straightforward.

Not At All @Fade , its a really dope theme, the thing is that you didnt pick a appropriate song. That song is really unique, both the vocal and the beat. So nobody had any beat to fit with the acapella, so people had to make fresh beats and mix it with the acapella which is Really hard in this case and takes time... And most people here would rather make boom baps, that acapella is kinda trappy.

I loved this theme but i had exams so i had no time :/

If the majority doesnt want to participate in themed battles its because :

1 : they dont have time
2 : they aint pro enough to make beats from every genre
3 : the theme wasnt their thing

I mean No offence But fuck the majority, if u remove themes then there will be nothing to seperate real/creative producers from the other beatmakers. Let one-dimensional monkeys be happy with beat it up, Beat This is where the real ones battle, even if theres only 3 people. The less the people are, means the ones who participated should get more credit.

Its fun to hear this from a guy who only won some beat it ups and an aotb.

 

[Fade]

Oh c'mon, how is that my fault? Either people can make a beat for it or they can't. My guess is most are used to just uploading whatever beat they have for the competition instead of making one from scratch.

 

[Sole Element]

Yes i'm in! had to rush a remix last night and didn't have a lotta time to edit but whatever just ready to battle again!! good luck to all contestants!
