Beat This! - January 17-18, 2018

[Fade]

The next competition will be from January 17-18th! See the information below.

Signups

The signups will be on January 17th at around 10am ET, and end around 8pm ET, or until we have 16 contestants (whichever comes first). Voting will be for 1 day, on January 18th, 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: PIANO

• You MUST have Piano in your beat!
• We MUST be able to hear the Piano in your beat!

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 (depending on the mood I'm in).

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.

Sponsor

This month, the competition will be sponsored by Greg Savage & DIY Music Biz, where the winner will get 1 on 1 consultation from industry insider Greg Savage on music licensing.

I just voted. I heard like 4 beats that weren't quantized. I'm not 1 to judge but I am lol. Take the time people. It'll only make you sound better. Ijs... Good luck to everybody still.

@Kron Zilla , I definitely agree

Yeah it used to be 20 beats max but then I shortened it to 16 because of peoples' attention spans today. But for some reason this one was super popular and everyone wanted in so we're at 21!

I think being on grid is for pop music, my opinion
