Winning is great, but I always consider finishing the the top 5 a “win,” at least for me, so be proud of that!
Also finally had a chance to listen to all the beats... I think pretty much every runner-up used alot more technical skills... like
@Eze.K that remix may have been a edm-ish, but its was incredible! and the way
@Iron Keys chopped and stretched different parts of the vocal... I think the only reason I was able to pull off winning this one was the vibe I was able to create...
I kept the tempo the same as the original, and the key of the acapella was the same as the original... But by moving the placement of the snares, and using the relative minor (Gm) of the key of the original song (Bb major), i was able to change the vibe without forcing it too much... the majority of the vocal i kept intact (with so fx), and only chopped in a few places. The beat itself is literally 2 instruments and drums
