@curdledgurled - wow, totally hardcore! First time I’ve heard that kind of thing produced on the Op-1. Love the distorted sound and scary voice samples. Reminds me a lot of mid 90’s hardcore.
Big ups to @SammyJams and @borden who had killer tracks, but @mixrasta takes the taco on this one (i.e. gets my vote). In fact all the songs were Big Up worthy. I think it’s great that at least 3 of the 7 songs in this battle have samples sourced from a cannibal movie from 35 years ago…
voting pool update.
@aeoner - hope you can participate in the next battle! your tracks always make an impact. feel free to cast a vote, but even with one more for someone else, mixrasta would still be up at least 1 (since he is up 2 as of now).
@LyingDalai - your comments on my track made me laugh. thanks for your interpretation, perfect. (my b-day’s in November though…and unfortunately unlike my “groove”, i’m growing older by the minute). ha!
Maybe us others can, like, yield
Congrats @mixrasta! Thanks to everyone for taking part. And a huge thank you to everyone who commented - I feel a bit guilty for being so brief with my comments, I’ll make sure to take more time for it the next time around, as it’s really interesting to hear any thoughts others have on your own tunes - I’m sure we’ve all been there
All in all - it’s been an absolute blast, once again thanks everyone. I hope mixrasta sets up a new one quick
Thanks for the votes, mentions and thoughtful comments @josker, @Spheric_El, @LyingDalai, @yoof & @aeoner. Congrats @mixrasta for the win and thanks @kln for organizing a great battle!
Sorry for not commenting more on your tracks, I’ll step up next time. =)
Thanks everybody! Exciting! I’ll let you all know about the new rules as soon as possible!
I don’t have internet at home and just came back to work reading the good news…
Okay, totally forgot to write my recensions ; )
@curdlegurled Your soundcloud picture totally matches the track! Got it, that’s what’s going on in her brain and the texture of your song has the same hypnotising feel like Sarah’s bathrobe!
@josker, well I’m listening to your track almost everyday, even tho it’s not automatically playing in a playlist. But, one last thing to say is that the bellpianosounds in the beginning totally remind me of the piano skits on Drukqs by Aphex Twin!
@SammyJams I like how your song evolves out of the short loop into an indian palace-dance-environment. The Bassline is incredibly cool and kind of holds all parts together!
@vehka One gets in a deeper mood with your guitar play and it feels like I’m watching out of window to a skandinavian lake.
@edzilla Crazy, how people play the same melody up and down, anywhere and all the time! Your track is a cool boogiefunk journey thru many diffrent stages. Funky! and thx for the patches. Is that your laughter or from the cannibal movie? ; )
@borden This is a solid production. Maybe the fact you had not enough time left was good for it! Very clear and not to complicated, makes it an interesting 80’s wave on a moody tip!
@kln Hit it! … and yes you hit it with this battle.
