Beat This! Beat This! Competition - November 27-28, 2024

Iron Keys

ILLIEN MBAPPÉ
ill o.g.
Battle Points: 690
I based my voting on who best captured the feeling of 'Emergency' as described in the theme.

My vote went to @Bandia Gotach --- gave me that sense of tension and urgency. I think the 'feeling' felt akin to mine. Particularly that first half melody/arp. Great work

@BizangoNigma - this was my other option, the other beat I think closely matched the theme. Really great production and mix, this is dope work. So good I thought it may have been a Crog entry! (a very good battler here)

My favorite beat here was @TWU --- just didn't match the theme for me. The mix is both great and not; it reminds me of those NY mixtapes early 2000s, but in that sense, i fucking love the mix/texture. Would play this beat back2back; get a vocal on that!!!

@hosie - I was fascinated with your kick drum; feels over the top, but in a way that really works --- love it. Proper vibey beat too, dope af. Only reason missing my consideration today, is for me 'Emergency' screams 'urgency' so needed that feel. But generally, great work.

To everyone else, great work ---some good stuff in there, my reasons for overlooking would be down to the emotion not matching my idea of what the theme was. That could be down to either production choices or mix choices you made. If anyone wants any specific/personalised feedback just gimme a shout

Love
