    Attack of the Beats! - Battle #117

    @Fade I listened back to the beat... Made that like 6 months ago... I'm not hearing whats out of tune. Seems like everything is in E minor, could you be more specific on which parts are sounding out of tune to u? Also the beat is composed of the sample (female vocal and guitar), with some keys...

    Production 8 Things I Would Change in Hip Hop Production (If I Had a Time Machine)

    I understand why u say that... but I don't think "Ha" changed rap forever. Growing up in Louisiana, this is the type of music we listened to, we weren't into the east coast/west coast stuff.

    Jeannine Otis & Heikki Sarmanto - "Flowers In The Water"

    Ok... Here we go... @Klypse I think i'll agree with the others, would've like to hear the change up as the main part of the beat... @S3oulC1ty The bassline sounds good... Seems to be a lil loud/heavy in the mix imo @Edgar I like the drums (ur drums are always pretty dope on these sample flips)...

    How do you do your melodies, chords, and chord progressions?

    Not necessarily true... I know many people would disagree, but if you create good melodies and good chord progressions, u don't need the best vsts... I use mainly free/stock vsts myself... After some fx and eqing, some of those free/stock vsts can sound pretty decent... Not necessarily true...

    How do you do your melodies, chords, and chord progressions?

    I play out all the chord progressions... Sometimes I work the chords out on guitar, then transpose them to the keys or sometimes only keys... It really depends on how I'm feeling. If you dont know anything about music theory... Just try to learn about triads. That will help u soooo much with...
