illest o.g.
The next competition will be from May 6-7th! See the information below.

Signups

The signups will be on May 6th at 1pm ET, and end around 8pm ET, or until we have enough contestants (whichever comes first - depending on the theme). Voting will be for 1 day, on May 7th, 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: SUPER MARIO
Time Limit: 2 MINUTES

  • You must make a beat by sampling the SUPER MARIO theme. DOWNLOAD THE MP3 HERE
  • You can sample any part of the theme but try to use the main part at the beginning: doo-doo-do-d-d-do.



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.

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 favoritism when voting.

Rules

If you're not sure about the rules, read this thread.

If you have any comments, suggestions, or questions about the competition, please post them in here.

lol okay. Man we used to flip the video game samples back in the day and put out instrumental albums. I still have beats where I flipped Metroid,Mike Tyson punch out and solstice. Been like 15 yeas since I've done one and always stayed away from this particular sample Mario because it had been done before by like smiff and wessun (cocoa bros) so gives me a chance to finally see what my mind would do with it.

Get inspired, fuck around with an idea, start questioning it. Get stuck with the Mario Bros theme in your head for 5 hours. Anyone else?
