Alright, didn’t have as much time as I thought I did, so I’m just posting my quasi finished attempt.
Used Drum Computer for the drums.
Korg OpSix for the synth line.
Various filters, reverbs, and stuff.
Thank you @natehorn for another banger of a track!

I think this has got to be my favourite collection of tracks that has come out of these challenges. Perfect time of year for them too Said it before but awesome sample choice Nate

malus_mons · 2023-06-19T15:16:28.281Z

feeling some hybrid afrobeat/hip hop vibes.

monquixote · 2023-06-19T23:02:39.252Z

Was such a fun track I had to have another go this time with some wonky drunk hip hop including a bit of our old friend MF Doom.

Edit, updated and fixed.

monquixote · 2023-06-20T08:17:51.960Z

Hmm listening back this morning I’m not quite happy with this yet so I’ll give it a tweak this evening.

monquixote · 2023-06-20T22:14:59.176Z

Fixed the track above adding some more backing vocals and improving some levels.

natehorn · 2023-06-21T15:45:48.173Z

Tight!!

Is that some custom artwork too btw?? It’s troubling but very cool

monquixote · 2023-06-21T15:47:24.559Z

Thanks buddy.

No I stole it from a random google search!

Yabba · 2023-06-21T16:12:30.534Z

Echoing previous sentiments, you guys are all great and this has been a really good week.
Also good to see a new face start posting with such high standard:

If it wasn’t for things like this I’d never complete a beat and would forever dwell in the realm of an 8 bar scrap that I’d never finish

wignersfriend · 2023-06-21T17:41:08.447Z

this is so good! i like it way better than the original. it’s going on my tubing mix

malus_mons · 2023-06-21T18:58:42.203Z

Appreciate it! I was just looking for a vocal track that had the same bpm as mine and the two fit perfectly.

natehorn · 2023-06-22T14:45:17.000Z

Love that you all dug this one so much! We’ll have to revisit Total Contrast later in the year for a round 2

Thanks to everyone for your amazing tracks and your community spirit

See you all in a couple days for @aarb420 's next pick - the bar is clearly high the pressure is on!!

Thanks to yourself also, and for the stems which is a nice touch.
I managed to convert a whole tune for the hip hop battle instead of just a loop for the first time ever, the other day.
Only took 5 hours

mpicard · 2023-06-26T15:19:54.585Z

So I officially missed the boat on this one, was busy but I would like to challenge myself and do something in a week for practice, the WT stem link has expired, does someone have a copy of that they are willing to share again? It’s a good one

aarb420 · 2023-06-26T16:13:25.293Z

@mpicard hey, I’d love to help you out, but my computer is unable to run stemroller successfully without dying.

Here is a link to the stemroller app site that you can download and try for yourself, and hopefully @natehorn or one of the other kind folk here still has their sample folder that they can share with you!

natehorn · 2023-06-26T16:44:58.041Z
