DnB BATTLE #8: ORGAN DONOR

LATEST DnB CHALLENGE HAS BUBBLED UP!

For this month’s challenge I ask you to consider the sound of the organ.

So few instruments can range up to the size of a large building. Or if you want, fit in your coat pocket. So few instruments rival the organ for power, humanity, and earthiness.

So as March marches us into spring, this month’s battle is about harnessing the power and versatility of the organ. Electric or pneumatic. Analog or digital. Divine or demoniac. St. Stephen’s Cathedral or Steamboat Willy’s Calliope. It’s up to you. But your track must focus on—and ideally reimagine—the sound and role of the organ, whether it’s a bubbly skank, the doink of a DX7, or a screaming Farfisa.

Otherwise, your only limitations are your own creativity, track length and (extremely porous) genre conventions.

THE RULES:
—Create a Drum & Bass or Jungle track; use any gear you want
—Your track MUST BE BUILT AROUND AN ORGAN SAMPLE, LOOP, or ORGAN-STYLE SYNTH PATCH (presets are fine)
—Keep it under 6 minutes!
—Post inspiration tracks in the thread!

—Send me a WAV/AIFF/FLAC by End of Day
SUNDAY, March 22nd!!!

Have fun & good luck!
