1st choice : beat 3. Great flip of the dialogue in the Ensoniq video. The different changeups and scratches took me back to that era.
2nd choice: beat 1. The filtering closing things and opening it up later was interesting. It feels like a Mo Wax track from mid 90s.
1st: Beat #3 - Loved the scratching. Felt like a journey.
2nd: Beat #2 - I respect the simplicity.

Just waiting on a vote from @NVVI and then I’ll submit mine and we’ll wrap this one up.
Sort so the huge delay everyone
My vote
#1: beat 3
#2: beat 1
My favorites:
1st: Beat 4 – I love dirty loops and this acapella is dope
2nd: Beat 1 – Vocal chops are tight, the demo flips are on point, and the mix is great. I think I sampled the same guitar bit in the intro to mine.
2 points for 1st and 1 for 2nd:
Maxwellthen (Beat 1): 3
v00d00ppl (Beat 2): 1
Me (Beat 3): 6
NVVI (Beat 4): 2
So I guess I need to come up with another concept…?
Crap I keep forgetting to weigh in! Hopfully this isn’t too late or messes crap up.
First place (favorite beat): #3
Second place (favorite lyrics): #4—loved that intro too.
Third place: #1 I like this a lot but I think it needed a more different “b” part.
Beat #2 was a bit too sparse for me.
