Alright, we’re almost two months into this challenge.

The last and final deadline shall be August 20th. So we’ll wrap this up NEXT FRIDAY and can start with voting and hopefully have a new challenge for all of us at some point.

Finally managed to get something together.
Thanks to @the_PMO and everybody for your patience.

Press play and scroll down to read a little about what went into the track;

the_PMO and myself have been talking prior to this. He was asking about the kick drum Mr. G produced. We shared a few DM’s and I gave Mr. G a listen. Some downright cool and funky stuff. That’s why I wanted to hit him up and see if he’d like to collaborate.

We made this track by @the_PMO making a kit of one hits and one chain.
I loaded it into my RYTM and arranged the samples. I added a few extra samples. One of my own cowbell samples playing notes to give some musicality. I also kept Mr. G’s tunes in my head as I went to work.

I recorded the stereo file into Logic in one take. I did a bit of cut and shut and added some plugins for final sound.

Awesome, will give it a listen later today!

Will collect all the tracks for voting in a separate thread tonight/tomorrow. Would be really nice if @LyingDalai can then work his mod magic to create the voting tool so that anyone on the forum can vote? :slight_smile:

I’m a super bad collaborator of @sezare56. I didn’t find the time for music as I’m working like a dog (a deadline in September…)

!!!WowowowowowoowowowowoW!!!

…. Holy shhhmokes!!! These tunes are hotter than a beach towel laid out on the sun :sunny:

…. I’ve had such a busy week… such a busy time… Japan, it’s cool living here but cor blimey it’s busier than a fly who just found a fresh log on the lawn.

This was one of the first times I got to sit down and chill to some music all whilst sippin’ a gin and tonic. Only one interruption!

Thoroughly enjoyed all the entries. Hats off to you guys. A great bunch of lovely people, passionate about their hobby, with a lot of great ideas and machines. I am surprised more people here aren’t full time artists. Amazing!

Thank you all so much for making this a great and memorable Open Battle. I’ve literally only switched on my machines to extract the work I had collaborated on in the past month. Listening to these tunes makes me want to find ways to get in front of my gear more.

Special thanks to @the_PMO for the collabo…. Thanks to @LyingDalai for trying to… and a big, huge load of gratitude for @korpinen for coming up with this idea. I am sure I read that you hope more collaborations will continue after this battle has finished. I truly hope so too!

Cheers everyone :wink:
