Get that BPM up and you’re good.
Started my summer holiday today, as NOT evinced by this melancholy track.
Over 20 degrees plus in Finland now! We go crazy! (What a sneaky way to bump this topic, right?) Anyone who uses bits from this song in their battle track is (almost) guaranteed to get my vote.
great job! I’ll be voting for you just for going with the VU!
20 days to go! Still plenty of time to hop on board this challenge. Cos this time we’re not extending the deadline (who am I kidding?).
@Fin25 You got the OT? You’re in now, right?
I’ll do my best
I’ll never do one of these challenges ( lazy / time / miotivation ) but if I won my new challenge would be - unheard tracks.
Make a track which you’ve never heard.
i.e program beats , melodies etc but never actually listen to it until it’s been uploaded and submitted .
The only indication that there is actual audio would be the display of a wave form or the blinking of leds on a mixer.
I see so many ‘ unheard mixes ‘ released, or ‘ unseen footage ‘ videos posted and that description is nonsense. In every case someone has looked at it or edited the video before uploading.
This challenge would at least be a little more truthful.
About a week till the deadline. Come join us!
Might miss this one.
Nice concept, I wish more there were more entries.
here’s my nonsense, Happy summer everyone

@tapesky and @1-2 thank you for your entries!
If someone else really wants to take part in this battle but needs a little extra time, that’s still possible (just let us know). If not, I’ll close this battle tomorrow and start preparing the voting part.
Please extend to Sunday evening, I have been way too busy lately but I’d love to drop a track.
Cool, will do! Deadline extended to Monday.
I failed, I did took some time to make music and sampled some Beck but couldn’t come up with something in a few hours.
Got something for other projects, though ^^
Alright, thanks for letting us know! I’ll prepare the voting later today probably - wonder if regular users can still set up polls though?
@Smapti - It seems your track isn’t available anymore. If you want to be part of the voting, just give me a shout and I’ll add you in the voting thread / poll.
Voting is now open here.
Nice challenge this one.
My idea was to dig through my records and find a track with summer in the title, sample a bit of that. Then sample some Donna Summer, and mash the two together in a DnB mess.
Never got round to it though. Busy with stuff.
