STBB 868

Drums, bass and fx sounds added
Flipped and fxed on koala (no addons) this week... to stay on the phone bass is moogs model D app which drove me crazy in the mix.

 
Regarding rules/collabs/entries:

I think we might be making it overly complex. While it's nice to get a win, I don't think most of us are driven by the contest as much as by the sample challenge and the various weekly guidelines themselves. I also haven't found that collabing, or having multiple entries for that matter, actually increases odds of winning the weekly battle. But that's just me. I also find collaborating across the internet to be a bit wonky, but I do think it's a good exercise as well as good for comaraderie and the STBB community, and they are fun to hear.

Lansky and I are currently using a shared studio space and have been a rap duo for 20 years, so I don't think we could stop collabing if we tried lol. When we do collab in STBB Land, it's almost always putting a verse on the other's instrumental. And we enjoy doing that sometimes when the rules allow for outside accapellas, which of late they usually do.

Ultimately, I think we can all agree that we want to have a good healthy competition and a welcoming environment for players new and old, but I also think we do a pretty good job of that already. : )

I support whatever makes the most people happy, but it makes sense to me allow 1 entry per SC page/Forum acct, regardless of who collabs with whom (unless the weekly rules specify ie the Microbeats week)

Hope everyone is having a great week! Lots of heaters so far and I look forward to hearing the remaining entries! - Cheers, Tony

I think that works, 1 eligible entry per STBBForever forum account - someone else said it too. Happy to vote on it though to make sure that it's the consensus and not just a select few who think this.

Full disclosure: I'm not very invested in STBB and will not likely be playing very often after Jan 1st. For what it's worth, I appreciate less rules, generally speaking, because it's more fun that way. All that said, I think STBB is a beat battle (not a producer battle or song battle) and in my opinion, if you wanted to fix some of the perceived issues, just do the following:

1. Only one submission per person per week.
2. No noncompetitive entries (see rule 1).
2. No raps at all. Zero.
3. No A Capellas. Zero.
4. No DJ stuff. Fuck that.
5. Only outside drums and bass (unless the weekly winner decides no outside anything).
6. No collabs.

Personally, that wouldn't be very much fun for yours truly (I'd prefer a song battle forum, truth be told), but I think it would solve the issues that some people seem to be having.
