Fake breaks

I’m super inspired by Barry Beats’ recent three-part fake breaks episode, especially since there are no sample clearance issues and it’s all your work.



I think it would be cool to do a fake breaks rap week in the style of Mario C from the Beastie Boys. Basically take a Beastie Boys a cappella track and have people use either VSTs or real instruments/recordings to create all your own samples to chop. This would be a good way to practice the “fake breaks” technique for our own music outside the beat battles.

BTW, this Red Bull Academy video on Mario C is pure gold if you want to know more about how the Beastie tunes were made. Legendary. It’s a little slow at the beginning but well worth giving it a chance.

Watched RedLetterMedia review Willy Wonka and I forgot how much I enjoyed this one as a kid - The soundtrack is really special (except Charlie's mom song lol)

In some old video with Alchemist, Oh No was showing off so many Willy Wonka flips that could be a good inspiration, sad none of these got released anywhere!





Might be a fun battle - I have it in WAV if anyone needs it!

Uplifting Cuban beat flips.
This album is a gold mine. Andalucia is my favorite from it. Two tracks from this album would be good for a beat battle.

Alice in Wonderland-esque themed battle.
In either using musical / vocal samples from the different adaptations of the story, or using the video-game soundtracks as the main sample material. Lots of creative potential with a challenge that explores the descent into the rabbit hole.

Beat battle that samples old Indian films
Here's a good song from one. I thought this would be neat for a battle.

Just for big chillin'. 2009 era Bonobo flips.

Its a bit weird but i thought of a beat battle idea....

What if people could choose an Original Sound Track from an 80s Action Movie (so must have been released in cinemas between 1/1/80 - 31/12/89) to sample on a first come first served basis. So the first to claim an OST on the battle thread claims it then makes a beat from it... Then you must use only vocal samples from the movie you picked.

Then at the end you'll have lots of different beats from different movies and could make a mixtape out of it hehe

Hey guys.... was going to do this idea for this weeks battle but though it would be a bit too convoluted... what do you think??

 

[The DTs]

Hey all, This showed up in my google feed. I loved it. It might be a change of pace from nice melodic stuff we usually chop up.


also this one might have more of a world beat thing going on in it

Just some ideas in case we get desparate. Peace, Hugh

Hey Guys, I bought this cd in Atlanta recently and I had to make a google drive download so I could listen to it cause my cd drive is busted so I am sharing it with whoever digs the Cramps and/or kinda rockabilly. It is 61 songs so gives you many choices if used for a beat battle, Peace Hugh

This guy Matt Johnson of Jamiroquai fame plays some mean keyboard. Could be a sample set like just the sounds in this video:
