Folks, there seems to have been a little glitch in the drum track, power surge by Frank McDonald, so I uploaded a new copy, should be better now

I was trying to make a moody piano piece with the Joy Crooks tune, but I just couldn't get a bassline to work for me

so I went with a stripped back approach, it's basically just the drum track and the acapella, with a snippet of sax and vocal from Tower of Power, no outside samples used

Thanks for the support

No outside samples, just the tracks provided.
Big shout out to Joa for this dope collab!

Alright guys, I've got something cooking for this, but just a quick question.... I know the rules state no outside drums but does turning a 808 into a bassline count as breaking that rule?

No problem at all,

Last day for entries folks, get those tunes finished

 

[The Marksman]

Sadly I'm going to pass on this one as I left it to the 13th hour to start it and I really can't get the bassline working with the sample chops. So it's currently residing in the "Unfinished Projects" folder, will jump on the next one
