Scrambled Crates #7

Once again, I participated in another edition of Scrambled Crates. The mission is simple: take a sample from the track provided and build a new song. Here is the track @Jillzworth provided:

And here is the song I made:

Check out Them Fighting Words to hear the work of some amazing producers! I am truly humbled to have my beats featured with so many other amazing artists.

Scrambled Crates #6!!!

Check this out. Last month, I received a sample from the lovely @Jillzworth via e-mail. The only rule was to make a 2 minute beat using the sample provided… a rule I, of course, misunderstood (which will become apparent as you listen to the other entries). I ended up creating an entire beat out of sounds derived from the sample ONLY, while the rest of the producers involved incorporated other sounds into their beats. Sooooooo, my beat definitely scores points for degree of difficulty, but I really could have expanded the sound a lot had I understood what I could and could not do. There’s always Scrambled Crates #7 (coming soon)!

Anyway, here is the original sample provided:

And here is the result of my efforts:

I like my beat more and more considering the unnecessary restrictions I placed on myself. It kind of sounds like a hippie made a beat… which is, I’m sure, a total surprise!

You can check out the other 19 producers take on this task right HERE. There is some pretty amazing stuff!

Bennett Family Cameo!

Mudkids. Indie legends. Indy legends. You already know. The boys have something special brewing with the long awaited “We Are Dynamic And People Like Us,” but in the mean time we get little bits and pieces of goodness to tide us over. The above video is one such morsel of the goods… this time, it’s even better though, because…

Peep the Bennett Family Cameo at the 46 second mark! Yeah, we’re famous and stuff.
