Did you use Alchemist Vol. 1 drumkit?

@DBR This is dope
@DJ Dope-Needlz This is also Nice. The sample sounded good, The slowness of it and that heavy reverb on the cross shot/ took some of the emotion from the sample.

Great Battle.

I'm going with DBR

Gotta go with DBR with that cinematic feel. I could picture this in a movie or something. Dope Needlz I like that sample you used, I think your drums kind of sit on top of the sample rather than blending in with it tho.

DBR took this one. Dope beat. Nice mix, drops, transitions, etc Really love all the added instrumentation as well.

DJ Dope Needlz... nice beat, fam! Welcome to the Tunnel! Great sample. Really liked the way you filtered it in and out. My only gripe is that the drums (mainly the snare) could be blended in better.

Dope battle.

DBR the trap titan took it though. He had the more polished sounding beat. Everything was on point.

Dope Needlz had a great sample, but the drums didn't seem like they were really a part of the track. Almost like they were just placed right on top so they kinda stood out too much if that makes sense. Overall the beat was nice it's just that it got held back a little because of that.

good battle
dbr had that epic feel when it started off and had a cool vibe throughout dope beat
dj dope had a pretty cool beat love beats with that type of vibe. sample sounded kinda drowned out though or maybe its like other were saying about the drums took a little bit away from it

yeah, i already expected people to say that about the sample not being loud enough.
The sample was bad quality on the Low-End so i couldnt really mix it well with the drums. next time better.

went with DBR, that piano was mad sinister and provided a chill and menacing soundtrack :whew:. DJ Dope Needlz (dope name by the way :wow:) beat was dope too, nice sample, like how the record needle sound was still heard within the sample also, gave it that organic feel which is my speed, i agree with the above mentioned about the snare though.

@DBR them keys though :banderas:


@DJ Dope-Needlz Welcome fam. that sample is ill. The snare doesnt really fit with it though. With a cleaner mix, it could be a great ass beat :yes:
