Beat Battle League Week Eight

With eleven (11) entries in Week Seven, we are excited to change it up this week to keep the momentum going.

This week instead of an universal theme we have two different beats to choose to sample from. You can use one or both in your entry this week.

Entries this week will be accepted until Wednesday night at 11:59 PM CDT / 4:59 AM UTC with the winners being announced on Thursday, October 5.

The judging panel of: @chiefmappster, @vandigital, @danyelk, @instrumentals, and @bambam808 are so pumped to for the change-up for Week Eight of the League.

Without further adieu, here are the details for Week Eight of the Beat Battle League:

Remember the entries are judged on:

• Sound Quality: does this shit sound crispy, in speakers and headphones, is there cracking or recording errors? How loud can we play it before you notice quality issues? etc

• Technicality: what are the skills you displayed in making this beat? The technical aspects of the your craft. The layers and sounds do they match? How many? etc

• Creativity: how unique your entry is. How well it revolves around the universal theme? O shit we have never heard that sound before? Stuff like that.

Also, sharing the story about the creation of your art in your Steemit post helps the judging panel and community gain perspective and knowledge on yourself and the message you are sharing.

The prize pool is as follows:

FIRST PLACE WINNER: 65 Whaleshares + 20 SBD for a total of 85 Points

SECOND PLACE WINNER: 50 Whaleshares + 10 SBD for a total of 60 Points

THIRD PLACE WINNER: 40 Whaleshares + 6 SBD for a total of 46 Points

FOURTH PLACE WINNER: 30 Whaleshares + 4 SBD for a total of 34 Points

CROWD FAVORITE: 10 SBD for a total of 10 Points

The crowd favorite can be awarded to any Steemian with any entry this week. So the first place winner could win additional rewards or it could be another Steemian. All depends on you the Steemit community :)
