"Manila" MP3 - Downtempo Download
I regularly take part in beat battles on the Stones Throw Records message board. The weekly battle is popular with hip-hop beat makers, but also some downtempo beat cats like myself.
The idea is simple. Last weeks winner posts a sample, usually some obscure jazz or soul track, and everyone chops it up and tries to do something cool with it. I slowed the sample down and mashed it up with some slow clappy beats. The talent on there is insane. I only ever won it once, but that was still something I was proud of.
Maybe one day #music will be busy enough that we can have some beat battles or remix competitions?

! ;)thats a dope beat man. I like the pop on the drum. Hope you don't take offense but the snare sounded like "Steal My Sunshine" from way back.
Cheers man, You talking about the song my "Len"? I can kinda hear what you mean, with the double tap snare thing.
yup that song.
I'm listening to it now. Weirdly catchy. I think that piano hook thing was from some old disco record.
