PMed!

1. slanteyez - the jay dee vibe got me. soulful lo-fi chord chops, spare and funky drums, funky sine bass. cool switch up at the end. 2. Bleep - very solid lo-fi house flip, really nice vocal ad libs in there, this is classy. another cool switch up at the end. 3. WigMaster - really like this flip, ...

Didn't want to get stuck into just one sound, so got some distortion with the Stark Reality, some more traditional with Cal and Bobby, and even got some more 80s sounding stuff with one of the Roy Ayers (def not most popular Roy Ayers which is why I wanted to see if anything comes out of this lol) ...

Soul-Jutsu - Really unique vibe, plodding groove, cool sound design, and particularly the sense of subtle evolution and care for composition (which my beat lacked) brought this to number 1 for me. FatVonFree - Dude. Took you one day to put out this dope psychedelic rock hip hop soul jam AND a video...

Thanks man! I'll get to work!

the beat may only consist of bass.. which can be a synth, a bass guitar. stand up or bass sample drums and percussion you can make a more melodic beat by bass melody pitching perc. acas. hope this clarifies? Sorry, not trying to be pedantic about this, but I'm honestly still confused... percussion ...

make a beat using Bass(synth). Drums. and Percussion
...
feel free to make it more melodic than this if you like though

To that end, are synths or external instruments allowed in addition to bass?

Edit: Maybe limited to pitched percussion sounds e.g. marimba, bells, etc?

Congratz on the win! I might just join in this week, haven't done a beat battle since like #356 (which incidentally was also a collab week). *cracks his fingers*

I haven't done a beat battle since right around the same time, #336! *also cracks his fingers*

1) JA:KOVA - gorgeous flip, love the vibe and the drums
2) SoDamnFresh - nice vibe, great work with the drums
3) Lonius - dope, just wish it didn't have that glitch sound at the end of the loop

...and there were many other good ones!
