STBB Monthly Battle #001
January 2019


New Year Vibes

Click the GIF for Battle of the Vibes!!!

As promised, here is the first STBB Monthly Battle!!! I'm not sure if I will have many opportunities to host a battle given so many talented producers on the board here, so I wanted to make this one count with the most badass instrument as focus. Samples are from some of my favorite Vibraphone artists, I tried to stick with lesser known or sampled songs since all of these dudes have been flipped before of course. Hope you have some fun with this one, really looking forward to what you guys can do with a whole month of time!! Happy New Year!!!!

RULES
Flip at least one of the provided samples
Outside instruments, VST's, drums, cuts/fx allowed - Vibraphones should be audible though!!

Hell yeah man!! I'm really looking forward to getting stuck into this one
The samples are awesome! There's so much to play with, I'm glad we have a month to work on something properly for this.

The only song by Stark Reality I've heard is 'Comrades'
Those vibes that come in at 0.12 seconds send chills down my spine!

Thanks!

Haha yeah that Stark Reality is full of jams, wish I could have included Comrades or Dreams, but they've been sampled quite a few times. Went with some of their more distorted ones, curious to see if anyone can do something with these. I'd recommend checking out the whole record, Now-Again did a really great repress (Grandfather Clock is a favorite of mine).

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)

Anyone needing inspiration, Madlib did a sweet group of minitracks flipping Billy Wooten which is how I found out about him

Yeahhh nice theme and samples! I might have to flip that 80s Roy Ayers. Also, if there are any deep house heads here, check out this track that samples Sweet Tears:

I'm currently working on a track with Joa Gymshoe for this battle.

In the meantime, here's a solo non-entry as I've bent the rules and used a full acapella :oops:

I sampled Billy Wooten. Love his vibes!

Special thanks to GC (WaxRamble) for putting the time and effort into hosting and putting together this battle. I hope it's a good turnout! :music:



One Love!
