8. goodwill- seems like your style has elevated recently. this is really dark. could use some silly percussion or a fun sound effect for contrast
7. masoChristo- I like the distortion and hissing noise. nice swing and nice vibes all around. the distortion is a little too much though
6. cascassette- nice chill straight ahead beat. good vibes and melody. could hear some more stuff added to it
5. slap af Niels- cool ducking. I might have sped this one up to 90-95 bpm or so
4. ill hack- this is really dope. the distorted kick is def too much
3. dead- this is chill straight ahead vibes. great mix. would be crazy with a lead solo or synth chords
2. leftboi- nice composition. I'd prob go a little narrower on the panning and the drums are kind of digital sounding
1. linkrust. this is so good. what's on your mix bus and drum bus?

alinea- this is cool and chill I just don't love the melody
joa- the beat has a nice bounce to it. the vox are maybe mixed a couple dB too loud
a force of one- this is chill maybe just a little too chill for me. mix is pretty quiet
dj blunt burn- chill island vibes. sounds like there's some distortion on the sample or somewhere
so damn fresh- the vocals work well with the sample. the overall vibe is a little too old school for me and the drums feel a little flat
wig master- the vibe could be happier and the mix is kinda dark too
nbtbl- super lo fi mix. super lo fi everything
rip tight- the mix and drums sound really thin and a very similar sample selection to other entries
moxatron- I think the kick needs to swing more. mix is ok but the drums don't hit that hard
big family- this is interesting I like the vibe of the melody. maybe too much with the chops?
ken kee- pretty good acapella selection. maybe a little too much panning on the sample
dewk- nice mix. everything works its just not really my vibe this week
Levi tretsch- heavy left field experimental vibe

[cascassette]

MasoChristo you are my SoundCloud follower #420, I guess you should earn a weed themed sample pack from me lol.
TWU congrats on the win and muchas gracias for the killer sample pack! Beats gonna come out of this for years to come!!

Joa TWU Levi 5TH - Dirrrty!!!
NATURELLE - That's what it is. Natural. Also going into the second section, very natural transition.
BLvNTBvRNv - Just love that sample, I had it too didn't know where to take it.
WigMaster - This is that shit. Background for a movie scene. Or just blasting out the car speakers. Doesn't even need a rap.
GoodWilL - Somehow those keys fit in the rhythm. Drums are a bit too thumpy/compressed for my taste, but it works with the track.
Slap Af Niels - Ok Niels, drop those LoFi sidechained AF chops. Love the variety of chops and programming. Vocals coming in n out, dope.
LeftBoi - This would have a skilled rapper on it, some unconventional rhythm which I like a lot. Second part makes it even better, chopped vocals work nice with it.
DeadBOX - Got that 90s NY vibe, should have old school Nas, Common on it. What a vibe. 2nd section also banging even though a bit more unorganised. Again, this would work so well with raps. Love the mix, drums sit real nicely.
RIPtight - Love that sample, I do think it could’ve been fitted to the rhythm a little better. That sparse take a step back section is nice.
MasoChristo - Ugh you really took those LPF’d bells to the max. With some selective HPF to some tracks I think you can improve the mix. Really dig the FX too, were you on SP?
bigfam - Same bells as Maso but flipped it completely different, also love that high guitar note coming in and adding to the vibe. You were on OP-1? How are you finding it? I’m still very curious about that machine but have never been like “OK let me just drop 1200 on that”. I am afraid I just love the idea of it, tiny sampler instrument, tape style recording, but digital.
LinkRust - Yessss that 20 sec intro is WORTH it because the beat is coming in with a fucking bang! I think your bass mix is dope. Sounds incredible on my headphones. Then with the scratches, driving beat.. Where did you find those vocals even? Ill find.

1. DEAD口
2. «NATURELLE»
3. LinkRust

That was tough, dope beats all around. And a good number of participants too!

[Masochristo]

@ Cascassette and WigMaster
Thanks alot for the feedback.
Yes I used the Sp for the FX
and @ WigMaster: Yes I agree. Distortion
is way to much. It's an 4-track recorder tape compression distortion!

Thank you for the feedback

[naturelleboombap]

1. Link Rust
2. DEAD
3. DJ BlvNTBvRNv - just a bit too much distortion

Alinea - nice slo jam. the pitched down samples are a bit too dark for me.
ｃａｓｃａｓｓｅｔｔｅ - loving the vibes. the snare sound could be different. but that`s just my taste.
dewk - that vocal sample is an awesome pick.
∆EN.KEEɸ - dope beat. this will be a pure banger if this is properly mixed and hits a bit harder.
SoDamnFresh - dope beat. would love to hear the classic "roundabout" panning in the hook.
