For SoDamnFresh X JoaGymshoe w/ MzFk & Nindyo.. where's the midi part(s)?

man, talked with SDF about a bassline in the early stages just coz I thought it would be cool to have a funky bass.
got the one stem track and never thought again if it had the required 'sprinkles'.
was focussed with making the vocal parts and getting everybody's stuff on/in.

as far as other rules..
I thought the track was supposed to be happy and dancy. I suppose that's sorta subjective...

check the vibe voted for both team Balstyrico and my team's beats..

and then the rule where it says, all participants need to vote in order to win..

all in all kinda messy.

aight..
on this week's winners..
since both popular vote Balsty, Alinea and FE_Joose and my team SDF, MzFk and Nindyo didn't comply with the rules..
( at least I think so..I'll check with SDF )
and also Larry Bird didn't vote on the Goodwill collab.
Alinea and MzFk didn't use midi either I just received word
edited Granny's post above
i feel it is the right result coz it adhers to the dancy and happy vibe aswell..
guys plz tell me you used some 'midi' on top of this?

so I've had some thoughts for next year..
to possibly not have the: everybody has to vote rule.
and maybe 1 collab per person.. thinking what the consequences of that would be?.. people would look for other people quicker..
as opposed to all collabing with MzFk..jokes
possibly some help from moderators in 'matchmaking' ?
a fixed ruleset which lends itself to collabing.
okay.. just thoughts.. input is welcome.

yes, agreed check the vibe.. pity we didn't have more contenders..
what a messy week..
on to the next one!

pz and love all!

I think in the monthly battles before, we at one point had a rule stating one vote per 'team' or collaboration basically. I do think the rule requiring vote to count on 'solo' battles does encourage people to check back in and participate - so I think that should still stand in my opinion. I think this gets more messy when everyone is a collab though, so on future collab battles a rule saying at least one person from the group must vote will make that a bit more simple.

It sounds like a conclusion was reached for this battle, so we don't need any recounts or lawsuits here

Thanks Joa for helping settle this and congrats to Alinea, FE_Joose, and Balstyrico

Yo thanks you all for the wonderful feels; and thanks guys for clearing the mess; and shout out for my teammate Basltyrico for that soulful beat and FE_Joose for kicking it right, also many thanks to my man Mzfk for introducing me to this wonderful community !

No worry about the late vote FEJoose, for me just playing is already winning ! Really look forward to do collab again, I know that"s life but too bad so many didn't make it this week, but that wil happen another time !

To make collaboration time easier, maybe set a rule asking to share a central element of the beat; for example, you must use another person's drum track and use it as it is for at least X number of bars (so it's not too much of a constraint and you can make a switch, a break or whatever ) So that way it can be more appealing at first . Just a tought.

And thanks Joa for pushing us to do collabz all the past weeks !

Peace

yes, collabs rock bro!..

taking all you guys' ideas into consideration and will apply some for coming years
