Recently completed my first mixtape where I remixed a number of my favorite tracks from Chrono Trigger. Probably best categorized as Vaportrap/Lofi Hip Hop [ＣｈｒｏｎｏＷａｖｅ] ¦ [クロノ波 ]

I made a 15min remixtape of sorts where I took some DOOM acapellas and put them all together to my own beats, and then set all the remixed songs to various clips and videos. I realize remixes of DOOM are often underwhelming, but hopefully I did the man justice... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hI2w-gyuaA

Just finished this beat the other day -- it's super driven by this one brass loop, so I kept it short (2 minutes) so it doesn't get too repetitive; sync'd it up to some crazy ass dance footage from the classic Soul Train tv show and ba-boom, here we go folks: (Sorry for the horrible video quality, the footage is from the 70s so it's the best I could come across)

Really murky/underground beat Decided to go through my recent collection of strange/weird foreign movies and found some really creepy/dark clips to give the beat that extra push!

So I do a cypher contest every month; for this month, I took a beat I made a few months ago for a contest but never released the instrumental. Updated the mix a bit and decided to use it as the beat for my cypher contest: http://www.soundclick.com/player/single_player.cfm?songid=12046302&q=hi&newref=1 If you rap, check out my cyphers on YouTube; prize for this month is $50: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zPdvW14Q0LY

School finals + holidays + a bunch of other bullshit been keeping me away from music Trying to work my way back in with some creative exploration; so I found this weird little gumby sample and to get the juices flowing I decided to flip it into 4 different beats and try to merge them all into one hip-hop movement instrumental Sample: Flip: The beat changes about every 45 seconds into a whole new flip of the sample so jump around The flip is pretty strange in itself -- on top of that, I set it to some really trippy claymation video. People didn't really take to it....Oh well. My only regret is the bass is super deep so it's kinda only present if you've got a nice sub or a solid pair of headphones Let me know what you guys think of this -- I'm interested to hear (good or bad) cause I know this shit is odd, but I'm honestly pretty happy on how it came out

New beat: Kinda hard to describe; has an emotional feel and a real dynamic energy -- switches from slow to fast and goes through different vibes

New beat; super gritty / underground vibes: http://www.soundclick.com/player/single_player.cfm?songid=11952789&q=hi&newref=1 Really like the lo-fi style, hopefully you guys can get downs

Epic hip-hop beat; Clams Casino style Edited some epic nature footage to sync up with the beat and submitted it for TAGGs Producer contest: Something different

Another emotional one -- has that sorta ambient influence, leaning towards that melancholy/sadness vibe: http://www.soundclick.com/player/single_player.cfm?songid=11957742&q=hi&newref=1 Been switching between this style while also, more-so trying to focus on my gritty/underground vibes but every now and again, if I happen across the right sample, I'm gonna bang out a few of these for something different

Very melancholy, emotional beat: http://www.soundclick.com/player/single_player.cfm?songid=11930761&q=hi&newref=1 The night before I made this beat I was up late at night, listening to the new Mumford & Sons album just sorta reflecting on past relationships and analyzing my mistakes and possible regrets -- it wasn't like emo bullshit, but like legitimate learning from the past, but it did get me thinking about a lot of exes and the next day I stumbled across the sample I used for this beat and had to attack it (keeping the sample under wraps btw) The bass was really finicky in this and with all the different vocals going on the in the background I couldn't get something that really vibed well so the bass is really lite, but somehow I feel like that adds to the strain of the beat and goes along with the sorrow/desire tone of it Wow, this is a long description -- anyway, check it out, and make sure you check out the switch at 1:48 -- that's where the emotional aggression really comes out! Anyway, like I said, this one comes from a rather emotional spot for me so I'm really hoping you guys dig it -- but if not, it's still feels good to put this one out there

Something straightforward -- just a little thing to throw up and just start freestyling to: http://www.soundclick.com/player/single_player.cfm?songid=11928059&q=hi&newref=1 I do Cypher contest every month and this was going to be the beat for this month's cypher but I switched it out at the last minute for something with more variance The beat is split into two sections which are essentially the same -- like I said, it's just supposed to be something for a quick two-part freestyle type of a thing, not like a full-on track; so for it is, just like a freeverse type of beat, I actually really like how it came out

New beat: Sampled the 60's Batman TV Show: http://www.soundclick.com/player/single_player.cfm?songid=11918907&q=hi&newref=1 Really trying to dive in deep with these underground type beats -- love the sound and people seem to dig the style so that only makes me want to commit to it even further This is also the beat I'm using for my cypher for this month -- the beat is split into 2 sections so what I'm doing is asking people to find someone else to jump on the track with and submit like a "dual" entry http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgadtcaMmFY

Real underground hip-hop beat: http://www.soundclick.com/player/single_player.cfm?songid=11894164&q=hi&newref=1 Tried to give the drums a nice loose vibe and just give the track an overall gritty ass vibe -- one of my favorite beats I've made so hopefully you guys can dig

New beat -- all original [no samples]; latin sorta drums and just a weird like ethnic funk vibe: http://www.soundclick.com/player/single_player.cfm?songid=11877029&q=hi&newref=1 Not sure how well known RedHookNoodles is but he's a YouTube producer who's got like 40 million views on YouTube -- anyway, he made a second channel for people to submit beats to but he seems to not take sample beats so dug down into my compositional style and made something completely original; submitted it like a week ago and haven't heard anything yet but hopefully it gets accepted
