I’ll update the first post and share the tracks later

lusd is on Soundcloud

Thanks, I’ve added it now. Didn’t see it when I was scrolling through cos they used the BB link which doesn’t display the player.

Can someone tell me if they hear some weird crackling noises on my track?
It sounds ok to me on my monitors and through headphone, but on my samsung s3 tablet it makes crackling sounds like crazy…guess it’s because it’s quite bass heavy, but most other stuff sounds quite alright so i’m a bit worried the mix is terrible?

No issues on my end. I am using headphones however.

Love the track!

Who are you? What’s your non-joke artist name? This is dope.

Love the track!

Thank you, not sure why it happens on my tablet though, it’s supposed to have good speaker system made by AKG, but it doesn’t even seem to help turning the volume down, it still crackles at low volumes. I also noticed some of the same crackles on Fosterr Gump’s track too, so i guess it’s just that my tablet is pretty far from being a high end sound system. :stuck_out_tongue:

Edit: i now also noticed that the track has much less crackles when i play from the browser and not the soundcloud app for some reason and for extra convenience soundloud won’t let me access the in-browser version of soundcloud, it automatically sends me to the shitty app.

Love this. Stepped it up this year.

PS: How does “publc voting work”?

Open vote : anyone - also non-contestants can vote for their favourite track. 1 vote / person

i did not participate. I get to vote for 1 track?

(Where public equals the public, in public, republic…)

No top 3 system this year?

Anyone can vote their favourite track. Can’t offer prices for top 3, and I’m not a lottery-guy, so only 1 winner. :slight_smile:

That’s cool.

As an aside, I’m going to run a meta, parallel lottery cuz this ain’t beat battle it’s MBC, so introducing a new side contest buried deep in the comments!

In addition to picking the best track (the real contest), I am asking pariticpants to vote for the best_ review. _(the meta contest)

Out of the top ~8 reviews, one reviewer will be randomly selected win a free copy of:

That’s cool!!

Hi guys,

A quick vote from me, I’m out travelling and don’t want to forget.

  1. Stailer - Hymn to nature

Lovely arrangement and I am a sucker for these leads.

  1. RedPanda13 — ManBearPig Is Real, Im Cereal!

This song fills up the audio spectrum and with a dose of crazy who can resist?

  1. sunnk — heat death

When all elctronics melt down this tune will still be playing.

Have a great 2019 and keep on rocking!

Didn’t join this year, although I wanted to. Just got a little baby daughter, so - priorities.

But really looking forward to giving the entries a good listen!!

It’s the end of Sunday, but I was wondering if we extend it

It’s the end of Sunday, but I was wondering if we extend it

Ah okay. If it’s Sunday than I have more than enough time.

For some reason I thought it was tonight. I’ve listened to some of the submission but have not had time to listen to all.

But Sunday should be fine!

my personal opinions on the tracks entered :

No 1 ( winner / gold ) :

Global Warming - The Bellows

nice lead sound, strange ( tape saturation maybe )

nice hihats and percussion subtlety, panning, human-ness

nice combo of human instruments with modern sounds

nice unexpected changes

nice melodies

love the feel of the flute instrument - medieval court style

everything carved into its own space.

great arrangement, great songwriting

No 2 ( runner up / silver ) :

Local Cooler - Raegae system :

nice mix of human instrumentation with breaks and stuff

great live / human jams style sound

nice dub style effects

Only negative thing id say about it is that the mixdown/mastering sounded a bit washed out on my headphones.

maybe it was mixed down / mastered / EQ’d / whatever on very trebley earphones?

No 3 ( Bronze ) :

Dawn of a new beginning - Komu :

nice textures

nice layering of samples and synths

nice ambience

nice use of negative space / simplicity

perfect mix and master, everything crisp and clear.

the right level at 50% volume on my laptop using headphones

No 4 ( notable for some things ) :

Climate skeptic in the antartic - Maya Azem

nice movement in the chords towards the end,

some nice skippiness / groove / humanness in the rythms

sounded a little like it was clipping a little bit with all the effects at the beginning

yeah, those are my personal views on the Mutant Breaks #11 entries

No 3 ( Bronze ) :

Dawn of a new beginning - Komu :

nice textures
nice layering of samples and synths
