UPDATE: Tons of entries… wow. We’re now closed! Check tomorrow at Noon to see the picks, and to vote.
I was looking around and no one has been offering any outlet to producers lately on mainstream sites. Production is 70% of a song these days, so I figure let’s get some instrumental action on YHTN. Tomorrow we’ll do a New Years beat battle. Here’s the deal:
- Producers of the world submit two (2) of your beats in MP3 format to beats@youheardthatnew.com
- They have to be submitted by Midnight EST on December 29th, 2011 (Today).
- I will listen to all of them (for real I promise) and will pick 5 beats by 5 different producers for the YHTN readership to vote on tomorrow.
- The voting will last all weekend and the winner will be announced at Noon EST on Monday, January 2nd.
Prizes!
- The 1st place winner will get a $25 iTunes or Amazon Giftcard (Winner’s Pick) and automatically get his or her beat placed in the next competition.
- 2nd place will probably get clowned in the comments.
- 3rd place should just be happy to be here.
Small details: Do not have anyone rapping on them, I will not be putting your crew on today. Don’t send me a hulkshare link, send me the MP3. Feel free to Tag them up if you want, but unless the tags are somehow awesome this will probably make me hate the track. You can send less than 2 (1) but not more than 2 beats.
For all the readers voting will be explained in the competition post tomorrow. Now send me some ear candy… I got these Beats headphones for Christmas and I want to hear the magic. – Tom (@tmcleod3)
