holy shit 8O this is a hard fucking choice. these are all cool as hell. there are some talented producers prowling around in here. this is also a testament to the power of Live itself! some crazy sounds came out of that one sample...

4 and 6 have a lot of cool shit going on sonically and rhythmically, but i'm going for 5 for its sheer evilness. the mix is a bit raw, but it sounds like something i would drive around to late at night, nodding my head real slow, smokin' a fatty....

very cool stuff everyone. My vote is for #8. So dark and broody, with a cycle like a washing machine..!
I never heard the sample but you guys all did a ton of different stuff with it! Kudos!

thanks! i'll throw a little write up with screen shots together here in the next couple of days.
i would throw up the .als, but i am a resample/consolidate fan, and i often record the output of instruments to audio, esp. to save resources... and i made that little ole file amount to ~950mb of stuff :lol: i don't have much luck uploading large files, it has taken me days to upload ~1g files in the past. i ain't goin thru the hassle, but i might could post the device(s)/racks...
besides, gotta keep some tricks to myself :lol: :wink:

btw, fwiw, i liked listening to all, but if i would have not been biased by my own entry, and actually voted, it would have been hard. good shit guys!!!

in fact, i was so captivated by the feel of your beat that i've loaded it as a waveform to see if there's any offsets
