Yep, you heard correctly. A beat box contest. Make a beat, add lyrics, a voice-made tune and bass. Whatevah. Then submit. As for the judging, I am so far just throwing the idea out there. So all you beat boxing maniacs, help me make this BIG!!

If you are interested in judging, please state so. Participating? Likewise. As for me, I still haven't determined whether I should participate or not. After all, judging sounds fun. Then again, if I participate, I will get some attention to my puny audio page! With one submission!! Yay!

So, yeah. Let the members of the NG AF decide the fate of this idea and thread.

...and no experience?

And if this is just going to be about some noob account, and not beat boxing, then goodbye. Maybe I will try this again in a few months when I have spread word and gotten people excited.

Contest destroyed because of an alt?

Ask him for some genuine evidence he's a genuine person, or just ignore him.

omfg violence

Anywho, I would totally do this, but it would simply turn into me sampling my voice into hi hats, kicks, snares, etc and then using it in FL. It'd be pretty gay, from my standpoint.

Hey, that is perfectly fine. As long as it is your voice. Which presents a problem. How are we supposed to know if it really is your voice and not some famous beatboxer? And I guess that way it would be more of a "composition skills" type thing rather than beat boxing, but who cares?

Now get to it! Make a song and submit it! Fine I will lead by example...

You know what? I would make one right this second, but there would be some annoying Kingdom Hearts music in the background. That's all my brother ever plays.

Splicing samples is aloud, I guess, until someone says not.

Ok I made this in like 30 mins. How hard is that? Definitely not my best, but it will work for an example. Yes, the timing is off a little, and yes the last whistle note is off, but oh well. And yes the lyrics make no sense.

Now get off your lazy butts and make a friggen song!

Example

Now, now... What kiund of attitude is that supposed to be? Here are a couple I have already done to sprout some interest:

Mouse on the Curb

Blood Red Eyes

Depending on the outcome of things, I can either be a participant or a standing judge. It's all up to your guys. I may make another one just for this but football practice is about 85% of my days so...
