in this entry i tried to combine bigbeat elements with some ambient elements.i did not use any samples at all.
i just took some my self-created synth patches, some preset synth patches and mixed them with effects.

so the software used for composition:
drums-beatbox 2, included in magix music maker(the daw i use);
bass,pad, synths, fx,robotic voices-synapse audio dune;
piano-magix independence, acoustic piano patch;
vocal-Sonatina Symphonic Orchestra, chorus mixed patch;
effects-magix independence fx(which has a lot of effects) and built in effects of magix music maker.

and here is the link to audio:

Here is my experiment, ehm entry. I always trying to have some soft of story behind and this one is no exception. After short intro there are 4 parts represents different stage of "race". First three parts are more melodic while the last is aggressive almost chaotic part with some hard hitting cinematic toms. I used 140 bpm that is maximum used for bigbeat theme (thats what I found) and made kind of breakbeat drums patterns and in last part additional more punchy one.

Not sure how much I was able to fit the style but it was fun.

Hey gang,

Not sure if I'll participate or not this month. I was working on something but I'm finding it hard to finish it.

In high school I was a big fan of The Fat of the Land, so I wanted to make a track in that vein. But it feels so dark ... I'm not sure if I have the willpower to see it through.

We'll see what happens. Either way I'm excited to see what the theme will be next month.
