This one is about the walls we build around our hearts to keep people from hurting us and the isolation that causes people.
This week's beat battle theme is loneliness. I composed this piece in Propellerhead Reason using an M-audio Oxygen 8 Midi Controller. It's in E flat Minor.
I much prefer Battles where all the producers are using a common sample. This keeps people from using old beats they've had laying around and just adding new titles to them to fit a theme, and it also provides a common thing from which to judge the participating producer's music. However, I also enjoy writing new music. Although I think of it more as a songwriting contest than a beat battle on weeks like these, I'm still happy with the result.
Thanks for listening! I hope you enjoyed the beat. Big shoutout to @chiefmappster @jphenderson @enginewitty @vandigital and @derekmiller for putting on this Beat Battle League for us all, and thanks to all the rad producers participating!
