BB80 - Alien Insects (ft. Jörg Zimmermann) (2024-07)
--------------------------------------------------------
Entry to Beat Battle BB80 "Zombies in Space" by Jörg Zimmermann (n.a.g.c.p.).
In an unexpected turn of events, a desperate attempt at finding extraterrestrial life has spiraled into a human catastrophe. An unknown virus from outer space has transformed the crew of the 'Pilgrim' into ravenous zombies. Now adrift in the vast expanse of space, the zombified crew aimlessly roam their spacecraft, driven by an otherworldly urge to feed on alien brains. 

Rules are simple: use at least 3 samples from the pack and create a song in whatever genre you deem fitting.

Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
From the depths of space, they came in the night,
Wings of metal, glowing bright,
Creeping shadows, a terrifying sight,
Insect armies ready to fight.

(Chorus)
Alien insects, taking over our skies,
Buzzing terror, hear the world's cries,
Alien insects, under neon lights,
Earth's last stand, in this cosmic fight.

(Verse 2)
Cities crumble under chitin claws,
Hives of terror, breaking all our laws,
Humans scatter, fighting for the cause,
Against these beings, with no pause.

(Chorus)
Alien insects, taking over our skies,
Buzzing terror, hear the world's cries,
Alien insects, under neon lights,
Earth's last stand, in this cosmic fight.

(Bridge)
We unite, humans strong and true,
For our planet, there's so much to do,
Against the swarm, we'll see this through,
For Earth, for us, for the sky so blue.

(Chorus)
Alien insects, taking over our skies,
Buzzing terror, hear the world's cries,
Alien insects, under neon lights,
Earth's last stand, in this cosmic fight.

(Outro)
In the end, we will reclaim our home,
No more fear, no more to roam,
Under stars, our courage shown,
Earth's victory, our hearts of stone.

Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
 A soft wind whispers through the air,
 A quiet hope that someone cares. 
The world is hurt, the scars are deep, 
But gentle hands can help it heal.
(Pre-Chorus) 
Oh, hold it close, don’t let it go,
 Peace is fragile, let it grow. 
Even in darkness, light can shine, 
A little love can change our time.
(Chorus)
 Fragile peace, like a shining glass, 
So easy to break, but it can last. 
Keep it safe, let the kindness lead, 
Together we’ll grow this fragile seed.
(Verse 2)
 The ground still echoes with the pain, 
Where wars were fought, and hate remains. 
But we can choose a better way, 
To build a brighter world today.
(Pre-Chorus) 
Oh, hold it close, don’t let it break,
 Every heart can give, can take.
 In simple acts, in words we say, 
Peace can find, a place to stay.
(Chorus) 
Fragile peace, like a shining glass, 
So easy to break, but it can last. 
Keep it safe, let the kindness lead, 
Together we’ll grow this fragile seed.
(Bridge)
 It’s not too far, it’s not too high, 
We’ll take it step by step, you and I. 
If we hold on and don’t let go, 
This fragile peace will start to grow.
(Chorus)
 Fragile peace, like a shining glass, 
So easy to break, but it can last. 
Keep it safe, let the kindness lead, 
Together we’ll grow this fragile seed.
(Outro) 
In every heart, the dream’s alive, 
Fragile peace will help us thrive. 
Hand in hand, let’s never part, 
This fragile peace lives in our hearts.

Lyrics:
I have been riding, chasing the past
But old year’s ended, it went so fast
A promise broken, a dream delayed
But this time I will, not let it fade

The clock ticks down and I feel the spark
A new year rising, I’ll leave my mark
Motorbike quiet, Dry with no steam
I have not any, more riding dreams

New resolutions and hopeful pines
Reaching higher and crossing the lines
I’m not alone and we’re all in this
For a better world, a cleaner kiss

Oh I will not waste another breath
Oh, on all the things that hold me back
Oh, It’s time to change, it’s time to fight
Oh, For the future, and riding dreams

Oh I will not waste another breath
Oh, on all the things that hold me back
Oh, It’s time to change, it’s time to fight
Oh, For the future, and riding dreams

With every step and with every breath
We’ll rise together and fight for Earth
The planet’s calling oh can’t you ear
Oh, it’s time to shed our doubt and fears

The ice is melting, trees are falling
But we’re still standing, and still calling
Oh, I will not waste another day
Ignoring the price, we have to pay

Oh I will not waste another breath
Oh, on all the things that hold me back
Oh, It’s time to change, it’s time to fight
Oh, For the future, and riding dreams

Oh I will not waste another breath
Oh, on all the things that hold me back
Oh, It’s time to change, it’s time to fight
Oh, For the future, and riding dreams

Oh I will not waste another breath
Oh, on all the things that hold me back
Oh, It’s time to change, it’s time to fight
Oh, For the future, and riding dreams

Oh I will not waste another breath
Oh, on all the things that hold me back
Oh, It’s time to change, it’s time to fight
Oh, For the future, and riding dreams

Riding Dreams

Beat Battle BB96 by Celaeno
Rules: on the thematic of the movie "Bullet Train", introduce randomness into your workflow and see where it takes you. You can do this in 2 ways:
-Make a song in any genre you like using 1 sample or MIDI file from the pack. You may change keys, and you may use your own sounds.
-Alternatively, you can go your own way. You don’t have to use my samples and MIDI if you don’t want to 😸 Pick a random chord progression and run with it. Flip coins, roll dice to determine song parameters. Randomize synth and FX patches!
----
DAW: Logic Pro X
Samples and SFX: 3rd party and Apple
Synths: u-he Diva, Native Instruments Kontakt8 (using Celaeno MIDI samples and own-made)

🎵 "What the FOX America"  🎵  
🎥 Chek official music video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqL0sNuvuFw 🎥
Song about Reversed Reality on TV. Entry for Beat Battle 99 by NiCKed.
Song tune (bass/drums) partially inspired by Tip Stevens / Knock Knock song.
Recordings: Guitar Fender Stratocaster SRV, Vocals: Mac microphone. Other instruments are virtual instruments from my DAW Logic Pro.
Lyrics:
Static storms in the sky of the screen,
 A whisper turns into a war machine. 
"Truth" crawls out with a plastic grin, 
While the anchor smiles as the lies begin.

Shadows wear suits and read from a scroll, 
Facts get buried in a memory hole.
 Inverted logic, a mirrored parade,
 They're selling the light, but it's wrapped in shade.

What the FOX is going on?
Day is night, and right feels wrong.
Echo chambers, sweet lullabies,
Tell me lies with televised eyes.

Cameras blink like synthetic eyes, 
Spinning webs from alibis. 
A lie repeated becomes your creed, 
Truth’s just a slogan no one reads.
Up is down, and fear is sold, 
Wrapped in flags and tales of old. 
The people chant, the puppets play, 
While emperors tweet the end of days.

What the FOX is going on?
Day is night, and right feels wrong.
Echo chambers, sweet lullabies,
Tell me lies with televised eyes.

What the FOX is going on?
Day is night, and right feels wrong.
Echo chambers, sweet lullabies,
Tell me lies with televised eyes.

<Solo>

What the FOX is going on?
Day is night, and right feels wrong.

Cracks appear in the painted sky,
 A question burns: who, what, when, which, why?
 The spell might break with a single thought, 
A revolution the mind forgot.
So break the feed, unplug the maze, 
Burn the script, and clear the haze. 
Wake the world with a single spark.
 Truth begins where they end the dark.

What the FOX is going on?
Day is night, and right feels wrong.
Echo chambers, sweet lullabies,
Tell me lies with televised eyes.

What the FOX is going on?
Day is night, and right feels wrong.
Now the tower shakes, and the sirens cry
But we see the truth behind the lie.

What The Fox America

Second entry for BB99 by NiCKed. 
The task was to create a song of ANY genre or tempo where at LEAST 50% of your track are things that run in reverse.
Check NiCKed's track here: https://soundcloud.com/tim_spencer/yaeveyaseya?utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing&si=c0b282221e304408a59fae5dfa8fa7ca

Reverse Moonwalk (ft. niCKed)

Entry to BB100 by TvMCC and Among the Stars.
Made only of samples (including virtual instruments and drums sounds using Q-sampler).

Rules : for BB100, we’re steering into something we hope you all will find to be  fun musical terrain:
-Counterpoint – melodies playing off each other like a conversation
-Pedal Tone – a note that holds while the rest of the music moves
-Ostinato – a repeating pattern that anchors your track

You don’t have to use all of them — just try leaning into at least one. Think of it as a creative push.

For this challenge, you’ll be working strictly with the sounds we provide. The pack’s pulled from my personal collection ~ it’s got a little bit of everything: some original material I’ve made, plus a bunch of versatile picks from my library that are easy to work with. We also brought back a few gems from past BBs, just to tie it all together.

Rules: Make a song in any genre, key and BPM you wish using at least 1 sample or MIDI file from pack "Toki" (inspired from DJ TOKiMONSTA's work). You may use your own sounds as well. Don’t be afraid to color outside the lines.

BB102 - Dive (ft. MSGsaltsweet) (2025-06)
------------------------------------------------------------------
Entry for Beat Battle "BB102 - Music like a movie scene" By MSGsaltsweet.

Dive

Inspired from the Smashing Pumpkins - Bullet with butterfly wings.

They didn’t scream
They didn’t fight
Just faded slow
Then left the light

You never asked
What beauty needs
You held too tight
And made it bleed

You're smashing butterflies
To feel strong, but you’re wrong
Time won’t stop, by breaking those little wings

You're smashing butterflies
To feel whole, but you fall
Truth won’t bend, and pain still sings

You talk of love
 But twist the thread 
You call it care 
But it hurts instead

You chase control
 And call it peace
 But beauty dies 
When you won't release

You're smashing butterflies
To feel strong, but you’re wrong
Time won’t stop, by breaking those little wings

You're smashing butterflies
To feel whole, but you fall
Truth won’t bend, and pain still sings

Smashing Butterflies

Entry to BB103 by Destructive Intent
Lyrics:
Whispers in wires,
hands made of doubt.
A glow in the silence—
we can’t black it out.

Don’t press the red button,
don’t let it fall.
The world’s on a thread,
that thread is us all.

Smoke dreams in motion,
ghosts in the code—
we vanish so easy
on this overloaded road.

Don't press the red button (ft. Destructive Intent)

Entry for BB104 Psychadelic version of Smashing Butterflies by HC Urblitz.
Rules: his time the theme is UK 60s Psychedelic Conquering.
Or with other words: The famous british invasion.
Create a track in the 60s-Style using typical bass, guitar and keysounds,
adding modern hard-bass-shots and fx-hits and combine rockdrums and funkbreaks.
What I did: took my track "Smashing Butterflies" and made it sound more "UK psychedelic style" by adding Indian Sitar, Indian drums, Fuzz and Wah Wah, and an endless guitar solo.

Smashing Butterflies Psycho

Entry for BB105 by NiCKed - Colour Space.
A dark-red rap track drifting through silence — a blood-soaked track for power, control, and the quiet violence of politics.

Lyrics:
Yo, they buzz in the dark like secrets at night,
Suckin’ on blood, never askin’ for rights.
Tiny thieves in the air with a silent sting,
Just like suits in the halls, doin’ the same thing.
They leave a red dot, a pool of blood too —
Look close and you'll see what the rich men do.

Red, red, everywhere red,
Pool of blood by the foot of my bed.
Red like lies that the big boss said,
Buzz in the dark, leave the people misled.
Red in the streets, red on the news,
Bloodsuckers win while the rest of us lose.

They hide in the night, take more than they should,
Fillin’ their cups from a pool of our blood.
Red drips down from the cracks in the flag,
While they sip slow from the system they drag.
Talk real smooth, but they sting like dread,
Truth gets drained 'til the whole world’s red.

Red, red, everywhere red,
Pool of blood by the foot of my bed.
Red like lies that the big boss said,
Buzz in the dark, leave the people misled.
Red in the streets, red on the news,
Bloodsuckers win while the rest of us lose.

Red sky fading, the silence spreads,
No cure left for the words they bled.
I light one match, let the truth be said —
Can’t heal the bite when the whole world’s red.
So swat what’s fake, let the real ones live,
We’re done with the taking — got nothing left to give.

Red Pool Mosquito (ft. NiCKed)

Sailing into Ruby Sunrise

Entry to Beat Battle 105 by guska, called "In D-The Terry Riley experience". 
Check Guska Bandcamp page: https://guska.bandcamp.com/
Battle Rules: guska prepared some Sounds and midi files we could combine with each other. The inspiration was from Terry Rileys composition "In C" from the sixties. He was working with compositional modules, the piece was played by different musicians in varying settings, the best thing is: every performance sounded rather different.
In my composition, I've used several samples from Guska (bass, sax, baritone guitar & sax, Rhodes) and added a few samples from Logic library plus my own recordings (vocals & lyrics, elec guitar).

(D)
Sea. Takes the light, clear and bright, shines so blue.
Sand. Warm and soft, shaped by waves, old and new.
Shells. Whisper soft, worn and smooth, on the loam.
Waves. Dance and roll, calling deep, through the foam.

(G)
Sky. Wide and clear, spreads its arms, endless blue.
Sun. Paints the gold, warms the air, bright and true.

(D)
Clouds. Drift and change, soft and slow, shades of white.
Birds. Sing and soar, lines in air, pure delight.

(A)
Wind. Moves the palms, hums a tune, wild and free.
(G)
Sounds. Carry far, soft and low, mystery.
(D)
Breeze. Kisses skin, whispers tales, through the night.
(A)
Song. Calls the soul, bends the light, pure and bright.

(D)
Sea. Takes the light, clear and bright, shines so blue.
Sand. Warm and soft, shaped by waves, old and new.

Lyrics:
Punk is not dead

Mohawk hair cut
And leather jacket
Denim and chains
And Doc Martens

[Punk is not dead
Rock is not dead] x 2

Walk in the streets
And break the windows
Drinking some beers
And fight with bums
Playing guitar
Loud in a bar
Yelling your rage
And set the fire

[Punk is not dead
Rock is not dead] x 3

Hanging around
With all your dogs
Sleep in a park
And wash in a pool
But must always keep
Rock’n roll attitude
Punk is not dead
Rock Music never dies

[Punk is not dead
Rock is not dead] x 2
