Lyrics:
Under the sea
In this ocean so fragile
The whales cry in the blue deep

Under the sea
The dolphins dance in a mesmerizing spree

Under the sea
Where the jellyfish gleam
The sea-horse twirl in the flow

Under the sea
An octopus hides into the coral’s seams

Under the sea
As turtles glide with ease
And the manta rays soar free

Under the sea
With sharks that patrol, mysterious and grand

Under the sea
Jewel of nature where
Seagulls dive and seashells sing

Under the sea
In an underwater symphony of life

Under the sea
Outside mankind’s madness
It’s a magic wonderland

Under the sea
We have to protect all that beauty and wildlife

Under The Sea (ft. Nu Funk Lab)

BB74 - Aussi Libre (ft. ADZEA and GG) (2024-04)
--------------------------------------------------------
Entry to Beat Battle BB74 "As Free as you think you are" by ADZEA

With a title like "As free as you think you are," you don’t need any more instructions. Use what you like, transform as you wish all this is free of right. There are several tracks with strange words "C-DO D-RE E-MI F-FA G-SOL A-LA B-SI". I think there is no need for explanation.

Aussi Libre (ft. ADZEA and GG)

This song calls for unity and compassion, urging listeners to reject hate and division. It highlights the importance of standing together, breaking the chains of prejudice, and envisioning a world where love and equality triumph.

Hate In Your Eyes (ft. Hemanifezt)

BB82 - Seeds of Tyranny (ft. Sick-E) (2024-08)
--------------------------------------------------------
Entry to Beat Battle BB82 "If you can't beat them" by Sick-E.

Sick-E challenged us about the weird new world of AI-supported or generated music now, and whether we find this amazing, terrifying or laughable, we all know that another big shift is coming, comparable to the invention of the synthesizer. 
He went to AI websites (Udio), generated a bunch of weird "songs" and then take them out a while later and took for sample material. 
So the challenge was to create something from it, whatever we felt making out of those samples. 
---
As I had previously created a track for the AI experience, I've mixed it with Sick-E samples. In conclusion all samples of this track were made with UDIO except some drums and bass AI generated with Logic Pro.

Seeds Of Tyranny

BB83 - Debussy Rêverie 83 (ft. Talotres) (2024-08)
--------------------------------------------------------
Entry to Beat Battle BB83 "Angel Number 83" by Talotres.
----
Talotres looked towards numerology for inspiration and came across some interesting "facts" about the number 83. 
His eldest Talo-ette read out passages of this, and so he dutifully recorded the audio for us to work with as we see fit and to create the music for.
The Rules consisted of:
Produce a track over 2 minutes in any genre, at any tempo. Use as much or as little of the audio as you wish but please try and make this the dominant vocal.
Try to give the song a life affirming, positive message.
To help you start, this was recorded at a cadence of 95BPM.  She repeated several passages later on, so you will need to pick and choose what you want to use.
Let see what you make of this!
