A Beatchallenge gone Remix. I participated in the Beat Challenge 51 ova at wav.ryders (https://discord.gg/hUpjjFnJyU) and came up with this Remix.

This is another classic sample challenge from the Discord – only using samples from the provided pack. It's all about creativity and pushing limits with what you've got. Lately, I've been refining my workflow for sample-based beats. I used to rely on Ableton's Sampler to chop samples, but now I work directly with audio files for precise chops, time-warping, and pitch adjustments. This hands-on approach makes my process smoother, faster, and gives me more control. Each beat is a new experiment and a step forward in mastering my sound.

Something I still struggle with is that it takes too long to make the beat. I often listen to the whole work-in-progress too many times and lose momentum. On the other hand, things need time to take shape. I think I need to find a middle ground to make my beatmaking even more efficient and keep the creative energy flowing.

Weekly beat: Film Score 
This week’s challenge was all about capturing a scene that doesn’t exist yet. I went with an '80s sci-fi vibe, layering synths for that futuristic feel while weaving in some strings for depth and tension. Didn’t have time to fully flesh it out, so it’s still a work in progress.
