DJ 1 - really creative with the sampling and you found a great drum pattern that rode well, great job!
DJ 2 - didn't really seem to fit the prompt of a sapp segment in terms of tempo/structure imo, and was dominated by another song for the most part. great eq work tho, those 808s were bangin
I...
DJ 1 - a pretty classic sapp segment in terms of tempo and drum pattern which has nice bounce, however the vocals were so buried it didn't have much of the character of the original song left
DJ 2 - more musical and had fleshed out ideas (and i could hear the vocals) - the drums could've been...
Pretty much echo what kman said - DJ 1 sounded more like what I'd expect from a sapp segment but with clashing/out of key elements. DJ 2 had a strange structure for a sapp segment but was more cohesive sonically. Tough one but I guess I have to vote for DJ 2
DJ 1 - solid overall, would've liked some harder-hitting drops but was definitely the cleaner of the two
DJ 2 - generally muddy and as kman said that dhol was rather shrill. that being said the buildup was cool pre-drop
I vote DJ 1
My vote goes DJ 1 - high end was a bit sharp but otherwise solid
DJ 2 - something felt off with the patterns and master, tho i did like the crew love sample
pretty tough, but I gotta go DJ 2 - just a vibe from front to back, the last section was creative and smoooth with that sick daniel caesar cut
DJ 1 - great intro and buildup, but drop was a little much/cluttered
I vote DJ 2 - creative use of moonlight and weaved together well
DJ 1 - good job, only thing would be that chandelier was a bit too pitched up for my taste
I vote DJ 1 - that shit was nuts haha, love the creativity! would've liked maybe some more vocal presence and some elements didn't always fit perfectly but overall the "kitchen sink" approach paid off imo
DJ 2 was solid, not much to complain about, but I think 1 gets it based on all the ideas...
I vote DJ 1 and 4
DJ 1: love the lofi vibes - piano could have been balanced better w/ the vocals
DJ 2: some clashing elements weighed it down
DJ 3: the first drop was a bit too chaotic for me, the second half was nice tho, would have liked more of a boom-bap kick there
DJ 4: simple, clean...
