Happy Holidays Music Producers!  Hopefully you have the day off to do some gift wrapping and beat making, but we at P5Audio can’t rest until we announce the winners of this amazing Beat Competition!  This was the hardest contest to judge this year. Props to all you producers and your amazing work! It is our honor to be able to listen to these great beats. And now, let’s get to the winners…

First, a quick recap of the rules:

Final Beat Contest of 2012:  This beat competition was free to enter.  P5Audio provided a zip file with free music loops from our brand new Construction Kit “Dubstep Monster 2, Bills and Bankrolls, Dubstep Remix, and Rock da Trap.   Music producers had to use only the sounds in the zip file provided to create a instrumental beat in any popular urban style they chose.  Producers could alter the sounds in any way they wished, BUT could ONLY use the free sounds provided!

AND NOW TIME TO ANNOUNCE THE WINNING PRODUCERS!!!!…..

CHAMPION Winning Producer is:

Producer: B Transformed (3 Time Winner!)

Track name: Beginning of the End

Why we chose this track:

Brad once again has demonstrated that he is a sample chopping master. This amazing track seamlessly infuses all of the sound elements provided in the free sounds pack, and the result is an epic and dynamic piece of music, ready for the charts.  The detail of this track is stellar, and the movement change ups keep the entire work constantly interesting. Combine all that with a brilliant mix, and you have a champion! Congratulations Brad!

Listen to the winning track here:

 

The Grand Prize:

  • $100 in FREE P5Audio sounds
  • A blog post about their life / work /music etc…

And the runners up are:

Runner Up #1 : Da Fingaz

Track name: Change is Coming

Award: Most original beat.  Da Fingaz, again has brought a new sound like no one else can.  The brass melody in this track was straight up sick!  With a little more dynamic build ups, and drum change ups, this track could very well have taken the cake.  Keep it up Da Fingaz!

Listen to Da Fingaz’ track:

Runner Up #2: G Lee

Track name: The End

Award: We’ve come to expect stellar production from G LEE, and once again he does not disappoint. Brilliantly infusing all of the elements into one head knocking banger, from the change ups, to the drum programming, to the guitar chopping, every sample is perfectly placed.  Huge props on this one!

Listen to G Lee’s track:

Runner Up #3: DJ Chris Boice

Track Name: Two-Day Dub

Award: Nastiest Dubstep synth sound!  Great dance vibe on this track.  Work on those transitions, get them drums hitting harder, and we may be looking at contending champion sometime soon!

Listen to DJ Chris Boice’s track:

Each runner gets to choose a free copy of there choice from one of the following proudcts:

Merry Christmas!! Thanks G Lee Beatz for the kind words. I’m glad you liked it. I always enjoy listening to your tracks. They are always amazing. Thanks to P5Audio for putting these competitions on and giving the opportunities to expand my creativity and production level in a real world deadline situation. Thank you for the very very amazing comments on my track. That really means a lot to me and I greatly appreciate it. Merry Christmas!!

@ B Transformed & G Lee Beatz – Great job again fellas. Absolutely loved both of your tracks! Always excited to hear what you guys crank out. Thank you again for being a part of the P5audio community. Laura will be hitting you up with your prizes either today or tomorrow. Have a great Holiday and Merry Christmas fellas!

Merry Christmas!!!! B Transformed, Dope entry cuz. Those guitars really bring the energy to the track. Those dubstep chops were definitely on point too. That drum breakdown is something serious too. My wife said she likes it a lot. Sounds like a beat for Step Up. LOL…

G Lee, dope as usual. I like the lack of the snare in some parts. The breakdowns are dope too. Great track! Thanks for the congrats! DJ

Chris Boice, nice synth work. Those synth sounds cut through the mix well. Actually sounds like music for a high energy video game.

I wouldn’t be surprised to hear all of these tracks on some major projects soon. Keep grinding and keep creating. Shout out to P5audio for hosting another dope competition. Maybe you guys can try to get some guest judges such as DJs, radio personalities, A&Rs, or even artists to judge some in 2013 (my wife and I still revisit the Cypher Lounge episode when we called in from Hawaii a few years ago. LOL).

Happy Holidays to you all!….
