Yeah, title explains it,

We don't have any rap up as of yet, will soon. Our rap isn't serious, just funny stuff.

But in the meantime enjoy the rough mixes and give us critiques.

Old school!

Beatbox Solo

I don't know much about beatboxing, so I can't give an in-depth critique, but I liked it.

OneMoreTime vs. AroundtheWorld

Interesting. Kind of reminded me of Rocky for some reason. I dig the changes and the way you guys blended what would seem to be some discordant sounds into something that works. I especially liked the "One More Time" vocal with whatever that effect is. My only complaint is the drum machine. The beat's all right, but I'm not crazy about the sounds you chose. I like drum sounds that are a bit more real and this just reminded me of jazzercise. Actually, a second complaint: I didn't like the "Around the World" vocal sample because I hate that song with every bone in my body. However, other than those two things I really liked the song.

DaFunk vs...

Interesting. I dig it. Was this made entirely from samples? It did get a bit repetitive, but I thought it had a pretty good groove. I can see people dancin' to it.

OK, you basically took Daft Punk songs and played one of them over the other.

OneMoreTime vs. AroundTheWorld doesn't work at all because the songs are in entirely different keys and you didn't transpose them. DaFunk vs. Daftendirekt works a little bit better but is just really boring because it's the same thing going on for a long time.

Add more variation and more of your own style to these songs. Sure, they're great songs on their own, and it's cool that you want to mix them together, but just try to be a little more original than you are now.

Ok cool deal, I know what your saying. What can I use to transpose them? Is there a program that will transpose for me?
