We have a slot this Friday at the Red Bull sessions at SWG3 warehouse this Friday alongside Toddla T, Caspa, Slam and Marco Bernardi. This is a great opportunity for the Den to bang out some beats, talk about where we've been and where we're going. This time we have BUG, KELAKOVSKI, JAISU AND S-TYPE with myself and KOSYNE chatting nonsense.
We are on at 5pm sharp and guess what, its FREE and there's FREE BOOZE!

Homework 59 - Martial Arts Week


Ok we're back with our next challenge; the Soundsci remixes are almost ready to drop; the blog and music player will surface today but before we get into that lets drop the next challenge from now so you can hit the lab and get busy!!.


Homework 59 - Martial Arts Week






This week the challenge is to flip music from martial arts films or films with martial arts actors..alright so obviously this is open to interpretation seeing as you've had someone like Jackie Chan in all sorts of randomness but yeah try to respect the theme and keep it authentic..and of course turn in a heater!!.



RULES

Create a new beat from a martial arts soundtrack/movie or a film; dig your own sample up and feel free to add your own elements BUT as always the sample has to form the main element of the beat, submit your beat to homework@louisden.com (this address has been verified and unless you get a bounce back email we will have received your blap..TAKE TIME TO MAKE SURE YOU'VE SENT THE RIGHT VERSION as we most likely wont check the entrants until its lab time)



DEADLINE


Beats have to be turned in by MONDAY 15th FEB 2010 18:00, thats right a MONDAY..we're doing this one a little different as we cant hit the lab on sunday..we'll do the usual live stream at http://...com/ldbblive so stay locked to the @louisden twitter for updates when we start.
