    This weekend for the first time ever at the Kings of Concrete Festival CmX and Kounter Kulture Present: The Irish Undaground Battle of the Beats.

    Anyone can enter but HipHop style beats are essential as MCs cast votes for the winning beat.

    Each Beat Maker who wishes to participate will submit one beat - the one they feel is their best beat for Irish Hip Hop - and send it to irishundaground@gmail.com as an MP3 at minimum 192kbps (ideally 320kbps)

    When do they need to be sent in by, i know KOC starts on Saturday, so do you need them by Thursday, Friday?

    I'm actually gonna be photographing it, so might as well send one in for the laugh.

    I was thinking about it, but there's no details, official site or anything. I mean if an MC wants to rap over the top they could just mean a short loop - or they want a full song? - who knows.

    Well, the OP probably does, but hasn't replied to the thread yet - he says 'submit one beat' ;) - the opportunity for sarcasm there is immense. ;)

    It does kind of make you want to send in a singular snare or something alright.

    Well, i sent them in a full track and just got an email back from them there to say thanks. As such, i think they meant full song?

    *grins* It should be pretty funny if it's played over the PA at any stage....the sample i used echoing around the Dublin Civic offices would be pretty funny.
