That Beatboxapella (one take)

Yeah I do the beatbox but I listened to VGM longer!
Been beatboxing like this near 20 years now but haven't really shared it outside of my friend circles. Here's to finally getting it out there.

Feel free to take this and sample the hell out of it!

Godlike stuff. Your level of control is something else. big_smile

I would have passed out if I attempted the first 4 measures yikes  excellent timing on your breaths.  Now you can chop up and resample all the hits smile

Thanks! It's basically second nature at this point.

no thought, only box. I feel weird about sampling myself, don't know why. But feel free to go for it!

Better than some of my patch design so far. I really want to see this resampled and used in a mega huge track. Whoa tempo change out of nowhere! Goddamn dude, I knew you could beatbox but this is some next level stuff. Your control of rhythmic subdivision is super impressive. Not to mention your variance of pitch and just the changes between the different 'drums' at that speed. Expert level.

This is fantastic!  So many different grooves and styles.  I especially liked how you worked in the tonal elements early on (00:20—00:44)―that vibrato was a classy touch.

badass!!!! i was in an a cappella group (think "pitch perfect" the movie) for the six years i was in college, so i've got some experience beatboxing and have been around lots of excellent beatboxers, and you're right up there with them. your technique and agility is really impressive, and your max tempo is seriously insane!! the way you do your snare is super cool, and different than the way i've usually seen it done, but it lends itself to your more agile, melodic style very well

i can definitely see myself sampling this in a later week, so look out haha, and you may have inspired me to try and demonstrate some of my own skills, if i can find a good quality way of recording my bassier style

Whoa!!!!

Tsh du dun du tsh!

To do Tsh!

This makes me so happy, I have no words. Thank you for a sublime experience.

dang your good!

This is impressive.
