Announcing buildUP's Sample Flip Challenge: Halloween Edition

 

buildUP is Building Beats’ virtual community for women and non-binary music producers to learn and grow by sharing recent work and feedback in a supportive environment.

 
 
 
 

In preparation for next month’s buildUP on October 12th, we are launching our next Sample Flip Challenge for any women/ non-binary music producers to participate in! But this time we have a different submission process! All you have to do is sample the Dawn of the Dead Soundtrack, which can be found here.

All entries submitted and showcased during our October 12th buildUP event will be included in the next buildUP fliptape! (click here to check out our first one).


Here are the guidelines:

  • Flip the sample using any portion of the soundtrack in any way you like - flip it, chop it, dice it, slice it, pitch it, reverse it…the choice is yours.

  • Track must be 1-2 minutes long.

  • Post to Instagram with #buildUPflip

  • Post to Soundcloud with #buildUPflip

  • To qualify for inclusion on our buildUP beat tape, your track must be completed & emailed to buildUP@buildingbeats.org by October 12th @ 5pm EST. In addition, you must RSVP to and attend the October 12th buildUP workshop at 7pm EST, where we’ll be showcasing our flips and celebrating our creative genius :)

  • When sending your submissions, send as a .wav file and indicate whether your track is mastered or unmastered (Hint: if you created your track in Soundtrap, it is automatically mastered upon export, but in a DAW such as Ableton or Logic Pro, it is not). We are accepting both mastered and unmastered versions.

 
 

All entries submissions can be emailed to: buildUP@buildingbeats.org.
