BEAT FICTION SAMPLES:
http://www.sendspace.com/file/3cqc77 (copy and paste this address since myspace won’t let you link outside and says it’s spam)

Rules: Each competitor is assigned a group and corresponding song for the first round. The top competitors will advance to the second round which has a corresponding sample pack in the zip on the sendspace link above. The same is true for the third and final rounds. You may add synths and such but the only samples you can use are from the songs in the zip file and dialogue from the movie…the idea is to see what you can do with the samples/songs from the movie. You can use whatever drums, etc. you want.
