Build the coolest Beat and win prizes worth over €1,800!

Together with the drum recording legend Moses Schneider, elysia has recorded a giant pack of acoustic Stems, Loops and Beats and and now invites you to participate in a contest together with Beat Magazine. In addition to xpressor|neo qube, there are several editions of the Human Beat Pack Volume 1 and elysia plug-ins to win.

The rules in short: Build a particularly creative or emotional loop or song verse with the given samples, deliver the result and maybe you’ll be one of the winners? Fnd the exact (and really simple) rules below.

How does the contest work? The rules are very simple and contain only two points:
– Participating is easy: Grab the elysia samples from the Human Beat Pack at HERE and build a particularly creative or emotional loop or a song verse, each at least eight bars long, so that there‘s something to listen to. Modifying the existing drum loops is mandatory!
– Submit a link to your beat by March 1, 2024 to contest@beat.de, Subject: elysia. You can use any hoster, such as SoundCloud, YouTube, your social media accounts or attach an MP3 file (max. 10 MB). Most important is, that the jury is able to find your beat.

Then keep your fingers crossed!
The jury, consisting of elysia, Moses Schneider and Beat Magazine, will select the winners by March 10 and inform them directly and on Beat‘s social media accounts. With a bit of luck, you‘ll be one of the six winners.

Places 4 to 6: elysia museq, alpha compressor and mpressor
The elysia plug-ins have long been more than just an insider tip, as they impress with their faithful reproduction of the hardware, both in terms of sound and operation. Whether for surgical correction or merciless „squeezing“ of drums – once you‘ve tried them, you won‘t want to do without them. Places 4-6 go to one of the three emulations: museq, alpha compressor or mpressor.
