i just came across this contest, and the best remix by far is the one made by Midiots.
Great job!!! it really sounds up to date, as it should.

Some of these don’t even say “Dangerous Mcs” in the SONG !! That’s supposed to be the damn HOOK !! Did ya’ll even listen to these all the way through ??

I listened to the 25 remixes and many of them I seem pretty weak, but I think the “battle” will be between Cookin’ Soul and Midiots . I like more Midiots, so good job guys !!! the remix is crazyy !!

Bluebird Handwriting – A little messy, but I like the sound in it..
12e LEGO BLACK – West coast ride sounds..
S.T.T.R.E.S.S. – Banging and a masters work..
L-PRECISE – I like the form it takes in the verses.. Nice touch..
N-Jin – Nice little penguin tune.. Hypnotic..
Theory Hazit – A bit to easy loop, but I feel the buildup..
DJ Dezo – I dont feel that so much.. I need a stronger approach..
Roads-Art – Chinatown tunes was my first thought – Very KayGee like..
Donny Knots – Nice feel in this.. Simple but strong..
Vik Vega – It didnt catch me first, but there’s a summer madness over this one
Isbjerg – Wow ! The winner !! Would I write anything else on this one ?
Carl M. Cartagena – 90s sound.. Catchy..
DJ Snips – Nice drama !

Im really happy about going through to round two.. I feel I went a different route and gave the beat a more angry vibe to red & Meth..

But whassup with this site – Whassup with all the hating ?
So what your beat didnt make it – Do better !! Stop look on another man’s work and keep your complaining to yourself.. You too can stop being a B**** N**** today…

VohnBeatz – I like the abstract vibe in your beat..
Remot – Nice morning beat.. I would’ve chosen a more hard edge on this..
Ricardo Cabes – Hard drums and nice ride..
Midiots – Not many surprizes, but it’s sounds professional..
Elias – I like the energy in this one..
DJ Workerman – Nice for the night club..
THOR – Nice buildup of the joint..
Quincey Tones – Sounds like a european version, nice touch..
Cookin’ Soul – Smooth and silky..
Yuto Nagayama – Roughneck Riddim..
Owen Chaim – A bit low.. But superb breaks and perfect for driving..
Apple Juice Kid – That’s the way I like it.. Funny idea..

I’m liking that Owen Chaim remix the best, the guy kept it real simple, but it works good that way. Good work dude! It sounds a little dangerous too, which is the way this remix should be I think. Not with all these jazz samples (which, in my humble opinion, work great in other songs, just not for a song called DANGEROUS MCEES????).
And not to step on anyones toes here, but, in my mind, so many of these mixes seem to be just the original song with different music…….last time I checked remixes consisted of messing with the original elements a little more.
Anyways, everyone did an awesome job, and im sure the best man will win. Good luck everyone! Cheers.

Yeah I agree with Bawse for the most part, sounds like a lot of high school fruityloops 4 demo version lol. But I think out of all it’s gotta be cookin soul, came with it crazy!
