Neel Modi - Ace Beats banner

I’m inviting rap artists to collaborate on a new project. I created these beats for my progressive electro-pop EP, Ace Symmetry. I challenged myself to only use odd time signatures, so every beat is 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, or 13 beats to a bar.

If you’re up to the task, I’d love to hear your take on creating flows for these beats with your own lyrics and performance.

Sample the beats below, and feel free to download the 16-bit wav files to develop your own song structures with the loops. Contact me with any questions or to send me your draft tracks. I can also provide individual tracks if you like (i.e. separate bass, drums, keys, etc).

Note, this is a “for-fun” project. I don’t expect to go commercial with these songs, although I am open to it if we really feel like it.

Thanks and I look forward to hearing your top lines!
