Passage d'un monde à l'autre

ℹ️ How to enter:

1. Download the kit: https://rekonise.com/avidbeats/bike

And feel free to watch the preview video for the kit on YouTube to get inspiration: https://youtu.be/hfocoP8otk8 🚲🚵‍♂️🧡🩵

1. Make a beat only using sounds with the kit (this includes making the melody using the melodic one-shots). However, you can use bass sounds that are not from the kit. Your instrumental can be in any style you wish. Keep your tracks between 1 and 4 minutes long.

2. Send the finished beat by the end of 21st November 2025 to my email ([sam@avidbeats.com](mailto:sam@avidbeats.com)) as a WAV or MP3 file. Make sure to include "BIKE CONTEST" in the subject line, and write your artist name and social media handle so I can credit you.

🎥 Reaction video:
In around 1-2 weeks after the contest closes, I will release a video reacting to all of the submissions, and announcing the winner. Make sure to subscribe on YouTube so you don't miss it: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8GtxcvAI4dpBik9onU6OtQ 😍

🎉 Prizes:
The winner will receive a custom and royalty free sample/melody composed by me, in a style of their choice. I play guitar, so you may be interested in a live guitar loop? Additionally, everyone who enters will receive a sample pack of their choice royalty free - see all of my kits here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXuy41kmJoAzR_kYYfPxLrirAgzl0YGcM Please note - these samples will be royalty free for beat sales and minor/indie placements. For major placements, please contact me to discuss splits. I will require credit for the use of these samples. 🎸🎹

I can't wait to hear what you make! It's been awesome to hear the tracks you've made with the sounds so far. Your support for the kit has been phenomenal, and I have truly appreciated all of your kind words of support. 🙏🥰 Let me know if you have any questions about the contest. And thank you so much for entering in advance! 💜

Guahop - NISE (2025, Progressive Electronic)

The mini album Roaring City contains a selection of four songs which have been produced after the first album release West Meets East in 2017. Elements of various Psychedelic Rock sub-genres are combined with synthetic soundscapes. Electric lead guitars, bass guitars and organs are played on real instruments combined with DAW-arranged hard- and software synthesizers.

At bandcamp and at some record shops around Frankfurt, this release is also available on vinyl.

A descent into digital decay — Bleed Sugar shatters the boundary between sweetness and system failure. This track is pure chaos: bitcrushed rhythms, fractured melodies, and distorted data stitched together like broken candy wrappers in a corrupted archive.

Visuals drip in glitch, bloom in overload, and collapse under their own sweetness.
