We need Beatbox Festivals! w/ D-low
Вставка
- Опубліковано 24 лис 2023
- Join me in an insightful conversation with @Dlowmusic the 2019 GBB Champion, as we delve into the world of beatbox festivals and their significance. We discuss the current scenario where all beatbox events revolve around battles, leaving no dedicated space for performers who prefer showcasing their skills without competition.
Many S-tier beatboxers are drifting away from competitive battles, impacting our community. We explore the question: Could hosting events solely for performances be the solution to retain these artists? Discover the potential answer to this dilemma in this engaging video discussion!

I just realised, i've never seen dlow and madox even interact with each other before, let alone make a video
wait me either haha
By the way Lolli Wren from the channel The Fairy Voicemother is in Europe and sometimes looking for events to go to and people to interview. If you want you could reach out to her and see if she's interested in helping promote the event and maybe she can interview people there. Additionally if any of the beatboxers like the collaborative aspect you mentioned, she's got a background in acapella arrangement, is a really good singer, does some extended vocal techniques and has been starting to learn some beatbox techniques, so if anyone wanted to work with her it could be a cool performance between acapella and beatboxing.
Don't know how much work it'd be, but I would LOVE a beatbox podcast
Speak of all this makes me think that the community and top Beatboxers should create something like “Beatbox’s got Talent”.
Something like Americas got talent( where people get up and do auditions, and Beatboxers choose a talent to train them for 3months -1 year etc to get them ready for a major competition the following year!
To both your points on beatboxes branching out, the US West Coast Beatbox champs occurred recently, where FootboxG did two showcases, one pure beatbox and one of produced tracks, his dj material. Both showcases were incredible and highlights of the event (that had a ton of fun).
I think Gene is another incredible example of this. He uses beatbox as a major instrument in his repertoire. I personally would prefer to hear Gene showcase than battle.
There's so much more for the beatbox community, it'll be exciting to see how the scene evolves over the next decade.
Great conversation. D-low understands the art form, its origins, and the scene as a whole like not other. Also, very refreshing that this doesn't have any flashy edits, random overly-energetic intermissions or whatnot. Hopefully will be able to attend in Chur!
damn I really like that comment! I‘m also sick of super fast edited content, it stresses me out and I enjoy "slower" content like podcasts wirh real human connection and human flaws, not perfectly phrased sentences spoken tripple time.
@@Madoxbeatbox Exactly. We're all dopamine junkies when it comes to that. It's in every little aspect of life nowadays. So in other words, more of this is what we need. Obviously a large segment of UA-cam audiences needs the flashy Quatsch to stay focused, but a large part of us enjoy these slower deep-dives. I think it's all about relevance. And it was highly relevant to talk about the how's and why's of festival formats this way.
@@Madoxbeatboxagreed, great video and editing !
Dlow is so humble and kind human being!
I like how he explained rare world feral 1:02:50
i believe showcase formats are the best way of showing off one's true soul through beatboxing on a stage. Definitely lookin forward to both attend and possibly perform one day at a Beatbox Festival
35:37, I was on a festival last summer where there had a little ‘open stage’ outside from the main stages. It was open 24/7 and whoever wanted could just hop on and show off with their talents. Maybe that would be a nice way to get this idea done
we actually thought about this, sick idea!
Really great discussion! Would be cool if some of the beatboxers want to collaborate together or bring in beatboxers from the audience, I always find it so special to see different styles of beatboxers come together, so it can make it a performance really unique seeing new combinations.
I think also beatboxers can create hype in standalone performances doing stuff like rock/metal bands doing guitar or drum solos in a song. I think sometimes beatboxers/beatbox groups don't include technical sections for songs out of competition, but some other genres do this even if they're not competition based. I think there are good ways to weave these in that works for the song while also creating the element of jaw dropping impressiveness.
Please start doing the short form videos with music creation again Maddox. Maybe as long form content but i loved that you are jsut focusing on creating music.
I definetly will do that again! Right now I have other priorities, but I still have the desire to do it again!
It's not just skill vs. perfection. Is the ability to do a bunch of crazy sounds versus the ability to understand how to create music that people enjoy. Both are skills but one is a lot flashier
dude here in the US, like Los Angeles area friends and I would 100% go to these shows!
Excited!! Thanks for the content madox!
Could you imagine D-Low composing a piece and just being a conductor on stage with a beatbox orchestra
i missed most of this during the premier but it was sick.
Love the input and seeing you both with inspiring words and ideas
You should collab with black Pegasus for reaction videos or music videos that would be really cool for you as well as the audience:)
D........Lowwwww
I won't be able to make to the event but I am super keen to see these performances on a non-competitive stage. I hope, and am sure (even if it is behind the scenes) that we will also get some really creative collaborations coming for the artists.
YES Madox YES D-LOW 🤣
Even the first minutes show the creativity of Dlow :D
D-LOW the Goat
Really enjoyed this conversation! You both had such good points, a lot of things I'm always thinking about, too. Beatboxing still is a pretty new/young form of art, compared to others and will continue to evolve.
We need 30 min slots from beatboxers at Bass Pod stage EDC! The crowd would go insane 🔥
We lose lots of beatboxer. Many people choose to do something else instead of beatboxing because it provides a more sustainable income. Beatboxing is really a niche market. Codfish is beatboxing just as a hobby. Zero will become a doctor. And others, like NME Showgo, went the more musical route. Doesn't include the strange case like Tomazacre. If you're not famous enough to tour like Berywam or Dlow It will be really difficult to live with it much. Many people take up beatboxing just as a hobby.
Wtf?zero a doctor?
@@Iamgroot-tq3ktyes, you ever hear how technical he is
And zekka a fire fighter
i always had a feeling dlow was still cooking up some battle rounds in the background of whatever he was doing, you can tell theres some things hes yet to show the world. but hearing him say that his legacy feels almost complete in a way too after winning gbb actually makes sense. its a story for its time.
I would love to see a beatbox convention with panels and meeting on how to beatbox and interact with pro artist and have every category in one place as an event
D-low and Madox 🐐💪
Wow a D-low interview?
yes!
@@Madoxbeatbox I love that, because dlow is a true genius! I wanna hear all his thoughts :D
For me battles are a like a one time watch, whereas tracks and showcases make we want to listen again and again. For example I watched Colaps battles a couple times but I listened to his routines on his channel again and again, I still do from time to time. The only reason I would return to a battle again and again would be if there was a crazy counter or diss.
For me, the excitement levels cannot be replicated in shows. Nothing comes close to a heated battle.
let us try to prove you wrong at the event!
@@Madoxbeatbox i like the confident. go on
Same for me. Shows can be really nice and enjoyable. But a back and forth battle with counters, judge decisions etc. is imo more exciting.
D-Low's Judge showcase from GBB21 was amazing, now imagine a full show of top level bboxers doing a show.
Dlow being an S-Tier battle monster and being now laid back from battling while making more musical pieces that would work well for showcases, he’s the perfect guy to interview for this topic
Finally you back man
React gbb23 loopstation bro😁
I want to see dlow battling gbb again😢
always said there should be 2 categories at gbb, showcase battle & real battle
There are great songs that wouldnt work as well in a battle, but would blow everyones mind as a showcase. Den, Codfish, Showgo came to my mind, but also Colaps is doing more musical stuff now. I also would love to hear HHas angelic voice live
I hope to hear and you live sometime ❤️🔥
Amazing 😁🔥✌️
You should get Rythmind/Berywam for this event
Amazing content ‼️
One podcast with napom too ❤
Great interview
It would have be great to see bart too
By the way love your informative content
Woah
more circle jam
Wow, german interviewing british, keep it up the unity guys.
If you can get den from Canada that would be sick
🔥🔥🔥
A huge question for me would be how you can step out of the battle scene as an upcoming artist, because it still feels like the only option to get listened to in the scene, is threw battling...
Will the event be in video form too
What happened to Beatbox Bros?
I had busy times moving to berlin and also lots of work. We will come back soon!
Yo❤
Madox where is your beatbox analysis
I often experience this when trying and practicing beatbox pitches, whatever they are, tbh 😅 49:11 without mic idk why, tbh . . .
The world class right now is conformed by not more than 8-10 people, and all of them are people that have been in the scene for a while like River or Napom, back in the day the world class was conformed by more people that don't do much now, like Hiss and Reeps One, so that is true :/
Hey Madox why don't you and Bart upload podcasts anymore in the Beatbox Bros channel ??
27:22
why it’s not in Beatbox Bros?..
Why not on beatbox bros?
Different interview on differently universe 😅🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌😅
I agree with dlow. Trying to do a whole song from just one mouth without layering is very limiting and the quality isnt that good
Where’s beatbox bros at???
Soon. Madox moved irl, give them some time to bring it back 😊
Why is GBb beatboxers all leaving the scene like Codfish
not everyone wants to battle constantly
I thino we need to stop focusing on trying to immitate other instruments and just use different soinds and textures because the fit best in the soundscape of a track-not because it sounds in human.
hope one day i can use AI for advance beatbox training and routines
Not as a woman, no ty! Been harassed enough in the community, thanks -_-
Dick Masterson humiliated you.
Teaching Beatboxing --> Fairy Voice Mother - employ / organize !!! Make programms to learn
There are great songs that wouldnt work as well in a battle, but would blow everyones mind as a showcase. Den, Codfish, Showgo came to my mind, but also Colaps is doing more musical stuff now. I also would love to hear HHas angelic voice live
