Week #12 let's gooooooooo. What an epic Week #11 and we got another epic theme for you all.
The judging panel of: @chiefmappster, @danyelk, @instrumentals, and @derekmiller are so pumped for this Week #12 of the League. Thank you to OG Tech Shaman @jphenderson for his continual support of the League.
We have such a dynamic and thriving community of incredible souls that are helping each other to the top. To help this mission, we created an interactive Discord community where you can connect and listen to epic music from the Steemit music community.
@beatseb, @nutela, @seveaux, and myself were in there a few days agolistening to some of last week's entries. @beatseb even blessed us with some epic guitar playing. The Steemit Music Alliance bot has low latency so it provides an epic music listening atmosphere.

Without further adieu, here are the details for Week #12 of the Beat Battle League:
Week #12's theme is:
California Living
Beaches, palm trees, the ocean, and that West-Coast vibe makes California Living well-known across the world. Various OGs in the music world have lived and used California as inspiration for their art. So why not us?
Remember this classic
This is a theme that leaves plenty of creativity and interpretation for producers.
You can go for that West-Coast brand of production. Or create music that would be ideal for California Living. Or many other options.
Let's see how what California Living means to the League.
The rules are simple in the Beat Battle League.
Just make an original California Living submission and use the #beatbattle tag and/or comment your submission on any Beat Battle post.
Remember the entries are judged on:
Sound Quality: does this shit sound crispy, in speakers and headphones, is there cracking or recording errors? How loud can we play it before you notice quality issues? etc
Technicality: what are the skills you displayed in making this beat? The technical aspects of the your craft. The layers and sounds do they match? How many? etc
Creativity: how unique your entry is. How well it revolves around the universal theme? O shit we have never heard that sound before? Stuff like that.
Also, sharing the story about the creation of your art in your Steemit post helps the judging panel and community gain perspective and knowledge on yourself and the message you are sharing.
The prize pool is as follows:
FIRST PLACE WINNER: 65 Whaleshares + 20 SBD for a total of 85 Points
SECOND PLACE WINNER: 50 Whaleshares + 10 SBD for a total of 60 Points
THIRD PLACE WINNER: 40 Whaleshares + 6 SBD for a total of 46 Points
FOURTH PLACE WINNER: 30 Whaleshares + 4 SBD for a total of 34 Points
CROWD FAVORITE: 15 Whaleshares + 6 SBD + 5 SMOKE for a total of 26 Points
