Music Compo!

Posted by pounce4evur on Jan. 22, 2012, 9:08 p.m.

Sorry guys, there were more for a competition than there were for a collaboration, and it seems to be the easiest thing to do. I just thought I'd throw out some ground rules and see what you all think. Again, I don't think I'll be hosting this, so anyone serious about hosting/judging/participating in any way, SPEAK NOW OR FOREVER HOLD YOUR PEAS.

So, the rules would be:

1. You cannot use tracks from previous works. They may be used as inspiration, but it cannot be the same song. (Meaning don't change a note in each song and submit that for the contest)

2. As you enter yourself as a participant, make sure to let us know what your preferred genre will be. You can change this at any time until you are 2 weeks into the competition (This will be a 3-week long compo, because I know a new semester just started).

3. The song can be any file type, as long as judges can listen to it and you can prove that all of the songs are yours (or even that it is your remix on a song). It is going to be this way because you can't put mp3 files into this site's file manager.

(any better ideas on this one are welcome. if everyone has access to a certain site, then that will be where the songs will be submitted)

3. You can use any and all music that you make in this competition for your V4D entry as well. (Cyrus says so.)

The theme is: ADVENTURE!

For the past few days I was working on an entry for this, but about an hour ago I went through it again and thought it sounded kind of retarded.

So about 15 minutes ago I went and made this up as I went, which is still terrible, but better than what I had before.

Also, what the fuck's up with soundcloud? My input is not correct? What?

Sweet!

JuurianChi 12 years, 11 months ago

I'll add mine tomorrow.

(Ah- Heck I should do it now…)

Juju 12 years, 11 months ago

Will judge for food.

Alert Games 12 years, 11 months ago

Seems like we have some talent for this compo D:

Also, I guess i'll be a judge. Though I would need some criteria to base my voting on, and I cant judge my own submission :P

I have a feeling that mordi is going to win :O but at least i put together a nice peice :)

That intro is quite awesome, although it sounds terribly low-fi for some reason. What did you use to make it, JuurianChi?

I used Vienna Symphonic with a Retro-Film VST.
