Another Music Challenge

Posted by pounce4evur on Dec. 27, 2012, 4:38 a.m.

Hey guys. I just wanted to throw this out there, and see who's interested in, or has time for a music composition competition. Of course, this one would (hopefully) be a lot more organized than the last one, and I'll actually have time to sit down and judge this one, because I don't need to do Wintermester, seeing as I passed all my classes.

GIMME SOME IDEAS.

Judging

-pounce4evur

-Stevenup7002

(don't anger the gods–these are PIECES.)

Deadlines

-January 5th (Start Date)

-January 22nd (Deadline)

Time Cap

Don't intentionally try to kill us with a 20-minute piece. If your piece runs a little long, that's fine, but please be aware of the fact that we've got to sit through and analyze every bit of your composition.

Theme

The theme is now Mystery!

**Decided to change this to a challenge, because coming up with a ranking system for music is really difficult and could prove to be unfair. Each piece will receive individual feedback, but will not be ranked or compared.

**********************************

EDIT:

Here's a list of the entries that have been posted thus far. I am posting ALL of the links that you guys have given us. If you want to scrap a piece, update/edit it, or don't want it to be critiqued, let me know.

I don't really care what the theme is, but if I really have to vote I go for mystery or for tragedy.

This is already getting a much better reception than I hoped for. I love you guys. :D

JuurianChi 12 years ago

Well as you can see, 64Digits loves to compete.

You hit the hammer on the nail.

If 5 January is the start date then when is the final deadline?

pounce4evur 12 years ago

Good point! Can we go for the 13th?

Iasper 12 years ago

I agree with Steve, one week is a bit too short. While it's true the pieces can't be too long, it'd be nice to have the time and be able to redo a piece if you don't like it that much without having to stress. Also, more time to procrastinate :D

tbh i suggest Novelty as the theme; we all evidently outlived the apocalypse, and mckenna's time wave zero hypothesis; it never hurts for a new outlook on life, and a jovial interpretation musically

Iasper 12 years ago

I'm all for Novelty actually. It's something different than depressive blogs and it's much more enjoyable to listen to happy, cheerful music (for me at least) than funeral music for example.

Alright, the 22nd it is. Judging will be a little difficult for me, but I'll make it happen. :)

I'm also in for something that wont make me cry…can we elaborate on what novelty means?
