TA Colors 2014 - the 2nd Chapter > OUT NOW! On Beatport and all major downloadstores worldwide!
http://www.beatport.com/release/colours-2/1451187
After more than 2 years, the time is now: TA artists all over the world will jointly deliver a new album representing the core values of this forum.
If you want to learn more what this is all about, please read this topic
I'm trying to get everything pulled together in the next 2 months, aiming for release end of august / early september
This means that each of you will have till July 31st to send me your finished tracks. after that date i'll take a month for mastering, completing artwork and a DJ mix.
Just like with the previous edition, there are some rules you need to be aware of:
1. Please ONLY WETRANSFER your finished tracks to [email protected], please do not use any other sharing/upload/zippy/skydrive/dropbox/whatever tools, i will not use them.
2. Please make sure your track is not mastered/processed, or by any other means squashed. I don't need to win the loudness war and I want to receive all tracks as clean and with as much dynamic range as possible. please refrain from saturators, clippers and all other kinds of "fat" sounding plugins on your master bus. No limiters, no Ozone ect etc.
Just a clean mix, peaking below 0dBFS. I will return any tracks not adhering to this, with 1 request to fix it. If it's still not to my liking, you won't be part of the release. On all other mix issues you'll get detailed feedback and opportunity to fix it. But please appreciate I'm not going to chase after people telling them 5 times to take their sausage fattener off.
3. All mixdowns should be 44.1/24 WAV don't send me links to soundcloud or MP3 files, I will not use them.
4. Please be aware you DONATE the track for release in this project. You don't have to pay anything, but also don't expect to get paid, as proceeds will probably not outweight the project costs.
You will get free exposure on all major download stores and SPOTIFY and you're not signing over any rights. Everyone will be creditted for Artist/Composer/Producer for their work. So if one of these tracks will become a big hit and you hit the top 10, you can have it all. If other labels want to release, you're free to do what you want.
5. Though it's fine to share your work in this topic, I might listen, but will for sure not react on, or use anything posted here. The process is 1/2/3. Everyone who does not follow that proces will miss the boat. I don't want to keep scrutinizing this topic to see if I missed anyone.
6. I need someone to contribute artwork, If you're good let me know in this topic.
7. I need someone to pull together a DJmix in a 2 week timeframe, once mastering is done. This means all tracks that made release being included with at least a 3min window.
8. I have a track limit of 20, It's first come first serve, but you need to adhere to above or the next in line might get your spot.
9. Promotion - I'll promote the album on social media and forums, please feel free to do the same. to be clear I won't invest any additional money in promotion beyond the costs to get it in the stores. Anything you guys can do yourselves is much appreciated. It's a community effort.
10. Haters, feel free to hate, but don't do it here please. This is an effort to deliver something as a community. I'm not a professional label. Neither do I have some secret agenda. I'll "invest" beer money to get us out there and we can all have fun. Let's keep the vibe positive.
Comments and suggestions are always welcome!
Enjoy!
It would mean the world to me if I could get in on this one..
i am going to see what i can do, to get involved in some shape or form this time.
Great, Anyone who wants to participate is welcome to do so. Ryan if you come with a decent track you're good to go,
I'd love to submit a track as well as some possible artwork eventually. I've been using Cinema 4D quite a bit lately and would love to try my hand at something like this.
im in, god willing i can finish it on time
A couple questions,
Are you planning on mastering each track separately? Would you prefer an completely unmastered track be submitted? 44.1/24 seems an odd format otherwise.
Is it also safe to assume you want a DJ-friendly intro and outro?
Finally, are we sticking to a specific genre or is open to anything?
I was in the 1st Chapter, and I will work on a song for the 2nd Chapter.
I am in! 
July 31

im going with this one for Colors 2014 - the usual low bpm from me but hopefully itll fit in somewhere
heres a snippet so far
and heres a 2nd option
Working on some exclusive material for this for now :[
How do you feel about remixes of a forum member's track?
i will do the cover. Eveyrthing i do is wicked. So yay or nay
Will it look like Ranns birthday pic for cryo? 
it will look futuristic and i promise no rainbows
Been working on photoshop for a while so i got this.
Fine with me L4C
Regarding remixes of other submissions, I prefer original tracks on this release.
Cheers for organizing this
