Pages (3): « 1 [2] 3 »
I know there's only 8 positions available and I know MFB hates the kind of music I make but holy fuck I hope I get to be a part of this, this sounds incredibly fun and as a starving student between jobs I'd love a chance at the $250. That's my share of rent for a month.
Sounds like an interesting challenge. I wouldn't mind checking out the material we'd have to use when it's ready..

PM!

I live in really shitty campus housing with two other people, rent might be cheap but we're definitely getting what we pay for. The other day the mirror in the bathroom fell out of the wall and hit my friend over the head while he was brushing his teeth. And not to further reference Fight Club but the way the water looks in their house, is how our water looks if it's not run for a few days. Blood red.
You're not missing out.
8 positions overall. If the first cut is close, I might allow a few extra but again, the judges are busy people and I wanted to have them judge 2 tracks per week. Seniority and overall activeness will play a part in choosing the contestants as I do think it is more fair that this contest be reserved for contributing members but obviously the skill has to be there as well. So lets say it is a tie between some new guy and someone that is on here regularly, I will be bias towards the person that posts regularly and that is just a matter of fairness.
And I've noticed a few people I seem to not get along with haven't expressed interest. I do want them to know that as far as this competition, I'm not holding any grudges and my vote doesn't count any more than the other judges.
mmm i am a bit scared if you are not going to send us midis, i feel more comfortable when i know i have full control of rythm and melodies, i'm usually keen on using arpeggiated versions of the melodies i receive to remix but well having plain wavs adds a part of challenge that is good on every contest.
I can post the midis if people are stuck. The things posted will just be a template of sorts. I don't expect anyone to use the same rhythmic or melodic accentuation as the examples will most likely be piano renditions. Will probably do a chordal and arpegiatted setting for each.
no midis sounds actually cool, then it requires some sort of ear. or maybe that should be a different contest: "recreate the midi".

so my Beethoven-type genes are of no use anymore? 
recreating a midi is not that hard but needs a lot of time and converting it into the DAW is a pain in the ass :S
Guys, come on!!!! micro DJ'ing with stems/wav files is not producing.... MFB: I suggest you just provide a root key# and mandatory progressions within 16 measures and the rest is up to the producer. if people just want to juggle with pre-arranged rifs, go back to kindergarten and play with MAGIX Musicmaker or something.....

i find it very productive and good practice to recreate the midi's , i spent the last Friday and Saturday recreating a 16 bars melody , it's long process , but good practice for your ears

the midis will just be very general and not really in a trance setting. It won't do you much good to just plug it in as it just won't work. Thats why the remix part is stressed. You are taking whatever part of the melody or chord progression you like as they will all be pretty long and just use what you want whether it be 1 key interval or the entire thing.
i really don't see what all the huff is about. just take what the guy gives out. everyone will be on the same page and if you don't like it, tough skittles for you.
Some examples of melodies I have done in the past. THese are almost a decade old so what I provide will be much more interesting and unique but it will give you an idea of my competency.
Terminal.mp3 - 1.14MB
PressureMaster-04m.mp3 - 0.98MB
Looking forward to hearing the samples now. When will they be complete
well the ideas are done. Just a matter of putting them to audio which will happen on the weekend.
