"I believe that's referred to as intelligent drum & bass, which obviously means there's a genre of stupid drum & bass out there" (John Peel)

this might sound dumb, but what if we did some kind of teams? that way each team could make a group of 2-3 people that could cover more genres...

i guess then the concern would be that all the powerhouses would join a team, but honestly i personally would rather play against them because i enjoy the competition hehehe

i saw them hehe ... i just don't know personally how to make those happen :/. i don't know anything about servers because i'm retarded and i think unknown tracks might be too hard i dunno...and with unknown tracks how would you control the scores? i could just send in a bunch of fake names and crap...

well im sure swamper can set up a ftp or something that people can just throw unknown track 1 -> 60 on the server... Mr. Mod talk to him about it

I think that will definately help a lot...


I know the unknown tracks one may be a little hard but the person would have to get the name from somewhere... But id say they would have to provide proof from a sample or something, htfr for example has a lot of older samples and stuff...

You obv couldnt be thats Paul Oakenfold - Razzle Dazzle, cause Oakenfold told me so...

Well im talking about 2 different things. I think he would be up for adding the ID contest to the site, unless thats illegal .

yeah I also think that the reason that there are few who participates is because the contest either:

1. spanns over too many genres. alot of the people here are mainly into the different trance genres.

2. too many samples. at least half the amount would keep it at a normal level

I personally mainly listen to different trance genres and keeping

For me it's because I lack the knowledge to answer most of those id's. I never heard of any of those tracks from the current competition with the exception of 3 obvious tunes.

So, maybe there should be a purely trance competition that runs simultaneously with the current style one.

The competition could be shorter, 2 weeks sounds good to me, with 30-50 samples. And maybe also one weeks pause in between competitions? And new people to host competitions, not always the winner...
