::::::::. **** TA Genre Challenge, Round 4 **** .::::::::
View this Thread in Original format

After challenging myself to deliver some atrocious cheese Trance I thought of this and that it could actually be fun. So this attempt at a fourth round is either a resurrection or the final death knell. In that respect the most important rule is: DO NOT ENTER IF YOU CAN NOT DELIVER YOUR IN MIX!!! :mad:
Now let's see if this works, if no one is interested things might just get cancelled.

Brief Summary:
TA DJs can participate in this challenge. If you do so, you'll be given a randomly selected genre and have to make a mix of that.
Here's how it works in detail.

Step 1: Registration
If you want to participate post in this thread and name a genre that you want to include in the challenge. This must be a genre that is not already named by another participant. Use only EDM genres and don't select anything extremely weird, rare or specific. I'll keep an updated list of accepted people and genres. You can't add a genre without participating or participate without adding a genre. Also, post in such a way that your intentions are clear.
Registration will be open until next Wednesday (07.07.) 13:00 (GMT+1:00).

Step 2: Drawing
After the registration closes there will be 24 hours of time when you may do two things:
1) Withdraw from the challenge. (If you don't like the genre list, are too busy, entered accidentally, etc.)
2) If you have successfully participated in a previous round you can name one genre from the list you do not want to mix. I'll consider this in the drawing.
Entering is not possible anymore in this stage. The drawing will be posted on Thursday (08.06) 13:00 (GMT+1:00).

Step 3: Mixing
Your mix should be between 30 and 80 minutes long. The deadline for submitting them is in 5 weeks, on Wednesday, 11.08.2010
You're also supposed to offer the person who'll mix the genre you brought in some help if required and give him a short feedback on how well he did.

I'm down with this, but I suggest two rules:

1. As before, if you've already played a previous round you can veto one genre in this round.
2. You can't be given a genre you've already mixed in a previous round.

So with that said: Acid House.

1. OK, added this again. People didn't use it a lot in round 3, but whatever.
2. I'll try to pay attention to this but don't want to make it an explicit rule. The chances are slim anyway.

I guess that this indeed will be the last test to see if people still bother with this concept.

Does hip hop count as "EDM" in here?

Right...I guess I'll go with electro instead, then. The Planet Rock-type.
