Just so you know ... it's not like there is 12 tracks all the way through. Each little section has it's own track, there really aren't more than 4 at a time going.

Ehh ... I guess I just don't see how you did "more."

I wasn't trying to be impressive with my chops (obviously), my goal was the final product and how it sounded.

They're starting to resemble them.

Yes. For some freakish reason I liked Atomicants :lol: It was jsut cool sounding.

But I eventually voted for Luke.

Sade

Riouken, you FAIL!

No, I'm just a bit confused as to why you have so many more votes ... when *in my opinion* your song lacked much ... song-ness? Seemed more to me to be just a load of noises with echoes ... and the occasional note. I did my best to incorporate some sort of rhythm and structure to the song.


Oh well, it's an internet comp. Nothing to get worked up over :)

Oh sade, as if one vote is gonna be a dent in your ego :p

Besides, I think you've pretty much won this. Even if Luke was clealry more talented...


and atomicant....


and everyone else on this forum...


JOKE! You're all great!

Since when must songs contain any sort of pre-concieved notion of dogmatic sonic property?

Your song is still subjective noise, you realize that, no?

:amaze:
10-30-2005, 09:40 PM
Also, I would (and most likely the other competitors) much appreciate a little bit of reasoning/ critique on the pices with the votes.

You seem to forget! It use to be cool to argue with Sade, but now it's cool to like and be liked by Sade! His fanboys are voting for him :p

Of course it is. And every person, I'm sure, has a valid reason for voting the way they did. I'm just trying to understand what made your song (according to the votes) more than 4 times better than mine.

It's not a song. It's a halloween comp. Have you ever listened to any of the best horror movie scores? They're not even notes. It's just noise. The Shining's soundtrack-perfect example.

My bad. I was under the impression that we were composing songs.

:amaze:

Well the term song is subjective...I just wrote what I felt necessary. You obviously did the same, but if you're looking for an in stone insurrection, perhaps it's because you DID work it too much like a song?

either way, I enjoyed your entry just as much as anybodies.

Yeah, it's cool. I'm not mad or anyhting rediculous like that. I guess my point is that I'd like to hear the reasonings behind why people think some are good and some are less so.

I liked yours too, btw ... just a different approach to the topic.

These entries were just one big WOW

Atomicant: well, you had a few good parts but i think you just played it too randomly. its fine that you played some random notes to make it scarier but sometimes i think you should combined the noises into a theme or something more listenable.

Luke19Boarder: are you a psychopath? what the hell was that? where did u get this from? i might be an easily scared guy but this was scary man. what i liked here was especially how the song was sort of "increasing" toward the climax. and when the climax reached BOOM I felt like someone was near me or something. great track.

Cil: Another psychopath here in MX, this was toward more random noises but i liked this better than Atomicant because to me i thought the song flowed more even though it was mostly random, i felt like there a reason why cil played those noises, and that its not just there for us to hear. great track as well.

Janyeno: this song is considered "happy" compare to the other entries :lol: its a great track as well, i enjoyed the random noises between the melody and the main riff. the thing is, i didn't get the scary feeling in this track, although it was a great track. it sounded to me more like an action movie type of soundtrack rather than a horror film. but that's just me. good track anyway.

Nice guys
Vote: Luke19Boarder

I voted for Lukes. I really like the building effect in it.

I kinda want to do mine again and change some parts, but i dont know how the **** i made half of the noises on there :lol: I should have spent longer on it, than my no draft/ one take attitude but oh well.

janyeno

I reckon it's pretty much done... that's probably a record for votes though... usually takes like 2 days to get 8 total votes...

I can close the poll and keep this open if you want to discuss the next competition.

Sade
10-31-2005, 05:30 PM
Closing the poll sounds good-we've sucked the votes dry methinks.

My idea for the next comp: A bass loop comp with a theme.

What I mean is, recording of a 15 second or so bass loop-with as many effects, tracks, etc as you want. The idea is to see how you can polish and perfect a very short amount of material.

The theme to write the loop about is snow. Winter, cold-etc.

Sound good?

janyeno

so basically we are just trying to get 15 seconds of the best possible composition we can ... and replay it over and over?
