Pop Punk Music Competition

[Permanent Solution]

Quality name eh?

Alright, so here's the deal, by midnight (Mountain time) on August 20th your entries to this are due. Now, what are entires?

Entries are one or more of the following:
1. A cover song played by you and/or your band or other mxers.
2. An original composed by you and/or your band or other mxers.

The goal of this competition, with the lengthy deadline, is to encourage collaborative efforts on the part of mxers. I'll take songs by your band, but I'd prefer collaborative mxer songs. Bonus points for composing a song with other mxers.

Unfortunately, I am going to require no MIDI compositions but instead please record actual instruments. Buying a computer mic is insanely cheap and if that's all that's holding you back please purchase one. Mixing software is available free all over the internet.

Please participate...rep for all participants from me and at the end we'll all vote on what we like best but have fun with this, that'st the primary goal. Get talking!

Addendum: you can have as many entries as you like as long as the group is different ie you can have one from your band, one solo, one with mxer a and b and one with mxer c and d and so on and so forth. This is again to encourage collaborative projects.

WOOOOOT!!!

I call, for me and Justin, and another possible Mx'er (To sing) to do "No It Isn't" - (+44)

[Mute Print]

Good idea Vince.

If I a) could play an instrument and b) had recording capabilities, I'd be down.

[Surtr]

JUSTIN WHERE ARE YOU GODDAMNIT!?!?!?!??#@$#@!?$@!%#%#!@?#??????

Ugh, come on man, ANSWER!

[Permanent Solution]

Good idea Vince.

Hahaha how did you even get to mx then?

[Surtr]

Hahaha how did you even get to mx then?

Lmao, Birna, you have to play some sorta' instrument!

You're probably insane at all them, you're just lying to us.

AND WHERE ARE YOU JUSTIN!?!?!?!

[Mute Print]

Hahaha how did you even get to mx then?
I don't remember.

The only instrument I've even tried to learn is guitar, but that was after I started lurking MX I think, so I don't know how I got here.

[Permanent Solution]

Haha, well you've got 2 months...plenty of time to learn an instrument well enough to play pop punk ;)

[Surtr]

Haha, well you've got 2 months...plenty of time to learn an instrument well enough to play pop punk ;)

Haha Vinny, so far I seem the only one interested, and that's only if I get Justin on this goddamn website :lol:

[Permanent Solution]

Jon's interested. Rissa will be bugged until she's interested. We'll find people. We have 2 months ;)

[Surtr]

Good :)

I'm pumped.

[Eliminator]

[Dead Star]

tbh I would play bass for anyone that wanted it.

[Surtr]

J, you're with me.

AND WHERE THE JESUS **** ARE YOU JUSTIN!?!?! I'M ****ING BLOODY WAITING FOR YOU! ****ING BLOODY HELL!

[cobert]

No way to record.

Id love to participate though.

[Eliminator]

[cobert]

I have like 20 bucks, Ill probably be around the mall in a few days, so its a possibility.

[BridgeToSolace]

I will play guitar for this.

And sing.

[DJ Ducksauce]

Hi Stewart. :)

[Surtr]

We're doing a cover of "No It Isn't" - (+44)

Start recording the guitar..That or I could do drums tomorrow if I get the chance.

[DJ Ducksauce]

Ok, um shouldn't you do the drums first though?

[Surtr]

Yes I should.

Ignore how far into this I've thought.

I'll do it tomorrow if I have the time.

Edit: AIM or MSN me pleaseee..Pref. MSN

AIM: lightningsii

MSN: lightningstrikestwice_13@hotmail.com

[DJ Ducksauce]

Alright. I'll be sure to check in then.

Oh, does anyone happen to have a program that'll rip audio from videos so I don't have to use a really crap quality recording?

[Surtr]

Google "Video to Mp3 Online Converter" or something like that. There's a website I use but it's not on this computer's bookmarks.

[DJ Ducksauce]

Ok, and getting on aim.

edit: or not. Mother says I have to practice. :-\

[Permanent Solution]

Alright. I'll be sure to check in then.

Oh, does anyone happen to have a program that'll rip audio from videos so I don't have to use a really crap quality recording?

Windows movie maker will do it.

Oh and I will play drums, guitar, or bass, and make my brother play piano if anyone is so inclined.

[DJ Ducksauce]

Alright V. Thanks.

I can play piano as well if it's needed.

[Grohlthegreat]

edit: sorry didnt read first post properly. dont suppose there's anyone that wants to do anything with me? i play guitar (acoustic, my electric is currently bust).

[BridgeToSolace]

omg Mia and Vince are doing a collab to rip ur fayce!

[Pete]

would anyone be interested in composing some sweet melodic hardcore?

my capabilities;
*major guitar shreddage
*programming advanced, intricate, lifelike drum patterns (not just loops)
*singing clean vocals with surgical precision
*mixing/mastering at a professional level
*composing and arranging like a musical wonderchild

i may have exaggerated, but if anyones up for some melodic punk rock/hardcore stuff (anything from A Wilhelm Scream to Belvedere) and preferrably to write an original song, please do add me on msn - terrorman31 at hotmail dot com - and we can send stuff back and forth.

[Permanent Solution]

Oh yes and just to clarify, these songs can be any genre really, I mean we don't even discuss Pop Punk here anyways so do music you discuss here or whatever.

Oh and if Jon and I are the only entrants I will steal all of your first born children >:[

Edit: Oh and I'd do a collab with you Pete if I have time, I'll let you know.

[Pete]

i have midi-sketches of a few sweet songs, fyi, so i'm game

[BridgeToSolace]

Lols, if it's just me Vince and Pete I'll be happy.

We'll need vocals, and since I know Brian and Spence can really belt it, we'll need your help.

[Kif]

I'd be up for this. I remember the last time we tried to record something in this forum and it went so wrong.

[Permanent Solution]

Hey we did Green Day...once.

[Mute Print]

I could do vocals if I can find a mic.

I can't really sing, but I'd probably be able to do (melodic) hardcore vocals of some kind.

[BridgeToSolace]

The two collabs I'm working on are both starting out nicely at least.

Hopefully I'll be able to play this **** >_<

If anyone needs whiny high vocals, I'm your guy. I might record a Kelly Clarkson song to enter.

Or a Say Anything song or Ever So Sweet if I want to do a serious vocal representation.

[Kif]

I'd be up for Say Anything

And god Vince don't make me remember haha. I think we messed up cos we couldn't get drums, so they were programmed instead.

[BridgeToSolace]

I can rock the Alive With The Glory of Love and Woe (the better song) like nobody's businaz!

Yessssss. I can do guitar and bass and I'm pretty good at programming drums, but you're probably better at that.

[Eliminator]

wait when did you post herE??

[Permanent Solution]

Wait, why are people programming drums? There's drummers here too guys =|

[Surtr]

Pfff..Programed drums..WTF?

**** THAT!

'Cept I need drum sticks :mad:

[Eliminator]

programmed drums are gay because they aren't real and so it actually isn't music!

[Surtr]

Programmed Drums are gay because they aren't real.

Not because it isn't actually music.

Why use a stupid crappy programmed drum beat, when you can have a much better real person do it.

[Kif]

We programmed the drums last time because no one bothered recording them.

And Jon: I know Woe! :D

I can sing it good if I'm not playing too.

looooooool

[Surtr]

k Nick.

[comptonassrobert]

Programming drums is easier because most people are lazy and wont record drums. We tried doing the Punk Forum Cover Songs thread but they were all too lazy to record.

http://media.putfile.com/poppppy6
anybody wanna put vocals over that?

[Permanent Solution]

tbh I recorded drums for IKSOSE a long time ago and the bass and guitar never recorded asshats >:[

[DJ Ducksauce]

Hey! I was ready to do guitar, the bass never came though. :(

[cobert]

Without listening, im guessing he made it up.

[Eliminator]

i need a mic

someone send me a mic

That wasn't one of the cover songs for the Punk thread. That was an original I recorded awhile ago.

[BridgeToSolace]

I can sing it good WHILE I play it, bitch.

[comptonassrobert]

mhm :]

[Kif]

Prove it then :angry:

[Iscariot]

if someone wants to record something a little post-rock'ish i have a couple of riffs i could record

i have a good repetitive line and a couple of full songs i've written

[Kif]

That wasn't one of the cover songs for the Punk thread. That was an original I recorded awhile ago.
I kinda missed this. You got lyrics for it?

[comptonassrobert]

I kinda missed this. You got lyrics for it?

No sir. The thing about that song is, it was originally just a song I did when I was bored, but my ska band changed it around a little and now it's one of our songs. That version is different though, so I don't have any lyrics.


Feel free to do whatever you want with it :]

[Permanent Solution]

Jon and I are going to rape this competition, I'm not gonna lie.

[Kif]

That's cos Vince is gonna use his mod powers to cheat :angry:

I'm onto you...

[Permanent Solution]

tbh I've never really cheated in my life because I'm so good I don't need to <_<

:p

[Kif]

I'll be the judge of that when I hear your song :D

I can't wait to hear them all to be honest.

[Dead Star]

I would really like to actually do this.

But it turns out nobody needs Bass :(

[Permanent Solution]

I'd bring you in one of mine but having a star bass player who lives with you just makes it so hard for me to need bass for anything, sorry =(

[Pete]

[Permanent Solution]

Give a link wherever you want and I'll keep track of all of them in the first post.

[Pete]

Okay, I'm tewwibly sowwy, but I'm cancelling all collaborations due to not being able to stay in touch with anyone so instead of 2-3 entries, I'll just post a single one on which I'll do everything. It will rock hardily anyway, so don't worry. I have a few songs written, so it's just a matter of picking one to blow yall away..!

[Pete]

Shattered teeth and broken glass
The blood of children stain the grass
"There's nothing quite like kicking ***!"

These violations of the trust
Placed in you to care for us
The result of some compulsive lust

I hope some day it ****ing hits you
Like concrete in the face
A hailing rain of cobble stone
From this welcoming parade
And that you slowly realize
As blood is filling up your eyes
You couldn't have been more at fault
When you fed the kids asphalt

You wield that ****ing rubber stick
As an extension of your dick
Your macho ideals make me sick

Another time, another place
Another bruised and bleeding face
Another deed you can't erase

I hope some day it ****ing hits you
Like a ton of falling bricks
That you're just nailing yourself up
To this ****ing crucifix
And once you're hung there on display
You know there's no getting away
Three rusted nails through feet and palms
Then you're showered in napalm

"The court is now in session
To teach you ****ing punks a lesson"
You act both judge and jury
Do we really need another Seattle, Gothenburg or Hungary?

sick song bro

[PietroCrespi]

Pretty good song. I've got some song you guys did on my other computer that I really like. It starts out with a clip of a speech, but I can't remember what it's called.

[Pete]

Pretty good song. I've got some song you guys did on my other computer that I really like. It starts out with a clip of a speech, but I can't remember what it's called.

If it starts out with a Malcolm X speech, it's "Is This It?" from our latest album "Outside of Calamity" (which is awesome, btw) and if it starts out with a Bill Hicks stand-up routine, it's "Soil of the Underground" from our EP "Opposing the Numerical Obsession" (which is awesome, btw). :)

[Fish]

Okay it's easier if I just go with this song, is it okay if its just the myspace? its the only song we have up.

[Pete]

except i dont have much of a voice

[Iscaryot]

if i would have seen this thread prior to yesterday i would have asked you

i'm not observant though

we could have covered some blink or some avril or whatever little pop-punk is in my musical library of knowledge and sounds good on an acoustic
