Everyone go post in my thread you fags.

EDIT: Read the article too, and don't spam. I'll recommend a ban if you do, i'm a harda'ss.

Hello, everyone. Hope I'm not interfering with anything, but Nick said to post in here to tell you about this. He says you guys would be cool with it, so thank you.

In R&M, a covers competition is going on - but after some short deliberation with others, I decided to extend the invitation to the other forums as well.

If you're interested in recording a cover of a song from any genre (doesn't have to be rock or metal, it can be punk or other genre), then please stop by (it's stickied at the top of the page) and submit your entry.

The rules and everything are in the first post, but it's basically common sense.

If you're interested, please participate! I would like to see a lot of entries, not just from R&M people.

The deadline for the entry is January 29th. One entry per user, blah blah blah, read the rules in the first post for further info, if you're interested.

Thanks, and have a good one.

This definintely sounds like a lot of fun. Will it be a voting type thing?

Yes, sir. After the submission thread gets all closed up, there is a voting thread.

I have a Soundclick where I store all the submissions. I link everyone to it in the voting thread, and give the instructions in that thread.

In a nutshell, people write a couple sentences about every song: what was good, what could be improved, final comment, and a score out of ten.

I then calculate the mean and standard deviation, and then rank that way.

This explanation kinda sucks, so let me link you to the most recent competition we had: hopefully this will clarify for you.

In this thread, people ask questions, submit snippets of their songs, and other things. It's basically the introduction to the theme.

Here, people vote as I described. This is just the thread in action, so you get an idea.

For some reason, the coding screwed up in the results, so that's why it looks so awful in terms of aesthetics. But yeah, that's where I find the mean and standard deviation.

I hope this was helpful. Nick said that there are a few people here who are into covers, so hopefully they join up.

I want to record a cover of Dancing Cheek To Cheek, but I have no experience with recording, home or otherwise, and would not know where to start.

Nor do I. But I don't got anyone to record with either.

Well, for drums, I'm going to be uploading Drum Kit From Hell and Fruity Loops for people, so that could be a start.

As for recording itself, I can't do much save for link you to Audacity. I don't have recording capabilities while at university, but I do take care of anything and everything else.

You could ask people in the Jam Session (Berner or moaner, for example), and I'm sure they could help you out.

I have Audacity, and I could find the other programs, but I can't be bothered. And as it would be a punk cover, all the beats and the instruments would need to be changed, as I would, ideally, have it with a bouncy skapunk version of the song. But thanks anyway.

On another subject, 'teh' is the most tortuous misspelling there is. Everytime I see it, it's like rusted metal fingernails scratching the inside of my chest.
