The Summer Music Competition

[mwgdrwg]

A poll sounds cool but don't put it up yet...I plan to tweak my tune at the last minute.

 

[Funky_ken]

I'm fine with a poll, but I think the old "top three" way works better.

Agree .... I'm easy but think the 'Top 3' way works well.

 

[Fruitloop]

am I too late?

 

[boing!]

No, I think sundays the closing day. Shall we keep it to the top 3 voting way then, you get a bit more feedback on your tune that way.
Or we could have a poll to decide whether to have a poll.

 

[jodal]

I am fine with either a poll or top 3. Although I think maybe we should start a fresh thread so that people don't have to read through 4 pages worth of our banter.

 

[hiccup]

Aaargh aargh, wait for me. Will have something done in a couple of hours.

 

[hiccup]

Right, I did this this afternoon:

Saturday Again

 

[miniGMgoit]

Ive listened to them all.

There all crap.

Therefore, I win.

 

[jodal]

So, when does voting start?

*drums fingers on table*

 

[jodal]

Oh and are we going to start a new thread?

*more finger drumming*

 

[boing!]

yeah I think someone should start a new thread...

BTW, JE:5 I can't listen to your tune cos the yousendit file has transpired.

 

[hiccup]

Cos I'm so nice, you can now d/l JE:5's track here. JE:5 - if you'd rather this wasn't the case for any reason, let me know and I'll take it down.

Just listening to all the entries now, quality stuff

 

[hiccup]

Would anyone object if I downloaded/recorded all the entries and stuck them all in a zip file so it was easy for people to download them in one go?

Well I'm going to do it anyway. PM me if there are any objections.

 

[jodal]

Thats fine by me. But if you one day release an album, and one of the songs is called Blind As Captain Cat, I'll come looking for you hiccup, mark my words.

 

[mwgdrwg]

Thought someone better create a voting thread

 

[jodal]

Good one guys. Now we just need people to vote!

Vote now

Maybe we should have made this a poll after all, bet people would show more interest.

 

[Moggy]

sorry guys, still in london and haven't got back to wales to get to my kit, once again, have been far too disorganised so theres noo entry from me AGAIN. Won't be on the boards for a while due to personal issues so take it easy the lot of you.

 

[jodal]

This is getting ridiculous! Why aren't people voting.

Vote now

 

[jodal]

So what programs did everyone use to make their tunage?

I used FL Studio and Sound Forge.

 

[hiccup]

Reason and Sound Forge. Though when I'm feeling brave I use Cubase too. NI Battery is just the dogs bollocks when it comes to drum sounds.

 

[JE:5]

I used Orion Platinum and The Drumatic and Juno X2 plugins along with the standard Orion instruments and effects.

 

[mwgdrwg]

Dabbling with FruityLoops. I normally use SoundForge but as I've been to lazy to load it onto my new PC I've been using Nero Wav Editor

Here's my second track/groove that I just made today :

[boing!]

I only have reason at the moment. I did have soundforge but eventually it decided I had to register it which was a bit of a problem as i didn't buy it.
I really need to get a proper copy of it again.

O.K. big bump.I've been thinking about this.Summertime music first thought is the Lovingspoonfull (don't ask me for the originals of the bands title,it's embarrassing) first off I thought "Summer in the city" bit too obvious then "Jug band music" subtle but a bit UScentric then I realised its this:



Sorry for the general misogyny but it was the sixties.Post inspired by popbitchs "best summer songs" thingy.There are millions out there but this is mine (stamps feet).
