New Contest of sorts ?

Posted by nubbinownz - February 4th, 2010


Alright, so I was given a great suggestion by a friend of mine, CFWM33.

He proposed that because enough people seemed to enjoy my track " Work in Progress" and that there was a very high likelihood that it would never get finished ( Which it probably wont), that I should put the FLP up here and run a contest to see who can come up with the best ending / full on remix of the track :)

So I'm going to do just that! :D

Below will be a link to the Zipped Loop package of the FLP with the samples you will need.

<<<IMPORTANT>>>>
You WILL need ZETA+ to do this. I also used RA but was able to manage resampling the strings sections and putting them in as wav files.
<<<END IMPORTANT>>>>

SO what is the point of this you ask ?

Well first off It's something to do, so if you're feeling uninspired lately you've got something to do. Secondly The winner is going to have their song promoted through my news page. And if enough attention happens to come across this, there might even be a cash prize involved. Or maybe some NG store credit.

There will be only one judge, me. Unless of course I get stuck between 2 or more tracks that I just can't decide, I'll go to a public vote.

Post your remix's/Finished track links up on newgrounds and make sure you credit the original song and post in the comment that it's for the Work In Progress contest.

I'm trying to refrain from posting this up on the BBS because we all know how much we hate silly non legit contest spams. ( i'm basically asking you to remix my song)

BUT if there just isn't enough attention on this news post then I'll probably end up making a post. So that we can get some actual competition going on :D

I have no idea if this zipped loop package is going to work correctly so cross your fingers!

The cut off date is March 9th! :D So get your submissions in as soon as possible :)

GOOD LUCK ALL :D

BLARGH!

I would like to do so, but I'm stuck with reason 4.0, instead of Fl8 :C

Anyway I could get a midi file? (I sound nubby) - No pun intended.

dopwnload that FLstudio mang :D

I'm thinking I might try this.

I dare you :)

I can't promise much but I think I'll give it a try.

no worries man I can't wait to hear what you come up with . Also. I might be moving this to the BBS after all, but if I do there is gonna have to be some kind of cash prize.

Hey! I already finished with my mix. It's a trance/rave sort of thing. I'll post a link to it very soon as soon as I get it uploaded!

<a href="http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/310467">http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/liste n/310467</a>

There ya go! Hope you like it!

Can I help in judging?

I don't have FL so I guess I'll just settle with working on the loops. Y KNOT

Meanwhile could i have loops for the different harsh lead patterns as well?

That might be a bit of time on my part. But I'll definitely see what I can do for you :)

Is it alright if I just take the original audio file and mess with it?

absolutely :)

<a href="http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/311580">http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/liste n/311580</a>

THATS RIGHT I POSTED IT TWICE

I have a question for you - I know we can update our mixes and whatnot, but if I were to make a new mix altogether in a new genre and everything (Maybe instead of rave it'd be breakcore this time?), would I have two separate entries in the contest, or would I have to choose one for you to look at?

I'm just asking because I was toying around in FL with the package you gave us, and I'm feeling a bit inspired to get a hard DnB/break-beat/core type mix going on this.

only one entry :(

Can't say I like the song, but I might give it a try for the sake of the challenge.

Good luck everyone.

hence the reason i'm never going to finish it myself lol

I don't have FL9 so the project file got angry at me ):

Oh well.

Hey, mind giving a listen to my latest song? I don't usually ask people this, but I specifically want your opinion on it if it's not much to ask =)

Nub, I fucking love you. I'm making a mix now C: and in the process learning how you do your stuff and learning how to do Breakcore, which was a dream of mine. Thank youuu<3333

Can't render the stems of the synths? Lame. Do we HAVE to use the included synths?

not at all :) if it sounds similair i think we're ok :)

I hate that it is so long I have to come up with stuff >:((

I suppose I should post this here to? Maybe? *Shrugs*

There is my entry. I went more with the /finished tracks side of the competition.
