Guest cavatina Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 Are you talking about Ragnarok the game? If so I already wrote three pieces for the game back way when I used to care about it, all of which can be found on my web site... enter them into the contest if you want. I'll save the forum the bandwidth and just direct people to my web site. If you aren't talking about Ragnarok the game, then just ignore this post!
Guest Anders Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 THEME :The theme for this competittion is 'destruction of the world'. This basicaly means that you will write music that is dark and gloomy, yet still bombastic. (need me to clarify more? Just give the word!)[/b] No, just write some evil music! Ah, this calls for further clarification! By the way, do you think you could judge?
Guest cavatina Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 By the way, do you think you could judge? Are you talking to me or yourself? I'd be happy to judge if you are talking to me.
Guest Anders Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 :) Good, i've signed you up. Now we just need some contestants.
Guest Anders Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 Great! Just tell me if you want some things clarified!
Wolf_88 Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 I do! when you said 15 instruments, do you mean 15 staves or 15 different midi chanals?
Guest cavatina Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 Good, i've signed you up. Now we just need some contestants. Sounds like a plan!!! I'm sure they'll come along. If not, I propose massive campaigns to attract the members of this forum which could include, should users refuse to join, punishments of public humiliations and whippings. Basically scare tactics is what I'm getting at here! :) Wolf, you are spared! You can rest calmly now.
Guest Anders Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 Wolf_88: The number of staves doesen't matter. Just make sure there are only 15 instruments. (Piano counts as one instrument, etc) Cavatina: What you propose is what i've been planning all along! (mouahahaha!)
Guest cavatina Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 Cavatina: What you propose is what i've been planning all along! (mouahahaha!) (In evil voice) Goooodd..... goooooood........ mmmouuuuhahahahahahahahahahahaha!!! HAHAHAHAHHAHA!. (The two of us in unison)... mouahahaha! mmmouuuuhahahahahahahahahahahaha!! Okay, enough spam, I am going to sleep. :)
Guest Anders Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 That's the upper limit, it wouldn't be fair to change now, as wolf_88 already started composing! Soooo. Are you in? :)
spc1st Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 Nah, I think I'll sit this one out. I'll help out with judging, if you want.
Wolf_88 Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 That's the upper limit, it wouldn't be fair to change now, as wolf_88 already started composing! By all means don't mind me starting! it's easy for me to add an instrument!
Guest Anders Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 I'll keep the instrument rules. Don't ask why, that's just the way i want it, okay? :) Spc1st: you be signed up for judging!
Guest Nickthoven Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 Grr! I want more instruments! You stink! A full orchestra consists of like 25 instruments! Grrr!
Guest Anders Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 That wohn't do you any good, my friend! :) Actually, it will. Unlimited instrumentation!! Will you join us?
Guest Nickthoven Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 Haha sure. It's a amazing what a little whining will do... :)
Wolf_88 Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 Haha sure. It's a amazing what a little whining will do... :) try not to make too much instruments though! sound can get crappy on some peoples computers (nameingly mine).
The Baroque Enthusiast Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 Hey, can I get in on this? I was thinking of making an angry-sounding baroque piece anyway.....but someone's gotta explain the 15 instruments again. (????)
chopin Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 The winner of this competition will get a recording of their piece for free, using my recording studio. So, any more contestants?
Guest Nickthoven Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 try not to make too much instruments though! sound can get crappy on some peoples computers (nameingly mine). Uh...why should I care? Not to sound like a jerk, but I like to write my music how I want it to be, without the confines of how it's going to sound on my or even less importantly someone else's computer. Anyways, it's just going to be standard orchestra, nothing gigantic! :)
Guest Anders Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 We now have four contestants! 2-3 more and an adittional judge should suffice! :) Nickthoven: Try not to go to hard on us! The Baroque Enthusiast: The instrumentation is unlimited! Chopin: Check the first post, i made your message very clear.
The Baroque Enthusiast Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 Alright, then! This is going to be interesting! :)
