Okay guys, time for the fifth Facepunch collaborative album! First thing's first, the cover art usually goes here. If you want to make the cover art post a few concepts in the thread. The rules are the same as they've always been. Please read through them all, especially if you're new to these! [quote][b]The quality has to be .wav[/b] This is both to ensure that the music we listen to are of the finest quality (and to appease those darned audiophiles :argh:) and to make sure it can be uploaded to bandcamp. Wav takes up a lot of space, but it's losless which means no quality will be lost when being sent around. [b]The volume has to be -3 db[/b] A new step, but one that can enhance the quality a lot. If every song is on the same soundlevel, then it will sound like it's the quality product it really is and means people won't have to bother with raising/lowering the volume while enjoying the CD. We will make sure that the volume of each song is around the same level before releasing, but please keep it at -3db so that there is some standard to the volume at least. [b]Don't think your song is good enough? Ask yourself, is it good enough?[/b] There is no discrimination towards any genre whatsoever, the goal with these CDs is to help people create music (and in this particular case, promote their music even further to the great people of facepunch). It's only you who decide whether the music you've done or want to send is good enough. [b]Once again, only one entry per person.[/b] This one is self explanatory. [b]NO covers or remixes![/b] Not a lot to say really, no covers or remixes, we want original music from you. [b]All proceeds will go to charity.[/b] This is still a free album that costs nothing, HOWEVER as shown in the last threads people still want to pay for the product and who are we to say no to people paying for free music? [b]Have a page where all your music is? Include it when you send me the submission so that I can add it to track information.[/b] All exposure is good exposure, right now the amount of plays on all of the tracks is almost up to 20,000. [b]Anyone can get in on this.[/b] Any number of artists want to contribute, it just means more tracks. Behold the glory of giant-ass digital releases![/quote] To answer a few questions in advance, you're allowed to update your track if you realize there's something wrong or unwanted in it. That being said, please refrain from sending me something half finished on the first day and then updating it later just to get a spot. Remember, there's no track limit and you've got a while to make your song, so get it to a level you're happy with before sending it to me! If you have any more questions send me a private message or post in this thread. I check the musician's gig room at least four times a day so hopefully I'll be able to get back to you quickly. The current release date is [b]September 1st, 2011[/b]. The submission deadline is [b]August 31st, 2011 at 1:00 PM EST[/b]. I know that may be a while away for some, but I have some projects I've got to get done over the Summer and I don't want to promise an early release date if I'm not able to meet it. If you want to join, post in this thread and let me know. When you're done with your track, upload it to [url=http://soundcloud.com/schmoe222/dropbox/]my Soundcloud Dropbox[/url]. Don't worry about having a Soundcloud account, you don't need one. The current list of participants is below. (Names with lines through them are users who have already submitted their track to me.)

Memememememememememememememememememeee!!
Im in like something cos I can't think of a better rhyme. Because its hard to rhyme something with MIDI.
I'm in! When is the last date for submissions?
[QUOTE=hikula;31251248]I'm in! When is the last date for submissions?[/QUOTE] Same as the release date I believe. 1st of September.
[QUOTE=hikula;31251248]I'm in! When is the last date for submissions?[/QUOTE] Can't believe I forgot that. I'd like to have the entire collection a day in advance, the 31st of August. I'll update the OP.
I'm in of course. Could you post the current statistics for the last release? Downloads, plays, buzz, that kind of things. =)
I'm in brosefs
[QUOTE=Dick Tracy;31251603]I'm in of course. Could you post the current statistics for the last release? Downloads, plays, buzz, that kind of things. =)[/QUOTE] I'd love to but I don't have the info for the Bandcamp just yet. I've sent a message to Harmonizer but he hasn't responded yet.
Ah I'm in, I'll write something on the piano and if I can't record it I'll just abort that and make some electronica.
Interesting idea, I'd like to give it a shot as well.
Sign me up! :v:
Sign me up too.
Sign me up, actually started working on a dnb-track earlier today.
Sign me up.
I'm in!
[QUOTE=Paragon;31254842]I'm in![/QUOTE] Hey, I see you submitted your song but it's in .mp3 format. Make sure it's normalized to -3 db and then send it to me in .wav please!
It may take me a couple hours to make a song. I'm in on this though.
I'm in.
[QUOTE=glohwormchen?;31256013]It may take me a couple hours to make a song. I'm in on this though.[/QUOTE] Well you've got about 960 hours starting tomorrow so you should be in the clear. :v:
Put me in please, maybe that will force me to make a good song. [editline]21st July 2011[/editline] Never mind take me out. I am literally unable to make music, I throw out everything I started because I don't think it's good enough.
I'm in.
Might do something... Doesn't matter since therea re unlimited spots anyway, right?
I'll try to finish that song I didn't finish for the last album
[QUOTE=Schmoe222;31256709]Well you've got about 960 hours starting tomorrow so you should be in the clear. :v:[/QUOTE] Damnit I wouldve needed 961 :v:
I'm the only blue member reading this thread right now :S
[QUOTE=hikula;31258263]I'm the only blue member reading this thread right now :S[/QUOTE] Not anymore bro
might try my hand at this and step outside of my dnb bubble that keeps me so warm at night
So in fl studio a saved as a wave then opened audacity and put it down to -3db. Now i can only save it .aup. Is there any other way i can put the db's down to -3 so i can save it as a .wav?
you should just be able to rename in in audacity to .wav, that should do it. I'll try and make something but I'll probably get sidetracked because I'm so incosistent with this stuff. I have loooooots of free time though so yeah sign me up
