    Accoustic competition

    Here's the deal: people rely too much on electronic instruments to make music these days. I'm sure some of us can play some real instruments (or not hehu).

    I want to make a little competition with us on here. You don't have to be any sort of decent at any instruments, or even have any real instruments for that matter. The idea is to have fun making noise.

    The instrument can be literally anything in your house. Your goal is to make an entire song using yourself or things around your house. If you have an actual instrument to play, great! But bear in mind, everything else (percussion, any sort of synth, whatever) HAS to be made by yourself as well. No synthesizers!

    Examples of instruments you can use: Guitar, brass instruments, drum set, wind instruments, etc.

    Example of things you would use otherwise: couch, pots & pans, cat, use your imagination...

    You can sample all these "instruments" and re-arrange them as you wish in any music editor, but you can't use any post-effects except maybe a bit of reverb. Try to keep it as ghetto as possible and people will vote on the most creative entry.


    Rules recap:

    -only acoustic shit, no electronic instruments (synths etc.)
    -you can use anything else that makes noise in your house
    -no post-processing/filtering
    -you can use any samples you make and re-arrange them and edit them as you wish otherwise.
    -you don't have to actually be good at music, just have fun and stuff.

      I wish I could beat box to make the synths and snares I have an idea, but is there a deadline for this?

          I say give us a month.


          Especially since recording a ton of things takes time, especially to master and stuffs.

              oh yeah there's no set deadline for this yet. I want to see how much interest there is first.


              as far as prizes go any suggestions?

                      That's good, but one of the judging categories shouldn't be stepableness.

                          Sounds interesting. I might try to put something together for lulz. xD A deadline would be nice to have, so I can plan accordingly.

                            I'm trying to say no vsti/soundfonts or instruments on your computer. You'd have to record everything yourself using "real" instruments/objects. You can record digitally and re-arrange it if you wish, without modifying the sound itself.
