Default CBR Presents Omnicore 2

It's that time of year again. The snow is falling, the kids are playing outside, and it's about fucking time for another FFR Musician Compilation album.

The Throwdown:
- One (1) song per artist only
- Unreleased tracks only
- Remixes, Refixes etc. are allowed, but original works are preferred
- Track needs to be mixed and mastered to the best of your ability
- I will only accept .wavs (16-bit or 24-bit [1411kbps or 2116kbps])
- Optionally, but preferably, include what genre you wish the song to be labeled as in the tags.
- Send the completed, final tune to: CBRSound@gmail.com (CBRSound[at]gmail[dot]com)
- I will be stricter regarding composition and overall sound quality / design this time. Songs may be rejected due to lack of polish or "bad" composition.
- While there is no limitation on song length, I reserve the right to remove extremely long (8 min or longer) or extremely short songs (1 min or less)
- Additionally, I feel the last release was a bit bloated with SOME (most were excellent, though) unpolished or rushed songs.
- We are shooting for a 10 to 15 song album here.

The final album will be uploaded to bandcamp, which allows each individual listener to choose the format [flac / wav / mp3 / ogg etc] of the album,
as opposed to forcing them to have the release as 320 (and/or lower) mp3 only.

ETA: February.
Get on it, my crafty musician friends.

Naw, dude.
That's the whole point of omnicore is to be diverse and present a wide variety of genres to the listeners or even some genre-bending/defying tracks.

Oh cool.

I've got an idea for a "J-Core/Dubstep/Drum 'n' Bass/Breakcore genre roulette" track.

I might make something for this if I feel my ability to create things changes from monotony to iNCReDiuNiQue. I really suck.

wow that's pretty much perfect o_o

the only complaints would be make the '2' more visible or readable and put CBRCD-002 on there. (incorporate it in the design, perhabs under omnicore or on the actual '2' in dark font)
and let the omnicore breathe a bit more, its close the the left border

otherwise, flawless work :')

By aerating the "Omnicore" area you gave me a good idea to make that 2 clearer.

IS IT OKAY NOW

I would never think about rejecting music based on the criteria of style/genre alone, especially not while running a series called Omnicore

I might reject entries though, which I feel lack sufficient knowledge of composition and mixing / mastering. Which most of the regulars that post here are more than well qualified for.

Don't stress, take your time. You guys will be fine.

PS: Mr. Nick Skyline made an alternative cover which he might post here soon which I would like you guys to decide on which would be more suitable for the album.
The other cover will still be included as alt-cover, but obviously wont be the main attraction.

Additionally, Gaz was gonna make one, too, but you dont have to unless you already started working on it xd

Tell you what, post it in the thread and we'll let the contributing musicians, you, me and scylax, excluded, decide which one shall be chosen
P.S. CBR, you can just call me Nick.

I need help with mastering. I feel like a raw gameboy recording won't do it this time, and I know little to nothing about mastering.


I have the .WAV for my raw recording though if someone could help me ._.


ps get yo ass on skype eric
