Ugh, I really didn't want to do this, but I think I have to drop out. I've got no ideas on what to make, and it really doesn't help that I have very little time to make anything too. :(

It would be a nice thing if we made a sampler of some songs from the album(s) to send to eqd as an advertisment for the project. Of course you could link to the bandcamp page and call it a day, but I think that taking few seconds of the best songs in here and putting them together to a yt video would give the album much more recognization.

I can take care of this.

Thank you for that kind offer ! We'll get back to you as soon as we have enough submissions and decide what to use for the teaser.
And thanks to all those who are working on their entries or already contributed, this is looking really good so far !

Hey, can we make art for our songs and attach it to the files, or do we just leave them clean?

Shouldn't the entire album have it's own art, and all the tracks be labeled correctly as being part of the compilation?

Album covers are planned (and submissions are even more welcome, we're late on this), as we will probably print and send a few solid copies to the Children's Cancer Association, but there's no harm in having additional goodies.

I made it! It's supposed to be up now.

Man, it's in times like these when I hate not being a native English speaker. I couldn't even sing my own lyrics properly because the phrasing was too fast for my poor tongue, and my accent does me no favors. But I'm still pretty pleased with how it turned out. c:

Here : submission/list.php?event=24
On the bottom of the page, just click "Submit", and fill both "Youtube" and "Download" with the download link, as you're not supposed to upload it on Youtube. Once that's done, it would also make it easier if you could PM me the download link. Thank you so much for your contribution !

I'm sorry I forgot to say so in the announcement, but all submissions need to be encoded either in FLAC or at the very least in 320kbps MP3, a charity album release deserves the highest quality !
