Rainbow & Rooted: One Last Shot

[Belgerum]

Something I may be submitting: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/454 ... %20WIP.mp3
Feedback appreciated.

I dunno what it is exactly about this at this stage that bugs me, but it sounds a lot like it's a backing track to something at this point. I don't know if you're planning to add a melody, vocals, or something really prominent to this, but I'd recommend doing it as it just sounds... empty right now.

On the other side of things, Most of it sounds pretty nice. I might get a more prominent snare going, or dd more high end to the spectrum, and a few other things, but those are mostly opinion.

-----

I've been working on this WIP a little bit, fixed a bunch of things, and if I could get feedback from anyone, it'd be appreciated. Name is still tentative, and I have no idea what to actually call it.

I submitted my two tracks a few days early because I'll be out of town when the deadline rolls around, hope nobody minds!

when I want to submit my track for Rainbow and Rooted I have to add a youtube link, but I don't have the full version of it on my youtube channel. Is it okay to add a link to the teaser/preview?

You're not allowed to submit yoiu original R&R track. It will only be rejected. Again. Read the OP for full details.

Actually, if you were working on a song for R&R but didn't submit it, would you be allowed to submit it for this?

[Nine Volt]

I'm sure you would. You definitely would if you, you know, didn't mention that fact. Either way I doubt they care all that much.

15+ hours of work into this, completely scrapped it and started over 3 times. Here is what I came up with. It might have a familiar... ring to it... Heh heh. Enjoy!

(p.s. comment on the video so I can see what you thought of it, since I don't check this forum often)

Just so you know, the video should be set to private/unlisted

Ah buck it then. Not sure why the runner-ups of the original submission are so unworthy to be considered but if THAT's the case then I'm out. I'm certainly not going to scrap together a second track so it can probably be thrown out on the next comp a second time. I don't know if there's any revenue expected on this follow-up to get people people to bronycon which was the point of the first one....

no, it's not my original track for R&R, it's a new one specially made for this.

To answer your original question, you can upload a video of your song to YouTube, but make sure to make it unlisted or private until the album is released. You can then submit the link of the private video.

Alright, I'll do that :3

Make it unlisted if it's on YouTube not private. So whoever's judging can hear your song without downloading it.

[Record Smash]

Submitted my song, it sounds way better then the one I submitted for Four's Fall Down!

[R-Y-S-E]

Before I submit I'm quickly trying to decide what to do with the drums. Do you prefer,
Original Drums:
http://soundcloud.com/r-y-s-e/thin-air-mini-teaser
Harder Drums (snare comes in at end part):
http://soundcloud.com/r-y-s-e/thin-air-harder-drums-sound
I feel like the original drums suit it better but the harder drums sound better. I have no idea which to submit

They both sound good...I would go with the Original drums.

For the download link, does it have to be in a .wav format? Or can it be in an .mp3? I already sent it in as an mp3.

It must be .wav or other lossless format like .flac or .aif.

Okay, I'll probably go with the original. Thanks

Original Equestrias finest flyer, the newer edition i'm working on has mostly the same structure but i went through and added stuff, removed stuff, and edited stuff, so i guess it kinda counts as a remix, but it's minimal. Newer version below!

This is very unrelated, but on the Rainbow and Rooted album, there's a song by Phaux and TheMalenEst called "Cuteness Induced Diabetes Seizure". At 3:35, the lead is sampled from another song, but for the life of me, I can't remember which song? Care to help me out? I swear I can't sleep unless I figure it out!

Get my rope by Nettohunden. It's third track on Balloon Party.
And it's just the melody that's been taken, I don't think it's been sampled.

My god, thank you. I don't know why it was bothering me so much...
