I would definitely love to join, but I'm afraid that my work might be pretty bad :[

About halfway to the deadline, all the artists are sharing their WIP's for criticism and pointers. If at that time you still feel like you're not good enough, you can always pull out. Id give it a shot regardless.

Lesser Knowns / Blank Flanks/ Cutie Mark Crusaders (need to have a good name for this soon)

Again I'm board on wanting to be involved. Likely collabing midway with someone (or two) who could use the help . :)

bartekko also volunteered to collab with one or two tracks.

are we still going with 2 tracks per or just 1? ONE sounds more sane. We cna always do a series of compilations if the idea takes off.

I consider joining. I'm just not sure if I can create my track quickly/pony related enough.

That sounds about right. Again, this can always change if the majority of the group falls behind schedule.

I kinda think this makes more sense. Although I have two WIPs I could be doing, I really only think one of them is any good :/

I dunno we'll see. Apparently the deadline for a rough draft is in 3 weeks? Is that from today?

Any requirements for how long/short a song needs to be? Like perhaps it has to be at least 3 minutes or something similar.

And I apologize if I'm asking anything that was previously addressed in the older thread, but who/where do we submit our rough/final drafts?
Soundcloud
Tumblr

If you ever need someone to talk to -
Skype: pwnmachine244

That's all I got right now.

Do those tracks need to be pony-themed? If:

Yes, then I will enter only if me and EmpUbermensch manage to finish our collab in time
No, then I'm in! :)

The deadline is three weeks after we have a full roster. When we do, I'll make a post here announcing the official beginning.

And for Matthew_N,
I don't think pony themed should be a necessity. If you could that would be nice, but it shouldn't have to be.

Then I'll be happy to join. Already have one MLP-themed track out. 3 weeks should be more than enough to finish the second one.

I've only been doing music for a month thus considering myself very bad (as previously stated). I do not by any means whish to take a slot from a 'better' artist, nor will I have my feelings hurt if I'm rejected as I know that I'm indeed really bad : P


But, I made this today as an early wip, and was woundering if it is good enough so far?
Oh and 0:42 is just a place holder, was thinking of adding some pony samples around there.


=] Original name, indeed.
I perhaps overdid the disortion ;S

btw, the initial post says "10 artists", while there are 12 signed up and 8 slots remaining. I guess you meant 20, didn't you?
