MLR Album Event: The EDM Orchestra

[Cii]

That is quite a few judges... Maybe stop adding them
Haha, in comparison to the amount submitting.

If someone really wants to judge, they can take my place...Otherwise I'll still judge just to help or something...

[Nine Volt]

Well, I'm gonna have to drop out of this
Unless I can make a good track that fits the requirements in a week while still juggling other projects as well as school, but I don't think I can do it. Sorry

[Navron]

I'm too going to have to drop on this one. Currently on a military detachment.

[NegaNote]

Alrighty. I'll take you guys off the participant list. Sad to see you guys can't do this.

Question on this: Length. I'm currently working on finishing a song called "Nightmare Overdrive" for this. It's a 80's sound song with 50/50 electronic/orchestral. The problem is, it's 8 minutes long. It's not pointlessly 8 minutes long, I promise. I just need to know if you would still accept it based on the length.

Hello, MLR. I've been thinking of a type of album, that I really haven't seen much of an idea before.

The idea is that the songs in the album are a mix of EDM and classical progression. That is, full classical songs, with essentially an entire orchestra-sized library of synthesizers & classical instruments, or classical songs with only synthesizers as instruments (not including percussion), or songs with general EDM progression and amount of instruments, but only using classical instruments; really, anything with a 50/50 balance between characteristics of EDM and characteristics of classical songs.

It's meant so that classical composers stretch their boundaries to include elements of EDM, and EDM producers stretch their boundaries to include elements of classical. People stretch their comfort zones and try something new; it can be a learning experience for everyone.

No deadline until at least 5 people join in. DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS IS DECEMBER 1ST. Anyone can submit any number of songs, but they must remember that there will be quality control, and that if they submit multiple songs, there is no guarantee that all of them will get in.

If you want to submit, put a wav & an mp3 in dropbox, mediafire, etc. - really, anything works, as long as you can rely on it still being there when I get it - and email me a link to both at [email protected]

Of course! Any length is just fine.

[NegaNote]

Just a reminder, guys! The deadline is in 2 days!

[MRPPony]

Damn, why didn't I find out about this a month ago?! >_<
Oh well, best of luck to everyone. Still gotta try this idea out though. EDM and orchestra can go so well together. Example, Hybrid! >=P

[PHacksaw]

I'm gonna have to drop out for sure. I can't figure out what to make.

[NegaNote]

Alright. Taking you out of the list. Sad to see you go D:

[NegaNote]

Guys, submissions are needed today! If you're sure you can't get it in by 12:00 AM EST, try to get it in by midnight in your time zone!

[NegaNote]

Well, seeing as I have only 2 submissions, I think I'm going to extend the submission deadline to December 1st. You guys have an extra month now. Yeah.

[Cii]

Well, seeing as I have only 2 submissions, I think I'm going to extend the submission deadline to December 1st. You guys have an extra month now. Yeah.

*January 1st
...Aheh.

[Sonarch]

Well, I wish I had been able to participate, but I'm excited to see what comes of this event. And now I really want to do a song with this idea.

[MRPPony]

Extended eh? I thought a bunch of people submitted but since you've extended it, I'm in. Already working on a 3 part orchestral trance of Crystal Empire. I'll PM you when I'm finished ^_^

[NegaNote]

Well, seeing as I have only 2 submissions, I think I'm going to extend the submission deadline to December 1st. You guys have an extra month now. Yeah.

*January 1st
...Aheh.

Herp derp, you're right. The deadline is January 1st.


....I feel so stupid right now. xD

[Aoshi]

Anything come back on this?

[NegaNote]

Nope. :/

[Veerexx]

What's happening?

[DijiTwitch]

Damn I didn't even know about this until now. Anything still happening?

[NegaNote]

You guys can do this if you want. I haven't updated this since there wasn't much interest. Though eif enough people submit stuff, I'll still make an album

[Sonarch]

Yeah, I really want to see something come of this.

[airdropmusic]

I would totally sign up, but I'm too late.

FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

EDIT: Wait this is a thing still? OMFG YES I'M TOTALLY IN YAY

A demo of this kind of stuff I've done before

[DijiTwitch]

I'm going to make something really, really weird for this, oh hell yeah.

[MilesTiden]

Oh, this is still a thing? Great, I'll totally whip something up for this! Cinematic dubstep, maybe?
