pointless! it should be only 808, 909 and 303 (or vsti/samples of same)

that was the point of the challange!

[BloodStar]

yep, there was an attempt for such competition,. but it died somehow :D

any fx processing allowed? or simply dry 909,808,303,

Ah Baz, long time no see you knacker. Okay, well we'll go with that then- effects are allowed.

Can you make it sticky with the updated rules please?

[rhythmtech]

but im up for the competition...

[DannyBlack]

ah kewl baz. Sorted- so are we all clear on the rules and the date yeah?

[vinvanman]

Deadly idea, its a pitty i can't join you lot, i've no production equipment at the moment, dam it :(

[Jay Pace]

[vinvanman]

now that's thinking outside the (roland) box :)

[DannyBlack]

ah sickner, vin! Well providing this works well try a few more comps- its good for practice and good fun.

[curly]

sorry folks, I dont have time to do this, started a new job last monday, 14 hour days for the next 12 weeks, plus 4 hours driving a day, looks like music is going to have to take a back seat for a bit.

tbh im gutted as this feels like BOA is getting it's community spirit back, and i cant join in the fun,

but i will get time to listen to all the entrys.

[DannyBlack]

Im struggling with mine. " of our housemates have exams so I can't make any ****ing noise... some bollocks.

[Jay Pace]

Deadline extension anyone?

I'm thinking end of May...

[DannyBlack]

YES PLEASE! ok- end of May is the final deeadline.

[BloodStar]

:-)

[DannyBlack]

I was thinking for some kind of voting system. annon like. So set up a soundcloud account which we all have access to to upload the tracks and then we vote on the one we rate best.

A separate thread of course. good idea?

[Electrictribe]

end of may and i'll enter, i have pesky exams too

[DannyBlack]

cool mate! More the merrier!

[curly]

I recon i might find some time before the end of may.

[DannyBlack]

Sweet mate!! Good to hear.

[Jake Conlon]

Interesting....

[DannyBlack]

you on for it Jake?

[Arron C]

Hi,

Just joined the forum so that I can enter the comp. Will be working on an entry with Curly this weekend.

Arron C. Interlect 3000:wink:

[teknorich]

Am looking forward to hearing the entries for this. The record offer from Jay is amazing, so good luck to all of ya!

[DannyBlack]

Hi,

Arron C. Interlect 3000:wink:

Nice one mate! Delighted to have you on board.

[djfilthmonger]

if i can get sumtin together i mite. only really started again first time in a long while

[DannyBlack]

At the end of the day, it's good practise for meeting deadlines and getting stuff together. There will be plenty of good tunes to listen to and get pointers from at the end.

[DannyBlack]

Hows everyone doing?

[Arron C]

Started work on a track but the TB res pot decided to play up, so I had to use conductive paint to repair the damaged area after taking the pot apart. Sounding good though. Using a TR-909 through a Mackie with plenty of effects, limiters and compressors.

A.

[curly]

Will be finished this weekend.

After a few false starts and a trip to Arron C place, where I programed a real 303 for the first time. I decided all the 303 lines I had written in midi were crap, So I have rewtitten yet again using the abl2 sequencer instead.

@ Danny : are you setting up a sound cloud account for this, or are we just going to link to our own?

[J Raninen]

Oh crap, didn't notice this until now...

[DannyBlack]

Curly, yeah mate I will create a soundcloud page later oin and get some art together.

J- all good mate, about 10 days left :-) enter.

I have another comp for next month too. more on that later.

[J Raninen]

Any info on the upload page? I got mine ready and uploaded to my personal Soundcloud pages, but is there a collective upload site for the entries?

[DannyBlack]

Yep, I will post up linkies when I get home mate :-)

[DannyBlack]

What I shall do is create the page and have you all send on your tracks to me via PM. I will upload them and then put them to the vote here- annonymous like so no one knows who did the track and we'll run the votes for a couple of days etc

I have to bow out as I f*cked my USB ports up.

[DannyBlack]

On the page the tracks will be Track A, Track B, Track C etc if you get me.

I want the votres to be done on the merrits of the track and not mates voting for mates- level the field for all.

I shall run a new comp next month too. keep you posted on that.


anyway- 5 days left folks!! COME ON!!!

[Jay Pace]

Argh...

neeed..... more..... tiiiiiiiime
Still, should have summat soon.

Ears are tingling, look forward to hearing the results.

[DannyBlack]

hahaha theres always one!

But- rules are rules, no more extentions. 31/05/10 is the closing date-


To all - please send you entries to me with name etc etc in a Rapidshare file!!

[DannyBlack]

Ok so you can PM me with your entries or you can send them to me here: itsontechnocomp@gmail.com

[DannyBlack]

http://soundcloud.com/its-on-1

[curly]

will upload later on today Danny, just got to choose what one.

I have learnt so much from doing this. It has been well worth the time and effort. Acid is not my normal style, and i stopped playing it about 2003, so it has been fun going back and revisiting.

[DannyBlack]

Thats the idea of it mate. make sure when you send it mate, its sent only to me yeah :-)

Cannot wait to hear this!

[curly]

shame about your usb ports danny. with this comp being your idea and all the work you have put into it.

[DannyBlack]

Well I have a track done, but I can't use my controllers to finish it in a live environment. I will just have to use automation and see what happens. Im going to submit her anyway, she's a wild one for sure.

[DannyBlack]

she's not a winner though. good fun all the same.

[DannyBlack]

Not long now chaps!

[Jay Pace]
