I missed out on uploading tracks during weeks 1 and 2 due to unresolvable hardware issues which saw me having to purge virtually my entire system and start again from scratch (via a bank loan).
"Team XX"??
Bleurgh.
I've had to totally reformat and reinstall everything once now and still a member of team xx
so bleurgh indeed.
sucks about the bank loan though.

oh cool. glad to see the failed uploader getting included!
I think the themes can be a good launchpad for ideas, but certainly don't have to be participated in to make a great track
if the themes are fun i go with them. if not fuck it.
some of the projected themes are technically impossible for me. the 4 part harmony idea seen above for instance. effectively i have about a 3 voice synth. realistically its less than this and my control isn't that great for sequencing. i guess if i did some multitracking i'd be able to do more i don't so whatever.
way to fucking serious on here wtf guys.
I tried the theme and my track was incoherent. Oh well. Singer/songwriter track it is :-)
coherence lol
I just realized that I do not own a good mic for recording. Hope you guys are okay with crappy sound, looks like I'll have to improvise and use my headset as a makeshift mic.
Edit: Also bouncy balls don't bounce on piano strings as well as I thought they would.
so cool
I second the motion for drones or possibly aleatoric.
Dice, or it doesn't happen.
drones or aleatoric!!
my vote is for aleatotic or drones
heh. i made the list.
Use only 4 notes from a chromatic scale to make a song.
i'm doing this. battle derby is silly
i did a four notes song last night using a modular synth.
set the quantized out of my sequencer to play only 4 notes then ran that into an oscillator as well as a sample and hold then to an oscillator. oscillators are as tuned as i could get them. i've never bothered trying to do tuned stuff and think i need to calibrate them so they don't wobble.
such a cool idea!
