As the previous thread showed that there were quite a few people interested, I think it's time to get this thing rolling. The next Salt World Troubadours album is...
SALT WORLD'S GOT TALENT!!

So what does that mean theme wise? Uh... I don't know... do whatever the hell you want. Just show us how talented you are at something. I've found that people are usually a lot more willing to cooperate in these things if they can do whatever.
For right now let's say that the due date is 2 months from today, so the due date is
March 4th
Can that change? Yeah absolutely. That just seemed like enough time. I understand that people have work and college to do so if that's a bad time just let me know.
So let's get this thing started! You can PM me your songs when you are done.

yay someone's using my idea ^_^

I would suggest a length limit at kinda around 5 minutes max, a few seconds over is no biggy. This is something we've had before in troubs, and is something I strongly agree with, on a personal level I find it hard to do tracks less than 7 minutes so i don't wnna clog up time with my nonsense, and i like the challenge :3

[Puppet Master]

Oh yeah, that's a good idea. I usually don't write anything over 4 minutes so that didn't even occur to me. 5 minutes should be enough time to establish yourself on the album.

Also, I think for right now we should also have a 1 song per person limit. If it gets to the point where we are at the deadline and we only have like 4 or 5 songs then we can open it up to more.

ok guys i am on this. electrofuck go.

[Pilsen]

anything?

[Farren]

if its march then I'll record one of the things I wrote for this. Could still use editing though.

[ATARI]

no jmickles allowed

[Biggles]

should we aim for a talent show kind of vibe? like "look mum, no hands!" type stuff?

i'm in anyway, but this will determine whether i do something incredibly gimmick-oriented or just whatever i feel like.

[Pilsen]

I've never been part of this, should it be recorded? Could I use voice samples etc.. I know how to play guitar and I could sing pretty well but I don't have any good recording mic.

[Puppet Master]

Hero Bash, as long as you have some recording it can be entered. If it's not the best quality of recording it's really not a big deal. The only thing I think should be avoided is like straight up MIDI file.

[dicko]

if i had an ounce of musical ability i would definitely do something for this..

stickied though

[ATARI]

has anyone made anything for this yet?

[Farren]

I wrote two songs I'm gonna do when I get home and put em here if they come out right.

[Puppet Master]

Cool, let's hope people (including myself) find the time and remember this is going on.

[ATARI]

i have already forgotten

[Terrorantula]

Maybe I'll do something.

[Madolah]

What Atari said. haha

No I've been making work on IndyMix, and also working on learning on production , plus its RPM challenge month (look it up) so ill at least have A track for this

[Puppet Master]

I'm just as bad as everyone else. I've kind of been focusing on (losing miserably at) RMN's music competition. I'm not saying we're going to already increase the deadline, I'm just saying it probably will happen.

[ATARI]

i'll have something for you guys by the end of month

[Mince Wobley]

I submitted two things. Use them no matter what happens next.
