lol i couldnt produce a well engineered track to save my life, but i'm definately keen to have a go! :D
i like the idea of there being a sample back, but not being restricted to it, and i agree that the vocals should be dry but tuned in the interest of keeping the competition fair for newbies.
all in all, really excited :D

well not every one has replied and given their 2 cents.
but we seriously have to get shit going, 14 pages of chit-chat.
i really do think someone has to compile a sample pack ( i cant i have bad samples, so it woulnt be fair ), a sample pack will test creativity, but making sure the sample pack is too small.
im not really sure about the vocals, yet, we probably have to wait to see what everyone else thinks because its a main part of the comp and if we dont get guys agreeing we will have a gay problem.

I think it might solve time and arguments if we were to just stick to the old rules...

2. The vocals have to be sung by a member of the site, male or female, duet or combination of different singers.
3. The artist of the track will be the producers name, feat. the singers name.
4. The track has to be produced by a member of the site and posted only here.
5. The track can be remixed or further colibrated on by other members of the site if you post the project file.
6. You have 2 months.
7. The winner will be voted by the members of the site.
Here is the link again to the first comp, should answer any questions. http://www.happyhardcore.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=19583 Anyone have a problem with this? To those asking for PM's to let them know when it starts... It starts on 1st of Jan.

Spot on to be honest, with the addition of a sample pack this time though if anyone wants it! I think that pretty much sums up what everyone wants.

Easy to say, nearly impossible to do (within budgetary constraints)
:P

Even the best vocalists can have an off day. Software can't fix everything, and if used too much it turns a vocal to crap, but it can fix the tiny slips without being too obvious. Pop music (top 40) as it is today wouldn't exist without software to make the artists sounds good!
And I like the rules posted. :) They're pretty broad and will allow people to do just about anything.
Please add me to the list of people insterested!

Okay, just to get this straight. The rules now say:
1. The lyrics have to be written by a member of the site. Publishing rights will goto the creators of the lyrics.
2. The vocals have to be sung by a member of the site, male or female, duet or combination of different singers.
Does that mean that everyone has to have their own vocalist? I think this might be putting a lot of people off. Also the rule that states "there will be a sample pack available but you will not be restricted to using it" is pretty confusing.

LOL i don't know how you managed to get so confused :P The vocal thing means that there is one vocal that everyone uses, and it is written and sung by a member of this site. The same thing means that there is a sample pack available for those who want or need it, but do not have to be limited to that, everyone can use whatever samples they like :P
