OK,
If someone gives me lyrics, I can have my vocalist record them Thursday night. She is coming over for a 2-day session and I may have time to write the song before then. She is a professional country music singer and she is on my Myspace page. By Friday, I can have the vocals tuned and ready and uploaded to the site.
Since this is a website competition, I've resolved that I will go ahead and do this for free. If someone wants to put together a sample pack, I think this would be cool, but the extra work of putting together a sample pack might not be necessary, since the availability of samples online is pretty much endless.
Does a Friday Dec. 14th Start Date sound reasonable to everyone?? I think this is good timing because this is around the time when people our age take off from school/work, so there will be extra time for everyone to work on their remix.
Let me know if this sounds good, and I will talk with my vocalist.
Mike
it sounds great to me.. but, what about what others think.
but i think it shoudl be a good date.

I don't see a problem with it at all starting then and i can't see why anyone WOULD have a problem with it starting then considering as everyone will get until halfway through FEBRUARY to get it done. Which is plenty of time.
I still maintain that everyone should still be using the same sample packs to avoid advantages/disadvantages. I think as soon as we organise a breakbeat, uk hardcore and a gabber sample pack then this will actually start the ball rolling.
I think each pack should consist of say... 5 drums, 5 closed hats, 5 open hats, 5 snares, 5 claps and a crash or two. Did i miss anything?

Hard2Get - If you could sort the sample pack that'd be great. 
****To those that Have mentioned being able to sort vocals, that would be fantastic! If you're definitely able to do this please let me know on here or by PM.****
not too sure on a 14th start, it may be suitable for people who attend school/college but a lot of us are in full time employment don't forget! I know plenty of us are working on stuff at the mo' that needs finishing up and we need to get samples/vocals sorted for the comp. As well as all that some people will be away for the holidays and/or be spending it with friends, family, girl/boyfriends and just wont find time.
I personally think a 1st of Jan start would be best as this gives people time to get ready and us time to get the comp ready as well...

Starting the competition on the 1st of Januaryt 2008 sounds more than reasonable.

regarding vocals:
whoever writes/records the vocals is it gonna include a midi of a basic chord progression or is it letf to complete interpretation?
Im sweet either way its jsut when harmonies are added to the chorus is struggle to find the right key.... is that just me?

Didn't know that this was confirmed. Excellent mate, merits for all are in the post. :)
Well it looks like we have our vocals then, that's fantastic.
I really think leaving it till after the holidays is the best bet. Asking people to have the required samples and vocals in 4 days time is asking far too much as they're doing this out the goodness of their heart! There is also a couple of members who I think will also want to take part who perhaps haven't seen this yet.
I'll confirm all this in a day or two and tie everything up so we can get all this set in stone.
Thanks again to Ionosphere and Treasure!

I'm the same actually, heh. I'd be there for the first week trying to get the chords right. Is there any chance of a midi for some basic pads being provided? :)

nope, its me too andrew haha!
i mean, i could sure do it, but it would take me a very good day, or 2.
its much easier to have a midi of the chord progressions, any one else agree with me and andrew?

michael mansion: that sounds awesome, thanks!
With that said, you guys are forgetting that he asked for LYRICS - someone needs to write them.
January 1st sounds more reasonable to me, I'm still finishing a track up but it has to be done by NYE so this would be perfect. How long do we get? 2 months?
I don't think it should be a rush, I'm ****ing busy :P
As for the sample pack...come on Orbit1, sort us :D

Ionosphere and Treasure are already, very kindly, taking care of the vocals. Thanks very much for the offer though Michael! Perhaps you would be interested in getting something sorted for the next one though, if we have any writers here that can present something good? It would be nice if we could make these comps a regular thing!
It would be good if the chord midi could be part of the sample pack, yes.
Looks like Hard2Get is sorting the other samples... Still awaiting confirmation though.
