5th Place: 5 points

2nd Place: 20 points
1st Place: 25 points

hum...ok,I'll pick this idea from gregaaron 89 and give now the final results with bjra's consent

1º

10SCC - First Second, by Mid-Night Type: LoopGenre: House

with 45 points

2º

FXUEM10scc: Make them Electro, by Fxuem Type: LoopGenre: House

with 30 points

3º

JD - 10SecElectroHouseLoop, by SupJD Type: LoopGenre: House

with 25 points

there will be no number 4 or 5 , since to enter in a consent of who should have the spots will consume too much time, since this contest already as consumed so much time the organizers decide it to decide to move on
I'm sorry for all the problems the judging cause, I hope to next time be better define the way of evaluation

FXUEM10scc: Make them Electro, by Fxuem Type: LoopGenre: House

you just putted the guys up in your first place, now he will never be judge :P
still....I'm glad your judging, that was some nice "reviewing" you made there, so good job
I guess mid-night, is going to win, no? I mean he is the one with the highest average when it comes to judge choice, if I'm not mistaken

Mature up a little bit, or shut the fuck up.
You're a judge.

Deliberately arguing with the people that submitted the music not only makes you look like a total jackass, you don't even know what the hell you're talking about.

arguing come with all that its in music or any other type of competition in life, you should know that

I guess I have to ask for forgiveness if I seem to make myself look like an jackass, that wasn't my intention, all I want Its for this competition to go right -_- , clarifying the rest about the way I was thinking was my purpose, I guess messed things up... sorry Fxuem and Mid-Night

Keep your smart ass remarks under your breath, where most the shit you've said belongs.

you didn't need to go that far, a simple, get a grip on yourself, would be enough

I guess I learned never to do false choices and to be clear right on my first remarks and make them sound as less insulting as possible, hope I settled all the score with you guys

I will revoke all my choices I made, and negate my judge right, if no other person decides to become a judge and present there choices by tomorrow by 12 AM( in ng time, in other words, USA time), all the ranks will be attributed by dubas choices, that my final act
I guess I don't deserve to judge this anymore, since due to my epic screw up here

Why post a fake #1 choice? is what I'm saying is stupid.

guess you didn't read my post that well.... what I'm saying, is that all of the judges have their own number 1, being critic or not critic, for me there is no point in choosing a number one that is most likely to change afterwards, my real 1º will be what all the judges will decide together, since their is too many good submission for a man alone decide

remember that reality bends at the will of the "strongest", lets see who will be the "strongest" judge.............................or something like that

Then I wouldn't even post about it. Wait until the final decision is made.

That's just stupid to do.

Seriously.

the final decision!? wait until the final decision?, now that a stupid thing to say, those weren't even near the final results, why should one of the judges wait to make their choices? you know the rest of the judges insn't gonna think like you, so we just have to discuss this through
those were just my choices, didn't you see the other judges choices, you seem happy with the first <-<

I just think the first spot should be decided heads on, arguing with others, see who really deserve it, everyone as a different opinion on that, so for me deciding my real nº 1 choice only comes after
I guess the rest of the spots are also as important.....
but what made you said that this was a stupid thing to do eh?

Why not, I know it's a little late at this point but it's really unfair that there are only 2 judges! DarkRider2000 said we could enter

just do it dude, welcome to the judging panel, fxuem as showed his opinion already, I guess your entitled to your own, yes, I guess if fxuem doesn't mind, he is now part of the judges team :P, of course he won't participate in the contest......will he join?.........

Then your outlook is flawed, that loop sounds more like a joke than anything professional.
The sound levels are all messed up, and the melody is almost an exact replica of xKore's I <3 You.

It's your personal opinions on people, and not the actual quality of the submissions that I see going on here.

I never actually got to ear xKore's "I <3 you" but when I chose his submission, I wasn't really hoping you guys would get it, I only chose him because its from HIM, I didn't really saw his submission as the number 1 in professionalism, I just wanted to later on decide the first spots in a frontal discussion of the judges, to make it right and fair, I'm quite surprise you guts didn't figure at lest the HIM part

interesting, that fxuem chose those guys :P, but I guess he did gave a little opinion why, even so, the weeble sub isn't what I have in mind of a good catchy and professional sounding electro house :P

nah, it still hasn't ended, come on dude lets clean up this mess and give those spots away to those who deserve it

At 4/4/09 09:02 PM, Mid-Night wrote:

Bjra's really isn't all that professional.

well he might not be the most professional around, but he was the man to get all the points around to get chosen by me, now there is only the 3 spots left to get define here......

1º choice

Dirty Bass in your FACE, by Bjra Type: LoopGenre: House

well as for me, this is professional, catchy and as one heck of vocals work XD
the volume is nice and the sound goes smoothly and it fits perfectly under the ten seconds that were first regulated, so extra points there

2º choice

Battery Depleted, by Rawmin Type: LoopGenre: House

its has that electro charm all over it, the melody just gets stuck in your head, the choice do an awesome house combination

3º choice

10SEH Brando - So Far So Good, by Dj-Brand0 Type: LoopGenre: House

just another great loop by Brando, its professional and catchy as hell, it just deserves to be on everybody's top 3 choice on electro loop =)

4º choice

JD - 10SecElectroHouseLoop, by SupJD Type: LoopGenre: House

its as a nice variation that keep the person earing the melody over and over hardly getting tired of it and as that originality while keeping the electro house essence on it, good job dude :D

5º choice

10 Seconds in Heaven, by Hellstick Type: LoopGenre: House

its what I would call a true electro house experience, follows the style in a good way, loops awesome and repeats itself over and over(in a professional way :P)

after this, 2 spots are already secured

brando secures the 3º place, both of the judges think he is the man for that spot

with SupJD happens the same, only its for the 4º place

the rest of the spots will later be discussed by both judges
if you don't agree with the spot attributed to any submission please say it so and will discuss it so

I'll add 2 more then, if you want a top 5

thats all? don't want to show what were the 3 ones you liked the best( this is the judge choice part you know, without critics to judge them, if you get the point)
I guess mine are the ones that are left, I'll give them shortly, but I hardly have the time to do the same as duba, private stuff to do, what to say more :P

At 4/3/09 02:47 AM, darthduba wrote: Darthduba's choice

yeah that's great and all, but are these your choice to the top or your choice by taste? remember that you have to do 10 choices for the top loops and your personal choice(only 3 :P)

also I'm cutting the top entries number to 5, 10 would already be filled by half of the loops that entered, so 5 will be more competitive

At 4/2/09 01:32 PM, darthduba wrote: I suggest the judges post there discussion in the tread instead of in PM's. It is fair against the competitors. i'll post my favs later today

yes we should post here what we choose and why,
so just post your choices to each top and your "judge choices", I'll see if I post mine as fast as I can and then we work them out, there are so many too choose from :P

I thinks its a crap idea:S I doubt pople would listen to ALL of the loops, to make a fair descission. Even IF they would alot of them would probably vote for someone, because that person asked them to...

ADD THIS! Thx :)

why the bastard XD, right on the last day, well good luck to all, lets see who will win over the judges minds and ears ;3

also I was thinking if a "average score match" in the type of judging....don't get it? :D here is how it would work....
both judges evaluate the loops by ranks( ex : 1º, 2º....23º, 24º) then we will do an average of both rankings and get the final result
ex: darkrider rank of choice for the song: 1º
darthduba: 5º
average : 3º

what do you guys think?

the contest is officially closed, now its time for the judging to start =)

a week is left guys to close the entry to this thing, common more submission please.....and judges :P this contest take all !!!!...... in a certain way ;P

so quick question, i know i need the file in midi format to import it if i wanted to do a remix of something, but where can i get good midi files or is there a way to convert itunes (mp3) into midi?
thanks

try seeing something here or just do a search about the converter, since as far has I know its possible to convert mp3 to midi, but didn't really explore much about that :P

about the midi, try searching in the forums, or then try asking here( if you get to nowhere :P) or here( since you use fl, but its mainly for its technical part >->

fl is not one of them, comparing to the other intefaces in the rest of the programs, Fl is way complicated by first(of course :P), garage band is kinda hated here, since usually peole who use it,use the loops to make songs :P......
besides you could answer yourself in here
it gives a small description about many programs and also gives their price

that's were you are wrong, darthduba joined the judges and gave up on his entry, he is now part of the judging comity, so less competition but more judging ;P

Eather that or you didn't get accepted (which i doubt:)

well his submission did pass the regulated time(even the 2 second plus due to the error :P) but fine, he is ZENON and all so he gets in, and just to show my apologies here is his submission, alone ;)

Descending--_--house Loop, by ZENON Type: LoopGenre: House

also the rules XD

rules :

when and how to put the song

all submissions must be presented in the thread before April 1st

and all must have been submitted to newgrounds, all outer content will be ignored and won't be classified
Song style :

it as to be electro!!!!!

and 14 seconds or shorter - I will give a two sec limit(so it can go until 16) but that is due to the contest error that as appeared in the other contest, so if it goes after that, the entry will not enter in the contest

Parameters evaluated :

catchyness

professionalism

humor - this will only give extra points, the other two are above when it will come to judging

The top

Top Overall

it will have 10 spots to fight for....

Judge(s):

DarkRider2000

darthduba

to be a judge please pm the judge DarkRider2000, so that it can be decided your entry or not

Organizer(s):

Bjra

DarkRider2000

The reason to not have other tops

the top catchy and top professional will not be judged since the professionalism and catchyness are already rated in top overall

the top electro is obvious, since there is no other type of sound allowed, it would be stupid to make it :P

when are the results coming :

in the week after the deadline is reached

if nothing happens to one of the judges and impossibility the judging to go normal, if that such happens the judging will be postpone until the judges gets ready

if the judge won't be ready in a reasonable time, the judging will go to the rest of the judges

if you got more questions:

I will post this rules every time a new page is made in the thread, so that lazy newcomers who don't read the other pages get to notice what to do

if you are still not clarified on something, please say it so, and I will respond to it in the next rules post

I hardly seem to find a audio person that will answer to all reviews and post in the RRC >-> that bad for me, since I got the highest response rate and I don't want to lose it, many other review music that the artist don't even seem to look at the reviews, expect the bad ones........musicians should care more about the review givers, I'm glad I've seen a few in ng ;3
