Poetry Type Music

[Jirohbomb]

Ok, I need some talented artists who will be down to make some music for a poetry jam that I am helping to run. The point of the the poetry jam is the following:
1. Allow people to express thier poetic mind to the Van Nuys community.
2. Bring Poetry into the community of Van Nuys.
What we need is some music to play in the background of the event, and some music to run while people are reciting the poetry. If possible it would be nice to have a main theme for the Poetry Jam made by the Newgrounds users, but its not necessary. Some preferred music styles are Old School, Jazz, and whatever fits in with the cafe scene. There is a deadline, it is on July 10, 2009. We will give credit to you guys during the poetry jam in some way. This would be a very good way to get your music out to all those in the Van Nuys community. If any questions are still on your minds, please post your question in this thread or pm me.

I forgot to mention, this is being endorsed by The Church on the Way"s Living Art Team, which consists of Grafitti artists, and artists in general. If this opportunity to get your music out to the public offends your religious views, feel free to not join. If you want to just see people actually have a good time, and enjoy awesome music from the true definition of underground artists, then feel free to join. If you feel still feel iffy of our motives, please feel free to ask me. We plan to have this event as successful as our graffiti battles (which normally reach about 100 people). Please consider joining this, this is a good opportunity for all.

I'm not trying to hint towards Christian hip hop, we are bringing in people from all walks of life, just like our graffiti battles.

Somehow, when I think truthfully about underground music, Church support never crosses my mind. A large percentage of the world's population is Christian. The Catholic Church is the wealthiest organization in the world. You call that "underground"?

Popular religion will NEVER get rid of counter culture. Every time it devours one culture, another pops up. Don't you see how useless it is?

Go away. Take your sanitary graffiti, your new old school, and your imperial ideals, and leave.

OK, I'm an atheist and all, but you're reacting as if he was trying to push religion down your throat, which he wasn't. He was just asking for music. So chill, man...

Thank you Jeepis that was all I was asking, and Moose, what I meant by Underground was Newgrounds' Audio Artists because nobody knows about them. I wanted this to be a chance for you artists to get a chance to put your music in public in an endorsed event. I also said if your religious views bother you when doing this, feel free not to join, I understand. I am just here asking for music, I never said repent because thou are not holy, I just want music for the event, and I know people here have an amazing talent for it.

Tomorrow I'm going to have the first meeting to present what we are going to do with the event. I have one song to present so far. Please contribute, I was thinking of giving out cds of the songs that were showcased at the event, so this is a good opportunity to get your music known by the general public. As I said earlier, if your religious views make you feel uncomfortable about this opportunity, feel free not to join.
